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
purposeWomen carriers of FMR1 premutation are at increased risk of early ovarian dysfunction and even premature ovarian insufficiency. The aim of this study was to examine a possible association between FMR1 permutation and numeric sex chromosome variations.
methodsA retrospective case-control study conducted in the reproductive center of a university-affiliated medical center. The primary outcome measure was the rate of sex chromosomal numerical aberrations, as demonstrated by haplotype analyses, in FMR1 premutation carriers compared to X-linked preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic/single gene defect (PGT-M) cycles for other indications that do not affect the ovarian follicles and oocytes.
resultsA total of 2790 embryos with a final genetic analysis from 577 IVF PGT-M cycles were included in the final analysis. Mean age was similar between the groups, however, FMR1 carriers required more gonadotropins, and more women were poor responders with three or less oocytes collected. The ratio of embryos carrying a numeric sex chromosome variation was similar: 8.3% (138/1668) of embryos in the FMR1 group compared to 7.1% (80/1122) in the controls. A subgroup analysis based on age and response to stimulation has not demonstrated a significant difference either.
conclusionsAlthough carriers of FMR1 premutation exhibit signs of reduced ovarian response, it does not seem to affect the rate of numeric sex chromosomal variation compared to women undergoing PGT-M for other indications. This suggests that the mechanism for chromosomal number aberrations in women at advanced maternal age are different to those FMR1 premutation carriers with poor ovarian reserve.
