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

objectiveTo study the direct action and physiological role of antimüllerian hormone (AMH) in regulating ovarian follicular development and function in vivo in primates.

designAnimals were assigned to six treatment sequences in a crossover design study. Intraovarian infusion was performed during the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle with agents including: control vehicle; recombinant human AMH (rhAMH); and neutralizing anti-human AMH antibody (AMHAb). Before ovariectomy after the final treatment, the animals received intravenous injections of bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU).

settingNational primate research center. ANIMALS: Adult female rhesus macaques (

interventionsNone.

main outcome measuresCycle length, follicle cohorts, and serum steroid levels were assessed. Ovarian histology, as well as granulosa cell (GC) proliferation and oocyte viability, were evaluated.

resultsIn vehicle-infused ovaries, a dominant follicle was observed at midcycle E

conclusionsAMH enhanced early-stage follicle growth, but prevented antral follicle development and function via its stage-dependent regulation of GC proliferation and oocyte viability. This study provides information relevant to the pathophysiology of ovarian dysfunction and the treatment of infertility.
