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
Decidualization plays an important role in the implantation of the embryo, but the molecular action implicated in this process is not completely known. Herein, we found that, compared with the proliferative endometrial tissues, the expression of minichromosome maintenance complex component 6 (MCM6) was markedly decreased in the secretory endometrial tissues. To verify the function of MCM6 in decidualization, in vitro decidualization model was constructed by treating human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) with estrogen (E2) and progesterone (P4). Consistently, MCM6 level was downregulated in E2P4-treated HESCs. Administration of E2P4 accumulated HESCs in G1 cell cycle phase, leading to cell growth suppression. Ectopic expression of MCM6 promoted the transition of G1/S and restored the proliferation of HESCs that were inhibited by E2P4. MCM6 overexpression led to aberrant activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and treatment with ERK agonist Ro 67-7476 restored MCM6 expression and cell proliferation inhibited by E2P4. Our data suggested that MCM6/ERK feedback loop plays a negative role in E2P4-induced decidualization and implies that MCM6 may be a promising target for meliorating uterine receptivity.
