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

It has now been well established that during mammalian muscle development there is a sequential transition of the myosin isoforms, with the developmental isoforms being replaced just before or just after birth by the adult isozymes. In a previous study of human fetal muscle, we demonstrated the differentiation of two fiber populations as early as 15 weeks: one population of large diameter fibers containing predominantly slow myosin heavy and light chains, and another population which stained homogeneously for fetal myosin heavy chain and corresponded to histochemical type IIC fibers. We have carried out an immunocytochemical and biochemical study of human fetal quadriceps between 7 and 40 weeks. A chronology of the changes which occur in the expression of the myosin heavy and light chains is correlated with the results obtained by enzyme histochemistry. Evidence is also presented that in man excessive amounts of thyroid hormone act directly on the muscle, and result in a precocious accumulation of the adult myosin heavy chains and a precocious maturation of the muscle.
