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

Nonhuman primates (NHPs) have been widely used in reproductive biology, neuroscience, and drug development since a number of primate species are phylogenetically close to humans. In this review, we summarize the use of NHPs for nonclinical application in the reproductive system disorders including the loss or failure of an organ or tissue. Causes of infertility include congenital aplasia and acquired disorders of the reproductive organs. In addition, anti-cancer treatments can deplete ovarian follicles, leading to premature ovarian failure, infertility and long-term health risks. Along with a limited supply of human reproductive organs, anatomic/physiologic similarities to humans support the need for NHP models (New-World monkeys such as the common marmoset and Old-World monkeys such as cynomolgus and rhesus monkeys) to promote the advances in female infertility studies. For maintaining and executing animal studies using NHP, special protocols including animal care, anesthetic protocol, surgical technique, and immunosuppressive protocol are necessary. With a growing interest in the potential therapies such as endometrial tissue engineering, and ovary/follicle cryopreservation and grafting in Korea, this review can be useful in selecting appropriate animal models and can bridge between nonclinical studies and clinical applications by providing detailed information on the use of NHPs in the field of reproductive organ disorders.
