Oocyte and zygote development potential in minimal stimulation, natural cycle and conventionally stimulated IVF: an international multi-centre retrospective cohort study.
Article in Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05125497 (Natural Cycle, Minimal Stimulation and Conventional IVF), which is not on this map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.

Abstract
purposeThe aim of this research is to assess the development potential of oocytes and zygotes obtained from Natural cycle IVF (NC-IVF), different minimal stimulation IVF (Min stim-IVF) and conventionally stimulated IVF (cIVF) treatment protocols.
methodsInternational multi-centre retrospective cohort study including 1483 NC-IVF, 1208 Min stim-IVF, and 1892 cIVF cycles performed in 8 IVF centres between 01.2022 and 03.2023. The five Min stim-IVF protocols analysed included low dose clomiphene citrate, aromatase inhibitors, low dose (≤ 100 IU) gonadotropins, each alone or in combination. For each IVF protocol, we assessed and modelled the transition probabilities of (i) each observed oocyte developing into a zygote, (ii) each observed zygote developing into a gestational sac and (iii) each observed zygote developing into a live birth.
resultsAll modelled transition probabilities were found to be maximal in NC-IVF, minimal in cIVF with Min stim-IVF in between. The probability of transition from oocyte to zygote was 0.72 for NC-IVF, 0.56 to 0.65 for Min stim-IVF protocols and 0.54 for cIVF. The probability of transition from zygote to gestational sac was 0.21 for NC-IVF, 0.14 to 0.19 for Min stim-IVF and 0.09 for cIVF protocols and from zygote to live birth 0.16 for NC-IVF, 0.09 to 0.16 for Min stim-IVF and 0.06 for cIVF protocols.
conclusionsThe transition probabilities of oocytes and zygotes appears to be higher in NC-IVF, followed by Min stim-IVF and then cIVF, suggesting that increasing dosages of gonadotropins might have a negative effect on oocyte/zygote development potential.
