Reproductive outcomes in women opting for fertility preservation after fertility-sparing surgery for borderline ovarian tumors.

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
purposeWhat are the reproductive outcomes of women who had fertility preservation (FP) using either oocyte or embryo vitrification after fertility-sparing surgery (FSS) for a borderline ovarian tumor (BOT)?
methodsA retrospective, single-center cohort study was conducted between January 2013 and December 2021. Patients with BOT who resorted to FP by vitrifying oocytes or embryos were included. Both clinical and reproductive parameters were reviewed. The primary outcome was live birth.
resultsIn total, thirteen patients who performed 31 FP cycles were included. Of those, six patients achieved eight live births after a mean follow-up period of 79 months. Three further pregnancies are still ongoing. All pregnancies/live births were obtained without using their cryopreserved oocytes or embryos.
conclusionWomen who had FSS for BOT have favorable prospects of live offspring, even without the need to use their cryopreserved material. Fertility preservation in patients with BOT has to be considered as a tool to mitigate the risk of infertility that may arise in case of BOT recurrence requiring castrating surgery.
