Adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes of preimplantation genetic testing with trophectoderm biopsy: a retrospective cohort study of 3373 intracytoplasmic sperm injection single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer cycles.

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
purposeTo investigate whether trophectoderm biopsy increases the risk of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer cycles.
methodsThis respective cohort study enrolled 3373 ICSI single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer cycles with and without trophectoderm biopsy. Statistical methods including univariate logistic regression analysis, multivariate logistic regression analysis, and stratified analyses were performed to explore the impact of trophectoderm biopsy on adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes.
resultsThe rates of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes were comparable between the two groups. Univariate analysis showed that the live birth rate (45.15% vs. 40.75%; P = 0.010) in the biopsied group was statistically higher than that in the unbiopsied group, and the rates of miscarriage (15.40% vs. 20.00%; P = 0.011) and birth defects (0.58% vs. 2.16%; P = 0.007) were statistically lower in the biopsied group. After adjusting for confounding factors, the rates of miscarriage (aOR = 0.74; 95% CI = 0.57-0.96; P = 0.022) and birth defects (aOR = 0.24, 95% CI = 0.08-0.70, P = 0.009) in the biopsied group were significantly lower than those in the unbiopsied group. Stratified analyses showed that the birth defects rate after biopsy was significantly reduced in the subgroups of age < 35 years old, BMI ≥ 24 kg/m
conclusionPreimplantation genetic testing (PGT) with trophectoderm biopsy does not increase the risk of adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes in ICSI single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer cycles, and PGT can effectively reduce the rates of miscarriage and birth defects.
