The Therapeutic Potential of Lactobacillus crispatus for Chronic Endometritis: A Comprehensive Clinical Trial and Experimental Investigation.
Article in Probiotics and antimicrobial proteins, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers.
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.
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
Chronic endometritis (CE) is common in patients with infertility, and it is challenging to treat with antibiotics as bacteria often acquire resistance to the antibiotics, which leads to frequent recurrence of the condition. Probiotics, especially Lactobacillus species, are known for their usefulness in treating reproductive infections. This study evaluated Lactobacillus crispatus chen 01 (L. crispatus chen 01) isolated from healthy women who were 22-30 years old and married with children. In vitro experiments showed that L. crispatus chen 01 inhibited pathogens and reduced inflammation in CE mice by downregulating inflammatory proteins (TLR, MyD88, and p65/p-p65; L + Abx vs M, P < 0.01), improving histopathological features, and inhibiting bacterial growth. It also regulated endometrial processes, such as enhancing embryo implantation (BMP2 and Wnt4, L + Abx vs M, P < 0.01) via the Wnt/β-catenin pathway, leading to increased pregnancy rates (L + Abx vs M, 100% vs 0%) in mice. In clinical trials, L. crispatus chen 01 improved progesterone levels (P = 0.0038), pregnancy rates (C vs Abx + L. c, 76.19% vs 87.18%), and pathological changes in CE patients. The findings from this study identify the administration of L. crispatus chen 01 as a promising intervention for CE that could improve pregnancy rates.
