Transgenerational inheritance of diminished ovarian reserve triggered by prenatal propylparaben exposure in mice.
Article in Nature communications, 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
Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is associated with heightened risk of infertility, premature menopause, and various long-term health issues. Our previous research demonstrated a correlation between prenatal propylparaben exposure and DOR in F1 mice. Here, we further reveal that the DOR phenotypes can be transgenerationally inherited in F1-F3 mice, manifested through increased follicular atresia and decreased anti-Müllerian hormone levels. Excessive apoptosis of granulosa cells is found to underlie these pathological processes. By combining diverse sequencing techniques, we identify persistent Rhobtb1 hypomethylation across multiple generations. Further exploration reveals that RhoBTB1 regulates FGF18 via ubiquitination, triggering MAPK pathway activation and subsequent granulosa cell apoptosis. Notably, similar Rhobtb1 hypomethylation patterns are observed in blood samples from DOR patients. Furthermore, intervention with a methyl-donor diet effectively ameliorates DOR phenotypes in F1-F3 offspring. These findings highlight the transgenerational effects of DOR, elucidate its underlying causes and pathogenic mechanisms, and propose potential epigenetic therapy strategies.
