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

Nobiletin is a polymethoxylated flavonoid isolated from citrus fruits with wide biological effects, including inhibition of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and cell cycle regulation, important factors for oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM). Therefore, the objective of the present study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of nobiletin during IVM on matured bovine oocyte quality (nuclear and cytoplasmic maturation; oocyte mitochondrial activity; intracellular ROS and glutathione (GSH) levels) and their developmental competence, steroidogenesis of granulosa cells after maturation, as well as quantitative changes of gene expression in matured oocytes, their cumulus cells, and resulting blastocysts. Bovine cumulus-oocyte complexes were in vitro matured in TCM-199 +10% fetal calf serum (FCS) and 10 ng/mL epidermal growth factor (EGF) (Control) supplemented with 10, 25, 50, or 100 μM of nobiletin (Nob10, Nob25, Nob50, and Nob100, respectively) or 0.1% dimethyl sulfoxide (CDMSO: vehicle for nobiletin dilution). A significantly higher percentage of matured oocytes in metaphase II was observed in Nob25 and Nob50 compared to other groups. Similarly, cleavage rate and cumulative blastocyst yield on Days 7 and 8 were significantly higher for Nob25 and Nob50 groups. Oocytes matured with 25 and 50 μM nobiletin showed a higher rate of migration of cortical granules and mitochondrial activity and a reduction in the ROS and GSH content in comparison with all other groups. This was linked to a modulation in the expression of genes related to metabolism (
