Effect of serial cell passaging in the retention of fiber type and mitochondrial content in primary human myotubes.

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.
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
objectiveThe purpose of the study was to determine the effects of passaging on retention of donor phenotypic characteristics in primary human myotubes.
methodsPrimary muscle cultures and serial passaged myotubes from physically active, sedentary lean, and individuals with type 2 diabetes were established. Maximal ATP synthesis capacity (ATPmax) and resting ATP flux (ATPase) in vivo were measured by (31) P magnetic resonance spectroscopy, type-I fibers and intramyocelluar lipid (IMCL) in vastus lateralis tissue were determined using immunohistochemistry techniques, and oxidative phosphorylation complexes (OXPHOS) were measured by Western immunoblotting. Similar in vitro measures for lipid and type-I fibers were made in myotubes, along with mitochondrial content measured by MitoTracker.
resultsPassage 4 and 5 measures for myotubes correlated positively with in vivo measurements for percent type-I fibers (P4: R(2) = 0.39, p = 0.02; P5: R(2) = 0.48, p = 0.01), ATPmax (P4: R(2) = 0.30, p = 0.03; P5: R(2) = 0.22, p = 0.05), and OXPHOS (P4: R(2) = 0.44, p = 0.04; P5: R(2) = 0.59, p = 0.006). No correlations were observed for IMCL. However, passage 4 measures for myotubes correlated with passage 5 measures for percent type-I fibers (R(2) = 0.49, p = 0.01), IMCL (R(2) = 0.80, p < 0.001), and mitochondrial content (R(2) = 0.26, p = 0.03).
conclusionsMyotubes through the first two passages following immunopurification (referred to as passage 4 and 5) reflect the mitochondrial and type-I fiber content in vivo phenotype of the donor.
