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
In intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) patients, high concentrations of bile acids altered the normal maternal-fetal-unit physiological condition and could bring negative influence on placenta functionality. GABRP is the pi subunit of the gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor (GABA
methodsA total of 27 participants, including 18 ICP patients and 9 healthy pregnancies were recruited according to strict inclusion criteria. Placentas of ICP patients and controls were collected immediately after cesarean section before labor onset. GABRP and autophagic markers expression in placenta were investigated by immunohistochemistry (IHC), RT-qPCR, and Western blot.
resultsThe neonatal birthweight and gestational weeks were significantly lower in severe ICP group, while the hepatic enzymes were elevated in ICP group. Semiquantitative analysis of IHC revealed the AOD of GABRP in severe ICP patients was higher than that in mild ICP patients and control pregnancies. Western blot and RT-qPCR analysis both indicated that the expression of GABRP and ATG14 were significantly elevated in severe ICP patients. Moreover, GABRP was correlated with TBA (r = 0.64,
conclusionThere were elevated expression of GABRP, ATG14 and LC3 in ICP placentas compared with uncomplicated pregnancies. The expression of GABRP was associated with autophagy and was correlated with the TBA levels.
