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

backgroundThe oviduct (or fallopian tube) plays a functional role in the transportation of gametes and early-stage embryos, serving as a site for fertilization. Any aberrations from the normal functioning of fallopian tube epithelium may lead to diseases, including but not limited to infertility, ectopic pregnancy, and carcinoma. However, little is known about the mechanisms governing oviductal epithelial homeostasis between secretory cells and ciliated cells by miRNAs.

resultsIn this study, we found that the expression levels of miR-34b/c and miR-449a/b/c were positively correlated with the number of ciliated cells. Using the miR-34b/c

conclusionsIn summary, we discovered that ablation of miR-34/449 led to hyperactivation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, which resulted in the differentiation impairment of ciliated cells, thus resulting in infertility in the mice. This study revealed a novel mechanism describing how miR-34/449 affects oviductal ciliated cell differentiation and oviductal epithelial homeostasis through the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and finally affects fertility.
