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

objectiveThe embryo implantation includes a complex sequence of signaling events, comprising numerous molecular mediators, such as ovarian hormones, cytokines, adhesion molecules and, growth factors. One of the critical factors in angiogenesis is the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The VEGF plays a pivotal role in embryonic development, decidua vascularization and placental angiogenesis. Furthermore, the P53 gene and its negative regulator, murine double minute 2 (MDM2), are major players in reproductive processes. This study aimed to assess the association of polymorphisms of the VEGF and the MDM2 genes with idiopathic recurrent implantation failure.

methodsWe genotyped 60 women with previous idiopathic recurrent implantation failures and 60 fertile women as controls. Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and Sanger sequencing were used for genotyping the rs2010963 and the rs1570360 polymorphisms in VEGF; and the rs2279744 in MDM2 genes.

resultsResults indicated a higher frequency of the VEGF rs1570360 AA genotype and A allele in patients with a history of idiopathic implantation failure [OR=6.4 (1.22 - 33.64), p-value=0.02)]. However, the frequency of VEGF +405 G/C and MDM2 SNP309 T/G [(OR=3 (0.5 - 16) p-value=0.2, OR=1.18 (0.3 - 3.7) p-value=0.7, respectively)] genotypes were not significantly different between cases and controls.

conclusionsThe VEGF polymorphism may influence embryo implantation and the VEGF rs1570360 AA genotype may predispose to the risk of recurrent implantation failure after IVF.
