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

TNF-α is a proinflammatory cytokine that is involved in numerous pathological processes including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In the present study, we used a transgenic mouse model that overexpresses TNF-α in the lung (Tg(+)) to test the hypothesis that chronic exposure to TNF-α (as seen in COPD) reduces skeletal muscle force production and fatigue resistance, particularly under low Po(2) conditions. At 7-12 mo, body and muscle weight of both extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus were significantly smaller in Tg(+) compared with littermate wild-type (WT) mice; however, the body-to-muscle weight ratio was not different between groups. EDL and soleus muscles were subjected to in vitro fatiguing contractile periods under high (∼550 Torr) and low Po(2) (∼40 Torr). Although all muscles were less fatigue-resistant during low Po(2) compared with high Po(2), only the soleus fatigued more rapidly in Tg(+) mice (∼12%) compared with WT at high Po(2). The maximal tension of EDL was equally reduced in Tg(+) mice (28-34% decrease from WT under both Po(2) conditions); but for soleus this parameter was smaller only under low Po(2) in Tg(+) mice (∼31% decrease from WT). The peak rate of relaxation and the peak rate of contraction were both significantly reduced in Tg(+) EDL muscles compared with WT EDL under low Po(2) conditions, but not in soleus. These results demonstrate that TNF-α upregulation in the lung impairs peripheral skeletal muscle function but affects fast- and slow-twitch muscles differentially at high and low Po(2).
