Lysophosphatidic acid as a regulator of endometrial connective tissue growth factor and prostaglandin secretion during estrous cycle and endometrosis in the mare.
Article in BMC veterinary research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundEquine endometrosis is a chronic degenerative condition, described as endometrial fibrosis that forms in the stroma, under the basement membrane and around the endometrial glands. The role of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) in the development of tissue fibrosis varies depending on the organ, and its profibrotic role in mare endometrosis remains unclear. The study aimed to establish the endometrial presence of LPA and its receptors (LPAR1-4), together with its effects on connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and prostaglandins (PG) secretion from equine endometrium under physiological (estrous cycle), or pathological conditions (endometrosis). Mare endometria in the mid-luteal phase (n = 5 for each category I, IIA, IIB, III of Kenney and Doig) and in the follicular phase (n = 5 for each category I, IIA, III and n = 4 for IIB) were used. In experiment 1, the levels of LPA, LPAR1-4 mRNA level and protein abundance were investigated in endometria at different stages of endometrosis. In experiment 2, the in vitro effect of LPA (10
resultsEndometrial LPA concentration was higher in the mid-luteal phase compared to the follicular phase in category I endometrium (P < 0.01). There was an alteration in endometrial concentrations of LPA and LPAR1-4 protein abundance in the follicular phase at different stages of endometrosis (P < 0.05). Additionally, LPA increased the secretion of PGE
conclusionOur data indicate that endometrosis disturbs proper endometrial function and is associated with altered endometrial LPA concentration, its receptor expression and protein abundance, PGE
