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

purposeTo investigate the impact of late follicular phase serum estradiol (E2) levels on implantation and pregnancy outcomes of cleavage stage cryopreserved/thawed embryos transferred in programmed cycles with exogenous hormonal replacement.

methodsRetrospective cohort analysis of IVF patients with transfer of cryopreserved-thawed day-3 embryos in E2 and progesterone (P4) supplemented cycles (n = 208 cycles).

main outcome measuresimplantation and pregnancy rates according to late follicular phase serum E2 levels and early secretory phase E2/P4 ratios.

resultsLogistic regression performed for embryo implantation and for pregnancy outcome in relation to E2 (day 15), P4 (day 15 and 16), before (crude analysis) and after adjustment (adjusted analysis) for baseline characteristics (including age, BMI, serum basal cycle day 3 FSH levels, embryo quality, endometrial lining thickness) showed no significant association. Similarly, ROC analysis showed no impact of cycle day 16 E2/P4 ratio.

conclusionsNeither late follicular phase serum E2 nor the early E2/P4 ratio were able to predict implantation or pregnancy outcome of day-3 cryopreserved-thawed embryos transferred in artificially programmed cycles.
