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

Women threatening premature delivery receive synthetic glucocorticoids (sGC) to reduce offspring neonatal respiratory distress. Evidence linking prenatal sGC exposures to adverse cardiovascular outcomes is accumulating. We studied adult baboons, which had been exposed in utero to sGC equivalent to a human therapeutic dose, and compared with age-matched saline-exposed controls (CTR). Magnetic resonance imaging was performed in middle-aged male offspring (∼10.5 yr) and in both sexes at old age (∼16.5 yr) to assess heart structure, function, and paracardial adipose thickness (PAT). Postmortem left ventricular (LV) tissues were analyzed for mitochondrial electron transport chain complex activities and protein expression. In sGC versus CTR males, LV end-systolic (ESSI) and end-diastolic (EDSI) sphericity indexes increased with age (ESSI:
