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

Background: Triptorelin acetate, leuprorelin and goserelin acetate were three commonly used gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) formulations in IVF/ICSI-ET. However, current knowledge about the real-world effects on clinical outcomes of different GnRH-a formulations is limited. In this study, we aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of IVF/ICSI-ET using different GnRH-a formulations in long protocol during follicle phase. Methods: This is a retrospective study. A total of 154 infertile women undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET in long protocol during follicle phase from September 2019 to December 2023 were assigned to three groups according to different GnRH-a formulations (A: triptorelin acetate; B: leuprorelin; C: goserelin acetate). The baseline information, ovulation induction outcomes and pregnancy outcomes were compared among three groups. Student's Results: Groups A, B and C included 94, 36 and 24 patients, respectively. Compared with groups A and B, group C had significantly smaller total amount of gonadotropin (A vs B vs C: 2224.20±700.02 U vs 2266.67±884.01 U vs 1685.94±360.24 U) and shouter days of using gonadotropin (A vs B vs C: 11.61±1.91 days vs 11.83±2.48 days vs 9.50±0.98 days) ( Conclusion: Goserelin acetate was found to have good pregnancy outcomes in IVF/ICSI-ET with small amount and shout using days of gonadotropin, but there is a lack of statistical significance when compared to the pregnancy outcomes of triptorelin acetate and leuprorelin. The findings need future confirmation in larger trials or meta-analyses.
