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

Hypoxia-induced damage in endometrial stromal cells (ESCs) is an important event in the pathological progression of Endometriosis. It is reported that significant inflammation is induced by hypoxia in ESCs, mediated by serval inflammatory progressions, pathways, or factors. Sitagliptin, an important member of the dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors family and has been widely used for the management of type 2 diabetes. It has been recently reported to exert significant anti-inflammatory effects. Here, we aim to assess whether Sitagliptin possesses a protective effect against hypoxia-induced damages in ESCs. Our findings indicate that exposure to hypoxia significantly increased oxidative stress in ESCs by increasing the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and decreasing the levels of reduced glutathione (GSH), which was ameliorated by Sitagliptin. Additionally, the excessively produced inflammatory mediators, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), prostaglandin E2 (PGE
