Non-targeted metabolomic analysis of follicular fluid in infertile individuals with poor ovarian response.
Article in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: Poor ovarian response (POR) is a pathological condition characterized by inadequate ovarian response to gonadotropin stimulation in patients undergoing Methods: In this research, 60 follicular fluid samples were collected for a non-targeted metabolomic study, including 30 samples from POR patients and 30 from women with normal ovarian reserve. The orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis model was employed to discern separation trends between the two groups. Pathway enrichment analysis was performed using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database. Additionally, random forest and logistic regression models were utilized to identify biomarkers indicative of POR within the follicular fluid. Results: Based on data from the Human Metabolome Database, our metabolomic analysis identified 40 differential metabolites associated with POR, including 18 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated metabolites. KEGG pathway analysis revealed that these metabolites predominantly participate in glycerophospholipid metabolism, choline metabolism in cancer, autophagy processes. Notably, perillyl aldehyde emerged as a potential biomarker for POR. Conclusions: This study represents the first comprehensive examination of metabolic alterations in follicular fluid among patients with POR using non-targeted metabolomics technology. We have identified significant metabolic changes within the follicular fluid of individuals affected by POR which may offer valuable insights into therapeutic strategies for managing this condition as well as improving outcomes in assisted reproductive technologies.
