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 aim of this study was to investigate ameliorative effect of selenium (Se) on lead (Pb)-induced inflammatory damage in chicken testes. One hundred eighty 7-day-old male chickens were randomly assigned into the control group, the Se group, the Pb group, and the Pb/Se group. Lead acetate was added in drinking water (350 mg/L Pb). Sodium selenite was added in the standard commercial diet (1 mg/kg Se). On the 30th, 60th, and 90th days of the experiment, 15 chickens of each group were euthanized. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, hematoxylin and eosin staining, real-time quantitative PCR, and Western blot were used. The results indicated that excess Pb increased nitric oxide content; inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) activity; nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), tumor necrosis factor-α, cyclooxygenase-2, prostaglandin E synthases, and iNOS mRNA levels in a time-dependent manner; NF-κB, iNOS, heat shock protein (HSP) 60, HSP70, and HSP90 protein levels; and Pb concentration. Excess Pb decreased Se concentration and induced histological changes. Se-alleviated Pb caused all of the above changes. Se improved Pb-caused inflammatory damage by decreasing the expression of inflammatory factors and heat shock proteins in the chicken testes. Our results provided theoretical basis of an alleviative effect of Se on Pb-induced bird testis damage.
