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

MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNAs that have been widely recognized as key mediators in the epigenetic control of gene expression and which are present in virtually all cells and tissues studied. These regulatory molecules are generated in multiple steps in a process called microRNA biogenesis. Distinct microRNA expression patterns during the different stages of oocyte and embryo development suggest important regulatory roles for these small RNAs. Moreover, studies antagonizing specific microRNAs and enzymes in microRNA biogenesis pathways have demonstrated that interference with normal miRNA function leads to infertility and is associated with some reproductive abnormalities. Endocrine disrupting chemicals such as Bisphenol A (BPA) are synthetic hormone mimics that have been found to negatively impact reproductive health. In addition to their direct effects on gene expression, these chemicals are widely implicated in the disruption of epigenetic pathways, including the expression and activity of miRNAs, thereby altering gene expression. In this review, the roles of microRNAs during mammalian oocyte and embryo development are outlined and the different mechanisms by which endocrine disruptors such as BPA interfere with these epigenetic regulators to cause reproductive problems is explored.
