Effects of Environmental EDCs on Oocyte Quality, Embryo Development, and the Outcome in Human IVF Process.
Article in Advances in experimental medicine and biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In our daily life, people are inevitably exposed to potentially hazardous chemical contaminants. More and more evidences indicate that environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) negatively affect human reproductive health and are related to many diseases including infertility. Environmental reproductive health focuses on exposure to ubiquitous and persistent EDCs. This chapter mainly discusses the effects of EDCs on the outcome of human in vitro fertilization (IVF), including oocyte quality, fertilization, embryo quality, implantation, and live births. It may be useful for doctors to advise IVF patients to avoid these adverse environmental factors as much as possible. In addition, it is important for clinical embryologists to bear in mind that adverse IVF outcome may result from such undesirable environmental exposure, and quality management and quality control in the IVF laboratory should be strengthened.
