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

Mice lacking endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS(-)(/-)) or catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT(-/-)) exhibit a preeclampsia-like phenotype and fetal growth restriction. We hypothesized that a hypoxic insult would result in a more severe phenotype. Pregnant eNOS(-/-), COMT(-/-) and control (C57BL/6J) mice were randomized to hypoxic (10.5% O(2)) or normal conditions (20.9% O(2)) from gestational day 10.5 to 18.5. Hypoxia increased the blood pressure in all genotypes and proteinuria in C57BL/6J and eNOS(-/-) mice. Fetal survival was significantly reduced following hypoxia, particularly in eNOS(-/-) mice. Birth weight was decreased in both C57BL/6J and COMT(-/-) mice. Placentas from COMT(-/-) mice demonstrated increased peroxynitrite. Despite similar hypoxia-induced effects on maternal blood pressure and proteinuria, eNOS(-/-) embryos have a decreased tolerance to hypoxia. Compared to C57BL/6J, COMT(-/-) mice exhibited less severe changes in proteinuria and fetal growth when exposed to prenatal hypoxia. This relative resistance to prenatal hypoxia was associated with a significant increase in placental levels of peroxynitrite.
