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

Reproduction in males is one of the complicated processes that is mediated by many environmental factors, as well as by diet (e.g. supplements, nutritional value). The parameters of reproduction like sperm cells, hormones and testicular histology are highly prone to oxidative stress due to influence of factors on reproductive processes. Polyphenols are naturally present in feed of animals as shrubs, trees and agro-industrial by products. The exposures of these polyphenols through diet have strong antioxidants properties. However, the benefits of these substances on reproductive health are not always certain. The use of these polyphenols in the diet of animals and in the semen extender has been reported as remarkable benefits. These beneficial effects are manifested in the form of improvement of antioxidant potential via the reduction in the production of reactive oxygen species. Polyphenols are also used for cryopreservation of various species for the genetic improvement of various species. This review gathers all the findings related to dietary consumptions of polyphenols on reproductive performance of male of various species as well as use in semen extender in fresh and frozen semen.
