Serum progesterone level in luteal phase improves pregnancy rate in fresh cycles with blastocyst embryo transfer.
Article in JBRA assisted reproduction, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveTo assess the association between serum level of progesterone during stimulation and in the luteal phase with pregnancy rate in a cohort of patients undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) on day 5.
methodsRetrospective Cohort Study. Patients: 62 infertile women, aged 24-42 years, undergoing ART at our center from May 2019 to May 2021. Progesterone was evaluated during ovarian stimulation on Day 2, Day 6, and Day 8 of stimulation, day of trigger (P4dhCG), and on the day of blastocyst transfer with 5 days of progesterone supplementation (P4d5+). We also calculated the difference of P4d5+ with P4dhCG. (∆P4). Then we divided the patients into two groups based on progesterone serum levels at P4d5+; <10ng/ml (Group A), ≥10ng/ml (Group B). The Student's t-test was performed for continuous variables; Mann-Whitney's Test and Spearman's Test were used where appropriate for categorical variables. p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
resultsThere were positive correlations between βhCG positive with P4d5+ (p<0.001; Rho 0.770) and ∆P4 (p<0.001; Rho 0.703). The pregnancy rate doubled when the serum progesterone level was ≥10ng/ml on the fifth day of progesterone supplementation compared with P4<10ng/ml (44% vs. 21%, respectively).
conclusionsThe pregnancy rate was positively correlated with the serum P4 level on the fifth day of progesterone supplementation and with the difference between the serum progesterone level in the Dd5+ / dhCG. A higher pregnancy rate was observed when serum progesterone level on the fifth day of progesterone supplementation was ≥10ng/ml.
