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.

Abstract

purposeWe aimed to identify the correlation between morphological pronuclear (PN) status and the genetically determined ploidy configuration in preimplantation embryos.

methodsA retrospective observational study was conducted on 1982 embryos displaying normal fertilization and 380 embryos showing an atypical PN pattern, tested for aneuploidies and ploidy status via preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) between May 2019 and May 2024. Ploidy prediction was performed using a validated targeted-NGS approach and a proprietary bioinformatic pipeline analyzing SNPs B-allele frequency information. Ploidy results were obtained in relation to the morphological PN pattern and further stratified by mode of PN observation, maternal age, and embryo quality parameters.

resultsAbnormal ploidy results in 2PN-derived embryos were 1% (n = 20/1982): 0.8% showed triploidy and 0.2% haploidy. Ploidy results in relation to PN number in atypical fertilization were as follows: 0PN (n = 150/380) associated with 87.3% of diploidy, 8.7% of haploidy, and 4.0% of triploidy; 1PN-derived blastocysts (n = 73/153) were haploid in 47.7% of cases, 6.5% were triploid, and 45.7% diploid; 2.1PN (n = 23/280) and 3PN patterns (n = 54/280) predicted a triploid result in 34.8% and 74.1% of cases, respectively. PN observation with time-lapse increased ploidy status predictivity from 28.3% to 80.4% (p < 0.01) and reduced expected diploid rates to 19.6% (p < 0.01). Diploidy rate was higher for maternal age ≤ 35 years and for morphologically high-grade embryos.

conclusionMorphological PN check can be improved by incorporating ploidy analysis within the conventional PGT workflow. Euploid 2PN-derived embryos can be further selected removing haploids and triploids, and some atypical PN pattern can be better classified.
