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

Immunofluorescence staining is a technique that permits visualization of components of various cell preparations. During spermiogenesis, cargo proteins are transported through the intra-manchette transport (IMT) to the basal bodies; then sperm flagella are assembled by intraflagellar transport (IFT). Due to the big complexes formed by IMT and IFT components, it has been challenging to visualize these components in tissue sections. Testicular tissue is digested by a combination of enzymes (DNAse 1 and Collagenase IV) and fixed by paraformaldehyde and sucrose. After being permeabilized with Triton X-100, testicular cells are incubated with special primary antibodies to detect the specific components in the manchette and developing tails.
