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

In sheep production, due to the limitations of breeding conditions, the uteri of ewes are often infected with bacteria, resulting in the failure of embryo implantation or loss, causing huge losses to the sheep industry. Therefore, in this study, by using RT-qPCR, Western blot, and immunofluorescence, we investigated the effects of LPS infusion on the immune microenvironment and endometrial receptivity, which play an important role in the process of embryo implantation in ruminants, during the three critical periods of embryo implantation in sheep. The results showed that LPS infusion at day 12, day 16, and day 20 significantly increased the expression of Th1 cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-8, IL-6), while significantly decreasing the expression of Th2 cytokines (IL-4 and IL-10) and disrupting the expression of implantation factors, such as
