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

Embryonic and neonatal skeletal muscles grow via the proliferation and fusion of myogenic cells, whereas adult skeletal muscle adapts largely by remodelling pre-existing myofibers and optimizing metabolic balance. It has been reported that miRNAs played key roles during skeletal muscle development through targeting different genes at post-transcriptional level. In this study, we show that a single miRNA (miR-208b) can modulate both the myogenesis and homoeostasis of skeletal muscle by distinct targets. As results, miR-208b accelerates the proliferation and inhibits the differentiation of myogenic cells by targeting the E-protein family member transcription factor 12 (TCF12). Also, miR-208b can stimulate fast-to-slow fibre conversion and oxidative metabolism programme through targeting folliculin interacting protein 1 (FNIP1) but not TCF12 gene. Further, miR-208b could active the AMPK/PGC-1a signalling and mitochondrial biogenesis through targeting FNIP1. Thus, miR-208b could mediate skeletal muscle development and homoeostasis through specifically targeting of TCF12 and FNIP1.
