IVF/ICSI Outcomes After a Freeze-All Strategy: an Observational Cohort Study.
Observational study in Reproductive sciences (Thousand Oaks, Calif.), 2023. 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
In order to inform patients undergoing ART regarding their chances for motherhood, it seems useful to describe "freeze all" outcomes according to the different potential indications. The goal of this study was to examine the impact of a "freeze-all approach" on the cumulative live birth rate (cLBR) according to the indication. It is a cohort study including women who had undergone ovarian stimulation (OS) using an antagonist protocol with GnRH agonist triggering between 09.2016 and 09.2018 followed by a freeze-all cycle of blastocyst embryos. The ART outcomes were compared between the two main indications of the freeze-all strategy which were in our cohort: risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) and endometriosis. The ART outcomes were also described for the others indications (inadequate endometrium and/or premature progesterone elevation at trigger day, two or more previous ART failures, and autoimmune disease and/or a high risk of thromboembolic disease (AI and/or TE risk)). In total, 658 women were included. The cLBR in the total population was 37.7% (248/658). The cLBR was significantly higher in the "OHSS risk" group (133/281, 47.3%) than in the "endometriosis" group (69/190, 36.3%) (p = 0.017). No significant differences were noted regarding perinatal outcomes, except a significantly higher risk of placenta praevia (PP) observed in the "endometriosis" group (10.1%) (p = 0.002). The "freeze-all approach" yielded good results in terms of the cLBR and especially in case of OHSS risk. These data should be taken into account when informing patients about the ART strategy and their chances of motherhood.
