Biphasic regulation of myogenesis by ALDH2, aldosterone, and oxidative stress.
Article in Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) is a mitochondrial enzyme that metabolizes 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), a lipoperoxidation-derived aldehyde that promotes oxidative stress. ALDH2 is therefore considered part of the antioxidant defense. On the other hand, the hormone aldosterone enhances the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in many cell types. During skeletal muscle development (myogenesis), myoblasts fuse to form multinucleated cells, called myotubes. In the present study, we investigated the potential of ALDH2 to regulate ROS production in C2C12 cells and its effects on myotube formation during early (0-3 days) and late (4-9 days) stages. Western blot results indicate that these cells actually express ALDH2. Interestingly, incubating cells (1.5-24h) with the pro-oxidant compounds H
