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

Preeclampsia, a disorder of pregnancy, is characterized by increased trophoblast cell death and altered trophoblast-mediated remodeling of myometrial spiral arteries resulting in reduced uteroplacental perfusion. Mitochondria-associated Bcl-2 family members are important regulators of programed cell death. The mechanism whereby hypoxia alters the mitochondrial apoptotic rheostat is essential to our understanding of placental disease. Herein, myeloid cell leukemia factor-1 (Mcl-1) isoform expression was examined in physiological/pathological models of placental hypoxia. Preeclamptic placentae were characterized by caspase-dependent cleavage of death-suppressing Mcl-1L and switch toward cell death-inducing Mcl-1S. In vitro, Mcl-1L cleavage was induced by hypoxia-reoxygenation in villous explants, whereas Mcl-1L overexpression under hypoxia-reoxygenation rescued trophoblast cells from undergoing apoptosis. Cleavage was mediated by caspase-3/-7 because pharmacological caspase inhibition prevented this process. Altitude-induced chronic hypoxia was characterized by expression of Mcl-1L; resulting in a reduction of apoptotic markers (cleaved caspase-3/-8 and p85 poly-ADP-ribose polymerase). Moreover, in both physiological (explants and high altitude) and pathological (preeclampsia) placental hypoxia, decreased trophoblast syncytin expression was observed. Hence, although both pathological and physiological placental hypoxia are associated with slowed trophoblast differentiation, trophoblast apoptosis is only up-regulated in preeclampsia, because of a hypoxia-reoxygenation-induced switch in generation of proapoptotic Mcl-1 isoforms.
