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
Cryopreservation of sperm is a resource used for artificial insemination. In the case of bovines, it ensures the reproduction of animals through cells from males with a highlighted genetic background. The fertilisation capacity of sperm cells is achieved after capacitation, a process that includes subcellular modifications that could be altered by cryopreservation. Intracellular calcium handling plays a crucial role in the development of capacitation, culminating in the acrosomal reaction. SERCA protein is responsible for calcium reuptake into the acrosome, which is one of the main calcium reservoirs of sperm cells. In this work, we studied the relationships between SERCA activity and sperm motility, capacitation progression, actin polymerisation, and intracellular calcium handling in cryopreserved bovine spermatozoa. Inhibition of SERCA activity reduced sperm motility and induced hyperactivation patterns. It also increased the proportion of cells with acrosomal reaction and earlier actin depolymerisation, an event necessary to induce the acrosomal reaction. All changes occurred in concordance with a significant increase in intracellular calcium concentration (Ca
