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
backgroundA low progesterone level on the embryo transfer (ET) day significantly reduces the pregnancy rate. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the effect of adding daily 50 mg intramuscular progesterone to a total of 800 mg progesterone suppository on the MATERIALS AND
methodsThis parallel open-label clinical trial was performed on 218 IVF candidate infertile women who had <9.2 ng/ml progesterone levels on the ET day. These women were randomised to the intervention or control group using the randomisation allocation rule. In the intervention group, 50 mg progesterone was prescribed intramuscularly once daily in addition to 400 mg of progesterone suppository every 12 hours from the day of ET. The control group received only 400 mg of progesterone suppositories every 12 hours. In the case of pregnancy, the drugs above were continued until 12 weeks after the ET.
resultsClinical pregnancy occurred in 54 (50.0%) women in the intervention group and in 39 (36.8%) women in the control group, which was significantly different (P=0.035). Ongoing pregnancy occurred in 47 (43.5%) women in the intervention group, and 33 (31.1%) women in the control group, which was significantly different (P=0.042). There were no significant differences in terms of abortion and multiple pregnancy rates between the two groups.
conclusionIntramuscular injection of 50 mg progesterone significantly increases the clinical and ongoing pregnancy rates (registration number: IRCT20150105020558N6).
