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

To assess the ability of the thin-filament regulatory system to control each stretch-activation (SA) event in the fast beating of asynchronous insect flight muscle (IFM), we obtained fast (3.4 ms/frame) and semistatic (> or = 50 ms) x-ray diffraction recordings for IFM fibers from bumblebees (beating at 170 Hz) and compared the results with those acquired in giant waterbugs (20-30 Hz) and crane flies (40 Hz, semistatic only). In contrast to the well-documented large SA force of waterbug IFMs, the SA force of bumblebee and crane fly IFMs was small compared to their large isometric force. In semistatic recordings, step-stretched bumblebee and crane fly IFMs showed smaller net SA-associated intensity changes in reflections that report myosin attachment to actin and tropomyosin movement toward its activating position. However, fast recordings on bumblebee IFMs showed a fast and large temporary reversal of intensities in these reflections, suggesting that the myosin heads supporting isometric force are dynamically replaced by SA-supporting heads, and that tropomyosin moves to and back from its inactivating position in milliseconds. In waterbug IFMs, the fast temporary reversal of intensities was not obvious. The observed rates of the attachment/detachment of myosin heads and the motion of tropomyosin are fast enough for the thin-filament regulatory system to control each SA event in fast-beating insects.
