Factors associated with livebirth in couples undergoing their first in vitro fertilization cycle: An internally validated prediction model
Article in Turkish journal of obstetrics and gynecology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: The aim of the study is to create a new model to predict successful outcome in assisted reproductive techniques. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted in tertiary fertility center between 2010 and 2017. Nulliparous women younger than 45 years-old undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) for the first time were included; frozen embryo transfers, canceled induction cycles, freeze-all cycles were excluded. Two prediction models were built using multivariate logistic regression with a subset of the dataset and then were internally validated using bootstrapping methods. Results: Four hundred eighty eight women were included with 136 (27.9%) live births. The basal model was built using variable age, antral follicle count (AFC), and basal luteinizing hormone (LH) levels. Age over 37 years [odds ratio (OR): 0.07, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.00-0.36] and AFC below 5 (OR: 0.15, 95% CI: 0.02-0.53) was associated with poorer outcomes whereas an LH level above 6 mIU/mL (OR: 2.24, 95% CI: 1.27-3.94) was associated with better outcomes. Optimism adjusted area under the curve (AUC) of this model was 0.68 (95% CI: 0.62-0.74). Combined model in addition to basal model variables included the length of induction cycle, the endometrial thickness at the day of transfer, grade and count of the transferred embryo. Cycles lasting more than ten days (OR: 2.23, 95% CI: 1.17-4.42), an endometrial thickness greater than 9 mm (OR: 2.07, 95% CI: 1.00-4.53) were associated with better outcomes. Optimism adjusted AUC of this model was 0.76 (95% CI: 0.70-0.81). Calibration of both models was good according to Hosmer Lemeshow test (p=0.979 and p=0.848, respectively). Conclusion: This internally validated prediction model has good calibration and can be used predicting outcomes in first time IVF/ICSI cycles with modest sensitivity.
