The Effect of Selenium on Endometrial Repair in Goats with Endometritis at High Cortisol Levels.
Article in Biological trace element research, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Endometritis is a common postpartum disease of female animals that causes significant losses to the goat industry. High levels of cortisol induced by various stresses after delivery severely inhibit innate immunity and tissue repair. The repair ability of the endometrium is closely related to the reproductive performance of goats. Selenium (Se) is an essential trace element in animals that has powerful antioxidant and immunity-enhancing functions. In this study, we established a goat model of endometritis at high cortisol (Hydrocortisone) levels to investigate the effect of Se (supplement additive) on endometrial repair. The results showed that the clinical symptoms, %PMN in uterine secretions, morphological endometrial damage, and the gene expression of BAX were reduced in the goats with Se supplementation compared with those in the model group. Se increased the gene expression of BCL2, VEGFA, TGFB1, and PCNA and activated the PI3K/AKT and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways in goats with Se supplementation. In conclusion, Se reduced the inflammatory response, increased the proliferation, and decreased the apoptosis of endometrial cells to promote endometrial tissue repair in goats with endometritis at high cortisol levels. It probably achieved this effect of promoting repair by activating the Wnt/β-catenin and PI3K/AKT pathways and affecting the gene expression of VEGFA, TGFB1, PCNA, BCL2, and BAX.
