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

Glands of the uterus are essential for the establishment of pregnancy in mice and their products regulate embryo implantation and stromal cell decidualization critical for pregnancy establishment. Forkhead box A2 (FOXA2) is expressed specifically in the glands and a critical regulator of their differentiation, development and function. Progesterone and FOXA2 regulate members of a serine proteinase gene family (Prss28 and Prss29). Here, CRISPR-Cas9 genome-editing was used to create mice with a heterozygous or homozygous deletion of Prss28 or/and Prss29 to determine their biological roles in uterine function. Female mice lacking Prss28 and Prss29 or both developed normally and were fertile without alterations in uterine histoarchitecture, uterine gland number, or and gene expression. Thus, Prss28 and Prss29 are dispensable for female fertility and do not impact endometrial gland development or uterine function mice.
