Acupuncture for diminished ovarian reserve: Protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
backgroundThe choice of treatments for diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) still remains a challenging clinical problem in reproductive medicine. Acupuncture could be beneficial for patients with DOR. This study aims to systematically investigate the efficacy and safety of the acupuncture for women with DOR.
methodsWe will search electronic databases including PubMed (1946 to present), EMBASE (1974 to present), Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL, all years), Web of Science (1900 to present), Chinese Biomedical Literatures Database (CBM, 1978 to present), China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI, 1979 to present), WANFANG Data (from 2000 to present) to identify potentially eligible studies. Only randomized controlled trials (RCTs) will be included. Experimental interventions include traditional or contemporary acupuncture. Control interventions include no treatment, sham acupuncture, placebo acupuncture, or another active therapy. The primary outcomes include ongoing pregnancy rate and serum anti-Müllerian hormone level. A meta-analysis will be used to estimate a pooled intervention effect if possible.
resultsThe results will be published in a peer-reviewed journal.
conclusionThe findings will provide further evidence for the management of DOR. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42018114385.
