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

backgroundIntrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes; however, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood.

aimsThis study aimed to determine the role of exosomal miR-6891-5p in placental trophoblast dysfunction in ICP and identify new biomarkers for ICP diagnosis.

methodsSerum samples were collected from ICP patients and healthy pregnant women, and serum exosomes were extracted and identified. Fluorescent dye labeling of exosomes and cell-verified cell phagocytosis were performed. In vitro experiments were conducted by adding taurocholic acid to simulate the ICP environment. Cell proliferation and apoptosis levels were detected using flow cytometry and the cell counting kit-8 assay. Mimics were constructed to overexpress miR-6891-5p in cells, and the binding site between miR-6891-5p and YWHAE was verified using luciferase reporter genes.

resultsmiR-6891-5p expression was significantly decreased in serum exosomes of ICP patients. Co-culturing with exosomes derived from ICP patients' serum (ICP-Exos) decreased HTR-8/SVeno cell proliferation and increased apoptosis levels. miR-6891-5p upregulation in HTR-8/SVeno cells significantly increased cell viability and reduced cell apoptosis levels, as determined by the cell counting kit-8 assay and flow cytometry. A double luciferase assay confirmed that miR-6891-5p affected the expression of the downstream YWHAE protein.

conclusionsThis study indicates that serum exosomes from ICP patients can impact the apoptosis of placental trophoblast HTR-8/SVeno cells through the miR-6891-5P/YWHAE pathway and can serve as specific molecular markers for ICP diagnosis.
