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

Advanced maternal age (AMA) is known to be related to the decrease in the quality and quantity of oocytes. Oocyte vitrification is now considered an established assisted reproductive technology for fertility preservation. However, it remains unclear whether the oocytes in older women are more sensitive to various insults during vitrification. Thus, we evaluated whether AMA affects cellular and molecular features and developmental outcomes of oocytes after vitrification in mice. The oocytes were grouped as young fresh (YF), young vitrified/warmed (YV), aged fresh (AF), and aged vitrified/warmed (AV). The survival rate of AV oocytes was significantly lower than that of YV oocytes. The rates of fertilization, cleavage, and blastocyst formation of AV oocytes were significantly lower than those of other groups. AV oocytes were represented as aberrations in mitochondria distribution, microvacuole size, and autophagosome formation, leading to delayed embryo development in mice. This delay was associated with a reduced number of total cells and trophectoderm in the blastocyst developed from AV oocytes. Collectively, AMA exaggerates the vulnerability of oocytes to cryo-damage that occurs during vitrification in mice, suggesting that the current vitrification protocols optimized for oocytes from young females should be modified for oocytes from aged women.
