The association between paternal diabetes mellitus and successful pregnancy-Examined in a nationwide population undergoing reproductive treatment.
Article in Andrology, 2025. 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
backgroundAbout 15% of all pregnancies end in pregnancy loss. As most studies have focused on maternal factors little is known regarding the influence of paternal factors on the chance of successful pregnancy.
objectivesThis cohort study aims to assess the chance of biochemical pregnancy, clinical pregnancy, and live-born children in couples where the male partner has diabetes mellitus (DM). MATERIALS AND
methodsWe performed a nationwide cohort study. Couples undergoing assisted reproductive technology treatment from 2006 to 2019 were included. The exposed cohorts comprised embryo transfers in couples with paternal type 1 DM (T1DM), type 2 DM (T2DM), or mixed type DM (TMDM). The unexposed cohort included embryo transfers in couples without paternal DM.
resultsA total of 101,875 embryo transfers were included. Of these, 503 males had T1DM, 225 males had T2DM, 263 males had TMDM, and 100,884 did not have DM. For paternal T1DM, the adjusted OR for achieving a biochemical pregnancy, clinical pregnancy, and live-born child were 0.97 (95% CI 0.77-1.23), 1.08 (95% CI 0.65-1.79), and 0.75 (95% CI 0.49-1.14), respectively. For paternal T2DM, the adjusted OR for achieving a biochemical pregnancy, clinical pregnancy, and live-born child were 0.80 (95% CI 0.56;1.16), 0.67 (95% CI 0.32-1.41), and 1.03 (95% CI 0.48-2.20), respectively. For the paternal TMDM, the adjusted OR for achieving a biochemical pregnancy, clinical pregnancy and livebirth were 0.95 (95% CI 0.67-1.33), 1.31 (95% CI 0.56-2.92), and 1.19 (95% CI 0.59-2.38), respectively.
conclusionPaternal DM was not associated with a statistically significant decreased chance of biochemical pregnancy, clinical pregnancy, or live birth.
