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

Uterine Leiomyoma are the most common benign tumors in women of reproductive age. Studies show that both leiomyoma and surrounding myometrium exist in a state of high oxidative stress, characterized by reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and impaired antioxidant defenses including defects of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). Oxidative stress has been proposed as a driver of leiomyoma initiation by promoting oxidative DNA damage leading to mutations in MED12 and leiomyoma growth. We hypothesize that chronic oxidative stress in human myometrial cells induces cellular remodeling and genomic alterations that promote adaptation and contribute to early events in leiomyoma development. To test this hypothesis, we generated stable human myometrial cell lines (Myo-hTERT) of wild type, MnSOD
