Selection of fertilization strategies for different sperm parameters in vitro fertilization.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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: Fertilization is a prerequisite for successful human reproduction. The choice of clinical fertilization strategy is crucial and directly affects clinical outcomes. This study analyzes the most appropriate assisted reproductive technology (ART) strategy based on sperm parameters. Methods: Semen samples were divided into six groups based on semen progressive motility (PR) and semen density (SD): HMLD (high motility-low density) (PR ≥32% and sperm density <15×10 Results: In the PR <32% groups, the rate of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment decreased with increasing sperm concentration. Specifically, approximately 10% of in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment cycles required a rescue ICSI when sperm PR was <32% accompanied by SD ≥15×10 Conclusions: The findings of this study suggest, fertilization ability of sperm is closely related to sperm motility and density. In clinical practice, IVF strategies should be refined based on male sperm parameters.
