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

In vitro experiments have become a powerful alternative to in vivo approaches for analyzing gene functions and molecular mechanisms. However, successful in vitro oogenesis using the C57BL/6 strain-widely used as a standard mouse model in mammalian studies-has not yet been reported. In this study, we established a 30-day culture system combining ovarian and follicular culture, and successfully produced fully competent oocytes from neonatal C57BL/6N ovaries, which contain only non-growing oocytes prior to primordial follicle formation. A key contributing factor to this success was the supplementation of dibutyryl cyclic AMP, a membrane-permeable analogue of endogenous cyclic AMP, which promoted follicular growth. This culture system provides a valuable tool for investigating the mechanisms underlying oogenesis.
