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

Horses and donkeys, as integral members of the equine family, exhibit distinct reproductive capabilities and characteristics. Seminal plasma, the fluid component of semen, contains a variety of proteins that play critical roles in sperm function and fertility. This study aimed to systematically compare the protein profiles in the seminal plasma of horses and donkeys, thereby elucidating the molecular differences between these two species. The study utilized 4D-DIA proteomics technology to analyze seminal plasma from horses and donkeys and further validated key proteins through Western blot. Our findings revealed significant variations in seminal plasma protein composition between horses and donkeys. We identified 2380 and 2385 proteins in the seminal plasma of horses and donkeys. Among these proteins, 59 are solely present in the seminal plasma of horses, and 64 uniquely exsit in that of donkeys, respectively. These insights enhance our understanding of the biological mechanisms underlying the reproductive distinctions between these equine species. Moreover, the identified species specific proteins may be essential for thier sperm quality and function, which holds practical value for breeding programs and investigations.
