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

Although drying techniques are exciting alternatives to cryopreservation, it remains challenging to maintain tightly controlled temperatures and humidity levels during storage of dried products. The objective of this study was to determine if the addition of choline acetate to trehalose solution could enable a wider range of storage conditions for preservation of nuclei from fully grown oocytes, by allowing temporary humidity excursions (>44% relative humidity) that may lead to crystallization of trehalose and loss of DNA integrity. Using domestic cat germinal vesicle oocytes as a model, we characterized the recovery as well as the integrity of samples after microwave-assisted dehydration. Exposure to choline acetate alone did not impair the germinal vesicle's DNA integrity and only had a negative impact on the chromatin configuration. Choline acetate addition enabled us to reach lower moisture contents after 25 min of microwave-assisted drying. Sample recovery after rehydration was also better in the presence of choline acetate. The integrity of the germinal vesicle's DNA was not affected, while the chromatin configuration was impaired by the presence of choline acetate during dehydration. Importantly, choline acetate addition helped to maintain an amorphous state (absence of detrimental crystallization) during excursion from ideal humidity conditions.
