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

Skeletal muscle function crucially depends on innervation while repair of skeletal muscle relies on resident muscle stem cells (MuSCs). However, it is poorly understood how innervation affects MuSC properties and thereby regeneration of skeletal muscle. Here, we report that loss of innervation causes precocious activation of MuSCs concomitant with the expression of markers of myogenic differentiation. This aberrant activation of MuSCs after loss of innervation is accompanied by profound alterations on the mRNA and protein level. Combination of muscle injury with loss of innervation results in impaired regeneration of skeletal muscle including shifts in myogenic populations concomitant with delayed maturation of regenerating myofibers. We further demonstrate that loss of innervation leads to alterations in myofibers and their secretome, which then affect MuSC behavior. In particular, we identify an increased secretion of Osteopontin and transforming growth factor beta 1 (Tgfb1) by myofibers isolated from mice which had undergone sciatic nerve transection. The altered secretome results in the upregulation of early activating transcription factors, such as Junb, and their target genes in MuSCs. However, the combination of different secreted factors from myofibers after loss of innervation is required to cause the alterations observed in MuSCs after loss of innervation. These data demonstrate that loss of innervation first affects myofibers causing alterations in their secretome which then affect MuSCs underscoring the importance of proper innervation for MuSC functionality and regeneration of skeletal muscle.
