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
backgroundBeing highly fragmented and low in concentration, isolation of good quality RNA from sperm cells is a big challenge. Attempts have been made to evaluate various sperm RNA isolation methods from purified buffalo bull sperm cells.
methodsBoth, non-membrane and membrane-based methods have been evaluated for isolating RNA from Murrah buffalo sperms and compared for their respective efficacies. The traditional TRIzol, TRIzol-heat lysed (H-TRIzol) and cocktail of TCEP-RLT lysis buffer (Qiagen RNeasy mini kit)-TRIzol (C-TRIzol) based isopropanol isolation methods have been evaluated.
resultsH-TRIzol yielded best results among conventional methods. The combined T-RLT RNA isolation protocol yielded best quality and quantity compared to other membrane-based methods, due to high lytic property of cocktail of lysis reagents, necessary for complete breakdown of sperm membrane and RNA binding membrane for RNA isolation. Combined lysis performed by treatment with RLT-T and T-RLT differing in order of reagents used were also evaluated. T-RLT combination giving better results compared to RLT-T due to high gDNA contamination and membrane clogging in later protocol steps.
conclusionOverall, in terms of total RNA quantity and quality per million spermatozoa, the heat-lysed TRIzol method (H-TRIzol) performs best among RNA separation techniques employed and is also quite easy to perform. This comparative evaluation of sperm RNA isolation protocols can be useful in deciding the best protocol for isolation of good quality and high concentration sperm RNA from buffalo semen, for transcriptome and other downstream studies.
