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

Pesticides are used as insecticides in agriculture. Lupeol (LUP) is a dietary triterpene with antioxidant effects. This experiment aimed to investigate the effects of LUP against testicular pesticides toxicity via histological and biochemical findings. Wistar albino rats were used. Control, corn oil, malathion (MAL), chlorpyrifos (CPF), tebuconazole (TEB), LUP, MAL + LUP, CPF + LUP, and TEB + LUP group. Control group rats were given physiological saline. Corn oil is used as a solvent in the preparation of pesticide agents. MAL 50 mg/kg, CPF 10 mg/kg, TEB 50 mg/kg (first 4 days) and 25 mg/kg (last 4 days), LUP 20 mg/kg were given via oral gavage. After 10 days, rats were dissected, and testes were taken for histological analysis. Oxidative stress parameters were determined spectrophotometrically in testicular tissue specimens. In the pesticide group, histological and biochemical damage score increased, morphological sperm smear defects were also detected. These defects were reversed upon the administration of LUP. LUP demonstrated an ameliorative effect on histopathological and biochemical parameters in pesticide induced testicular damage.
