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 this article I illustrated the use of regenerating human muscle cultures for studying the hereditary human myopathies. Although some of the data are still controversial, they do point up the great potential of this "in vitro system". For hereditary myopathies due to developmentally regulated proteins that are expressed only at a more advanced stage of muscle differentiation, the use of highly differentiated nerve-muscle cocultures might contribute significantly to a better understanding of their developmental pathogenesis. More advanced techniques (permanent human muscle cell lines, heterokaryons, myoblast transfer, gene transfer, myogenic conversion of human non-muscle cells, cybrid clones) may provide a great deal of information at molecular level and may also have practical applications in the diagnosis or even in the treatment of hereditary human myopathies.
