Prominin-1 expression in the testis/epididymis and fertility.
Article in Reproductive medicine and biology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
The contribution of Prominin-1 (aka CD133) to male fertility has recently been (re)investigated, with contradictory results. Early findings, essential for deciphering its role, have unfortunately been neglected. Here, the authors present what is currently known about its expression in the male reproductive system of rodents and men so that its involvement in male fertility can be re-examined and discussed in the light of these elements.
