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

1. The effect of simultaneous application of chronic muscle stimulation and salbutamol on the expression of mRNAs and proteins normally expressed by fast- or slow-twitch fibres was followed and the effects of changes in protein expression on mechanical performance were evaluated. Chronic low-frequency stimulation increased the myosin heavy chain (HC)-I level in the canine latissimus dorsi muscle and simultaneous administration of salbutamol partially blocked this change. Associated with the increase in HC-I level was a decrease in the velocity of shortening at zero load, VMAX. The change in VMAX was partially blocked by salbutamol. 2. Chronic low-frequency stimulation increased the levels of slow-twitch cardiac isoform sarco-/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA2a) and phospholamban mRNA, and SERCA2a and phospholamban protein expression. These changes were associated with an increase in time-to-peak tension and a decrease in fusion frequency. Simultaneous administration of salbutamol blocked these changes in protein expression and muscle mechanics. Chronic stimulation of latissimus dorsi decreased the levels of the fast-twitch isoform of sarco-/endoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase (SERCA1a) and increased SERCA2a protein expression and decreased calcium uptake rate by muscle homogenates. These changes were blocked by salbutamol. 3. The loss of latissimus dorsi muscle weight by chronic stimulation was partially blocked by salbutamol.
