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

Pathological conditions such as joint immobilization, long-time bed rest, or inactivity may result in disuse-induced muscle wasting and dysfunction. To investigate the effect of dulaglutide, a long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, on disuse muscle atrophy, disuse condition was induced by spiral wire immobilization in C57BL/6 mice and the mice were treated with dulaglutide. Dulaglutide treatment effectively improved muscle function and increased muscle mass compared with vehicle treatment. Dulaglutide inhibited the decrease of muscle fiber size and the expression of atrophic factors such as myostatin, atrogin-1/MAFbx, and muscle RING-finger protein-1 in immobilized mice. In addition, dulaglutide inhibited nuclear factor kappa B activation, leading to a decrease in the mRNA levels of proinflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 in muscle of immobilized mice. Dulaglutide suppressed the expression of apoptotic markers such as caspase-3, cleaved poly-ADP ribose polymerase, and Bax under immobilization condition and increased the expression of heat shock protein 72 (Hsp72), which is related to the amelioration of inflammation and apoptosis during disuse time. Further study showed that dulaglutide could induce Hsp72 expression
