Fertility outcome of intravaginal insemination in women with unconsummated marriages.
Observational study in African health sciences, 2024. 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
Background: Aim: To assess the fertility outcome of intravaginal insemination in women with unconsummated marriages. Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study from January 2017 to October 2020. The study population comprised of couples with unconsummated marriages. Participants were divided into three groups: (1) women with vaginismus (2) men with erectile dysfunction(ED); and (3) men who suffered from premature ejaculation (PE). The couple was educated about the fertility period and advised to perform insemination at home on every alternate day for at least twelve cycles. Pregnancy was defined as a positive urine pregnancy test. The couple was asked to report a positive pregnancy test or follow up at the end of twelve months in case conception did not occur. Results: The study comprised of 769 couples. There were 371 couples with vaginismus, 258 with premature ejaculation and 140 with erectile dysfunction. Pregnancy was achieved in 270(72.8%) couples with vaginismus, 181(70.2%) with premature ejaculation and 72(51.4%) with erectile dysfunction. The time to conception was shortest for couples with vaginismus, 7.72±3.02 months and longest for couples with erectile dysfunction 10.81±1.53 months. Conclusion: Couples with unconsummated marriages conceive with intravaginal insemination. At home insemination is a treatment option for such couples before embarking on artificial reproductive techniques.
