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

Objective: To report a unique case of total fertilization failure (TFF) after in vitro fertilization with intracytoplasmic sperm injection related to homozygous Design: Case report. Setting: Academic fertility center. Patients: A 25-year-old woman and her 35-year-old partner with a history of near-complete fertilization failure after 2 cycles of in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Interventions: Consultation with medical and commercial genetic testing for Main Outcome Measures: Oocyte fertilization. Results: The patient was homozygous for Conclusions: In the setting of TFF, early consideration should be given to genetic testing to assist couples in clinical decision-making and help limit the financial and emotional burden associated with unsuccessful fertility intervention.
