Pre-implantation genetic testing: decisional factors to accept or decline among in vitro fertilization patients.
Article in Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
purposeEmbryo testing to improve pregnancy outcomes among individuals who are seeking assisted reproduction technologies is increasing. The purpose of this study was to assess decisional factors through in-depth interviews for why women would accept or decline preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) with in vitro fertilization (IVF).
methodsSemi-structured telephone interviews were conducted with 37 women who were offered PGT-A with IVF during the summer 2017. Interviews lasted on average 40 min and were audio-recorded, transcribed, and analyzed using a content analysis.
resultsResults identified a number of decisional factors related to values about conception, disability, and pregnancy termination, past pregnancy experiences, optimism toward technology, and cost. Other key issues that were identified include the use of expanded carrier screening prior to IVF, maternal age, and limited education about PGT-A due to the complexity about education for IVF alone.
conclusionThere is a need to develop decision support tools for the increasing choices of genetic testing options for patients seeking IVF. Including patients' values, past pregnancy experiences and attitudes toward science into the decision-making process may help promote a more informed decision.
