Delayed intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) with trophectoderm biopsy and preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) show increased aneuploidy rates but can lead to live births with single thawed euploid embryo transfer (STEET).

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
purposeThe aim of this study was to report the results of IVF with trophectoderm biopsy and preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) following delayed intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
methodsPatients undergoing IVF with PGS and delayed ICSI were included in the study. Indications for delayed ICSI included absent or poor fertilization via standard insemination or more than 50 % immature oocytes, noted post-cumulus stripping for standard ICSI procedure. Delayed ICSI was performed the day after retrieval due to absent or poor fertilization. The immature oocytes were kept in extended culture, and if demonstrated maturity, ICSI was performed. Primary outcome included fertilization rate and blastocyst stage formation, defined by the number of blastocysts for biopsy. Secondary outcome included aneuploidy rate and pregnancy outcomes following single thawed euploid embryo transfers (STEET).
resultsSixteen patients with delayed ICSI were included in the study. Twelve were due to poor fertilization and four secondary to immature oocytes. A total of 219 oocytes were retrieved; ten were frozen upon patient request, 168 had standard insemination, and 13 had routine ICSI on the day of retrieval. A total of 129 oocytes underwent delayed ICSI. Sixty-three (49 %) fertilized, 19 (14.7 %) reached blastocysts for biopsy; fivw of which were chromosomally normal (26.3 %). Three patients underwent STEET of a delayed ICSI embryo; all three resulted in live births, including one embryo biopsied on day 8 of development.
conclusionFertilization failure or an excessive proportion of immature oocytes in an IVF cycle, necessitating delayed ICSI, showed equivalent fertilization and blast formation rates. With the implementation of trophectoderm biopsy and PGS, these embryos can lead to healthy live born babies.
