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

Sporadic inclusion-body myositis (s-IBM) is the most common progressive muscle disease of older persons. Pathologically, the muscle biopsy manifests various degrees of inflammation and specific vacuolar degeneration of muscle fibers characterized by paired helical filaments (PHFs) composed of phosphorylated tau. IBM vacuolated fibers also contain accumulations of several other Alzheimer-characteristic proteins. Molecular mechanisms leading to formation of the PHFs and accumulations of proteins in IBM muscle are not known. We report that the abnormal muscle fibers of IBM contained (i) acridine-orange-positive RNA inclusions that colocalized with the immunoreactivity of phosphorylated tau and (ii) survival motor neuron protein immunoreactive inclusions, which by immuno-electron microscopy were confined to paired helical filaments. This study demonstrates two novel components of the IBM paired helical filaments, which may lead to better understanding of their pathogenesis.
