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

The placenta is essential for pregnancy, and its dysfunction can harm both mother and fetus. To better understand placental physiology and its disruption in disease, we employ a multiomics approach (transcriptomics, metabolomics, and proteomics) combined with clinical data and histopathology from 321 placentas across conditions: severe fetal growth restriction (FGR), FGR with hypertension (FGR + HDP), severe preeclampsia (PE), and spontaneous preterm delivery (PTD). Cellular deconvolution reveals FGR + HDP placentas have more extravillous trophoblasts than controls (p < 0.0001). After adjusting for fetal sex and gestational age, we build condition-specific interomics networks and detect communities (a.k.a. subnetworks). In a control community, miR-365a-3p is the most connected node, whereas in FGR + HDP placentas, it is hypoxia-induced miR-210-3p. From this community, we identify a signature containing mRNAs implicated in placental dysfunction (e.g. FLT1, FSTL3, HTRA4, LEP, and PHYHIP), which distinguishes FGR + HDP placentas from those with other conditions, illustrating the power of interomics in understanding obstetric syndromes.
