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

Steroid myopathy is a well-known adverse effect of glucocorticoids that causes muscle weakness and atrophy; however, its pathogenic mechanism is still unclear. Recently, oxidative stress was reported to contribute to steroid myopathy, but there is no report that actually attempts to measure hydroxyl radical. I developed an animal model of steroid myopathy in rat with dexamethasone (9-Fluoro-11beta,17, 21-trihydroxy-16alpha-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione), and measured hydroxyl radical using the salicylate trapping method. There was significant dose-dependent relation between both 2,5- and 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acids and dexamethasone in the treated group, compared to the control group. These results suggest that hydroxyl radical plays a role in the pathogenesis of steroid myopathy.
