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

purposeThe mouse preimplantation embryo development (Ped) gene product, Qa-2, influences the rate of preimplantation embryonic development and overall reproductive success. Here we investigated the expression pattern of two microRNAs, miR-125a and miR-125b, known to be involved in development in lower organisms, in preimplantation embryos from the two-cell, four-cell, eight-cell, morula, and blastocyst stages of development from the congenic B6.K1 (Ped negative) and B6.K2 (Ped positive) strains of mice.

methodB6.K1 and B6.K2 congenic mice differ only in the absence (B6.K1) or presence (B6.K2) of the genes encoding Qa-2 protein. We analyzed the expression of miR-125a and miR-125b in B6.K1 and B6.K2 preimplantation embryos by using real-time PCR.

resultWe found no variability in miR-125b expression at any developmental stage in both strains. However, miR-125a expression increased during development in both strains and was ten times higher in Ped negative (B6.K1) embryos than in Ped positive (B6.K2) embryos by the blastocyst stage of development.

conclusionOur results show that the absence of the Ped gene profoundly affects the level of a miRNA (miR-125a) known to regulate early development. The implication is that miR-125a is likely involved in the regulation of timing of early development in mice.
