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

Seasonal infertility as a phenotypic consequence of heat stress has been recognized in production animals for decades and more recently in women. Systemic impacts of heat stress include compromised intestinal integrity, and elevated prolactin and insulin. These effects alone can compromise female fertility. There are also ovarian endocrine changes and molecular sequelae that have been identified. This review summarizes the current literature with a focus on the pig as a model. In addition to direct thermal effects on fecundity, the influence of heat on the ovarian capacity to respond to chemical exposures that are also fertotoxic is discussed. The toxicants of focus are zearalenone and perfluorooctanoic acid, both of which are risks to porcine fertility. Reduced fertility is detrimental to animal welfare, economic sustainability and food security and identification of mechanisms is requisite for development of mitigation strategies.
