1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Background: Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) allows for the evaluation of embryo genetic information prior to implantation, enabling the selection of normal embryos for transfer and ultimately leading to better pregnancy outcomes. In this study, we explored factors that influence clinical outcomes of patients undergoing PGT. The effects of blastocyst grading and biopsy dates on clinical outcomes were also analyzed. Methods: The clinical data and pregnancy outcomes of 428 PGT cycles performed in the Reproductive Medicine Department of the Northern Theater General Hospital between January 2017 and December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Multifactorial logistic regression analysis and nomograms were used to determine factors influencing pregnancy outcomes. The impact of D5 blastocysts (290 cycles) and D6 blastocysts (138 cycles) with different quality levels on clinical outcomes was also compared. Results: Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that age, BMI, endometrial thickness, and embryo quality of women affected PGT clinical outcomes. Women aged <40 years or with a body mass index (BMI) >18.5 and endometrial thickness>1.0 cm had a significantly higher pregnancy success rate. Compared to that of D6 blastocyst biopsy, D5 blastocyst biopsy was associated with a higher pregnancy success rate but a similar live birth rate. No significant differences were observed in the pregnancy and live birth rates of D5 and D6 high-quality blastocysts. Conclusion: To achieve better pregnancy outcomes after PGT, considering blastocyst grading and biopsy dates when transferring embryos is essential for improving pregnancy outcomes. Furthermore, patients should adjust their BMI, endometrial receptivity, and endometrial thickness and pattern.
