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

This study aimed to investigate the effects of adding different levels of punicalagin or oleuropein to TRIS diluent on the quality of frozen-thawed semen from Najdi rams. Semen was diluted using TRIS-based diluter with 15% egg yolk (control group); supplemented with 0.1, 0.5, or 1 mg/100 mL punicalagin (in Experiment 1); or supplemented with 1, 2.5, or 5 mg/100 mL oleuropein (in Experiment 2). The collected semen was evaluated and cryopreserved, with the motility and concentration of sperm assessed using a CASA system. The results showed that the total motile spermatozoa (TMS), percentage of progressive motile spermatozoa (PMS), curvilinear velocity (VCL), rectilinear velocity, average path velocity (VAP), linearity coefficient, straightness index, minor defects, and sperm vitality were higher in the 0.1 mg/100 mL punicalagin group (
