Which endometrial preparation protocol provides better pregnancy and perinatal outcomes for endometriosis patients in frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles? A retrospective study on 1413 patients.
Article in Journal of ovarian research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
objectiveTo determine the optimal endometrial preparation protocol for a frozen embryo transfer in patients with endometriosis.
designRetrospective cohort study.
settingTertiary care academic medical center. PATIENT(S): One thousand four hundred thirteen patients with endometriosis who underwent oocyte aspiration from 2015 to 2020 and frozen embryo transfer from 2016 to 2020 and received natural cycle, hormone replacement treatment with or without GnRHa pretreatment endometrial preparation. INTERVENTION(S): None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Clinical pregnancy rate, live birth rate, miscarriage rate, multiple pregnancy rate, biochemical pregnancy rate and ectopic pregnancy rate. Singleton live births were assessed for perinatal outcomes and obstetric complications. RESULT(S): There were no differences in clinical pregnancy outcomes or prenatal outcomes among the three commonly used endometrial preparation protocols for frozen embryo transfer cycles in patients with endometriosis. Results remained after screening variables using univariate logistic regression into multivariate logistic regression. No advantages or disadvantages were found among the three endometrial preparation protocols in patients with endometriosis. CONCLUSION(S): Natural cycle, hormone replacement cycle, or hormone replacement treatment with GnRHa pretreatment showed no superiority or inferiority in pregnancy and perinatal outcomes in patients with endometriosis.
