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

We previously found that cullin 4A (CUL4A) is able to promote trophoblast invasion. However, the role of CUL4A in other trophoblast behavior such as migration and the association with pregnancy disorder remains unclear. In this study, Immunostaining revealed that CUL4A was relatively lowly expressed in placentas from pre-eclampsia patients compared with the normal controls. Spiral arteries and inadequate trophoblast migration remodeling result in poor placental perfusion, which mediated maternal injury and may lead to pre-eclampsia. To confirm CUL4A's function on trophoblast migration, we employed human villous explants culture and trophoblast cell line HTR-8/SVneo migration and invasion assay. According to our data, knocking-down CUL4A expression inhibited villous explant's outgrowth significantly
