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 use of 3-dimensional (3-D) printing is gaining popularity in life sciences and driving innovation in fields including aquatic sperm cryopreservation. Yet, little is known about the effects leachates from these objects may have on biological systems. In this study, we investigated if exposure to leachates from 3-D printed objects fabricated from different photo-curable resins could affect sperm quality in two model fish species, zebrafish (Danio rerio) and goldfish (Carassius auratus). Leachates were collected following contact periods of 10 min and 22 h with objects manufactured using a mask LCD resin printer and three different commercially available resins (i.e., standard, eco-friendly, and impact-resistant). Sperm cells were exposed to the leachates for 18 min, and parameters related to sperm motility, cell count, and membrane integrity were evaluated. All experiments were blinded. Leachate originating from contact with impact-resistant resin for 10 min significantly reduced the cell count of zebrafish sperm, while leachate originating from contact with standard resin for 22 h significantly increased the beat cross frequency of goldfish sperm. The changes were not observed across species and no adverse effects were recorded in percent motility, velocity, amplitude of lateral head movement, or membrane integrity of sperm. Our findings demonstrate that exposure to leachates from certain 3-D printed resins can affect sperm quality, while other resins may support sperm quality evaluation. Further investigations are warranted to assess other parameters, effects, and their biological relevance for a variety of aquatic species.
