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

Objective: To explore factors influencing high-quality embryo rate in long protocols for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) during in vitro fertilization (IVF). Methods: It was a retrospective case-control study including patients receiving assisted pregnancy treatment at the Reproductive Medicine Department of the Maternal & Child Care Center of Qinhuangdao from January 2018 to October 2023. This study adopted 724 treatment cycles using COH involving intermediate-acting and long-acting protocols. According to the high-quality embryo rate on D3, the enrolled patients were divided into Group-A for control (high-quality embryo rate ≥40%, n=297) and Group-B without high-quality embryo (excellent embryo rate=0, n=427). Factors with P<0.05 in the univariate analysis were incorporated into the Logistic regression model for binary logistic regression analysis. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in male age, years of infertility, body mass index (BMI), baseline follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels, AMH, total gonadotropin (Gn)dose, total days of Gn administration, sperm concentration, motility, normal morphology rate, and LH levels on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) injection between Group-A and Group-B (all p>0.05). In addition, the Logistic binary regression analysis showed that in the cycle without high-quality embryos on D3, elevated progesterone on the day of hCG injection was an independent risk factor affecting the developmental potential of late-stage embryos. Conclusion: For cycles with poor embryo quality, the increase in progesterone levels in the late stage of COH has a significant negative impact on the formation of effective blastocysts.
