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

purposeIt was aimed to investigate the damage caused by VCD toxicity in the ovary, which women working in the industrial field are frequently exposed to, and to show the relationship between gap junction protein, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, which is thought to be effective in the emergence of this damage.

methodsRats were divided into three groups as control, sham, and VCD. Histological stainings were performed for histopathological evaluations in ovary. Serum AMH level was measured with the ELISA. Then, iNOS, caspase 3, connexin 43 protein, and mRNA expression levels were analyzed by immunohistochemistry and RT-qPCR methods.

resultsAs a result of the analyses, different amounts of degenerations such as hemorrhage, vacuolization, and fibrosis were observed in the ovary. VCD group AMH level decreased compared to control. In VCD group, iNOS and caspase 3 expressions increased, while connexin 43 expression decreased.

conclusionsIt was shown that VCD caused damage to all ovarian tissue. Also, it was revealed for the first time that VCD triggered apoptosis by increasing oxidative stress in the ovary and suppressed connexin 43 which was also effective in the survival of granulosa cells. The devastating effect of exposure to occupational chemicals such as VCD on fertility was demonstrated in this study.
