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

Progestins have been recommended for preterm birth prevention in high-risk women; however, their mechanism of action still remains an area of debate. Medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) has previously been shown to significantly inhibit tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα)-induced matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) messenger RNA (mRNA) expression and activity in primary amnion epithelial cells, a process that may lead to preterm premature rupture of membranes. A mechanism that explains MPA's inhibition of TNFα-induced MMP9 mRNA expression and activity in primary amnion epithelial cells is unclear since these cells lack the classic nuclear progesterone receptor but express a membrane-associated progesterone receptor-progesterone receptor membrane component 1 (PGRMC1) along with the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Primary amnion epithelial cells harvested from healthy term pregnant women at cesarean section were treated with PGRMC1 (to knockdown PGRMC1 expression), GR (to knockdown GR expression), or control small interfering RNA (siRNA; 10 nm) for 72 hours, pretreated with ethanol or MPA (10
