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

After denervation, mRNA levels of the jun and fos protooncogenes and of the muscular differentiation factors myoD1 and myogenin are increased. Here, immunohistochemistry was used (a) to show that this increase in mRNA is followed by an increase in the transcription factor proteins, and (b) to determine which cell populations in skeletal muscle express these factors after denervation. Rat diaphragms were denervated and analyzed after periods of 90 min-8 days. An increase in Fos and Jun as well as MyoD1 and Myogenin immunoreactivity was found after 2-2.5 days of denervation. Fos, MyoD1, and Myogenin immunoreactivity was mostly confined to muscle cell nuclei, whereas Jun antibodies stained muscle cell and some interstitial cell nuclei. A selective expression of any of the four transcription factors in muscle cell nuclei closely associated with motor endplates could not be detected in either denervated or innervated muscle at any time point examined, indicating that synaptic and extrasynaptic muscle cell nuclei are activated simultaneously after denervation. These results suggest that a genetic program which includes protooncogenes and myogenic differentiation factors is activated in skeletal muscle after denervation.
