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

purposeThe aim of this study was to analyze the metabolic profiles of blastocoel fluid (BF) obtained from bovine embryos produced in vivo and in vitro.

methodsExpanded blastocysts (20/group) that were in vitro and in vivo derived at day 7 were used. BF was collected and analyzed under direct infusion conditions using a microTOF-Q

resultsThe spectrometry showed an evident difference in the metabolic profiles of BF from in vivo and in vitro produced embryos. These differences were very consistent between the samples of each group suggesting that embryo fluids can be used to identify the origin of the embryo. Ions 453.15 m/z, 437.18 m/z, and 398.06 m/z were identified as biomarkers for the embryo's origin with 100% sensitivity and specificity. Although it was not possible to unveil the molecular identity of the differential ions, the resulting spectrometric profiles provide a phenotype capable of differentiating embryos and hence constitute a potential parameter for embryo selection.

conclusionTo the best of our knowledge, our results showed, for the first time, an evident difference between the spectrometric profiles of the BF from bovine embryos produced in vivo and in vitro.
