Effects of Oncostatin M on Invasion of Primary Trophoblasts under Normoxia and Hypoxia Conditions.
Article in Yonsei medical journal, 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
purposeTo investigate the effect of oncostatin M (OSM) on protein expression levels and enzymatic activities of matrix metalloprotainase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 in primary trophoblasts and the invasiveness thereof under normoxia and hypoxia conditions. MATERIALS AND
methodsProtein expression levels and enzymatic activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in primary trophoblasts under normoxia and hypoxia conditions were examined by Western blot and zymography, respectively. Effects of exogenous OSM on the in vitro invasion activity of trophoblasts according to oxygen concentration were also determined. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) siRNA was used to determine whether STAT3 activation in primary trophoblasts was involved in the effect of OSM.
resultsOSM enhanced protein expression levels and enzymatic activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in term trophoblasts under hypoxia condition, compared to normoxia control (p<0.05). OSM-induced MMP-2 and MMP-9 enzymatic activities were significantly suppressed by STAT3 siRNA silencing under normoxia and hypoxia conditions (p<0.05). Hypoxia alone or OSM alone did not significantly increase the invasiveness of term trophoblasts. However, the invasion activity of term trophoblasts was significantly increased by OSM under hypoxia, compared to that without OSM treatment under normoxia.
conclusionOSM might be involved in the invasiveness of extravillous trophoblasts under hypoxia conditions via increasing MMP-2 and MMP-9 enzymatic activities through STAT3 signaling. Increased MMP-9 activity by OSM seems to be more important in primary trophoblasts.
