Laparoscopic excision of ovarian endometrioma does not exert a qualitative effect on ovarian function: insights from in vitro fertilization and single embryo transfer cycles.

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
purposeTo evaluate whether laparoscopic excision of endometrioma exerts a qualitative effect on ovarian function.
methodsA retrospective analysis of oocytes retrieved in 25 cycles of 21 patients undergoing IVF treatment with controlled ovarian stimulation. The number of oocytes recovered from ovaries with a history of excision of endometrioma (E-Ov) were compared to those from contra-lateral healthy ovaries (H-Ov) as for the analysis of a quantitative effect of surgery. As for the analysis of a qualitative effect, 55 oocytes from E-Ov were compared to 128 oocytes from H-Ov in terms of normal fertilization rate and the rate of top-quality embryos per normally fertilized eggs. Furthermore, 10 embryos derived from oocytes recovered from E-Ov were compared to 24 embryos derived from oocytes from H-Ov in terms of clinical and on-going pregnancy rates per embryos in 34 single embryo transfer cycles.
resultsMean number of oocytes recovered from E-Ov was significantly smaller than that from H-Ov (2.2 ± 2.0 vs. 5.1 ± 3.3, P = 0.009). There was no difference between oocytes from E-Ov and H-Ov as for normal fertilization rate (63.6% vs. 69.5%, P = 0.43) and the rate of top-quality embryos (40.0% vs. 49.0%, P = 0.34). Clinical and on-going pregnancy rates per embryos were also similar in embryos derived from oocytes recovered from E-Ov and H-Ov (40.0% vs. 25.0%, P = 0.39 and 20.0% vs. 20.8%, P = 0.96).
conclusionsThe quality of oocytes recovered from the ovary with a history of laparoscopic excision of endometrioma is not inferior to the quality of oocytes from contra-lateral healthy ovary.
