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

Endometriosis exhibits unique characteristics, such as fibrosis, resistance to apoptosis, and promotion of cell proliferation; however, its pathophysiology is not fully understood. Recurrence rates after treatment are high, and the progression risk continues until menopause; hence, more effective therapy for endometriosis is needed. CREB-binding protein (CBP)/β-catenin signaling inhibitors have demonstrated antifibrogenetic effects in liver, lung, and skin diseases. The present study evaluated the effects of two CBP/β-catenin signaling inhibitors, ICG-001 and C-82, on the progression of endometriosis using endometriotic cyst stromal cells from the ovary and normal endometrial stromal cells from the uterus. ICG-001 was also evaluated in a mouse model. ICG-001 and C-82 inhibited cell proliferation, fibrogenesis, and cell migration, and promoted apoptosis in vitro. ICG-001 inhibited the growth of endometriotic lesions in the mouse model. CBP/β-catenin signaling plays an important role in the pathophysiology of endometriosis. Inhibiting the CBP/β-catenin signal can be a therapeutic target for endometriosis.
