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

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) refers to severe decline of ovary function in females which usually leads to infertility. It has been reported that the TMEM150B gene is mostly associated with age at natural menopause, early menopause and POI, but its role in female reproduction remains unknown. In this study, we found Tmem150b was highly expressed in mouse oocytes, but its deletion had no obvious effect on meiotic maturation of oocytes indicated by first polar body emission and spindle morphology. There were also no obvious differences in follicle development and corpus luteum formation between knockout and wild type mice. Finally, knockout of Tmem150b did not affect female fertility and sexual hormone levels. In summary, our results suggest that TMEM150B is not essential for female fertility in mice.
