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

Fyn kinase is highly expressed in oocytes, with inhibitor and dominant-negative studies suggesting a role in the signal transduction events during egg activation. The purpose of the present investigation was to test the hypothesis that Fyn is required for calcium signalling, meiosis resumption and pronuclear congression using the Fyn-knockout mouse as a model. Accelerated breeding studies revealed that Fyn-null females produced smaller litter sizes at longer intervals and exhibited a rapid decline in pup production with increasing age. Fyn-null females produced a similar number of oocytes, but the frequency of immature oocytes and mature oocytes with spindle chromosome abnormalities was significantly higher than in controls. Fertilised Fyn-null oocytes frequently (24%) failed to undergo pronuclear congression and remained at the one-cell stage. Stimulation with gonadotropins increased the number of oocytes ovulated, but did not overcome the above defects. Fyn-null oocytes overexpressed Yes kinase in an apparent effort to compensate for the loss of Fyn, yet still exhibited an altered pattern of protein tyrosine phosphorylation. In summary, Fyn-null female mice exhibit reduced fertility that appears to result from actin cytoskeletal defects rather than calcium signalling. These defects cause developmental arrest during oocyte maturation and pronuclear congression.
