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

Transcriptomic analyses of germ cells at different stages of differentiation have shed light on the transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms regulating gene expression that ensure the correct progression of spermatogenesis and male fertility. In this chapter, we describe a method to isolate meiotic and post-meiotic germ cells, based on gravimetric sedimentation, starting from a testicular germ cell suspension isolated from a single adult mouse. We also describe how to assess the purity and quality of the collected fractions of germ cells and how to optimize the extraction from these samples of RNA for subsequent RNA-sequencing experiment. In our experience, this protocol is suitable for germ cell isolation and transcriptomic analysis for mouse models with spermatogenic defects, overcoming the limits that reduced fertility poses to the obtaining of experimental animals.
