Detailed Morphological Analysis of Cryoinjury in Human Ovarian Tissue Following Vitrification or Slow Freezing.

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
Cryopreservation of human ovarian tissue represents a key procedure for fertility preservation. The two most widely used cryopreservation methods for human ovarian cortex samples are slow freezing\thawing (SF\T) and vitrification\warming (V\W). The aim of the present study was to analyze the effects of SF\T and V\W using a metal chamber, on specific follicle and oocyte structures and on the stromal organization post-cryopreservation. We did histology analysis of SF\T and V\W ovarian fragments from nine healthy subjects. Overall results showed that cryopreserved tissues presented significant rates of damage in primordial and primary follicles. Altered nuclear structure of primordial follicles and cell detachment from primordial and primary follicles were the main injuries observed after V/W and SF/T. The stromal components were similarly well preserved after cryopreservation. We conclude that both cryopreservation methods may be used for fertility preservation purposes with similar outcomes in terms of follicular and stromal integrity. Detachment of follicle cells from basal membrane represents an important cryoinjury that deserves further investigation.
