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

Sperm motility is a key determinant of male fertility and is regulated by coordinated interactions within the spermatogenic niche. To investigate the basis of sperm motility divergence in geese, 60 ganders with sperm motility values within the physiological range were ranked, and the top and bottom 10% were assigned to high-sperm-motility (H) and low-sperm-motility (L) cohorts (n = 6). Semen characteristics, testicular histology, and plasma endocrine, antioxidant, and metabolic indices were compared between cohorts, and for single-cell RNA sequencing, three ganders were selected from each cohort to form the H and L groups for testicular analysis. Compared with the L cohort, the H cohort showed significantly higher sperm motility, semen volume, testis weight, testicular parenchyma area, seminiferous epithelium thickness, seminiferous tubule diameter, and plasma levels of testosterone, luteinizing hormone, total antioxidant capacity, superoxide dismutase, catalase, albumin, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, but significantly lower testicular interstitium area, and plasma levels of prolactin, corticosterone, malondialdehyde, H
