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

backgroundA new complexing protein-free botulinum toxin Type A (CBoNT) with the same mechanism of action as the botulinum toxin complex onabotulinumtoxinA (OBoNT) and complexing protein-free incobotulinumtoxinA (IBoNT) was recently developed.

objectiveTo compare the local paresis and chemodenervation efficacy of 3 different botulinum toxin Type A preparations in mice. MATERIALS AND

methodsEfficacy and duration of action of CBoNT, OBoNT, and IBoNT after a single intramuscular injection to the right gastrocnemius was evaluated by digit abduction score (DAS) and compound muscle action potential (CMAP) assays.

resultsMouse DAS and CMAP responses were comparable between CBoNT and OBoNT, indicating similar paresis and chemodenervation efficacy, as well as duration of action. Both botulinum toxins showed significantly higher efficacy and longer duration of action than IBoNT. Similarly, mean DAS potency of CBoNT (ED50: 3.85 ± 0.34 U/kg) and OBoNT (ED50: 4.13 ± 0.07 U/kg) were significantly higher compared with IBoNT (ED50: 6.70 ± 0.83 U/kg).

conclusionCBoNT displays the same efficacy as OBoNT as shown by their comparable chemodenervation and local paretic effects, and demonstrates superior efficacy and duration of action compared with IBoNT. Likewise, CBoNT has comparable DAS potency to OBoNT and is superior to IBoNT.
