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

Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) regulate proliferation dynamics and cell fate in response to extracellular inputs. It remains largely unknown how CDK activity fluctuates and influences cell commitment during early mammalian development. Here, we generated a mouse model expressing a CDK translocation reporter that enabled quantification of CDK activity in live single cells. By examining pre- and post-implantation mouse embryos at different stages, we observed a progressive decrease in CDK activity in cells from the trophectoderm (TE) prior to implantation. This drop seems to correlate with the available levels of ICM-derived FGF4 as CDK activity downregulation is rescued by exogenous FGF4. Furthermore, we showed that cell fate decisions in the pre-implantation embryo are not determined by the establishment of oscillatory CDK activity or overall changes in CDK activity. Finally, we uncovered the existence of conserved regulatory mechanisms in mammals by revealing lineage-specific regulation of CDK activity in TE-like human cells.
