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

backgroundColony stimulating factor 2 can have multiple effects on the function of the preimplantation embryo that include increased potential to develop to the blastocyst stage, reduced apoptosis, and enhanced ability of inner cell mass (ICM) to remain pluripotent after culture. The objective of the current experiment was to identify genes regulated by CSF2 in the ICM and trophectoderm (TE) of the bovine blastocyst with the goal of identifying possible molecular pathways by which CSF2 increases developmental competence for survival. Embryos were produced in vitro and cultured from Day 6 to 8 in serum-free medium containing 10 ng/ml recombinant bovine CSF2 or vehicle. Blastocysts were harvested at Day 8 and ICM separated from TE by magnetic-activated cell sorting. RNA was purified and used to prepare amplified cDNA, which was then subjected to high-throughput sequencing using the SOLiD 4.0 system. Three pools of amplified cDNA were analyzed per treatment.

resultsThe number of genes whose expression was regulated by CSF2, using P < 0.05 and >1.5-fold difference as cut-offs, was 945 in the ICM (242 upregulated by CSF2 and 703 downregulated) and 886 in the TE (401 upregulated by CSF2 and 485 downregulated). Only 49 genes were regulated in a similar manner by CSF2 in both cell types. The three significant annotation clusters in which genes regulated by ICM were overrepresented were related to membrane signaling. Genes downregulated by CSF2 in ICM were overrepresented in several pathways including those for ERK and AKT signaling. The only significant annotation cluster containing an overrepresentation of genes regulated by CSF2 in TE was for secreted or extracellular proteins. In addition, genes downregulated in TE were overrepresented in TGFβ and Nanog pathways.

conclusionsDifferentiation of the blastocyst is such that, by Day 8 after fertilization, the ICM and TE respond differently to CSF2. Analysis of the genes regulated by CSF2 in ICM and TE are suggestive that CSF2 reinforces developmental fate and function of both cell lineages.
