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

Muscle fiber typing is conventionally performed using mATPase enzyme histochemistry on cryostat sections. After pre-incubation of sections at pH 4.3, 4.6 and 10.3, based on the pattern of enzyme reactivity, the fibers can be classified in types I, II (subtypes A, AB and B) and the intermediate C (I and II) fibers. We have attempted to perform fiber typing of human psoas muscle by immunohistochemistry, using monoclonal antibodies R11D10 (specific for cardiac and type I skeletal myosin) and MY-32 (specific for fast muscle fibers) on cryostat as well as on paraffin sections. Staining of consecutive cryostat sections showed that type I fibers are R11D10 reactive whereas type II fibers are MY-32 reactive. Subtyping of type II fibers could not be performed by immunohistochemistry. Quantitative analysis of type I and II fibers showed that enzyme histochemical and immunohistochemical analysis are in close agreement.
