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 suboptimal reproductive performance of repeat-breeding (RB) cows is a major challenge for the dairy industry, leading to higher costs, prolonged calving intervals, and reduced productivity, negatively impacting herd productivity and economic viability. Among the associated factors, endometrial degeneration stands out, characterized by the replacement of functional tissue with fibrotic tissue, compromising uterine receptivity. In this context, regenerative therapy using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has emerged as a promising alternative. This study evaluated the effects of intrauterine MSC inoculation in RB cows diagnosed with endometrial degeneration. Nine crossbred cows (Gyr × Holstein) were included and underwent clinical, cytological, microbiological, histopathological, ultrasonographic, and molecular evaluations on day 0 (pre-treatment) and day 30 (post-treatment). The results demonstrated endometrial remodeling, with fibrotic tissue replaced by loose connective tissue, increased vascularization, and the presence of new groups of endometrial glands. Doppler ultrasonography revealed enhanced blood flow of the endometrial mucosa and thickening of the uterine wall after therapy. qRT-PCR analysis indicated reduced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1
