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 neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is essential for transmitting neural stimulus to muscles, triggering muscle contraction. Mitochondria are enriched in NMJ to support the energy needs required for neuromuscular function and stability. Thus, maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis through the clearance of damaged mitochondria, a process known as mitophagy, is vital for preserving neuromuscular health. Here, we highlight the crucial role of muscle PRMT1 in maintaining NMJ and mitochondrial homeostasis via mitophagy regulation. PRMT1 is distinctively expressed in myofibers, accumulating in the postsynaptic area, with its levels upregulated in denervated muscles. PRMT1-ablated muscles displayed disrupted NMJs and an accumulation of abnormal mitochondria, accompanied by increased mitochondrial oxidative stress. Additionally,
