Analysis of chromosomes and the T helper 17 and regulatory T cell balance in patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
The present study investigated the genetic etiology and possible immunological pathogenesis of recurrent spontaneous abortion by analyzing chromosome abnormalities, and the balance between T helper 17 (Th17) and regulatory T (Treg) cells. A total of 54 patients with recurrent spontaneous abortion were selected. The villus and decidual tissues, and peripheral venous blood were collected from each patient. Villus chromosome analysis was performed by high-throughput gene sequencing. Flow cytometry was used to detect Th17 and Treg cells in patients without chromosome abnormalities (n=30) and the control group (normal pregnancy; n=32). Immunoglobulin (IG) combined with human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (HCG) treatment was given to patients without chromosome abnormalities (n=30). Changes in the expression levels of Th17 and Treg cells before and after treatment were compared with patients with successful pregnancy (n=18). Before treatment, compared with the control group, the proportion of Th17 cells in peripheral blood and decidual tissue was increased and the proportion of Treg cells decreased. After treatment, compared with patients before treatment, the proportion of Th17 cells decreased and Treg cells increased, and the Th17 and Treg cells balance was reversed with a biased towards Treg cells. The present results suggested that the Th17 and Treg cell immune imbalance may be an important immune factor in recurrent spontaneous abortion. IG combined with HCG therapy may improve pregnancy outcomes by reversing the imbalance between Th17 and Treg cells.
