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

Little is known about mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication during oocyte maturation and its regulation by extracellular factors. The present study determined the effects of supplementation of maturation medium with porcine follicular fluid (pFF; 0, 10%, 20%, and 30%) on mtDNA copy number and oocyte maturation in experiment 1; the effects on epidermal growth factor (EGF; 10 ng/mL), neuregulin 1 (NRG1; 20 ng/mL), and NRG1 + insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1; 100 ng/mL + NRG1 20 ng/mL), on mtDNA copy number, oocyte maturation, and embryo development after parthenogenic activation in experiment 2; and effects on embryo development after in vitro fertilization in experiment 3. Overall, mtDNA copy number increased from germinal vesicle (GV) to metaphase II (MII) stage oocytes after in vitro maturation (GV: 167 634.6 ± 20 740.4 vs. MII: 275 131.9 ± 9 758.4 in experiment 1; P < 0.05; GV: 185 004.7 ± 20 089.3 vs. MII: 239 392.8 ± 10 345.3 in experiment 2; P < 0.05; Least Squares Means ± SEM). Supplementation of IVM medium with pFF inhibited mtDNA replication (266 789.9 ± 11 790.4 vs. 318 510.1 ± 20 377.4; P < 0.05) and oocyte meiotic maturation (67.3 ± 0.7% vs. 73.2 ± 1.2%, for the pFF supplemented and zero pFF control, respectively; P < 0.01). Compared with the control, addition of growth factors enhanced oocyte maturation. Furthermore, supplementation of NRG1 stimulated mitochondrial replication, increased mtDNA copies in MII oocytes than in GV oocytes, and increased percentage of blastocysts in both parthenogenetic and in vitro fertilized embryos. In this study, mitochondrial biogenesis in oocytes was stimulated during in vitro maturation. Oocyte mtDNA copy number was associated with developmental competence. Supplementation of maturation medium with NRG1 increased mtDNA copy number, and thus provides a means to improve oocyte quality and developmental competence in pigs.
