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

Background Infertility is a public health issue with a significant impact on the well-being of affected couples. Aim This paper aims to detect the determinants of pregnancy and their outcome after assisted reproductive therapy (ART) in a sample of Palestinian society. Methods A retrospective observational study was carried out at Razan Medical Center for Infertility. Subjects were assigned into twelve categories based on the type of infertility (primary versus secondary), the cause of infertility, and the treatment modality. Age at marriage, age at presentation, duration of infertility, in addition to regularity of menstruation, were also studied. Biochemical pregnancy was considered the endpoint for the purpose of the analysis. Results We reviewed the files of 459 subjects diagnosed with infertility. 79.74% had primary infertility while 20.26% had secondary. 28.85% were found to be infertile due to anovulation, 2.86% due to endometriosis, 16.74% attributed to male factor, and 3.3% had tubal damage. 13.43% of cases were multifactorial while 34.80% were idiopathic. Four biochemical markers were assessed in our study: thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) (
