Simple workflow for genome and methylation analyses of ejaculated bovine spermatozoa with low sperm input.
Article in BioTechniques, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We developed a simplified workflow of gDNA extraction from ejaculated bovine sperm using a low total number of sperm and a short time frame that yields high-quality DNA suitable for downstream methylation and genome analyses. These techniques have broad implications in human biomedical sciences and agriculture, including clinical diagnoses of infertility, the identification of single-nucleotide polymorphisms and aberrant methylation patterns that can impact fertility, lower embryo development and contribute to heritable disease. The methods described here provide a reliable, simplistic approach for analyzing both the genomic and epigenomic status of whole sperm ejaculates that can be adapted for laboratory diagnostics, clinical reproductive practice and basic research.
