Optimization of the best extender for liquid semen of Muscovy duck (
Article in Open veterinary journal, 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
Background: Semen quality during storage is a critical determinant of the success of artificial insemination in poultry. Muscovy duck ( Aim: This study investigated the effects of different glutathione (GSH) and vitamin C concentrations on the quality and longevity of Muscovy duck semen during cold storage. The novelty of this research lies in its focus on Muscovy ducks, the evaluation of multiple antioxidant concentrations, and detailed observation intervals to optimize semen preservation. Methods: Fresh semen was collected from adult Muscovy ducks and diluted with Ringer's lactate extender supplemented with GSH (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 mM) or vitamin C (0.568, 1.136, 1.704, and 2.272 mM). The diluted semen was stored at 5°C and evaluated every 12 hours for motility, viability, abnormalities, and membrane plasma integrity. Longevity was defined as the duration during which motility and viability remained >50%. Results: Both antioxidants significantly influenced all semen quality parameters during storage ( Conclusion: Appropriate GSH and vitamin C concentrations effectively maintained the quality and longevity of Muscovy duck semen during cold storage. These antioxidants show potential for improving AI outcomes in poultry.
