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

Pituitary gonadotropin secretion is regulated by several pituitary factors as well as GnRH and ovarian hormones. To elucidate the regulatory mechanisms of pituitary gonadotropin secretions, we observed changes in the mRNA levels of pituitary factors, namely annexin A1 (Anxa1) and Anxa5, inhibin/activin subunits, follistatin (Fst), and vitamin D receptor (Vdr), in female rat pituitary glands during the estrous cycle. Additionally, levels of LHβ subunit (Lhb), FSHβ subunit (Fshb), and GnRH receptor (Gnrh-r) mRNA were examined. During proestrus, Anxa1, Anxa5, Vdr, and inhibin α-subunit (Inha) exhibited the lowest levels, while during estrus, activin βB-subunit (Actbb), Lhb, and Gnrh-r were the lowest. Moreover, Fshb exhibited the highest value during metestrus, whereas Fst did not differ significantly. Correlation analyses revealed 16 statistically significant gene combinations. In particular, four combinations, namely Anxa5 and Inha, Anxa5 and Actbb, Inha and Vdr, and Inha and Actbb, were highly significant (P<0.0001), while four combinations, Anxa1 and Anxa5, Anxa1 and Vdr, Anxa5 and Vdr, and Lhb and Gnrh-r, were moderately significant (P<0.001). The remaining eight combinations that exhibited statistical significance were Anxa1 and Inha, Anxa1 and Actbb, Vdr and Actbb, Anxa1 and Fshb, Inha and Lhb, Actbb and Fshb, Actbb and Lhb, and Fst and Fshb (P<0.05). These results highlight strong correlations among Anxa1, Anxa5, Vdr, Inha, and Actbb, thereby suggesting that an interaction among ANXA1, ANXA5, and VDR may lead to further communications with inhibin and/or activin in the pituitary gland.
