The In Vitro Evaluation of Rooster Semen Pellets Frozen with Dimethylacetamide.

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
Sperm cryopreservation is an effective technique for conserving animal genetic diversity and transmitting superior genetic backgrounds, maintained via a non-invasive sampling and collection of huge quantities of sperm. Nevertheless, cryopreservation in avian species is not commercially viable because of the rooster sperm's susceptibility to damage. This study aims to estimate the impact of dimethylacetamide (DMA) as a cryoprotectant at different levels (3%, 6%, or 9%) on the post-thawed sperm quality, motility, antioxidant-biomarkers, and the expression of anti-freeze related genes. Semen samples were collected twice a week from twelve roosters aged 40 wk, weighing 3400 ± 70 g, and belonging to the Cairo-B2 chicken strain. Fresh semen samples were rapidly appraised, pooled, diluted with two volumes of a basic extender, and divided equally into three groups. The diluted groups were chilled at -20 °C for 7 min, then gently supplemented with 3, 6, or 9% pre-cooled DMA and equilibrated at 5 °C for a further 10 min. Semen pellets were formed by pipetting drops 7 cm above liquid nitrogen (LN
