Review in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Background: 17α-hydroxylase/17, 20-lyase deficiency (17-OHD) is caused by the mutations of the Methods: Two Chinese infertile female patients clinically diagnosed as partial 17-OHD were enrolled and their pedigree investigations were performed. Hormones were determined to depict the endocrine conditions of partial 17-OHD female patients. The adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) stimulation test was performed to evaluate the functions of the adrenal cortex. Genotype analysis was conducted by next-generation sequencing (NGS) and Sanger sequencing was used to verify the results. IVF-ET was performed for the treatment of their infertility. Specifically, the progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) protocol was chosen for the controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) cycles, and the hormone replacement treatment (HRT) protocol was adopted for the endometrial preparation in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. Results: Hormone assays revealed a reduced estradiol (E2) and testosterone (T) level, and an elevated progesterone (P4) level. The classic ACTH stimulating test evidenced a suboptimal response of cortisol to ACTH. Genotype analysis demonstrated that the proband1 carried two variants: c.1459_1467del (p.Asp487_Phe489del) Conclusions: Partial 17-OHD female patients manifested menstrual cycle disorders and infertility clinically; displayed high P4 and low E2 and T; showed sparse pubic hair in physical examinations; and revealed multiple ovarian cysts in ultrasonic visualization. Moreover, the pregnancy potentials of infertile partial 17-OHD women seemed to increase with the adoption of IVF-ET. Considering the sustained elevated P4 level, PPOS is a feasible protocol for them in COH.
