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

purposeTo investigate human spermatogenesis, we isolated human testis-specific genes.

methodsUsing mouse amino acid sequences, we found the region including homology in amino acid level in the human genome sequences. The primers encompassing introns were made and RT-PCR and RACE were carried out. The resultant PCR products were sequenced.

resultsThe full-length cDNA of human OPPO1 was isolated. It encodes 257 amino acid residues. The expression of the human OPPO1 was predominantly in the testis. On the other hand, partial cDNAs of ZNF8, GR194, GR219, GR093, GR046, GR163, and GR200 were expressed in the various tissues.

conclusionsOur data suggests that the human OPPO1 may play important roles in human spermatogenesis.
