Effects and Mechanism of AP39 on Ovarian Functions in Rats Exposed to Cisplatin and Chronic Immobilization Stress.

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
objectivesPremature ovarian failure (POF) rat models are essential for elucidating the hormonal and ovarian molecular mechanisms of human POF diseases and developing new therapeutic agents. This study aimed to compare the applicability of chronic immobilization stress (CIS) as a POF model with that of cisplatin and to examine the impact of AP39, a mitochondrial protective agent, on ovarian function in rats treated with cisplatin and CIS.
methodsSixty Sprague-Dawley female rats were divided equally into six groups (10 per group): Control, Cisplatin, AP39, Cisplatin + AP39, CIS, and CIS + AP39. Ovarian dysfunction was induced with cisplatin (3 mg/kg) or CIS. Forced swim test, hormone concentrations, estrous cyclicity, histopathology, follicle counts, and molecular alterations in the ovary and mitochondria were analyzed.
resultsIn the CIS and cisplatin groups, mitochondrial biogenesis, egg quality, hormonal profile, estrous cycle, and folliculogenesis significantly declined. Nonetheless, most of the parameters with undesirable results did not normalize after AP39 administration.
conclusionsThe cisplatin- and CIS-treated rats exhibited unshared deteriorated hormonal pathways and similarly disrupted gene expression patterns. Our current CIS model did not meet the human POF criteria, which include decreased estradiol levels, despite having advantages in terms of ease of modeling and reproducibility and demonstrating pathological changes similar to those observed in human POF. Therefore, rather than using this model as an POF model, using it as a representation of stress-induced ovarian dysfunction would be more appropriate.
