Association of ABO blood groups with ovarian reserve: a retrospective cohort study in Chinese Han women younger than 40 years with infertility.
Article in Journal of ovarian research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundOvarian reserve reflects both the quantity and quality of oocytes available for procreation and is affected by many known and unknown factors. ABO blood type is related to several infertility processes, but it is unclear whether and how ABO blood type affects ovarian reserve.
objectiveThe purpose of the study was to explore the correlation between ABO blood types and ovarian reserve in infertile Chinese Han women under 40 years of age undergoing the in vitro fertilization (IVF)/ intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI)-embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET) treatment.
methodsWomen aged < 40 years who underwent IVF/ICSI-ET at our institution and had a documented ABO blood type were eligible for this study. In this study, patients were divided into two groups according to the diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) group (AMH < 1.1 ng/mL, AFC < 6) and the non-diminished ovarian reserve (non-DOR) group (AMH ≥ 1.1 ng/mL, AFC ≥ 6). The relationship between ovarian reserve and ABO blood group was determined by correlation analysis.
resultsIn this retrospective cohort study, clinical data were collected from 1690 Chinese Han women treated with IVF/ ICSI-ET in hospital records between April 2019 and March 2020 in the affiliated hospital of Southwest Medical University, located in Luzhou, China. The differences in age, duration of infertility, BMI, FSH, FSH / LH, and p (DOR vs non-DOR) for each parameter (DOR vs non-DOR) were statistically significant, and the differences in LH and E2 were not statistically significant. ABO blood groups were most prevalent in the DOR group with O (143, 34.8%) and A (122, 29.7%) and in the non-DOR group with A (428, 33.5%) and O (419, 32.8%). ABO blood groups were most prevalent in the DOR group with O (n = 57, 30.5%) and A (n = 54, 28.9%) and in the non-DOR group with A (n = 335, 34.0%) and O (n = 323, 32.8%) were the most frequent in the non-DOR group.
conclusionsIn this retrospective cohort study, we confirmed the lack of a significant association between ABO blood type and ovarian reserve. Further studies are needed to clarify whether there is any prognostic correlation between ABO blood group and ovarian reserve in women undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET.
