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

ANXA6 is involved in numerous biological processes; however, its association with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) remains poorly understood. In this study, we observed significant upregulation of ANXA6 expression in decidual macrophages from RSA patients. Functional analysis revealed that ANXA6 overexpression enhanced reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, thereby promoting pyroptosis and upregulating M1 macrophage polarization markers. Mechanistically, inhibition of NLRP3 rescued ANXA6 overexpression-induced elevation of M1 polarization and pyroptosis in macrophages. In addition, inhibition of ROS alleviated the decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, aggravated macrophage pyroptosis, and exacerbated inflammatory response, as well as the promoted macrophage M1 polarization caused by ANXA6 overexpression. Further mechanisms suggest that overexpression of ANXA6 in macrophages could promote the accumulation of mitochondrial ROS and inhibit mitochondrial membrane potential through the NF-κB signaling pathway, exacerbating macrophage pyroptosis and amplifying the resulting inflammatory response, thereby promoting macrophage M1 polarization. Besides, ANXA6 overexpressing macrophages showed an inhibitory effect on trophoblast function
