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

An Argonaute (AGO) protein within the RNA-induced silencing complex binds a microRNA, permitting the target mRNA to be silenced. We hypothesized that variations in AGO genes had the possibility including affected the miRNA function and associated with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) susceptibility. Especially, we were chosen the AGO1 (rs595961, rs636832) and AGO2 (rs2292779, rs4961280) polymorphisms because of those polymorphisms have already reported in other diseases excluding the RPL. Here, we conducted a case-control study (385 RPL patients and 246 controls) to evaluate the association of four polymorphisms with RPL. We found that the AGO1 rs595961 AA genotype, recessive model (P = 0.039; P = 0.043, respectively), the AGO1 rs636832 GG genotype, and recessive model (P = 0.037; P = 0.016, respectively) were associated with RPL in women who had had four or more consecutive pregnancy losses. The patients with the AGO1 rs636832 GG genotypes had greater platelet counts (P = 0.023), while the patients with the AGO2 rs4961280 CA genotypes had less homocysteine (P = 0.027). Based on these results, we propose that genetic variations with respect to the AGO1 and AGO2 genotypes are associated with risk for RPL, and might serve as useful biomarkers for the prognosis of RPL.
