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 placenta undergoes a major oxygen transition between 7 and 9 gestation weeks (GW) and 12-14 GW. Inadequate adaptation to these environmental changes leads to oxidative stress and the release of syncytial knots, a hallmark of preeclampsia (PE). As mitochondria play a central role in redox regulation, we investigated mitochondrial network dynamics and the role of hypoxia-inducible factor 1-alpha (HIF1-α) in trophoblasts during early pregnancy and in PE. HIF1-α is stabilized in placenta before 9 GW, associated with mitochondrial hypertubulation and increased mitofusin (MFN) 1 expression. Experimental stabilization of HIF1-α using cobalt chloride induces mitochondrial fission through downregulation of MFN1 and MFN2, and upregulation of dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1). In pre-eclamptic placentas, significantly elevated mitochondrial fission 1 protein (FIS1) levels suggest enhanced mitochondrial fission, supporting FIS1 as a potential biomarker of PE-associated placental alterations.
