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

In this study, we cryopreserved pig spermatozoa using carboxylated poly-L-lysine (CPLL) as the cryoprotectant to determine its efficacy. Pig spermatozoa were placed in a freezing extender containing 3% (v/v) glycerol and different CPLL concentrations. The motility indices of the spermatozoa cryopreserved with 0.25% (v/v) CPLL at 6 (59.3), 9 (53.7), and 12 (26.2) h after thawing were significantly higher (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05) than those of the spermatozoa cryopreserved without CPLL (53.7, 40.1, and 17.5 at 6, 9, and 12 h after thawing, respectively). The concentration of CPLL in the freezing extender did not affect the ability of frozen-thawed spermatozoa to fertilize oocytes in vitro. However, the blastocyst formation rate of embryos derived from spermatozoa cryopreserved with 0.25% CPLL (24.6%) was significantly higher (P < 0.01) than that of embryos derived from spermatozoa cryopreserved without CPLL (11.2%). The conception rate of the sows inseminated with spermatozoa cryopreserved with 0.25% CPLL (72.2%) was not significantly different from that of the sows inseminated with spermatozoa stored at 17°C (81.3%). However, the mean number of total piglets born to the former (10.0) was significantly lower (P < 0.05) than that of total piglets born to the latter (13.4). The results showed that CPLL in the freezing extender maintained the motility of frozen-thawed pig spermatozoa and improved the in vitro development of embryos produced by in vitro fertilization. In addition, we have demonstrated that piglets could be obtained with artificial insemination using spermatozoa cryopreserved with CPLL.
