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.
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
The mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) occupies a noteworthy position in the regulation of mitochondrial calcium uptake. This study investigated the effects of MCU modulator-mediated mitochondrial calcium on mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, endogenous enzyme activities, and tenderness during postmortem aging. Spermine, as an activator of MCU, resulted in an increase in mitochondrial calcium levels, not only disrupting mitochondrial morphology but also triggering mitochondrial oxidative stress and downregulation of antioxidant factors. Additionally, the spermine group underwent later activation of calpain and earlier activation of caspases, as well as the myofibril fragmentation index was initially lower and then higher compared with control group, indicating that endogenous enzymes played an indispensable role in different aging periods. Interestingly, the results of the Ru360 (an inhibitor of MCU) group were opposite to those aforementioned findings. Our data provide a novel perspective on the regulatory mechanism of mitochondrial calcium homeostasis mediated by MCU on tenderness.
