Article in The Journal of reproduction and development, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is essential for cell growth and differentiation and functions through the IGF2 receptor (IGF2R) to regulate embryonic and placental development. Exosomes that are synthesized and released from cells and play important roles in embryogenesis and placental development rely on the IGF2R for sorting and transport. However, the role of the imprinted Igf2-Igr2r axis and exosomes in the co-regulation of early placental development remains unknown. Cotyledon villi were collected from bovine placentas at different gestational ages, and the localization and expression of IGF2, IGF2R, and exosomal marker proteins were detected. Furthermore, the expression of exosomal marker factors was detected after the expression of IGF2R or IGF2 was inhibited through RNA interference or the addition of inhibitors, respectively. Our results demonstrated that IGF2, IGF2R, and the exosomal markers CD63, CD9, TSG101, and Rab11 are mainly located on the cell membrane of mononuclear trophoblast cells and binuclear trophoblast cells, which make up the cotyledon villi of the bovine placenta. The expressions of IGF2, IGF2R, and the exosomal marker proteins CD63, CD9, TSG101, and Rab11 showed a significant upward trend with increased gestation duration. Additionally, both Igf2r-knockdown and suppressing the expression of IGF2 with chromeceptin (IGF2 inhibitor) led to the downregulation of exosomal marker proteins in both bovine placental trophoblast cells (BTCs) and BTC-derived exosomes. Our study confirmed that the imprinted Igf2-Igf2r axis participates in the early development of cotyledon villi in the bovine placenta by manipulating exosome biogenesis, providing evidence for improving disorders during placental development.
