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

During gestation, transport by the placenta is solely responsible for nutrient supply to the developing fetus. In this context, calcium (Ca2+) transport machinery of the placenta thus represents the primary tissue site for regulating fetal Ca2+ homeostasis. In humans, the transplacental movements of Ca2+ increase dramatically during the last trimester of gestation, when fetal skeletal mineralization is at its highest. However, little is known about the exact mechanism of transport. Evidence suggests that some developmentally expressed cytosolic Ca(2+)-binding proteins (CaBPs) have an important role in regulating or shuttling cytosolic Ca2+ since they are endowed with a high affinity for Ca2+ (approximately 10(6) M(-1)). CaBPs belong to a large family of eukaryotic proteins containing a specific helix-loop-helix structure, referred to as the EF-hand motif, which counts more than 200 members. Several of these CaBPs were identified in the placenta: CaBP9k, CaBP28k, CaBP57k, oncomodulin, S-100P, S-100alpha, and S-100beta. This review discusses the current views in this field to guide future investigations into the localization and functions of CaBPs during Ca2+ intracellular homeostasis in the placenta.
