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

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is primarily a motor neuron disorder. Intriguingly, early muscle denervation preceding motor neuron loss is observed in mouse models of ALS. Enhanced muscle vulnerability to denervation process has been suggested by accelerated muscle deterioration following peripheral nerve injury in an ALS mouse model. Here we provide evidence of biochemical changes in the hindlimb muscle of young, presymptomatic G93A hSOD1 transgenic mice. In this report, we demonstrate that cdk5 activity is reduced in hindlimb muscle of 27-day-old G93A hSOD1 transgenic mice. In vitro analysis revealed mutant hSOD1-mediated suppression of cdk5 activity. Furthermore, the decrease in muscle cdk5 activity was accompanied by a significant reduction in MyoD and cyclin D1 levels. These early muscle changes raise the possibility that the progressive deterioration of muscle function is potentiated by altered muscle biochemistry in these mice at a very young, presymptomatic age.
