Comparison of the effects of platelet-rich plasma and nanocurcumin on the sperm quality parameters in frozen-thawed semen of men with asthenoteratozoospermia: A lab trial study.

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.
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
Background: Cryopreservation of sperm can adversely affect sperm quality, particularly in individuals with asthenoteratozoospermia. Various substances are added to the cryopreservation medium to prevent cellular damage. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and nanocurcumin (nCur) on sperm parameters, DNA fragmentation, and oxidative stress levels in cryopreserved semen. Materials and Methods: In this lab trial study, semen samples of 20 men with asthenoteratozoospermia who referred to Rastak and Ghavamzadeh Infertility Centers, Arak, Iran from June-August 2024 were collected. Each sample was divided into 5 groups: control (no treatment), PRP Results: Treatment with PRP Conclusion: PRP and nCur effectively improve sperm parameters in cryopreserved semen from individuals with asthenoteratozoospermia, particularly emphasizing the superior efficacy of PRP at a concentration of 50 in improving sperm quality. These results support the potential use of these agents as additives in sperm cryopreservation protocols to improve reproductive outcomes.
