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 yak is a large ruminant that lives in the high-altitude and hypoxic environment of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China and typically exhibits limited reproductive capacity, posing a significant challenge to the advancement of animal husbandry in the region. Retinoid X receptors (RXRs), as an important member of the NR superfamily, play a key role in the regulation of reproductive hormone synthesis, follicular development, and embryo implantation. However, there is still a lack of systematic research on the expression characteristics and potential functions of RXRs in the yak's reproductive system. This study characterized RXR expression in ovarian, uterine, and oviductal tissues from three yaks per reproductive phase (follicular, luteal, and pregnancy). Using Quantitative Real-Time PCR Experiments (RT-qPCR), Western blot (WB), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and immunofluorescence (IF), we analyzed RXR mRNA and protein expression and localization. RXR expression varied significantly (
