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

Given the value of pigs as a large-animal model bridging rodents and humans, a porcine in vitro system for skeletal muscle development is a prerequisite for advancing both fundamental and translational research. Here, we establish a stepwise and high-resolution in vitro fate-map of pig skeletal muscle development from embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Single-cell analysis revealed three "myogenic states" faithfully recapitulating the conserved in vivo developmental trajectory: (1) specification of posterior presomitic mesoderm (PSM), (2) PSM patterning and somitogenesis, and (3) myogenesis from somite. Furthermore, we uncover porcine molecular signatures by identifying CDH15 and ADAM22 as markers for pig ESC-derived myogenic progenitors capable of generating multinucleated myotubes. Altogether, we present a comprehensive in vitro roadmap of pig skeletal muscle development by constructing previously uncharacterized developmental dynamics as a continuum. These findings offer a powerful resource for comparative developmental biology and translational preclinical research.
