Embryo Mosaicism Rate in National Referral Hospital of Indonesia Detected Using Next-Generation Sequencing: A Retrospective Study.
Article in International journal of fertility & sterility, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundChromosomal mosaicism, a phenomenon observed in a minority of embryos, showcases its prevalence and inherent unpredictability, leading to variations in embryo mosaic rates across different centers. This research endeavors to assess the prevalence of mosaicism and its characteristics within the scope of our preimplantation genetic testing-A (PGT-A) services in Indonesia. Specifically focusing on our center's experience since 2020, this study aims to elucidate mosaic rates among embryos in our care. MATERIALS AND
methodsIn a retrospective approach, we collected secondary data sourced from our PGT-A outcomes dating back to 2020. A total of 196 embryos underwent analysis, their characteristics were documented and presented descriptively. Notably, the incidence of specific chromosome abnormalities was outlined. We assess a comparative analysis to investigate the relationship between mosaicism and its corresponding clinical characteristics.
resultsIn the analysis of 196 embryos, 106 (54.1%) displayed chromosomal anomalies spanning from low-level mosaicism to whole chromosome aneuploidy. Low mosaicism was observed in 25 (12.8%) of the embryos, while high mosaicism was identified in 8 (4.1%) embryos. Notably, low-level mosaicism predominated in chromosome 9 (n=10, 5.1%), whereas abnormality prevalence was highest in chromosome 21 (n=20, 10.2%). Statistical analysis revealed no significant disparity in mean maternal age among embryos with low-level mosaicism, high mosaicism, and normal chromosomes (33.88 vs. 35 vs. 33.26 years old, respectively). However, a statistically significant difference in mean maternal age (35.84 vs. 33.26 years) was observed between embryos with aneuploidy (monosomy or trisomy) and those with normal chromosomes. Furthermore, a significant difference in high mosaicism rates was detected in patients with unexplained infertility (P<0.05).
conclusionIn contrast to the study conducted elsewhere, our center had a higher mosaicism rate. Chromosomes 9, 8, and 6 were the most frequently affected. There was a significant difference in the high mosaicism rate for PGT-Arelated unexplained infertility causes.
