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

By using a polyclonal antibody raised against smooth muscle Myosin Light Chain Kinase of adult chicken we show that the 135 kDa smooth muscle Myosin Light Chain Kinase isoform is present in neonatal and regenerating rat skeletal muscle, as well as in adult atrial myocardium. No reaction was evident in adult skeletal muscle fibres. In neonatal and in early regenerating muscle smooth muscle Myosin Light Chain Kinase is associated with embryonic myosin as revealed by their co-presence in muscle fibres. Experiments in vitro show the same results in myotubes. In atrial myocardium there is a patchy positivity in certain group of myocytes. Immunoblotting experiments show in muscle cell cultures, in neonatal and in regenerating skeletal muscle a protein band with electrophoretic mobility corresponding to that of smooth muscle Myosin Light Chain Kinase. These results suggest that the expression of smooth muscle Myosin Light Chain Kinase is not fully tissue-specific and that regulation of the contractile machinery could be different during myogenesis and in adulthood, in relation to the peculiar dynamic characteristics of developing muscles.
