Neither frozen-thawed seminal plasma nor commercial transforming growth factor-β1 infused intra-utero before insemination improved fertility and prolificacy in sows.
Article in Reproduction in domestic animals = Zuchthygiene, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Seminal plasma (SP) affects reproduction, inducing cell and molecular changes in the female genital tract. A main active component in SP is the modulatory transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), particularly its TGF-β1 isoform, which affects the synthesis of other cytokines as granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, relevant for embryo development and pregnancy. This study evaluated the effect of pooled frozen-thawed SP and commercial TGF-β1 infused during oestrus in sows post-cervically inseminated with liquid extended semen, containing ~4 ml of residual SP, on their fertility and prolificacy. For this, 250 sows in their post-weaning oestrus were used. Sows were randomly assigned to one of the following groups to be post-cervically treated 30 min before insemination: (i) SP group: infused with 40 ml of SP (N = 57); ii) Group TFG
