Extracellular matrix deposition precedes muscle-tendon integration during murine forelimb morphogenesis.
Article in Communications biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The development of a functional musculoskeletal system requires the combination of contractile muscle and extracellular matrix (ECM)-rich tendons that transmit muscle-generated force to bone. Despite the different embryologic origins, muscle and tendon integrate at the myotendinous junction (MTJ) to connect across this interface. While the cell-cell signaling factors have received considerable attention, how the ECM links these tissues remains unclear. Here, we show the 3D distribution of ECM during forelimb development in wildtype (WT) and muscle-less Pax3
