Protective effect of vitamin C on chronic carbamazepine-induced reproductive toxicity in male wistar rats.
Article in Toxicology reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of vitamin C on chronic carbamazepine-induced reproductive toxicity in male Wistar rats. Four groups of 10 rats were respectively exposed to distilled water (2 ml/kg), vitamin C (100 mg/kg), carbamazepine (20 mg/kg) and vitamin C followed by CBZ, after 30 min.. The regimens were given by gavage once daily for 15 weeks. The pituitary glands and testicular tissues were assayed for oxidative stress parameters, sperm characteristics, relative weight and histological changes. Sera samples were also assayed for concentration of sex hormones. The results showed that treatment with vitamin C protected against the alteration in parameters measuring oxidative changes, sex hormones, sperm characteristics, relative pituitary and testicular weight and histological changes. The study concluded that protection against CBZ-induced alteration in reproductive parameters by vitamin C was partly due to its antioxidant effect.
