Comparative Analysis of Classic Semen Extenders for Frozen-Thawed Boar Semen.

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
The physiological functions of mammalian sperm, such as motility, hyperactivation, and capacitation, require substantial energy. This study investigates the effects of two classic cryopreservation extenders-TCG (tris-citrate-glucose) and LEY (lactose-egg yolk)-on the energy metabolism of frozen-thawed boar semen. By comparing the quality indicators, key metabolite levels, and the activities of critical enzymes involved in glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle, we aim to understand how these different semen extenders influence the spermatozoa vitality of frozen-thawed boar semen. Following thawing, the LEY-cryopreserved sperm demonstrated significantly elevated motility parameters (viability, VCL, VSL, and VAP) and enhanced plasma membrane and acrosomal integrity compared with the TCG group (
