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

The normal development of the testis is essential for male reproduction, as it is the site of sperm production and a prerequisite for spermatogenesis. MiRNAs play crucial roles in various testicular biological processes, including cell proliferation, spermatogenesis, hormone secretion, metabolism, and reproductive regulation. In this study, we utilized deep sequencing data to analyze the expression patterns of small RNAs in testicular tissues of Southern × Hu sheep F1 hybrids at 0, 3, 6 months, and 1 year of age, thereby exploring the functions of miRNAs in testicular development and spermatogenesis. A total of 787 known miRNAs and 415 novel miRNAs were identified. We identified 217, 254, 405, 130, 305, and 138 DE miRNAs in the testes of M0 vs. M3, M0 vs. M6, M0 vs. Y1, M3 vs. M6, M3 vs. Y1, and M6 vs. Y1, respectively. GO annotation and KEGG pathway analysis of DE miRNA target genes revealed that target genes such as
