Tideglusib, a prospective alternative to nonoxynol-9 contraceptive.
Article in Contraception: X, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectivesWe aimed to evaluate the antifertility activity and vaginal irritation effects of tideglusib in vivo using rabbit models and to evaluate the cytotoxical effects of tideglusib to sperm, vaginal cells and vaginal bacteria ( STUDY
designWe treated female rabbits with vaginal tideglusib 1 mM, nonoxynol-9 (N-9) or vehicle control (Poloxamer 407). In experiment 1, we sacrificed females (
resultsThe total irritation score of tideglusib vs. N-9 was 3.4 ± 2.07 vs. 7.8 ± 3.82, p <.05. The pregnancy rate of tideglusib, N-9 and control group was 11.1%, 0% and 88.9%, respectively. Tideglusib exhibited a dose-dependent spermostatic/spermicidal activity, and the minimum effective concentrations of tideglusib and N-9 were 8.724 ± 3.047 μM and 219.75 ± 41.78 μM, respectively. SEM and transmission electron microscopy revealed acrosomal membrane impairments caused by tideglusib. Tideglusib was much less toxic to vaginal cells and
conclusionsEvaluation using rabbit models indicated that tideglusib is a prospective spermicidal contraceptive with low vaginal irritation effects. IMPLICATIONS: Tideglusib or tideglusib analogues may be a contraceptive with perspective to replace N-9. It is possible for a spermicide to balance spermicidal activity and vaginal/cervical irritation effects very well.
