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: There are 48 million couples, and 186 million individuals live with infertility globally. Dealing with infertility and its treatment can negatively influence the couple's psycho-social well-being and interpersonal relationships, which in turn affects their fertility quality of life. Most of the studies have focused on the fertility quality of life of women suffering from infertility and very few studies have seen the impact of infertility on fertility quality of life in men. Objective: To assess the fertility quality of life of the couples attending infertility clinic of a tertiary healthcare institution of New Delhi. Materials and Methods: Couples attending infertility clinic of Smt. Sucheta Kriplani Hospital (SSKH), New Delhi were included. The study period was from January 2021 to December 2021. Written informed consent was taken from study subjects. A semi-structured, self-designed interview schedule was used to collect information from study subjects. FertiQoL questionnaire was used to assess subjects' fertility quality of life. Results: Mean total score of fertility quality of life was better among husbands (57.19 ± 8.22) as compared to wives (51.30 ± 8.69). Fertility quality of life was found to be better in wives and husbands suffering from secondary infertility. Fertility quality of life was highest in wives and husbands belonging to upper class. Conclusion: In general, fertility quality of life was better in, husbands as compared to wives, wives and husbands who are suffering with secondary infertility and wives and husbands belonging to higher socio-economic status.
