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.
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
Ovarian follicles are the fundamental structure to support oocyte development, which provides mature oocytes for offspring. This process requires granulosa cells (GCs) to respond to the midcycle surge of hormones, leading to GC proliferation and differentiation by a series of genes' transcriptional expression changes. Epigenetic mediator, Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 (PRC1) has been reported to function in fetal ovarian development. However, its functional relevance to folliculogenesis and ovulation remains unknown. In this study, we demonstrated that GC-selective depletion of PCGF2, a key component of PRC1, led to the loss of follicles, ovulation defects, and a lengthened estrus cycle, resulting in subfertility in female mice. The expression of PCGF2 is in the GCs of growing follicles and increases after human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) stimulation. PCGF2 bound to the promoter of the key ovulation gene progesterone receptor (
