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

Background: Follicular fluid (FF) is a biological fluid that contains many compounds such as proteins, hormones, metabolites, antioxidants, Aims: The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of adding cattle and human follicular fluid on bulls' semen quality during the freezing process. Methods: Semen sampling from 12 Simmental bulls was performed in a period of 3 months (36 ejaculations with three ejaculates per bull). Each ejaculate was divided into four equal portions. Three portions were used for control (C) (semen without follicular fluid), semen containing human follicular fluid (HFF), semen containing cow follicular fluid (CFF). Another part of semen was also used to prepare seminal plasma. Sperm quality assessment was performed on fresh and thawed frozen (immediately after thawing, 1 and 2 h after thawing) semen. Results: Adding human follicular fluid to the bulls' semen can slow down the process of reducing sperm motility and can delay the increase in the percentage of dead sperm in frozen-thawed semen. Conclusion: The human follicular fluid maintains the viability and motility of bull sperms better than the control and bovine follicular fluid. The possible effect of human follicular fluid on the metabolism of sperms during the process of freezing and thawing needs to be clarified in future studies.
