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

The effects of exposure to the environmental toxicant cadmium, in combination with obesity, on the metal content in mouse testis were evaluated. Starting in utero and continuing through to 10 or 24 weeks post-weaning, male mice were exposed to cadmium (0, 0.5 or 5 ppm), and fed either a low (LFD) or high fat diet (HFD) post-weaning. Testicular levels of cadmium and essential metals were determined 10 and 24 weeks post-weaning by ICP-MS. Similar to what has been previously observed in the liver, kidney, heart and brain, significant levels of cadmium accumulated in the testis under all exposure conditions. Additionally, HFD-fed animals accumulated more cadmium than did their LFD-treated counterparts. Both treatments affected essential metal homeostasis in the testis. These findings suggest that cadmium and obesity may compromise the reproductive potential in the male mouse by disrupting essential metal levels.
