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

Using a mouse model, our group recently described an association between chronic paternal alcohol use prior to conception and deficits in offspring growth. Here, we sought to determine the impact of alcohol exposure on male reproductive physiology and the association of sperm-inherited noncoding RNAs with the transmission of the observed growth defects. Alcohol exposure did not appreciably alter male reproductive physiology or fertility. However, chronic alcohol use reproducibly induced late-term fetal growth restriction in the offspring, which correlated with a shift in the proportional ratio of transfer RNA-derived small RNAs to Piwi-interacting RNAs, as well as altered enrichment of microRNAs miR21, miR30, and miR142 in alcohol-exposed sperm. Although our dataset share similarities to prior works examining the impact of paternal stress on offspring phenotype, we were unable to identify any changes in plasma corticosterone, indicating alcohol may alter sperm-inherited noncoding RNAs through distinct mechanisms.
