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

purposeInversion of chromosome 9 (inv[9]) is considered to be a normal variant, and the inv(9) in patients or husbands with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is believed to be harmless. However, there are few reports concerning the outcomes of pregnancy in patients with RPL when the patient or their partner has inv(9). In this study, we analyzed the outcomes of pregnancy in this patient population.

methodsChromosomal karyotyping was performed for 2006 couples with RPL (two or more consecutive early pregnancy losses including non-visualized cases) with their informed consent. The frequency of various chromosomal abnormalities in the patient population was then analyzed, and the outcomes of pregnancy in patients with inv(9) were investigated.

resultsThe frequency of inv(9) in the overall population was 2.6% (52/2006). Thus far, 32 patients have conceived repetitively, resulting in live births in 23 cases and early pregnancy losses in nine cases. Four of the nine cases obtained a good outcome in the subsequent pregnancy. Thus, a successful outcome was obtained in 27 of the 32 (84.4%) cases.

conclusionsThis study suggests that inv(9) has no adverse influence on subsequent pregnancy.
