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

Protein O-glycosylation plays critical roles in sperm formation and maturation. However, detailed knowledge on the mechanisms involved is limited due to lacking characterization of O-glycoproteome of testicular germ cells. Here, we performed a systematic analysis of site-specific O-glycosylation in mouse testis, and established an O-glycoproteome map with 349 O-glycoproteins and 799 unambiguous O-glycosites. Moreover, we comprehensively investigated the distribution properties of O-glycosylation in testis and identified a region near the N-terminal of peptidase S1 domain that is susceptible to O-glycosylation. Interestingly, we found dynamic changes with an increase Tn and a decrease T structure from early to mature developmental stages. Notably, the importance of O-glycosylation was supported by its effects on the stability, cleavage, and interaction of acrosomal proteins. Collectively, these data illustrate the global properties of O-glycosylation in testis, providing insights and resources for future functional studies targeting O-glycosylation dysregulation in male infertility.
