Trends and outcomes of fresh and frozen donor oocyte cycles in the United States.

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 examine trends, characteristics, and outcomes of donor oocyte embryo transfer cycles by original oocyte and resultant embryo state and determine whether oocyte state (fresh or frozen) is differentially associated with clinical pregnancy, live birth, and term, healthy birthweight neonates among singleton live births.
designRetrospective cohort study.
settingNational study. PATIENT(S): Patients undergoing donor oocyte embryo transfer cycles in the United States reporting to the National Assisted Reproductive Technology Surveillance System from 2013 to 2020 MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Annual numbers and proportions of total donor oocyte embryo transfer cycles stratified by oocyte and embryo state and single embryo transfer cycles resulting in the live birth of term (≥37 weeks gestation), healthy birthweight (≥2,500 g) singletons during 2013-2020. Rates of live birth and term, healthy birthweight neonates among singleton live births for 2018-2020 are also reported. Relative risks examine associations between donor oocyte state and live birth and term, healthy birthweight neonates among singleton live births resulting from donor oocyte embryo transfer cycles. RESULT(S): From 2013 to 2020, there were 135,085 donor oocyte embryo transfer cycles, of which the proportions increased for frozen embryos (42.3%-76.6%), fresh embryos using frozen donor oocytes (19.9%-68.3%) and single embryo transfers (36.4%-85.5%). During 2018-2020, there were 48,679 donor oocyte embryo transfer cycles. Rates of live birth were lower with frozen compared with fresh donor oocytes for both fresh (46.2%, 55.9%; adjusted relative risk [aRR], 0.83; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.79-0.87) and frozen (41.3%, 45.8%; aRR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.91-0.98) embryo transfer cycles. Among singleton live births, rates of delivering a term, healthy birth weight neonate were similar for frozen compared with fresh donor oocyte transfer cycles among fresh (77.3%, 77.2%; aRR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.98-1.03) and frozen (75.6%, 75.1%; aRR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.99-1.04) embryos. CONCLUSION(S): In this national study of donor oocyte embryo transfer cycles, frozen embryo transfers, fresh embryo transfers using frozen oocytes, and single embryo transfers increased. Although frozen compared with fresh oocytes were associated with a slightly reduced rate of live birth, rates of term, healthy birthweight neonates among singleton live births were comparable between donor oocyte states.
