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

Exosomes are nanoparticles that transfer cargos from donor cells to recipient cells where they elicit changes in gene expression and metabolism. Evidence suggests that exosomes and their cargos are also absorbed from dietary sources such as bovine milk, and bovine exosomes promote the growth of myofibers in murine C2C12 myotube cell cultures. The aim of the current study was to determine whether the dietary intake of bovine milk exosomes alters strength, gene expression and amino acid profiles in murine skeletal muscles. Male and female C57BL/6 mice, age three weeks, were fed an AIN93G-based, exosome and RNA-depleted (ERD) diet for six weeks; controls were fed an exosome and RNA-sufficient (ERS) diet. Variables of feeding behavior, metabolism, grip strength, liver and kidney function, amino acid profiles, and gene expression patterns were analyzed by using metabolic cages, grip strength analyzers, clinical chemistry analyzers, targeted LC/MS-MS, and RNA sequencing analysis. The diets had no effect on food and water intake, respiratory exchange rate, physical activity, grip strength, markers of liver and kidney dysfunction, and amino acid profiles in muscle. Only twelve and nine mRNAs were differentially expressed in skeletal muscle from female and male mice, respectively, fed ERD and ERS diets. The modest effect of the ERD diet on gene expression and levels of free amino acids in skeletal muscle is consistent with observations that bovine milk exosomes and their cargos accumulate in tissues other than skeletal muscle.
