Do serum vitamin D levels affect assisted reproductive outcomes and perinatal outcomes in young non-PCOS patients? A retrospective study.
Article in Archives of gynecology and obstetrics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeThis study aimed to determine the influence of serum vitamin D levels on assisted reproductive and perinatal outcomes in young non-polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients.
methodsA total of 3397 non-PCOS women under 35 years who underwent their first IVF/ICSI cycle at the Reproductive Medicine Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, from 2018 to 2019, were included. The women were categorized into two groups based on their serum 25(OH)D concentrations: deficient group [25(OH)D < 50 nmol/L] and non-deficient group [25(OH)D ≥ 50 nmol/L]. Ovulation induction results, clinical pregnancy rate, cumulative live birth rate (CLBR), and perinatal outcomes of both groups were compared.
resultsA total of 1113 non-PCOS women had successful pregnancies in their first completed IVF cycle. Comparison of laboratory results between the two groups revealed a significantly higher number of oocytes retrieved in the vitamin D-non-deficient group (15.2 ± 6.8 vs. 14.5 ± 6.7, p = 0.015). After controlling for confounding factors, there was no significant difference in the CLBR between the vitamin D-deficient group and the non-deficient group (71.0%, 1,973/2,778 vs. 69.0%, 427/619, p = 0.314, unadjusted). The prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) was higher in the vitamin D-deficient group than in the vitamin D-non-deficient group in both fresh-cycle singleton live births (3.8% vs. 1.2%) and twin live births (2.3% vs. 1.5%).
conclusionThis study demonstrated that vitamin D-deficient group had a lower number of oocytes retrieved than the non-deficient group and a higher prevalence of GDM, suggesting that vitamin D deficiency impacts assisted pregnancies and perinatal outcomes in infertile non-PCOS women. However, further studies are required to confirm these findings.
