Progesterone inactivation in decidual stromal cells: A mechanism for inflammation-induced parturition.
Article in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 7 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
The process of human parturition involves inflammation at the interface where fetal chorion trophoblast cells interact with maternal decidual stromal (DS) cells and maternal immune cells in the decidua (endometrium of pregnancy). This study tested the hypothesis that inflammation at the chorion-decidua interface (CDI) induces labor by negating the capacity for progesterone (P4) to block labor and that this is mediated by inactivation of P4 in DS cells by aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C1 (AKR1C1). In human, Rhesus macaque, and mouse CDI,
