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

In recent years, assisted reproductive technology (ART) has developed rapidly with the delay in reproductive age and the rise in infertility rates. During ART, blastocyst quality is a key factor affecting the rate of implantation and clinical pregnancy, and blastocyst formation is dependent on the precise regulation of multiple signaling pathways in preimplantation embryo development. In this review, we systematically analyze the molecular mechanisms of the core pathways, including Hippo, Wnt/β-catenin, FGF, Nodal, and BMP, in blastocyst lineage differentiation and morphogenesis, and assess the feasibility of optimizing in vitro culture by targeting key signaling nodes, as well as provide theoretical support for constructing research models of preimplantation embryos.
