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

In mammals, blastocyst-stage trophectoderm (TE) contacts the maternal body at the time of implantation and forms the placenta after implantation, which supports the development of the fetus. Studying gene function in TE and placenta is important to understand normal implantation and pregnancy processes and their dysfunction. However, genetically modified mice are commonly generated by manipulating pronuclear-stage zygotes, which modify both the genome of the fetus and the placenta. Therefore, we previously developed TE/placenta-specific gene expression technology by transducing blastocysts with lentiviral vectors. However, the zona pellucida (ZP) needed to be removed before transduction. In this study, we examined various adeno-associated viral (AAV) vectors to develop a new TE/placenta-specific gene transduction method. As AAV1 can path through ZP, we succeeded in trophoblast-specific gene expression without ZP removal. Furthermore, TE cells genetically modified by AAV1-Cre contributed uniformly to the placenta. Our new technology contributes to advances in implantation and placenta research and leads to the development of new assisted reproductive technology.
