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

purposeThe study investigated potential correlations between the expression levels of ADAMTS1 and HSPG2 in cumulus cells (CCs) and controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) outcomes.

methodsRT-PCR was used to determine ADAMTS1 and HSPG2 mRNA levels in mice CCs at different timepoints (0, 4, 8, 12, and 16 h) after human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) injection, and in CCs after RNAi treatment. Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) (n = 45) and normal ovulatory controls (n = 103) undergoing IVF/ICSI were recruited. Relative ADAMTS1 and HSPG2 mRNA levels were measured by RT-PCR. Moreover, correlations of ADAMTS1 and HSPG2 levels with COH outcomes were analyzed.

resultsAt different timepoints after hCG treatment, ADAMTS1 mRNA had the highest level at 12 h, whereas HSPG2 showed opposite profiles to ADAMTS1 with the lowest level at 12 h. HSPG2 expression was upregulated after ADAMTS1 RNAi treatment The PCOS group had higher HSPG2 and lower ADAMTS1 expression levels than controls. In normal ovulatory women (control group), a higher expression of ADAMTS1 and lower expression of HSPG2 were associated with more mature oocytes, transplantable embryos, and good quality embryos, whereas higher transplantable embryo rates and good quality embryo rates were obtained only with lower HSPG2 expression. ROC curves showed the co-measurement of ADAMTS1 and HSPG2 had a better predictive power than separate analyses.

conclusionThe dynamic profiles of ADAMTS1 and HSPG2 were inversely correlated in CCs. In PCOS and normal ovulatory patients, higher ADAMTS1 and lower HSPG2 expression levels in CCs were related to better COH outcomes.
