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

backgroundDifferentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) and their target mRNAs may lead to alterations in normal physiological status of the tissues and initiate pathological processes. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of the most relevant miRNAs in the eutopic endometrial tissue during the window of implantation in women with endometriosis-related infertility.

methodsIn the study, 76 infertile women with a regular menstrual cycle were recruited from the Center for Reproductive Medicine, Peking University Third Hospital between January 2014 and June 2016. We performed a combined messenger RNA and miRNA microarray and bioinformatics analysis of eutopic endometrium in 6 women with and without endometriosis-related infertility at the time of implantation window. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction arrays were utilized to examine the expression levels of selected miRNAs (from 35 patients with endometriosis and 35 disease-free individuals at different menstrual stages).

resultsFive differentially expressed miRNAs (miR-142-5p, miR-146a-5p, miR-1281, miR-940, and miR-4634) were significantly upregulated, whereas miR-543 was significantly downregulated in the eutopic endometrium during the window of implantation in patients with endometriosis. Further analysis showed that miR-543 was significantly upregulated at the peri-implantation phase compared with that at proliferative phase in the endometrium of disease-free patients (

conclusionsmiR-543 plays an important role during embryo implantation process and is associated with endometrial receptivity. Downregulation of miR-543 may affect embryo implantation, resulting in the pathogenesis of endometriosis-related infertility.
