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

m6A modification has been shown to play a role in regulating female reproductive diseases. The YT521-B homology (YTH) domain family, including the m6A readers YTHDC1 and YTHDC2, is associated with decidualization during pregnancy. This study aimed to investigate the role of YTHDC1/2-regulated m6A modification in decidualization of endometrial stromal cells (ESCs). We found that YTHDC1 and YTHDC2 were highly expressed in decidual tissues from normal pregnancies. Knockdown of YTHDC1 suppressed cell proliferation and decidualization marker expression in decidual stromal cells (DSCs), whereas overexpression of YTHDC1 enhanced these processes. Mechanistically, YTHDC1 interacted with C/EBPβ via m6A modification and targeted its 3'UTR region. Knockdown of YTHDC1 accelerated the degradation of nuclear C/EBPβ mRNA in DSCs but had minimal effect on cytoplasmic C/EBPβ. Overexpression of C/EBPβ partially rescued the shYTHDC1-induced suppression of cell proliferation and decidualization markers. These results demonstrate that YTHDC1 promotes decidualization and proliferation in DSCs by stabilizing nuclear C/EBPβ mRNA through m6A modification, suggesting a novel therapeutic target for decidualization-related reproductive disorders.
