Combined Effects of Chrysin Supplementation and Exercise Training on Diabetes-Induced Oxidative Stress and Apoptosis in Rat Testicular Tissue.
Article in International journal of fertility & sterility, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundDiabetes mellitus (DM), one of the most pervasive and enduring metabolic diseases, has been demonstrated to adversely impact male fertility. Conversely, both exercise training and Chrysin have been identified as potential interventions capable of mitigating the deleterious effects of diabetes on spermatogenesis. Thus, the current study aims to explore the individual and combined influences of Chrysin supplementation and running exercise on oxidative stress and germ cell apoptosis in the testicular tissue of diabetic adult rats. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn this experimental study, the DM was induced by streptozotocin (STZ,50 mg/kg). Rats were divided into control (received STZ solvent), DM-sole, Chrysin-sole (50 mg/kg, daily), moderate-intensity running exercise training (MIRET-sole, warm-up, 5 minutes at 30% of Smax1 (Maximum speed); Moderate intensity exercise, 60 minutes at 60% of Smax1, and recovery, 5 minutes to 30% of Smax1), DM+Chrysin, DM+MIRET, and DM+MIRET+Chrysin. Following 8 weeks, the histopathological changes (Johnson's score, epithelial height, and tubular diameter), testicular malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), and the mRNA levels of anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2 and pro-apoptotic gene Bax was analyzed.
resultsChrysin solely and simultaneous with MIRET could remarkably (P=0.001) improve the DM-induced histopathological damages, increase the testicular SOD and GPx levels, and decline the DM-increased MDA content. Moreover, our results showed that Chrysin solely and more simultaneously with MIRET could significantly (P=0.001) decrease the mRNA expression of
conclusionOur findings showed that co-administration of Chrysin along with MIRET can significantly ameliorate the DM-induced histopathological, and biochemical impairments and reduce the pro-apoptotic impact of DM on testicular tissue.
