Estimating Myofiber Size With Electrical Impedance Myography: a Study In Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis MICE.
Article in Muscle & nerve, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to 2 registered trials, which are not on this map. Cited by 19 papers.
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.

Abstract
introductionA method for quantifying myofiber size noninvasively would find wide use, including primary diagnosis and evaluating response to therapy.
methodsUsing prediction algorithms, including the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, we applied multifrequency electrical impedance myography (EIM) to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis superoxide dismutase 1 G93A mice of different ages and assessed myofiber size histologically.
resultsMultifrequency EIM data provided highly accurate predictions of myofiber size, with a root mean squared error (RMSE) of only 14% in mean myofiber area (corresponding to ± 207 µm DISCUSSION: This impedance-based approach provides predictive variables to assess myofiber size and distribution with good accuracy, particularly in diseases in which myofiber atrophy is the predominant histological feature, without the requirement for biopsy or burdensome quantification.
