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

Cell cultures were established from the skeletal muscle tissue of 6-13 months old rainbow trout and 12-14 months old yellow perch. Approximately 27,000 +/- 5,000 cells/g (trout; N = 5) and 5,000 +/- 1,200 cells/g of tissue (perch; N = 4) were obtained. Isolation and propagation were qualitatively greater for both species when the cells (younger fish producer more cells than older fish) were exposed to DMEM + 15% FBS, rather than L-15 + 15% FBS, at 20 degrees C (trout) and at 24 degrees C (yellow perch). Two morphologically distinct cell types were observed in cultures of both species, some of which eventually formed very small myotubes, which displayed immunocytological reactivity for myogenin, myosin heavy chain, and alpha-actinin; the second population of cells remained unstained. Successful cryopreservation was achieved using a 5% DMSO and 95% serum mixture, but post-thawing viabilities were low 5-27% (trout) and 14-30% (perch). Further research is needed in order to determine cell type specificity of isolated cells.
