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

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is the most common lethal genetic disorder of children. The mdx (C57BL/10 background, C57BL/10-mdx) mouse is a widely used model of DMD, but the histopathological hallmarks of DMD, such as the smaller number of myofibers, accumulation of fat and fibrosis, and insufficient regeneration of myofibers, are not observed in adult C57BL/10-mdx except for in the diaphragm. In this study, we showed that DBA/2 mice exhibited decreased muscle weight, as well as lower myofiber numbers after repeated degeneration-regeneration cycles. Furthermore, the self-renewal efficiency of satellite cells of DBA/2 is lower than that of C57BL/6. Therefore, we produced a DBA/2-mdx strain by crossing DBA/2 and C57BL/10-mdx. The hind limb muscles of DBA/2-mdx mice exhibited lower muscle weight, fewer myofibers, and increased fat and fibrosis, in comparison with C57BL/10-mdx. Moreover, remarkable muscle weakness was observed in DBA/2-mdx. These results indicate that the DBA/2-mdx mouse is a more suitable model for DMD studies, and the efficient satellite cell self-renewal ability of C57BL/10-mdx might explain the difference in pathologies between humans and mice.
