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

A previous study showed that female Fos null mice fail to ovulate even when given gonadotropins, suggesting that ovarian expression of Fos is critical for successful ovulation. However, the expression of FOS and function of FOS have not been determined in the mouse ovary. FOS, a member of the Fos family (Fos, Fosb, Fosl1, and Fosl2), functions as a transcription factor by forming a heterodimer complex with a member of Jun family (Jun, Junb, and Jund). This study demonstrated rapid increases in Fos, along with other Fos and Jun family members, after hCG administration in the ovary of immature PMSG-primed mice and after the LH surge in naturally cycling animals. ChIP-seq analysis identified 1965 FOS-binding genes in granulosa cells collected at 3 h post-hCG, including Pgr, Ptgs2, Tnfiap6, and Edn2, genes known to be involved in the ovulatory process. When super-ovulation was induced, the number of oocytes released was significantly reduced in Esr2
