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

The localization of DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) box helicase 6 (DDX6) in spermatogenic cells from the mouse, rat, and guinea pig was studied by immunofluorescence (IF) and immunoelectron microscopy (IEM). Spermatogenic cells from these species yielded similar DDX6 localization pattern. IF microscopy results showed that DDX6 localizes to both the nucleus and cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm of spermatogenic cells, diffuse cytosolic and discrete granular staining was observed, with the staining pattern changing during cell differentiation. IEM revealed that DDX6 localized to the five different types of nuage structures and non-nuage structures, including small granule aggregate and late spermatid annuli. Nuclear labeling was strongest in leptotene and zygotene spermatocytes and moderately strong in the nuclear pocket of late spermatids. DDX6 also localized to the surface of outer dense fibers, which comprise of flagella. The results show that DDX6 is present in nuage and non-nuage structures as well as nuclei, suggesting that DDX6 has diverse functions in spermatogenic cells.
