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

This study investigated, for the first time, the alterations in the uterine echotexture and blood flow in cyclic and acyclic (inactive ovary) goats using ultrasonography. The study aimed also to evaluate the metabolomic changes in the plasma of cyclic and acyclic goats. Furthermore, the histopathological approach was applied to the specimens of the uterus to validate the findings of this study. Based on monitoring the estrous cyclicity, goats were assigned into either a cyclic group or an acyclic one (n = 7, each). Ovarian morphometry and hemodynamics were assessed to confirm group assignment. Full ultrasonographic examinations were performed to assess the uterine echotexture by B-mode ultrasonography and uterine hemodynamics by color Doppler ultrasonography in the cyclic group (at days 10-12) and acyclic group. Additionally, blood samples were withdrawn for measuring hormonal concentrations and for metabolomics analysis. Specimens of the uterus were executed for histopathological evaluation in both groups. Results revealed alterations in the uterine hemodynamics and endometrial echotexture. Goats in the cyclic group attained a significantly higher color pixel area of the endometrium compared to those in the acyclic one (P< 0.001). However, the pixel intensity of the endometrium echotexture was significantly (P< 0.05) lower in the cyclic group than in the smooth inactive ovary one. There were significant (P< 0.05) increases in the concentrations of FSH, LH, and inhibin in the cyclic group compared to their concentrations in the acyclic one. Goats in the acyclic group attained noticeable (P< 0.001) lower concentrations of E
