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

backgroundDeclining oocyte quality in women with advanced age has been a major impediment to assisted reproductive treatments' (ART) success rate. However, aging is often accompanied by a diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Cumulus cells (CCs) are known to play an important role in the development and maturation of oocytes, and the quality of CCs actually reflects the quality of the oocyte. In this study, CCs were used to investigate the real reasons for the decline in oocyte quality in older women.

methodsNinety-nine CC samples were subdivided into 4 different groups according to the different age and ovarian reserve status. Other than clinical ART results, transcriptional expression profiles were performed in CCs to detect the differences.

resultsThe results were that DOR, no matter in young or advanced age group, was found to be significantly associated with adverse ART outcomes. Of note, there were no statistically significant changes in ART outcomes in the group at advanced age with normal ovarian reserve (NOR), compared to the young with NOR. DOR induced a series of transcriptional variations in CCs commonly enriched in oxygen metabolism.

conclusionOur results revealed that the ART outcomes in advanced patients were attributable to the DOR. The oxygen metabolic changes may interfere with CCs' function of supporting oocytes. This study can provide guidance for ART practice that not age but ovarian reserve status is the main predictor for ART outcomes, and ovarian reserve status should be timely assessed when the clinical manifestations are still mild in elderly women.
