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

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is caused by expanded CTG repeats (CTGexp) in the dystrophia myotonica protein kinase (DMPK) gene, and the transcription products, expanded CUG repeats, sequester muscleblind like splicing regulator 1 (MBNL1), resulting in the nuclear MBNL1 aggregation in the DM1 cells. Loss of MBNL1 function is the pivotal mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of DM1. To develop therapeutics for DM1, proper human in vitro models based on the pathologic mechanism of DM1 are required. In this study, we established robust in vitro skeletal muscle cell models of DM1 with patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) using the MyoD1-induced system and iPSCs-derived muscle stem cell (iMuSC) differentiation system. Our newly established DM1 models enable simple quantitative evaluation of nuclear MBNL1 aggregation and the downstream splicing defects. Quantitative analyses using the MyoD1-induced myotubes showed that CTGexp-deleted DM1 skeletal myotubes exhibited a reversal of MBNL1-related pathologies, and antisense oligonucleotide treatment recovered these disease phenotypes in the DM1-iPSCs-derived myotubes. Furthermore, iMuSC-derived myotubes exhibited higher maturity than the MyoD1-induced myotubes, which enabled us to recapitulate the SERCA1 splicing defect in the DM1-iMuSC-derived myotubes. Our quantitative and reproducible in vitro models for DM1 established using human iPSCs are promising for drug discovery against DM1.
