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

In mouse ovaries, liver receptor homolog-1 [nuclear receptor subfamily 5, group A, member 2 (Nr5a2)] expression is restricted to granulosa cells. Mice with Nr5a2 depletion in this cell population fail to ovulate. To determine whether Nr5a2 is essential for granulosa cell proliferation during follicular maturation, we generated granulosa-specific conditional knockout mice (genotype Nr5a2 floxed Cre-recombinase driven by the anti-Müllerian type II receptor, hereafter cKO) with Nr5a2 depletion from primary follicles forward. Proliferation in cKO granulosa cells was substantially reduced relative to control (CON) counterparts, as assessed by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation, proliferative cell nuclear antigen expression, and fluorescent-activated cell sorting. Microarray analysis revealed >2000 differentially regulated transcripts between cKO and CON granulosa cells. Major gene ontology pathways disrupted were proliferation, steroid biosynthesis, female gamete formation, and ovulatory cycle. Transcripts for key cell-cycle genes, including
