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.
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
purposeThe aim of this paper is to study the impact of heparin on the response of human endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) to interleukin (IL)-1β during decidualization in vitro.
methodsESCs were isolated from hysterectomy specimens of premenopausal women undergoing hysterectomy for benign reasons; decidualized in vitro and incubated in parallel with unfractionated heparin or tinzaparin; and stimulated with IL-1β at days 0, 3, 6, and 9 during decidualization. IL-6, IL-11, and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) were analyzed using ELISAs and real-time RT-PCR. Cell viability was determined by a fluorometric assay.
resultsIL-1β dose-dependently stimulated IL-6, IL-11, and LIF in distinct patterns in ESCs during decidualization. Unfractionated heparin as well as tinzaparin attenuated the IL-1β-mediated induction of IL-6, IL-11, and LIF on protein and messenger RNA (mRNA) levels. The relative effects of heparin and tinzaparin were getting more pronounced during the time course of decidualization.
conclusionsUnfractionated heparin and the low molecular weight heparin tinzaparin have modulating effects on IL-1β-induced endometrial cytokines of the IL-6 family during decidualization. These effects of heparins beyond their classical anti-coagulatory properties might have implications on the regulation of endometrial receptivity and early implantation.
