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

To determine if electrical impedance myography (EIM) technique can still be used safely to monitor muscle in cases of severe dehydration, we measured the electrical impedance at 1 kHz-1 MHz (37 frequencies) of n=8 wild type mice during 48 h of fluid deprivation and compared to the results of n=8 mice that were provided with water ad libitum. Based on the relative change in the R0 (8% p=0.59) parameter from the Cole impedance model, there is a nonsignificant change in regard to the muscle extracellular fluid when compared to the relative change of body weight and body water loss (19.6% p<;0.0001 and 26.1% p<;0.0001 respectively). The negligible changes of the phase at 50 kHz (1% p=0.88) confirm both the muscle fibers structural integrity and viability remained intact for that period of time. Accordingly, EIM can still be used to determine the status of muscle even during profound dehydration.
