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

High-content time-lapse embryo imaging assessed by machine learning is revolutionizing the field of in vitro fertilization (IVF). However, the vast majority of IVF embryos are not transferred to the uterus, and these masses of embryos with unknown implantation outcomes are ignored in current efforts that aim to predict implantation. Here, whether, and to what extent the information encoded within "sibling" embryos from the same IVF cohort contributes to the performance of machine learning-based implantation prediction is explored. First, it is shown that the implantation outcome is correlated with attributes derived from the cohort siblings. Second, it is demonstrated that this unlabeled data boosts implantation prediction performance. Third, the cohort properties driving embryo prediction, especially those that rescued erroneous predictions, are characterized. The results suggest that predictive models for embryo implantation can benefit from the overlooked, widely available unlabeled data of sibling embryos by reducing the inherent noise of the individual transferred embryo.
