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

problemThe role of eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF5A) in feto-maternal immunotolerance is poorly understood. METHODS OF STUDY: The effects of N1-guanyl-1,7-diaminoheptane (GC7), an inhibitor of eIF5A, on the proportion and function of natural killer (NK) cell subsets were investigated using flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, CCK8 assay, TUNEL assay, DNA fragmentation analysis, mitochondrial membrane potential assay, and Western blotting.

resultsInhibition of eIF5A by GC7 increased embryo loss and reduced the percentage of NK cells in the uterus and spleen. GC7 treatment caused inhibition of NK cell proliferation in a time- and dose-dependent manner. GC7 also induced apoptosis of NK cells. GC7 treatment increased the protein levels of FasL, bax, p53, and cleaved caspase-3. Moreover, GC7 caused loss of mitochondrial membrane potential in NK cells.

conclusionInhibition of eIF5A results in aberrant NK cell function and increased embryo loss.
