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

Muscle creatine kinase (MCK) is expressed at high levels only in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissues. Previous in vitro transfection studies of skeletal muscle myoblasts and fibroblasts had identified two MCK enhancer elements and one proximal promoter element, each of which exhibited expression only in differentiated skeletal muscle. In this study, we have identified several regions of the mouse MCK gene that are responsible for tissue-specific expression in transgenic mice. A fusion gene containing 3,300 nucleotides of MCK 5' sequence exhibited chloramphenicol acetyltransferase activity levels that were more than 10(4)-fold higher in skeletal muscle than in other, nonmuscle tissues such as kidney, liver, and spleen. Expression in cardiac muscle was also greater than in these nonmuscle tissues by 2 to 3 orders of magnitude. Progressive 5' deletions from nucleotide -3300 resulted in reduced expression of the transgene, and one of these resulted in a preferential decrease in expression in cardiac tissue relative to that in skeletal muscle. Of the two enhancer sequences analyzed, only one directed high-level expression in both skeletal and cardiac muscle. The other enhancer activated expression only in skeletal muscle. These data reveal a complex set of cis-acting sequences that have differential effects on MCK expression in skeletal and cardiac muscle.
