Anti-Mullerian hormone concentrations in individual follicular fluids within one stimulated IVF cycle resemble blood serum values.

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
purposeAnti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is commonly known as the most potent marker for ovarian reserve due to its decline as female age increases. While serum AMH (sAMH) levels have been intensively investigated, there is less data regarding AMH concentrations in follicular fluid (FF), since FF has usually been designated as waste product during oocyte collection in assisted reproductive technologies. This pilot study investigated follicle AMH concentrations (fAMH) of several follicles per ovary, individually collected with the Steiner-Tan needle, and compared them to sAMH concentrations in women undergoing IVF treatment. We hypothesized that there is no difference of fAMH concentrations in individual follicles and that these concentrations resemble the sAMH value of the patient.
methodsPatients were stimulated with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist ovarian hyperstimulation protocol. On the day of oocyte retrieval, serum samples and FF from all individual follicles from one stimulated IVF cycle were collected and individually analyzed for AMH concentrations.
resultsIntracyclic mean fAMH values (n
conclusionsIn conclusion, our results clearly showed that individual fAMH concentrations reflected sAMH values and that fAMH concentrations did not significantly differ within one patient. In future studies, it will be interesting to correlate individual fAMH values to the respective embryo development and overall pregnancy outcome in order to improve IVF treatments and to refrain from embryo overproduction.
