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

In the livestock industry, intramuscular fat deposition is a key factor influencing meat tenderness and flavor. Although FOS (Fos proto-oncogene, AP-1 transcription factor subunit) has been implicated in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation, its differential roles in myogenic and adipogenic regulation remain unclear. In this study, we revealed that FOS markedly enhanced myogenic differentiation while inhibiting adipogenic differentiation in muscle stem cells, indicating that it exerts distinct effects on muscle development and intramuscular fat deposition. Mechanistically, FOS modulated extracellular matrix signaling by regulating FAK and PXN phosphorylation, acting as a molecular regulator between the muscle and fat lineages. Furthermore, exon SNPs in FOS were associated with slaughter weight and backfat thickness, and the mutant genotypes weakened its antiadipogenic effect. Collectively, these findings suggest that FOS is an important regulator of myogenic and adipogenic differentiation and is a potential candidate gene for the genetic improvement of meat quality traits.
