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

The artificial regime was widespread used in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET). Some researchers asserted that if dominant follicles developed or ovulation occurred in hormone replacement FET cycles, this cycle should be cancelled because the fitting timing of transfer was hard to determine. In this study, we compared the difference between the outcome of frozen-thawed blastula transfer in hormone replacement treatment cycle (HRT) with or without dominant follicle development/ovulation. A total of 171 cases of frozen-thawed blastula transferred successfully in HRT cycle were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into three groups according to dominant follicle development, ovulation or not: Group A, cycles without dominant follicle developing. Group B, cycles with dominant follicle developing but without ovulation. Group C, ovulated cycles. The results showed that there was no significant difference in the pregnancy rates or other parameters among the three groups, but the abortion rate was higher in group C than those of other two groups. To conclude, dominant follicle development/ovulation was not the necessary indication to cancel transfer cycles in HRT cycles, and our cautious decision would save many valuable cycles.
