The Z-band lattice in skeletal muscle before, during and after tetanic contraction.
Article in Journal of muscle research and cell motility, 1986. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Electron micrographs and optical diffraction patterns of the Z-band were studied in rat soleus muscle fixed before, during, and after tetanic contraction. We compared the morphology (small square or basketweave pattern) and dimensions of the Z-lattice of control and tetanized muscles near rest length. Z-bands of muscle fixed at rest and of muscle allowed to rest after a tetanic contraction exhibited the small square pattern. Z-bands from muscle fixed during tetanic contraction exhibited the basketweave pattern. Concomitant with the transition to basketweave, we observed an average increase of 20% in spacing between the axial filaments of the Z-lattice. Optical diffraction measurements of the A-band d10 spacing revealed that the Z/A ratio remained constant during the transition. We have modelled the small square to basketweave transformation as resulting from a change of curvature of constant length cross-connecting Z-filaments when the axial filaments increase their separation.
