The effect of single dose of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist injection in frozen-thawed embryo transfer on pregnancy outcomes: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

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
This systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials aimed to evaluate the effect of a single-dose gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist administration in the frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle on pregnancy outcomes. A literature search was strategically conducted using PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register. The primary outcome was the clinical pregnancy rate. The secondary outcomes combined chemical pregnancy rate, implantation rate, ongoing pregnancy rate, live birth rate, miscarriage rate, and extrauterine pregnancy rate. Out of the 1594 citations that were found, only six met the criteria for being included in the meta-analysis. The clinical pregnancy rate was higher in the treatment group than in the control group (52.05% vs. 47.29%; p=0.04; RR=1.09; 95% CI=1.00-1.18). According to subgroup analysis based on the natural cycle, the clinical pregnancy rate with the agonist administration is significantly higher (43.75% vs. 27.35%; p=0.01; RR=1.6; 95% CI=1.10-2.32). However, there was no difference between the groups in terms of artificial cycles (p=0.80; 95% CI=0.96-1.20). The secondary outcomes did not show significant differences. We concluded that supplementing with a single dose of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist can marginally increase the clinical pregnancy rate, particularly in the natural cycle. Other pregnancy outcomes do not improve with the treatment.
