15. Do the accumulated literature indicate gaps and inconsistencies which you hope to fill? Are the variables adequately described? What data gathering instruments have been used?

16. 4. Are the target and sampling populations presented? 5. Were the hypotheses tested and correctly interpreted? 6. Are the results logical? Are the conclusions and recommendations are data-based?

26. General objectives: To investigate the histological effects of neem seed kernel extract on mouse testis Specific Objectives: To identify the changes in testes histology due to neem seed kernel extract (NSKE) exposures. To determine the relationship between neem seed kernel extract (NSKE) and occurrence of abnormal sperm morphology. To provide a feasible physiological basis for the anti-libido property of neem extract.
