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

Avoiding aneuploid embryo transfers has been shown to improve pregnancy outcomes in patients with implantation failure and pregnancy loss. This retrospective cohort study aims to analyze the correlation of time-lapse (TL)-based variables and numeric blastocyst morphological scores (TLBMSs) with different mosaic levels. In total, 918 biopsied blastocysts with time-lapse assessments at a uniform time-point were subjected to next-generation sequencing-based preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy. In consideration of patient- and cycle-related confounding factors, all redefined blastocyst morphology components of low-grade blastocysts, that is, expansion levels (odds ratio [OR] = 0.388, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.217-0.695; OR = 0.328, 95% CI = 0.181-0.596; OR = 0.343, 95% CI = 0.179-0.657), inner cell mass grades (OR = 0.563, 95% CI = 0.333-0.962; OR = 0.35, 95% CI = 0.211-0.58; OR = 0.497, 95% CI = 0.274-0.9), and trophectoderm grades (OR = 0.29, 95% CI = 0.178-0.473; OR = 0.242, 95% CI = 0.143-0.411; OR = 0.3, 95% CI = 0.162-0.554), were less correlated with mosaic levels ≤20%, <50%, and ≤80% as compared with those of top-grade blastocysts (
