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 present study was designed to determine changes in spermatogenesis in adult mice after an intraperitoneal injection of vincristine. The effect of a GnRH antagonist synchronous to chemotherapy, which might protect spermatogenesis by halting cell division in spermatogenic cells, was also investigated. Method and Materials: A total of 30 adult male mice were studied in three equal groups of ten. In the V group, a single dose of the chemotherapy drug vincristine was injected intraperitonally at 1.5 mg/kg. In the V+C, group, the injection of Cetrorelix was started, and one week before to one week after vincristine injection continued ( for 3 weeks). Controls received no treatment. Samples were taken from the testicles, and fixed in Boueins fixative for light microscopy. Results: Comparing the mean number of Sertoli and spermatogony cells and the rate of spermatogenesis index (SI) in the V group with controls showed significant differences,which were not evident in the V+C group. Conclusion: According to the results, the cetrorelix antagonist (GnRH) could largely prevent side effects of vincristine administration regarding seminiferous tubules.
