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

Endometriosis is a hormone dependent disease that often accompanies infertility. At present, the incidence rate of endometriosis is on the rise, but its pathogenesis and the mechanism leading to fertility reduction are still unclear. Here, we report that protein arginine methyltransferase 3 (PRMT3) is crucial for endometriosis. PRMT3 damages the decidualization of stromal cells in endometriosis. Mechanistically, PRMT3 interacts with Forkhead Box O1 (FOXO1) to mediate methylation of its arginine site at position 253, and promotes its degradation while inhibiting its nuclear translocation. Interestingly, the arginine methylation of FOXO1 by PRMT3 inhibits decidualization through oxidative stress. Furthermore, in our animal experiments, we find that SGC707, a PRMT3 inhibitor, inhibits the occurrence of endometriosis, promotes deciduoma formation, and improves embryonic development. Taken together, PRMT3 may be a promising target for treating endometriosis and improving infertility related to endometriosis.
