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

Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) are gaining more importance for both human fertility treatments and veterinary purposes. Furthermore, horses and other big mammals can be used as animal models for research in fertility and reproduction studies. In recent years, improvements in the efficiency and convenience of ovum pick-up (OPU), in vitro maturation (IVM), and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) techniques in horses allowed the use of ARTs as routine research and commercial procedures. However, improvements are still needed to increase the rate of successful oocyte IVM, as different laboratories use different protocols with variable maturation rates. Here, we present the protocol that we optimized for in vitro maturation of equine cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs), which is suitable for maturing oocytes for in vitro embryo production and obtaining mature oocytes for research purposes.
