[Fertility preservation options before gonadotoxic antirheumatic treatment : A review].
Review in Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cyclophosphamide is still clinically used in rheumatic diseases with severe disease courses. Cyclophosphamide has a pronounced gonadotoxic effect largely depending on the cumulative dose. The risk of amenorrhea is reported to be in the range of 12-54% and is dependent on the age of the patient at initiation of treatment. Every patient of reproductive age should therefore be offered counseling on options for fertility protection. There are 3 options for fertility protection: oocyte harvesting and cryopreservation after a hormonal stimulation of 10-14 days, ovarian wedge resection and cryopreservation and administration of a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist. The decision whether and, if so, which treatment should be performed is made in close consultation between the patient, rheumatologists and reproductive physicians and depends on the available treatment time window, the age of the patient and the severity of the underlying disease.
