1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Normal function of the ovaries, which is responsible for the hormonal and reproductive processes, is one of the most important determinants of fertility. Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is defined as cessation of menstrual cycle, increased serum follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, and decrease serum oestradiol levels in women before the age of 40 years. POI concerns about 1% of women and is characterised by severely diminished fertility. For the POI patient, this is one of the most dramatic problems. It influences their psychological status and functioning in society. The chance for spontaneous conception is very limited and ranges from 4 to 8%. For contemporary medicine, infertility treatment in POI patients is a challenge. The problem is that there are no effective therapies to augment ovarian activity in POI patients. At present, oocyte donation is regarded as the only proven method in the treatment of infertility in POI patients. However, nowadays we can observe important progress in the development of fertility preservation methods. In the POI field it refers to cryopreservation of oocytes, embryos, and ovarian tissue. Additionally, new methods known as in vitro activation of dormant follicles and possible use of stem cells should be mentioned.
