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

Purpose: N-myc downstream-regulated gene 1 (NDRG1) is expressed in various human tissues and plays a role in regulating cellular proliferation, angiogenesis, and hypoxia sensing. However, the role of NDRG1 in the ovary remains poorly understood. Therefore, we investigated NDRG1 expression and the role of NDRG1 in the human ovary. Methods: Follicular fluid (FF) and luteinized granulosa cells were collected from follicles during oocyte retrieval. KGN cells were cultured with cobalt chloride (CoCl Results: NDRG1 protein was expressed in luteinized granulosa cells. NDRG1 concentration was positively correlated with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and progesterone concentrations in FF. CoCl Conclusions: These results indicate that ovarian NDRG1 may play important roles in follicular development, especially in the early luteinization of pre-ovulatory follicles.
