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

backgroundMyofascial tissue consists of skeletal muscle fibers and the surrounding connective tissue, the fascia with the extracellular matrix (ECM) and the cellular components. It is affected by actively and passively generated mechanical forces. FASCIA: The fascia plays a key role in muscle function and regeneration of skeletal muscles. Mechanical loading leads to functional and structural adaptations of the ECM, and the cells of the fascia are essential for tissue homeostasis in myofascial tissue. The immune cells located in the tissue and the factors released from the ECM and the cells play an important role. THERAPY: Through targeted active and passive mechanical loading, which is tailored to the initial state of the myofascial tissue, determined, e.g., by age and activity level, as well as disease and injury, an acute and chronic improvement in the regeneration of myofascial tissue can be induced. Therefore, mechanical stress adapted to the condition of the myofascial tissue should be part of the regeneration concept.
