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

Spermatogonia stem cells (SSCs) are a unique cell population maintaining male spermatogenesis during life, through their potential for proliferation and differentiation. The application of silicon nanoparticles (SNs) and hyaluronic acid (HA) to induce the differentiation of SSCs seems promising. Herein, we investigate the effect of SN and HA scaffolds on the progression of SSCs spermatogenesis in mice. Initially SSCs were isolated from healthy immature mice and cultured on prepared scaffolds (HA, SN, and HA/SN) in a 3D culture system. Then viability of SSCs cultured on scaffolds was examined using MTT assay and Acridine Orange staining. Then SSCs cultured on scaffolds were transplanted into epididymal adipose tissue (EAT) in mature mice and the result was studied by H&E and IHC staining 8 weeks after transplantation. MTT and Acridine Orange analysis revealed that among three different scaffolds HA/SN based scaffold causes considerable toxicity on SSCs (P < 0.05) while H&E staining showed that culture of SSCs on HA, SN, and HA/SN scaffolds has a positive effect on the progression of SSCs spermatogenesis after transplantation into EAT. IHC staining identified TP1, TEKT1, and PLZF as crucial biomarkers in the spermatogenesis development of SSCs transplanted to EAT. According to the presence of these biomarkers in different experimental groups, we found the most spermatogenesis development in SSCs cultured on HA/SN scaffold (PLZF, P < 0.01) (TEKT1, P < 0.01) (TP1, P < 0.001). Our study showed that, although the cytotoxic effect of the HA/SN scaffold decreases the viability rate of SSCs; however, SSCs that survive on HA/SN scaffold showed more ability to progress in spermatogenesis after transplantation into EAT.
