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

Uterine M1/M2 macrophages activation states undergo dynamic changes throughout pregnancy, and inappropriate macrophages polarization can cause adverse pregnancy outcomes, especially during the peri-implantation period. Our previous studies have confirmed that Cytochrome P450 26A1 (CYP26A1) can affect embryo implantation by regulating uterine NK cells and DCs. The aim of this study was to investigate whether CYP26A1 regulates the polarization of uterine macrophages in early pregnancy. Here, we observed that
