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

Female fertility decreases with age. A decline in oocyte quality plays a key role in reproductive problems in older women. Whether advanced maternal age (AMA) is associated with a decline in endometrial receptivity (ER) remains controversial. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate the relationship between AMA and ER. Eighteen eligible studies were included in this meta-analysis. Of the 18 studies, 17, 8, 14, and 9 studies reported the impact of AMA on clinical pregnancy rate (CPR), implantation rate (IR), miscarriage rate (MR), and live birth rate (LBR), respectively. The combined results showed a trend (without significance) toward lower CPR in women with AMA than in younger women. A similar trend of worse outcomes in terms of IR was observed in women with AMA. A significantly higher MR and lower LBR were observed in infertile women with AMA than in younger women. In conclusion, there was a slightly lower IR and CPR without significance; however, significantly increased MR and decreased LBR were observed in women with AMA than in younger women, indicating that AMA is related to the decline of ER. Further prospective cohort studies with a preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy model are needed to observe the relationship between AMA and ER and explore the possible mechanisms.
