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

HOXA10 belongs to the homeobox gene family and is essential for uterine biogenesis, endometrial receptivity, embryo implantation, and stromal cell decidualization. Available evidence suggests that the expression of HOXA10 is dysregulated in different endometrial disorders like endometrial hyperplasia, endometrial cancer, adenomyosis, endometriosis, recurrent implantation failure, and unexplained infertility. The downregulation of HOXA10 occurs by genetic changes in the HOXA10 gene, methylation of the HOXA10 locus, or selected miRNAs. Endocrine disruptors and organic pollutants also cause the reduced expression of HOXA10 in these conditions. In vivo experiments in mouse models and in vitro studies in human cell lines demonstrate that downregulation of HOXA10 leads to endometrial epithelial cell proliferation, failure of stromal cell decidualization, altered expression of genes involved in cell cycle regulation, immunomodulation, and various signaling pathways. These disruptions are speculated to cause infertility associated with the disorders of the endometrium.
