Role of genome-wide mRNA-seq profiling in understanding the long-term sperm maintenance in the storage tubules of laying hens.
Article in Tropical animal health and production, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Sperm storage function of the sperm storage tubules (SSTs) is directly correlated with the fertility of laying hens. SSTs are located at the utero-vaginal junction (UVJ) and infundibulum of the hen oviduct. However, little is known about the cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for long-term sperm maintenance in the lumen of the SSTs. In this study, we profiled transcriptomes to detect the different gene expressions between infundibulum and UVJ using RNA-seq. As a result, we identified a total of 1382 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). GO analysis showed that fat acid metabolism, regulation of cell differentiation, regulation of transport, and immune response were enriched for these DEGs, and many of the pH-regulatory functions genes such as CAIV and SLC4A4 were highly expressed in UVJ, which inferred that SSTs could preserve sperm by regulating physiological functions in UVJ. Our results provide new insight to understand the specific function for SSTs to extend sperm life span in the oviduct of laying hens.
