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

Chromogranin A (CgA) is a prohormone initially extracted from the adrenal medulla, however, increased quantities of CgA are secreted by a wide array of human tissues in the course of a variety of disorders. This protein exhibits a number of interesting endocrine and non-endocrine functions. Here we briefly review the possible involvements of CgA in the areas covered by obstetrics and gynecology. Our account indicates the need to verify its association with the intrapartum fetal stress, and the involvement of CgA in the pathomechanisms of obstetric disorders related to placental dysfunction, as well as in the pathogenesis of endometrioid endometrial cancer as a hormonally regulated malignancy.
