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

Pregnancy is a unique condition where the maternal immune system is continuously adapting in response to the stages of fetal development and signals from the environment. The placenta is a key mediator of the fetal/maternal interaction by providing signals that regulate the function of the maternal immune system as well as provides protective mechanisms to prevent the exposure of the fetus to dangerous signals. Bacterial and/or viral infection during pregnancy induce a unique immunological response by the placenta, and type I interferon is one of the crucial signaling pathways in the trophoblast cells. Basal expression of type I interferon-β and downstream ISGs harbors physiological functions to maintain the homeostasis of pregnancy, more importantly, provides the placenta with the adequate awareness to respond to infections. The disruption of type I interferon signaling in the placenta will lead to pregnancy complications and can compromise fetal development. In this review, we focus the important role of placenta-derived type I interferon and its downstream ISGs in the regulation of maternal immune homeostasis and protection against viral infection. These studies are helping us to better understand placental immunological functions and provide a new perspective for developing better approaches to protect mother and fetus during infections.
