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

Human tropomyosin mutations deregulate skeletal muscle contraction at the cellular level. One key feature is the slowing of the kinetics of force development. The aim of the present study was to characterize the potential underlying molecular mechanisms by recording and analyzing the X-ray diffraction patterns of human membrane-permeabilized muscle cells expressing a particular β-tropomyosin mutation (E41K). During resting conditions, the d1,0 lattice spacing, Δ1,0 and I1,1 to I1,0 ratio were not different from control values. These results suggest that, in presence of the E41K β-tropomyosin mutation, the myofilament lattice geometry is well maintained and therefore may not have any detrimental influence on the contraction mechanisms and thus, on the rate of force generation.
