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

The aim of the study is to determine if the magnitude of serum estradiol levels in blastocyst frozen embryo transfer cycles are associated with clinical pregnancy. A retrospective cohort study of female patients 18-43 years old, who underwent vitrified blastocyst embryo transfers at Tripler Army Medical Center from October 1, 2006, to October 1, 2016, was evaluated to determine the impact of estradiol levels on ongoing pregnancy rates in frozen embryo transfer cycles. The study included 173 total frozen embryo transfer cycles during the 10-year study period. The mean age at time of transfer was 34.5 years old (±4.4) with a majority of women undergoing double embryo transfer (70%). There was no statistical difference in ongoing pregnancy rates across estradiol levels (p = 0.80). However, at estradiol levels >3000 pg/mL, a statistically significant ongoing pregnancy rate was observed (p = 0.009). Ongoing pregnancy rate in frozen embryo transfer cycles is not negatively impacted by elevated estradiol levels.
