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

Hybridization in situ with riboprobes to the myosin heavy-chain slow isoform showed that, in the rat soleus muscle, the myosin heavy-chain mRNA was distributed throughout the myofibres. There was greater density of autoradiographic grains in the subsarcolemmal regions of the fibres, but there was also a considerable number of grains in the core myofibrillar region of the fibres. Microdensitometry showed that the grain density in the myofibrillar region was approximately half that in the subsarcolemmal rim; this would correspond to some 70% of the mRNA being present in the myofibrillar region. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that myosin is synthesized on polyribosomes present in the intermyofibrillar cytoplasm.
