Intravaginal Progesterone Application as an Efficient and Reproducible Tool for Synchronizing the Mouse Estrous Cycle.

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.
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
Purpose: The synchronization of the estrous cycle is crucial for optimizing reproductive procedures and improving experimental consistency in female mice. Traditional progesterone (P4) administration methods, such as oral or subcutaneous routes, have limitations including invasiveness and variable efficacy. We aimed to develop intravaginal P4 application as a new method for synchronizing the mouse estrous cycle. Methods: A Results: Intravaginal P4 application effectively synchronized the estrous cycle and did not adversely affect pregnancy rate or litter size. The combined use of AIMA and P4 significantly increased the number of offspring compared to natural mating ( Conclusions: Our method reduces animal discomfort and the need for vasectomized males, offering a practical approach for enhancing reproductive efficiency and animal welfare in research settings.
