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

objectiveThe aim of this article was to determine digital levels of the association of factors of pregnancy success after the first cycle of intrauterine insemination (IUI) with 300 infertile couples.

methodsThe IUI procedure was followed at 36 h after triggering the ovulation, if at least one follicle measured >15 mm. Endometrium thickness (ET) and serum luteinizing hormone (LH) levels were measured at day 10 for each patient. The post-wash total motile fraction (TMF) of semen of the partner of each patient was also evaluated. The principal component analysis (PCA) was done with the data to quantify the associations of related factors.

resultsThe clinical pregnancy rate of first cycle IUI attempts was 17.3 %, observed in females, aged 20-39 years and men with TMF >5 million spermatozoa. The ovarian stimulation enabled the development of follicles measuring >16 mm, with LH levels <10 mIU/L and ET >5 mm for success. The PCA revealed that with the female-age parameter, three factors, NF, ET, and LH were related in the component 1; similarly, NF, LH, and RFS were related in component 2; age, NF, ET, LH, LFS, and TMF were related in component 3; and NF, ET, LH, RFS, and LFS in component 4 were related, i.e., the best correlation.

conclusionsAssociated principal determinative factors, LH, female-age, NF and LFS values were highly significant, but the factors, ET, RFS and TMF were statistically insignificant for success through IUI in pregnancy.
