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

Proper embryo implantation is necessary for a successful pregnancy. In this issue of the JCI, Aljubran et al. identified the cell cycle regulatory protein cyclin A2 (CCNA2) as a factor in supporting embryo implantation and embryo development. Endometrial stromal cells showed higher levels of CCNA2 in patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology who had successful pregnancies. CCNA2 expression correlated with stromal cell proliferation and the expression of steroid hormone receptors for estrogen (ESR1, also known as ERα) and progesterone (PGR). Notably, loss of Ccna2 in mouse models resulted in infertility. The uteri of these mice were hypoplastic with reduced estrogen sensitivity, resulting in the disruption of stroma cell decidualization and loss of embryo viability after implantation. These findings demonstrate the importance of stroma cell proliferation in preparing the uterus for embryo implantation. They also identify CCNA2 as a coregulator of steroid hormone receptor signaling and suggest that impaired uterine stroma can underly early pregnancy loss.
