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

backgroundMutations in several translation initiation factors are closely associated with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI), but the underlying pathogenesis remains largely unknown. METHODS AND

resultsWe generated eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5 (Eif5) conditional knockout mice aiming to investigate the function of eIF5 during oocyte growth and follicle development. Here, we demonstrated that Eif5 deletion in mouse primordial and growing oocytes both resulted in the apoptosis of oocytes within the early-growing follicles. Further studies revealed that Eif5 deletion in oocytes downregulated the levels of mitochondrial fission-related proteins (p-DRP1, FIS1, MFF and MTFR) and upregulated the levels of the integrated stress response-related proteins (AARS1, SHMT2 and SLC7A1) and genes (Atf4, Ddit3 and Fgf21). Consistent with this, Eif5 deletion in oocytes resulted in mitochondrial dysfunction characterized by elongated form, aggregated distribution beneath the oocyte membrane, decreased adenosine triphosphate content and mtDNA copy numbers, and excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial superoxide. Meanwhile, Eif5 deletion in oocytes led to a significant increase in the levels of DNA damage response proteins (γH2AX, p-CHK2 and p-p53) and proapoptotic proteins (PUMA and BAX), as well as a significant decrease in the levels of anti-apoptotic protein BCL-xL.

conclusionThese findings indicate that Eif5 deletion in mouse oocytes results in the apoptosis of oocytes within the early-growing follicles via mitochondrial fission defects, excessive ROS accumulation and DNA damage. This study provides new insights into pathogenesis, genetic diagnosis and potential therapeutic targets for POI. KEY POINTS: Eif5 deletion in oocytes leads to arrest in oocyte growth and follicle development. Eif5 deletion in oocytes impairs the translation of mitochondrial fission-related proteins, followed by mitochondrial dysfunction. Depletion of Eif5 causes oocyte apoptosis via ROS accumulation and DNA damage response pathway.
