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

Amino acids are key regulators of metabolism, their coordinated effects on skeletal muscle signaling and metabolic remodeling under physiological conditions remain incompletely understood. Here, we investigated whether 14 weeks of combined histidine and proline supplementation (HISPRO; 700 mg/kg) enhances skeletal muscle function through metabolic reprogramming in normal ICR mice. HISPRO significantly improved muscle performance compared with the control group, including grip strength, rota-rod, and treadmill. Histological and biochemical analyses revealed a shift toward oxidative muscle phenotype compared with the control group, with larger muscle fibers and succinate dehydrogenase-positive fibers. Consistently, HISPRO promoted mitochondrial biogenesis and oxidative metabolism compared with the control group, as evidenced by upregulation of mitochondrial regulatory genes, mitochondrial DNA copy number, citrate synthase activity, and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) complex levels in skeletal muscles. Mechanistically, HISPRO was associated with activation of the SIRT1-PGC1α-AMPK signaling axis compared with the control group, as evidenced by increased
