Putative Predictive Value of Etiological and Clinical Factors on Sperm Retrieval Outcomes in Non-Obstructive Azoospermia Using Micro-TESE: A Retrospective Study.

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
Non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) is a condition of testicular failure caused by various factors. To retrieve sperm in NOA patients, microdissection testicular sperm extraction (micro-TESE) is a highly effective technique. The present study aimed to evaluate successful sperm retrieval (SSR) in NOA patients across different etiologies in the Iranian population to identify predictive factors. This retrospective analysis included 566 NOA patients undergoing micro-TESE from 2018 to 2023, with 58 histories of Cryptorchidism, 40 Klinefelter syndrome (KS), 6 Y chromosomal microdeletions (YCMDs), 6 histories of chemotherapy, 5 mumps orchitis, and 451 patients with idiopathic reasons. The overall SSR was 43.2%, with a significantly lower SSR in the KS group (
