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

Semen cryopreservation and artificial insemination have crucial and beneficial effects on cattle breeding. The freezability of sperm, as primarily reflected by post-thaw sperm motility (PTM), is essential for evaluating semen quality. Some studies have shown notable differences in sperm freezability among various bulls. Here, we compared protein profiles of sperm cells and seminal plasma extracellular vesicles (SPEVs) in the high sperm freezability group and the low sperm freezability group of Holstein bulls to identify the important proteins and their mechanisms that affect sperm freezability. As a result, 432 and 394 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in sperm and SPEVs between high and low freezability groups. The results of weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) showed that the blue module was significantly (r = 0.89, P = 9 × 10
