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

Chlorpyrifos (CPF), a widely used organophosphate pesticide, accumulates in the environment and affects human health. Its neurotoxicity has been extensively studied, and recent research has revealed that it can also lead to abnormal spermatogenesis. However, the factors and molecular mechanisms involved remain unclear. In this study, male Sprague-Dawley rats were gavaged with different concentrations of CPF for 30 days, resulting in a disrupted blood-testis barrier (BTB) and abnormal spermatogenesis. RNA sequencing analysis of Sertoli cells, the primary components of the BTB and key targets of environmental toxins, revealed that ferroptosis-related genes were predominantly among the differentially expressed genes. The expression of ferroptosis-related markers was up-regulated, malondialdehyde and Fe
