Determination of natural progesterone levels in bovine serum using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry.

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
Introduction: Progesterone, a steroidal female sex hormone, can be used for anabolic purposes in cattle. Physiological levels of progesterone in animals are highly variable, and systematic studies of them in various matrices are limited. The purpose of the present study was to apply a developed and validated method routinely used for the determination of the natural hormones 17β-oestradiol and 17β-testosterone in serum to estimate natural cattle progesterone levels. The analytes were taken from serum samples collected from cattle as part of the Polish National Residue Control Plan. Material and Methods: A total of 1,537 bovine serum samples were analysed: 895 from females and 642 from males. Progesterone was extracted from serum with a mixture of tert-butyl methyl ether and petroleum ether, the extract was derivatised and the analyte was determined by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry. Results: The basic validation parameters specified for the method, namely repeatability, reproducibility and apparent recovery, indicated it to be useful for the intended purpose. The natural presence of progesterone was detected in 679 samples from females and in 375 samples from males. Progesterone in females was measured in the range of 0.001-496.059 μg L Conclusion: The results obtained may serve as a statistical basis for further research.
