One Plus One Is Better Than Two: Cumulative Reproductive Outcomes Are Better after Two Elective Single Blastocyst Embryo Transfers Compared to One Double Blastocyst Embryo Transfer.
Article in Journal of human reproductive sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
aimsThe aim of this study is to compare cumulative SETTINGS AND
designThis was retrospective observational study. STUDY PERIOD: The study was conducted during January 2015-December 2015. SUBJECTS AND
methodsForty-one fresh + 25 frozen eSET versus 123 DET using self-oocytes and 68 fresh + 35 frozen eSET versus 184 DET using donor-oocytes were included in the study. All failing to achieve live birth after first eSET underwent frozen embryo transfer cycle with second blastocyst. Cumulative outcome after two eSET were compared with one DET. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: The analysis was performed by Chi-square and
resultsIn self-oocytes group, higher but statistically nonsignificant cumulative clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) (58.5% vs. 57.7%,
conclusionCumulative LBR was higher with lower incidence of multiple births, prematurity and low birth weight after two eSET versus one DET using self- or donor-oocytes. Higher use of eSET improves reproductive outcomes in patients with good prognosis.
