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

backgroundThe aim of this study is to investigate a new mechanism that may affect spontaneous abortions (SA): Can long interspersed nuclear element-1 (LINE-1) insertions in embryo cells lead to early SA?

methodsThe method involves prospective study on new mechanism of human early SA. Twenty SA tissues and 10 induced abortion (IA) tissues were utilized for this experiment. Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry (IHC), and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction were used to analyze different LINE-1 proteins and mRNA expression between early SA tissues and early IA tissues. SPSS software version 21.0 was used for statistical analysis.

resultsWestern Blot demonstrated that the LINE-1 protein expression in SA tissues (Mean: 60.2%) is higher than in IA tissues (Mean: 30.3%) in 91% of the compared samples. reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction showed that LINE-1 mRNA expression in SA tissues (Mean: 64.2%) is higher than in IA tissues (Mean: 29.2%) in 6 primer pairs in 89% of the compared samples. IHC showed that the LINE-1 protein expression in SA tissues (Mean: 59.2%) is higher than in IA tissues (Mean: 28.8%) in 83% of the compared samples.

conclusionsExpression of LINE-1 in early SA tissues is higher than in IA tissues, LINE-1 may lead to early SA and LINE-1 plays a role in early SA, this shows that a new mechanism may be involved in SA.
