The frequencies of Y chromosome microdeletions in infertile males.
Article in Turkish journal of urology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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
objectiveTo determine the frequencies and the characteristics of Y chromosome microdeletions in infertile males. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe records of 1616 infertile males were included in the study. The cases were divided into groups according to the infertility etiology and semen analysis. The frequencies and the characteristics of Y chromosome microdeletions were investigated in groups.
resultsY chromosome microdeletion was detected in 54 (3.3%) of 1616 cases. Microdeletions in the azoospermia factor (AZF) region were the most common (48.1%). When the cases were grouped according to causes of infertility that could be detected, no Y chromosome microdeletions were detected in some groups (cases with Klinefelter Syndrome, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, congenital absence of vas deferens, and 47, XYY karyotype).
conclusionY chromosome microdeletions were detected quite frequently in certain infertility subgroups. Therefore, detailed evaluation of an infertile man by physical examination, semen analysis, hormonal evaluations and when required, karyotype analysis may predict the patients for whom Y chromosome microdeletion analysis is necessary and also prevent cost increases.
