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

The Notch signaling pathway regulates cell invasion, adhesion, proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation via cell-to-cell interactions and plays important physiological roles in the ovary. This review summarizes current knowledge about the Notch signaling pathway in relation to ovarian functions and reveals the potential underlying mechanisms. We conducted an in-depth review of relevant literature to determine the current status of research into the Notch signaling pathway in relation to ovarian functioning and reveal potential underlying mechanisms. The activation of different Notch receptors promotes the formation of primordial follicles and proliferation of granulosa cells and inhibits steroid secretion. Abnormal regulation of the Notch signaling pathway or direct mutations might lead to over-activation or under-activation of the receptors, resulting in Notch upregulation or downregulation. It can also disrupt the normal physiological functions of the ovary. The lncRNA HOTAIR and growth hormones improved premature ovarian failure (POF) and promoted follicle maturation in a mouse model of POF by upregulating Notch1 expression. They also stimulated the Notch1 signaling pathway, increased the level of plasma estradiol, and decreased the level of plasma follicle-stimulating hormone. Thus, Notch1 could serve as a novel therapeutic target for POF. Several studies have reported multiple roles of Notch in regulating female primordial follicle formation and follicle maturation. Direct mutations in Notch-related molecules or abnormal gene regulation in the signaling pathway can lead to ovarian dysfunction. However, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood.
