Implications of lifestyle factors on male reproductive health.
Review in JBRA assisted reproduction, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 23 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
In recent decades, there has been a substantial decline in sperm quality in humans, with lifestyle factors playing a major role in this trend. There are several lifestyle factors which are contributing to male infertility. This review, however, discusses factors such as obesity, diet/nutrition, psychological stress, radiation exposure, cigarette smoking, and alcohol use with reference to male infertility. Sperm count, motility, morphology and sperm DNA may be adversely affected by lifestyle factors, which may also affect the endocrine regulation of reproductive function. The decline in male fertility has a significant impact on fertility rates, and the resulting implications for the human population make this a serious public health concern in the twenty-first century. Thus, lifestyle interventions through a specific framework of educational, environmental, nutritional/physical exercise, and psychological support coupled with the use of nutritional antioxidants supplements can help couples achieve better health and well-being and improve their fertility prospects or increase their chances of conception.
