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
backgroundThe extracellular matrix (ECM) of skeletal muscle plays a pivotal role in tissue repair and growth, and its remodeling tightly regulated by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), and inflammatory cytokines. This study aimed to investigate changes in the mRNA expression of MMPs (Mmp-2 and Mmp-14), TIMPs (Timp-1 and Timp-2), and inflammatory cytokines (Il-1β, Tnf-α, and Tgfβ1) in the soleus (SOL) and extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles of rats following acute treadmill exercise. Additionally, muscle morphology was examined using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining. METHODS AND
resultsMale rats were subjected to acute treadmill exercise at 25 m/min for 60 min with a %0 slope. The mRNA expression of ECM components and muscle morphology in the SOL and EDL were assessed in both sedentary and exercise groups at various time points (immediately (0) and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h post-exercise). Our results revealed a muscle-specific response, with early upregulation of the mRNA expression of Mmp-2, Mmp-14, Timp-1, Timp-2, Il-1β, and Tnf-α observed in the SOL compared to the EDL. A decrease in Tgfβ1 mRNA expression was evident in the SOL at all post-exercise time points. Conversely, Tgfβ1 mRNA expression increased at 0 and 3 h post-exercise in the EDL. Histological analysis also revealed earlier cell infiltration in the SOL than in the EDL following acute exercise.
conclusionsOur results highlight how acute exercise modulates ECM components and muscle structure differently in the SOL and EDL muscles, leading to distinct muscle-specific responses.
