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

Negative energy balance (NEB) during the perinatal period can affect dairy cow follicular development and reduce the fecundity. Non-esterified fatty acid (NEFA) concentration is elevated during NEB, and is known to be toxic for multiple cell types. In the ovary, NEB increased NEFA, and may influences follicular growth and development. However, the effect and mechanism of NEFA on granulosa cells (GCs) in vitro remains unknown. In this study, we found that NEFA dose-dependently induced apoptosis in primary cultured granulosa cells. Mechanistically, our data showed that NEFA significantly increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, resulting in the activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and eventually cell apoptosis in GCs. Moreover, NEFA also increased the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and p38MAPK pathways, upregulated the expression of p53 and potentially promoted its translocation to the nuclear, thus transcriptionally activated Bax, a downstream gene of this pathway. NEFA also promoted nuclear factor E2 (Nrf2) expression and its level in the nuclear. To elucidate the mechanism of NEFA action, N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), a ROS scavenger was used to verify the role of ROS in NEFA induced apoptosis of GCs. NAC pretreatment reversed the NEFA-induced ERS-related protein and apoptosis-related protein levels. Meanwhile, NAC pretreatment also blocked the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and p38 induced by NEFA, and the nucleation of Nrf2 and p53, suggesting that ROS plays a crucial role in regulating the NEFA-induced apoptosis of GCs. Together, these findings provide an improved understanding of the mechanisms underlying GCs apoptosis, which could potentially be useful for improving ovarian function.
