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

Ovarian aging poses significant challenges to female fertility and overall health. While whole-grain black rice diet (BRD) has emerged as a promising anti-aging intervention, its translational potential for ovarian health remains underexplored. This study systematically evaluated BRD's effects on ovarian functional decline through single-cell profiling and phenotypic validation. We demonstrated that BRD intervention effectively delays ovarian aging by preserving the ovarian reserve and maintaining hormonal balance, with granulosa cells (GCs) exhibiting the most pronounced responsiveness. Notably, BRD counteracts age-associated reductions in the GCs population and restores ovarian functional capacity. These findings highlight BRD's ability to rejuvenate the ovarian cellular landscape and stabilize aging-related tran-scriptional profiles. Our study provides actionable insights for developing BRD-based nutritional strategies to combat female reproductive aging, paving the way for clinically translatable dietary interventions and functional food innovations targeting the extension of women's healthspan.
