Elucidating motion patterns in sperm cell motion with dynamic mode decomposition.
Article in Journal of biological physics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The study employs dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) to elucidate the underlying mechanisms contributing to the enhanced motility observed in sperm bundles, primarily focusing on the role of flagellar synchronization. The decomposition reveals that synchronized flagellar movements might be a key factor enabling sperm cells to attain higher velocities when connected in bundles. Through DMD, periodical characteristics of individual periodical motion patterns, such as frequency, amplitude, and modal growth/decay rates (from DMD eigenvalues), are characterized, elucidating main parameters of the dynamic behavior of these biological systems, such as dominant frequencies of periodical motion, as well as amplitudes and velocities. The implications of this research extend beyond understanding sperm bundle dynamics, as the methodology is adaptable for identifying healthy sperm cells based on their motility patterns. Additionally, the approach holds potential for broader applications in studying other flagellar-driven microorganisms, providing a valuable tool for comparative analysis across various species.
