Detecting partial premature ovulation during follicular aspiration compromises the quantity, but not the quality, of the oocytes retrieved in stimulated in vitro fertilization (IVF) 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
objectiveTo analyze if partial premature ovulation (PPO) detection during oocyte pick-up (OPU) impairs the quality of the retrieved oocyte cohort.
methodsThe PPO concept refers to the situation when premature ovulation happens only in some of the follicles and it is detected during OPU. This study constitutes a retrospective analysis performed in an infertility clinic (Spain) during 2016-2021 with patients undergoing OPU after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation for an in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. Study code: 2110-VLC-091- VG, registered on December 9 2021. Data from women with PPO (n=111) were compared to a matched control sample of cycles without PPO (n=333) at a proportion of 1:3.
resultsCycles were matched for age, body mass index (BMI), treatment year, embryo genetic analysis and stimulation protocol type. The mean numbers of oocytes (6.1 vs. 11.2), mature oocytes (4.7 vs. 8.8), correctly fertilized oocytes (3.6 vs. 6.6) and top-quality blastocysts (0.9 vs. 1.8) were significantly lower in the PPO group than the nonPPO group (p<0.05). However, maturation, fertilization, top-quality blastocyst and pregnancy rates were statistically comparable among groups (p>0.05).
conclusionsCycles with PPO have fewer available oocytes and, thus, fewer available embryos for transfer, al though their quality is intact, and still offer chances of pregnancy in these cases. Hence cycle cancellation may not be worth associated money, time and morale losses once PPO is detected.
