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

Muscle fibrosis is a key pathological feature of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and is closely associated with disease progression. Fibroadipogenic progenitors (FAPs) are major contributors to fibrosis, yet the precise mechanisms remain unclear. To investigate FAP dynamics and lineage specification, we generated dual-reporter mice (PRURD2) by crossing D2.B10-Dmdmdx/J (D2-mdx) mice with FAP and brown/beige adipose tissue (BAT) reporter lines. Corresponding control mice (PRURDBA) were established on the DBA/2J background. At 12 months, heart, diaphragm, and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles were collected for histological analysis. FAPs were isolated via FACS and subjected to single-cell RNA sequencing. PRURD2 mice exhibited increased fibrosis across all muscles compared to controls (
