Frozen evidence and registration route

This multi-panel view turns the frozen Study Card fields into a visual audit of what is known, what is missing and what must be registered next.

Evidence-to-experiment route

Context

External-evidence audit only; no new biological escalation until the quantitative import is complete.

Perturb

None. This card imports and audits an existing evidence object.

Endpoint

Completeness, reproducibility and claim-ceiling classification of the imported quantitative result.

Infer

Required import field: preserve the source study’s declared inferential unit exactly.

Model

Reproduce the source model exactly when code and inputs permit; otherwise classify as not reproducible.

Predeclared design scaffold

Biological context

External-evidence audit only; no new biological escalation until the quantitative import is complete.

Perturbation modality

None. This card imports and audits an existing evidence object.

Primary endpoint

Completeness, reproducibility and claim-ceiling classification of the imported quantitative result.

Primary estimand

Imported effect estimate with its uncertainty, denominator and exact contrast; no reconstructed estimate is accepted without provenance.

Inferential unit

Required import field: preserve the source study’s declared inferential unit exactly.

Statistical model

Reproduce the source model exactly when code and inputs permit; otherwise classify as not reproducible.

Decision-blocking gap

GAP-09 External quantitative evidence has not been imported and audited

Highest missing evidence layer

L4 dmd functional validation

GAP-02 independent muscle-context perturbation; GAP-03 DMD-relevant functional validation; GAP-07 independent replication

Perturbation-direction rationale

Current selection: not applicable

No new perturbation direction is nominated by an evidence-import audit.

Allowed registered hypotheses: not applicable.

Comparator and controls

Secondary endpoints

State-transition extension

Mechanism hypothesis and registered time axis

Scientific object: perturbation × cell state × disease context × time × phenotype

Required before registration: state the proposed early molecular mediator, the expected cell-state transition and the downstream functional consequence.

6–12 hearly molecular or signalling response

planning default requires assay calibration

24–48 hregulatory program and cell-state transition

planning default requires assay calibration

4–7 ddifferentiation and functional phenotype

planning default requires assay calibration

Cell context fields

Required before registration: healthy, DMD or isogenic corrected. Required before registration: proliferating myoblast, early differentiation, fusion or maturing myotube. Required before registration; preserve donor-specific estimates.

Cell–cell consequence

Current status: not assessed. Future levels: conditioned medium; two-cell co-culture; three-dimensional muscle model; spatial perturbation model.

Blocking factors

Assay QC thresholds

Evidence-import requirements

Prospective planning fields are intentionally not applied: minimally_important_effect, negligible_effect_margin, suggested_sample_size_range, randomisation_unit.

Multiplicity and missing data

Preserve the source family and correction; do not reinterpret an isolated P value.

Define exclusions before unblinding; report all missing units and reasons; do not single-impute primary outcomes without a prespecified sensitivity analysis.

Replication rules

Not applicable unless the imported study reports multiple reagents; if so, preserve reagent-specific results.

Record whether the source result replicates across donors/samples; absence is a limitation, not a negative result.

Stop rules

Time and cost2–10 working days after complete source delivery; planning estimate only. Institution- and assay-dependent; obtain a local itemised quote before registration.
Preregistration statusdraft requires source accession denominator contrast and reproducibility audit
Lifecycle ruleThis draft is editable. Registration requires a timestamp and checksum; a registered revision is immutable and any correction must supersede it.
Escalation ruleRetain, release or formally change the hold only after provenance, independence and negative-evidence gates are audited.
Evidence transitionAuthor report pending import → audited evidence object → governed status decision.
Data-release planRelease the frozen card, protocol identifiers, analysis code, complete denominators and results irrespective of direction; never overwrite the registered card.
Boundary: This Study Card is an evidence-gated design scaffold, not a protocol, power calculation, safety claim, prediction or therapeutic recommendation.
