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

objectiveWe hypothesized that gene transfer of select growth factors to the placenta may enhance placental and fetal growth. Thus, we examined the effect of 8 growth factor transgenes on murine placenta. STUDY

designAdenoviral-mediated site-specific intraplacental gene transfer of 8 different growth factor transgenes at embryonic day (e) 14 was performed. Transgenes included angiopoietin-1, angiopoietin-2 (Ang-2), basic fibroblast growth factor, hepatocyte growth factor, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), placenta growth hormone, platelet-derived growth factor-B (PDGF-B), and vascular endothelial growth factor(121). Fetuses and placentas were harvested at e17 and assessed for survival, gene transfer efficiency, placenta area, and fetal and placental weights.

resultsEfficient gene transfer to the placenta was detected with minimal dissemination to the fetus. Overexpression of IGF-1, PDGF-B, and Ang-2 resulted in an increase in placenta cross-sectional area. Only Ang-2 gene transfer resulted in increased fetal weight, and only Ang-2 and basic fibroblast growth factor resulted in a change in placental weight.

conclusionSite-specific placental gene transfer results in efficient gene transfer with minimal dissemination to the fetus. Adenoviral-mediated IGF-1, adenoviral-mediated PDGF-B, and adenoviral-mediated Ang-2 significantly increase placenta growth.
