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

introductionThe effect of paternal characteristics on embryo development and the outcome of preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy have not been extensively explored. This study investigates the association of sperm parameters, insemination, and extraction techniques, with the rate of embryo aneuploidy. This study sought to evaluate the association between male factor infertility and embryo aneuploidy. MATERIAL AND

methodsPatients underwent in vitro fertilization using intracytoplasmic sperm injection, with preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy. Patients were divided into four groups by sperm parameters: Group A: oligozoospermia (sperm concentration <10 million, morphology > 4%); Group B: teratozoospermia (sperm concentration >10 million, morphology <4%); Group C: oligozoospermia and teratozoospermia (sperm concentration <10 million, morphology <4%); Group D: controls. Additionally, couples were divided into three categories by days of abstinence: Group A: <2; Group B: 2-7; and Group C: >7.

resultsA total of 4108 in vitro fertilization cycles with preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy were analyzed. After controlling for parental age and follicle count, the rate of embryo aneuploidy was not affected by duration of abstinence, sperm parameters, or the source of the sperm sample.

conclusionsNumerous factors related to sperm source and quality were evaluated, and a minimal influence on the rate of embryo aneuploidy was observed.
