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

The recovery from muscle atrophy is impaired with aging as characterized by improper muscle remodeling and sustained functional deficits. Age-related deficits in muscle regrowth are tightly linked with the loss of early pro-inflammatory macrophage responses and subsequent cellular dysregulation within the skeletal muscle niche. Macrophage inflammatory phenotype is regulated at the metabolic level, highlighting immunometabolism as an emerging strategy to enhance macrophage responses and restore functional muscle regrowth. Accordingly, metabolic targets with an emphasis on glycolytic, hypoxia, and redox-related pathways stand out for their role in promoting macrophage inflammation and enhancing muscle regrowth in aging. Here we highlight promising immuno-metabolic targets that could be leveraged to restore optimal pro-inflammatory macrophage function in aging and enhance muscle regrowth following muscular atrophy.
