1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In this study, various members of the dystrophin family (dystrophin, the short dystrophin product Dp 71, utrophin and DRP2), and different members of the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein (DAG) complex (beta-dystroglycan, alpha-, beta-, gamma- and delta-sarcoglycans) were localized in bovine cardiac muscle using a battery of specific antibodies. We have established that dystrophin is exclusively associated with beta-dystroglycan and both alpha- and delta-sarcoglycans in cardiac muscle cell membranes. In contrast, utrophin is a specific component of intercalated disks together with beta- and gamma-sarcoglycans, while beta-dystroglycan, alpha- and delta-sarcoglycans are not present. Dp 71 is mainly localized at the T tubule transverse area. In dystrophin deficient cardiac muscle, utrophin and beta-sarcoglycan were observed in intercalated disks and at the sarcolemma of each cardiocyte. Our results revealed that complexes of associated glycoproteins differ in cardiac muscle when associated with dystrophin or utrophin. Despite the described sequence homologies between dystrophin and utrophin, the present results indicate that these proteins have different roles in some specific cardiac cell areas.
