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

Calcification of dystrophic skeletal muscles was described previously and attributed, among others, to ER-stress, elevated phosphate concentration and chronic inflammation. Tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) is considered an artificial chaperone protecting cells against ER-stress thus could prevent an ectopic mineralisation of soft tissues. Because an enhanced ER-stress is a feature of dystrophic muscles and it promotes soft tissue mineralisation we hypothesised that TUDCA treatment should reduce mineral deposits in dystrophic skeletal muscles, and tested this concept using two mouse models of DMD.
