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

Single-fiber cultures can be used to model satellite cell activation in vivo. Although technical deficiencies previously prevented study of stretch-induced events, here we describe a method developed to study satellite cell gene expression by in situ hybridization (ISH) using protocol modifications for fiber adhesion and fixation. The hypothesis that mechanical stretching activates satellite cells was tested. Fiber cultures were established from normal flexor digitorum brevis muscles and plated on FlexCell dishes with a layer of Vitrogen. After 2 hr of stretch in the presence of BrdU, satellite cells on fibers attached to Vitrogen were activated above control levels. In the absence of activating treatments or mechanical stretch, ISH studies showed 0-6 c-Met+ satellite cells per fiber. Time course experiments demonstrated stable quiescence in the absence of stretch and significant peaks in activation after 30 min and 2 hr of stretch. Frequency distributions for unstretched fiber cultures showed a significantly greater number of quiescent c-Met+ satellite cells than were activated by stretching, suggesting that typical activation stimuli did not trigger cycling in the entire c-Met+ population of satellite cells. These methods have a strong potential to further dissect the nature of stretch-induced activation and gene expression among characterized populations of individual quiescent and activated satellite cells.
