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

objectiveThis study aimed to develop a predictive model for the risk of no usable blastocyst formation in patients with normal ovarian reserve undergoing IVF.

methodsThe model was derived from 7,901 patients who underwent their first oocyte retrieval and subsequent blastocyst culture, of which 446 cases have no usable blastocysts formed. Univariate regression analyses, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis were used to identify the association of patient and cycle characteristics with the presence of no available blastocyst and to create a nomogram. The performance of the nomogram was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve, the net benefit threshold of prediction was determined using decision curve analysis (DCA).

resultsMultivariate analysis identified three independent predictors: the number of day 3 (D3) embryos, the number of high-quality D3 embryos, and the number of embryos used for blastocyst culture. A nomogram model was developed and internally validated using bootstrapping, demonstrating good discriminative ability with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.879(95%CI: 0.861-0.890).

conclusionsThe cycle-based nomogram can anticipate the probability of no available blastocyst formation in IVF/ICSI treatment. This can help doctors make appropriate clinical judgments and assist patients in managing their expectations effectively.
