Progesterone receptor membrane component 2 regulates the neuronal activity and participates in epileptic seizures in experimental mice.
Article in Ibrain, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
It was found the expression of progesterone receptor membrane component 2 (PGRMC2) in the histone of epileptic mice was lower than that of normal mice. In this study, we found by the immunofluorescence technique, PGRMC2 was expressed in both astrocytes and neurons of the mouse hippocampus. In addition, the seizure latency and seizure grade of mice in each group were observed after stereotactic injection of the PGRMC2 knockdown virus, PGRMC2 overexpression lentivirus, and related null virus into the hippocampus of mice. It was found that the seizure latency of mice in the PTZ + siPGRMC2 group was prolonged compared with the null virus group. The seizure latency was shortened in the PTZ + PGRMC2 group. The number of grade IV and above seizures in the PTZ + siPGRMC2 group was significantly reduced, while the number of grade IV and above seizures in the PTZ + PGRMC2 group was significantly increased. It was found that the nerve cells in the PTZ + siPGRMC2 group were still intact. In the PTZ + PGRMC2 group, the neural cells were damaged, the intercellular space was widened, and the number of cells was reduced. These findings support that PGRMC2 may be involved in epileptic seizures.
