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 the present work we test the hypothesis that sustained transgenic overexpression of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in skeletal muscle prevents age-related decreases in myoplasmic Ca2+ concentration and consequently in specific force in single intact fibres from the flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscle from the mouse. Measurements of IGF-1 concentration in FDB muscle showed higher levels in transgenic than in wild-type mice at all ages. The specific tetanic force decreased significantly in single muscle fibres from old (286 +/- 22 kPa) compared to young wild-type (455 +/- 28 kPa), young transgenic (423 +/- 43 kPa), and old transgenic mice (386 +/- 15 kPa) (P < 0.05). These results are consistent with measurements in whole FDB muscles. The peak Ca2+ concentration values in response to prolonged stimulation were: 1.47 +/- 0.15, 1.70 +/- 0.29, 0.97 +/- 0.13 and 1.7 +/- 0.22 microM, in fibres from young wild-type, young transgenic, old wild-type and old transgenic mice, respectively. The effects of caffeine on FDB fibres support the conclusion that the age-related decline in peak myoplasmic Ca2+ and specific force is not explained by sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ depletion. Immunohistochemistry in muscle cross-sections was performed to determine whether age and/or IGF-1 overexpression induce changes in fibre type composition. The relative percentages of type IIa, IIx and I myosin heavy chain (MHC) isoforms did not change significantly with age or genotype. Therefore, IGF-1 prevents age-related decline in peak intracellular Ca2+ and specific force in a muscle that does not exhibit changes in fibre type composition with senescence.
