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

Endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) can affect normal sexual differentiation in fish. Foxl2, one forkhead transcription factor, plays an important role in ovarian differentiation in the early development of the female gonad in mammals and fish. How EDCs affect Foxl2 expression is little known. In this study, we isolated a Foxl2 cDNA from the ovary of rare minnow Gobiocypris rarus and examined its expression during early development stages and in different adult tissues. Then, we analyzed Foxl2 expression in G. rarus juvenile following 3-day exposure to 17α- ethinylestradiol (EE2), 4-n-nonylphenol (NP), and bisphenol A (BPA). Alignment of known Foxl2 sequences among vertebrates showed high identity in forkhead domain and C-terminal region with other vertebrate proteins. Quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that Foxl2 expression was linear decrease and cyp19a1a, the downstream target gene of Foxl2, had no correlation with Foxl2 from 18 to 50 days post fertilization (dpf). Among different adult tissues, Foxl2 is mainly expressed in ovary, brain, gill, eye, and male spleen. In the 3-day exposure, the juvenile fish to EDCs, 0.1 nM EE2, and 1 nM BPA significantly up-regulated the expression of Foxl2 gene, while NP had no effect on Foxl2 expression. Altogether, these results provide basic data for further study on how Foxl2 mediates EDCs impact on the sexual differentiation in G. rarus.
