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

backgroundIt has been long known that thyroid hormone regulates placental villi development, which is associated with the occurrence of miscarriage. However, whether abnormal thyroid hormone metabolism and transport in placental villi are involved in miscarriage is still to be verified.

methodsPlacental villi of elective terminations of pregnancies (ETPs) and miscarriage were collected. Proliferative activity and apoptosis of villi trophoblasts and angiogenesis were detected by TUNEL and immunochemistry. The expressions of thyroid hormone receptors (THRs), transthyretin (TTR), monocarboxylate transporter 8 (MCT8), organic anion transporting polypeptides 1A1 (OATP1A1), deiodinase 2 (Dio2) and Dio3 were examined by RT-PCR, Western blot, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence. JEG3 cell was treated with iopanoic acid (IOP), an inhibitor of Dio2 activity, the expressions of Dio2, placenta growth factor (PLGF) and sFlt1 were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot.

resultsCell proliferation was suppressed and apoptosis was increased in placental villi cytotrophoblasts of miscarriage. CD34

conclusionThyroid hormone transport and metabolism in miscarriage were disturbed and may impaired angiogenesis of placental villi, which was associated with the occurrence of miscarriage.
