Maternal environmental enrichment affects the corpora lutea and progesterone levels in pregnant mice.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: Maternal lifestyle impacts reproductive performance. Previously, we demonstrated that maternal environmental enrichment promotes pregnancy success in BALB/c mice. As progesterone regulates gestation, we decided to study the effect of maternal environmental enrichment on ovarian physiology during early gestation. Methods: For this, six-week-old female mice were housed in enriched or control cages for six weeks and then mated with control fertile males. Females with a mucus plug were returned to their respective control or enriched cages. Pregnant mice were euthanized on day 7 of pregnancy, and ovaries and progesterone levels were investigated. Results: Hematoxylin and eosin slices showed no differences in the area (μm Discussion: Therefore, maternal environmental enrichment regulates ovarian physiology, and this could promote the benefits previously reported.
