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

The incidence of premature ovarian failure (POF), a condition causing amenorrhea and hypergonadotropic hypoestrogenism in women before the age of 40, has been increasing in recent years. As an irreversible pathological change, improved treatment strategies for this disease are urgently needed. In this study, a type of microRNA (miR-17-3p) was used to guide the differentiation of human-induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells into hormone-sensitive ovarian epithelial (OSE)-like cells in vitro. To prevent their morphological transformation into fibroblast-like cells, MiR-17-3p, a microRNA that suppresses vimentin expression, was transfected into human iPS cells. Subsequently, these cells were successfully induced into OSE-like cells in vitro after treatment with estrogen and cell growth factors. Compared with controls, iPS cells transfected with miR-17-3p expressed higher levels of epithelial markers (cytokeratin 7, AE1, AE3, and E-cadherin) and estrogen receptors (ERα and ERβ) while levels of mesenchymal markers (fibronectin, vimentin, and N-cadherin) lowered after the induction. The human iPS cell-derived OSE-like cells were then injected into cyclophosphamide-induced POF model mice to determine their potential benefit as grafts to repair ovarian tissues. The OSE-like cells survived within POF mouse ovaries for at least 14 days in vivo. Compared with the negative controls, expressions of cytokeratin 7 and ERβ proteins were elevated while fibronectin and vimentin levels in ovarian tissues were downregulated in the OSE-like cell transplantation group. Moreover, the ovarian weight and plasma E2 level increased over time in the transplantation with OSE-like cells, compared with control groups. Hence, we can draw the conclusion that iPS cells can be induced to differentiate into OSE-like cells in vitro.
