Effect of Co-exposure to Heat and Psychological Stressors on Sperm DNA and Semen Parameters.
Article in Toxicology reports, 2021. 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 present study aims to investigate the effects of co-exposure to heat and psychological stress on sperm DNA and semen parameters among male rats. The study was conducted on 40 healthy adult male Wistar rats. The rats were randomly categorized into four groups of same size consisting of a control group, a heat stress, psychological and co-exposure groups. The heat stress group was exposed to a temperature of 36 °C at 20% relative humidity. The psychological stress exposure group was subjected to three stressors including exposure to strobe light, noise and tilting cage. According the results,the co-exposure group had lower mean sperm parameters including sperm count (17.22 ± 4.22 10
