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
objectiveSuccessful oocyte vitrification (OV) is critical for cryopreservation of the oocytes from female patients with infertility, polycystic ovaries, and gynecologic cancers. Recent evidence suggests that relatively low levels of histone acetylation are critical for maintenance of the maturation capacity of cryopreserved oocytes. However, previous studies have only demonstrated a key role of histone deacetylases (HDAC) 1 and 2 in the cryopreservation of oocytes.
methodsIn this study, we investigated the role of HDAC6 in these settings. We found that mouse oocytes with low HDAC6 levels decreased survival rate, cleavage rate, and blastocyst rate after OV. Bioinformatics analyses were used to predict HDAC6-targeting microRNAs (miRNAs), while the functional binding of miRNAs to HDAC6 mRNA was evaluated by a dual luciferase reporter assay.
resultsAmong all HDAC6-targeting miRNAs, we detected expression of miR-558, miR-527, and miR-762 in mouse oocytes. Specifically, we found that only miR-762 significantly inhibited protein translation of HDAC6 via binding to the 3'-UTR of the HDAC6 mRNA. Transfection of oocytes with HDAC6 or antisense of miR-762 significantly increased the survival rate, the cleavage rate, and blastocyst rate after OV.
conclusionAs a result, our data suggest that induction of HDAC6 levels by miR-762 suppression may improve the current protocol for OV.
