Evaluation of transfer media containing different concentrations of hyaluronan for human in vitro fertilization.

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
Purpose: The aim of the present prospective study was to investigate the efficacy of hyaluronan (HA) using two different concentrations as embryo transfer media for in vitro fertilization embryo transfer cycles. Methods: A total of 169 cycles undergoing fresh embryo transfer on day 2 or 3, 561 cycles undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer on day 2 or 3, and 484 cycles of frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer were included in this study. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: transferred with low (l-HA) or high (h-HA) concentrations of HA in transfer media. Results: In the case of fresh embryo transfer cycles, no significant differences were observed in the pregnancy (l-HA 27.2%, h-HA 31.2%), implantation (l-HA 22.1%, h-HA 24.2%), or abortion (l-HA 24.0%, h-HA 20.8%) rates between the two groups. In the case of frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles, no significant differences were noted in the pregnancy (l-HA 20.9%, h-HA 22.9%), implantation (l-HA 13.4%, h-HA 15.8%), or abortion (l-HA 17.2%, h-HA 21.5%) rates. In the case of frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer cycles, no significant differences were observed in the pregnancy (l-HA 46.0%, h-HA 41.8%), implantation (l-HA 45.8%, h-HA 41.3%), or abortion (l-HA 17.6%, h-HA 26.9%) rates. Conclusion: The present results showed that pregnancy, implantation, and abortion rates with transfer media containing different HA concentrations were similar.
