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

backgroundSpecific polymorphisms might influence controlled ovarian stimulation in women undergoing assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs). Data regarding possible interactions of these polymorphisms are still scanty. The aim of this analysis was to evaluate the effect of polymorphisms of gonadotropins and their receptors in women undergoing ART.

methodsA total of 94 normogonadotropic patients from three public ART units were enrolled. Patients underwent a gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) long down-regulation protocol with a starting dose of 150 IU of recombinant follicular stimulating hormone (FSH) daily. Eight polymorphisms were genotyped.

resultsA total of 94 women (mean age 30.71 ± 2.61) were recruited. Fewer fertilized and mature oocytes were retrieved in homozygous carriers of luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor (LHCGR) 291 (T/T) than in heterozygous C/T carriers (

conclusionsOur study demonstrated that specific polymorphisms affect the response to ovarian stimulation. Despite this finding, more robust studies are required to establish the clinical utility of genotype analysis before ovarian stimulation.
