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

backgroundGermline stem cells are critical for sustaining fertility by balancing self-renewal and differentiation, and are regulated by genetic and epigenetic programs. Although extensively investigated, the rare female germline stem cells (FGSCs) in mammalian ovaries hinder their application in regenerative medicine. The N

resultsHere, we show that knockout of Ythdf2 enhances FGSC proliferation in vitro. YTHDF2 binds m

conclusionsOverall, our study reveals that YTHDF2 intrinsically restrains mouse FGSC proliferation and provides a potential strategy to increase FGSC abundance for its potential clinical application.
