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

Sca-1 (stem cell antigen-1) is a member of the Ly-6 family of proteins and regulates cell proliferation, differentiation, and self-renewal in multiple tissues. In skeletal muscle, Sca-1 inhibits both proliferation and differentiation of myogenic cells. Sca-1 expression is dynamically regulated during muscle regeneration, and mice lacking Sca-1 display increased fibrosis following muscle injury. Here, we show that Sca-1 expression is negatively regulated by TGF-β1 and that this inhibition is dependent on Smad3. We demonstrate that levels of TGF-β1 in skeletal muscle rapidly increase on injury and that the majority of this TGFβ1 is produced by infiltrating macrophages. Sca-1 is expressed in multiple cell types, and we demonstrate that TGF-β1 represses Sca-1 expression in T cells and other immune cell populations derived from the spleen, indicating that regulation by TGF-β1 is a general feature of Sca-1 expression in multiple cell types. Elucidation of the mechanisms by which Sca-1 expression is regulated may aid in the understanding of muscle homeostasis, potentially identifying novel therapeutic targets for muscle diseases.
