Remedial effect of DL-alpha-lipoic acid against adriamycin induced testicular lipid peroxidation.
Article in Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Adriamycin (ADR), a cytotoxic antineoplastic drug is used in the treatment of various solid tumors. However, its efficacy continues to be challenged by significant toxicities including testicular toxicity. In the present study, the effect of lipoic acid, a "universal antioxidant" was investigated on ADR induced peroxidative damages in rat testis. Adult male albino rats of Wistar strain were administered ADR (1 mg/kg body weight, i.v.) once a week for 10 weeks. ADR injected rats showed a significant decline in the activities of enzymic antioxidants (catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase and glutathione-S-transferase) and non-enzymic antioxidants (reduced glutathione, Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Vitamin E) with high malondialdehyde levels. The extent of testicular toxicity was evident from the decreased activities of testicular marker enzymes (sorbitol dehydrogenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase). Treatment with lipoic acid (35 mg/kg body weight, i.p.) one day prior to ADR administration, maintained near normal activities of the enzymes and significantly reduced lipid peroxidation, thereby proving it to be an effective cytoprotectant.
