NMD-VCell Evidence & Experiment Workbench Audit disease-specific evidence, compare gaps, and freeze the missing test Module: Research Workbench · evidence-to-experiment workflow NMD = neuromuscular disorders

Current limit: disease modules compare measured states and intervention evidence, but none emits a calibrated patient-level prediction. DMD candidate validation remains prospective.

SMA · Spinal muscular atrophy

Human neural intervention-response evidence is separated from residual treated-muscle signals.

Primary reanalysis interpretation

Positive, null and negative axes stay separate.

R6-MO does not globally reverse bulk gene expression (rho +0.10; 16.6% consistent directional reversal among |disease LFC|≥0.5 genes). Source-reported splicing and functional rescue remains separate. OXPHOS and denervation move in expected directions in treated muscle, but all module q-values exceed 0.30 here.

Measured evidence

Patient state, causal/intervention axis and ceiling in one figure.
