Marijuana use differentially affects cannabinoid receptor expression in early gestational human endometrium and placenta.
Article in Placenta, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Marijuana is one of the most abused drugs among pregnant women leading to maternal and fetal abnormalities. Cannabinoids are the active ingredients of marijuana, which interact with cannabinoid receptors such as CNR1 and CNR2 to activate cellular signaling pathways. Human endometrium and placenta are known to express CNR1 and CNR2 and can respond to cannabinoid signaling. In this study, we show that marijuana use significantly increases mRNA or protein expression of CNR1 and CNR2 in human endometrium from the first and early second trimester pregnancies, with minor effects on placental expression of CNRs.
