Characterizing pregnancy outcomes in a humanized mouse model of sickle cell disease.
Article in British journal of haematology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Although increased risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes has been well characterized in women with sickle cell disease (SCD), there remains unexplored value in the characterization of a preclinical model which could minimize human risk. This study aimed to characterize pregnancy outcomes in the SCD mouse model with emphasis on analogous clinical correlates and biological contributors. As such, we identified worsened outcomes including reduced litter sizes (haemoglobin HbSS (SS) 5.18 ± 1.25 embryos vs. haemoglobin HbAA (AA) 6.86 ± 1.51**), fetal weight (SS 0.38 ± 0.16 g vs. AA 0.49 ± 0.14 g**), viability of embryos (SS 20.00% interquartile range (IQR) 33.33 vs. AA 100.00% IQR 0.0***) and maternal mortality (SS 7.14% (2/28) vs. AA 0.00% (0/27) odds ratio (OR) = 4.82 ns). We further noted a significant reduction in vascular density and impaired uterine and umbilical artery blood flow within SCD placentae. Assessments of soluble growth factors revealed evidence of angiogenic dysregulation but maintained limited translational utility due to the multiparous nature of mouse pregnancy. These results serve as a cornerstone characterization of pregnancy outcomes in the SCD mouse model while highlighting the implications of placental vascular insufficiency. They further demonstrate both the utility and limitations of the model, emphasizing the need for continued clinical assessment.
