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

purposeThe present study was aimed to find out whether postovulatory aging-induced abortive spontaneous egg activation (SEA) is due to insufficient increase of cytosolic free Ca(2+) level.

methodsImmature female rats (22-24 days old) were subjected to superovulation induction protocol. Eggs were collected 14, 17 and 19 h post-hCG surge to induce in vivo egg aging. The eggs were collected 14 h post-hCG surge and cultured in vitro for 3, 5 and 7 h to induce in vitro egg aging. The morphological changes, rate of abortive SEA, chromosomal status and cytosolic free Ca(2+) levels were analyzed.

resultsPostovulatory aging induced morphological features characteristics of abortive SEA in a time-dependent manner in vivo as well as in vitro. The extracellular Ca(2+) increased rate of abortive SEA during initial period of culture, while co-addition of a nifedipine (L-type Ca(2+) channel blocker) protected against postovulatory aging-induced abortive SEA. However, CI induced morphological features characteristics of egg activation (EA) in a dose-dependent manner. As compare to control, an increase of cytosolic free Ca(2+) level (1.42 times) induced abortive SEA, while further increase of cytosolic free Ca(2+) level (2.55 times) induced EA.

conclusionOur results show that an insufficient cytosolic free Ca(2+) level is associated with postovulatory aging -induced abortive SEA, while furthermore increase is required to induce EA in rat.
