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

Primary cell cultures derived from satellite cells of skeletal muscle provide an appropriate in vitro model for proliferating myoblasts and differentiating myotubes for muscle biological research. These cell cultures may consist of harvested cells per animal or of a cell pool made of cells from several animals. However, cell pooling reduces the biological variability of the different cell donors. On the other hand, the use of cell pools offers an opportunity to use less donor tissue and to perform long-term projects with a broad spectrum of analysis and replications. In the literature, information about the donors of cell pools, the procedure used for pooling, and the characterization/validation of cell pools is often lacking. In this study, we established three cell pools consisting of M. rhomboideus or M. longissimus from ten or six piglets, each with one gender and medium birth weight. Real-time impedimetric monitoring was used to evaluate the proliferative growth behavior of myoblasts for the cell pools in comparison to their corresponding unpooled cells over a period of 72 h, with a measurement being taken every 30 min. For each of the tested cell pools, cell index, slope, and doubling time did not differ between the cell pool and the unpooled cells of the donor animals. Differentiation capacity and mRNA expression of PAX7, MYOD and MYOG remained unchanged between the cell pool and the unpooled cells. Current results support that the use of cell pools is an appropriate method to reflect the average proliferative growth behavior of unpooled cells.
