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

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is widely used in regenerative medicine, and the current study aimed to investigate the effects of autologous PRP on semen characteristics, testicular blood flow, and testosterone levels in the treatment of oligozoospermia in dogs. Ten stray male dogs diagnosed with oligozoospermia were included in the study. The dogs were randomly assigned to two groups: Group I, the control group (n = 5), which received no treatment, and Group II, the PRP group (n = 5), which received a single intra-testicular injection of 0.5 mL of autologous PRP into each testicle. Testicular hemodynamics, hormonal and biochemical analysis and semen parameters were assessed for both groups and the examination was extended to 8 weeks. The results demonstrated that dogs treated with PRP showed significantly higher values of End Diastolic Velocity (EDV) and Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) (P < 0.001) at the 6
