Anti-Müllerian Hormone: A Predictor of Successful Intrauterine Insemination.

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
introductionThe anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) produced by the granulosa cells of ovarian follicles has been shown to correlate with ovarian reserve and is often measured for fertility therapies. In this study, we evaluated the relationship between serum AMH values and the clinical pregnancy (CP) rates of female partners with unexplained infertility undergoing intrauterine insemination utilizing varying ovarian simulation protocols.
methodsThis is a retrospective cohort study conducted among couples who underwent intrauterine insemination therapy over a period of four years at Charleston Area Medical Center, a tertiary care medical center in West Virginia, USA. Logistic regression was used to determine the best predictor of CP.
resultsA total of 509 intrauterine inseminations resulting in 81 (15.9%) Cps were analyzed. The cycles with a CP had higher mean AMH values (3.7+3.5 vs. 2.2+2.1; p<0.001). The majority of patients were nulliparous (77.0%) with a mean age of 33.6+5.0 years. After including only patients with unexplained infertility (the predominate infertility diagnosis; n=255 (50.1% of the cycles)) and stimulation cycles >10, the final sample size for the analysis was 245/509=48.1%. Following a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis, the optimal AMH cut-off point was 2.1 ng/mL with an area under the curve (AUC) equal to 0.61 and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of 0.55- 0.67 (p=0.002). The CP rate was significantly higher with the AMH >2.1 ng/mL (20.0%) compared to <2.1 ng/mL (10.0%; p=0.041). With Clomid/human gonadotropins/human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) trigger treatment, the CP rate quadrupled (odds ratio (OR): 4.6; 95% CI: 2.1-9.7; p<0.001).
conclusionThis study indicates that higher AMH levels and a more aggressive ovarian stimulation protocol for intrauterine insemination therapy (IUI) have a better probability of resulting in CP.
