In vivo mouse model of calcific myonecrosis induced by injury.
Article in PloS one, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Skeletal muscle is the major tissue that provides a space and source for bone, which is formed by osteoblasts through the secretion of extracellular matrices, such as type I collagen, and the deposition of hydroxyapatite calcium phosphate crystals. In the present study, we injected notexin, a snake venom, into skeletal muscle to induce local injury. Notexin injection caused local ectopic calcification in muscle fibers within a couple of days, which remained for more than 16 months. In contrast to ectopic bone formation, the damaged muscles after injection of notexin contains neither bone marrow cells, osteoblasts, nor osteoclasts. Histological and chemical analyses of the notexin-induced calcified objects revealed the deposition of stable hydroxyapatite crystals in muscle fibers, which was distinct from ectopic bone formation. We conclude that this in vivo mouse model of calcific myonecrosis induced by injury is useful for studying the molecular mechanisms of and potential therapeutics for calcific myonecrosis.
