Effect of cigarette smoke extract on mitochondrial division in mouse quadriceps femoris cells.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundTo observe the effect of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) on mitochondrial division in mouse quadriceps femoris cells and to explore the potential molecular mechanism of skeletal muscle dysfunction (SMD) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
methodsQuadriceps femoris were cultured, passaged, and stimulated with different concentrations of CSE. We divided cells into four groups (Control, 2.5%, 5%, 10%). The growth of cells, the expression of Dynamin related protein 1 (Drp-1), and apoptosis were observed and evaluated by fluorescence microscopy, RT-PCR, Western blot, and flow cytometry.
resultsThe longer the intervention time, the more obvious the decrease in cell number. In the 5% and 10% groups, the cells became round with gaps. Under an inverted fluorescence microscope, the green fluorescence of cells in 5% and 10% stained with Mito-Tracker Green was significantly less than that of the Control and 2.5%. Red fluorescence was reduced and the green fluorescence was increased in the 5% and 10% stained with JC-1. Flow cytometry analysis showed that reactive oxygen species (ROS) and apoptosis were increased in the CSE intervention groups. In the Control, 2.5%, 5%, and 10%, the levels of ROS were 0.052±0.015, 0.170±0.030, 5.340±0.500, and 24.400±1.900, respectively. The apoptotic rates (%) were 0.270±0.009, 2.650±0.060, 11.850±0.020, and 31.820±1.260, respectively. The relative expression levels were, 0.900±0.093, 1.141±0.099, 1.361±0.034, 2.155±0.092 for DNM1L mRNA, and 0.509±0.008, 0.569±0.028, 0.792±0.048, 0.940±0.062 for Drp-1. There were significant differences in the apoptotic rate, and Drp-1 expression between 5% and 10% compared with the Control and 2.5% (P<0.05).
conclusionsCSE may enhance mitochondrial division of quadriceps femoris cells by up-regulating the expression of Drp-1, affecting cellular energy metabolism and promoting quadriceps femoris apoptosis, ultimately leading to the occurrence and development of skeletal muscle dysfunction in COPD.
