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
objectiveThis study investigated potential relationships between the kinetics of nucleolar precursor bodies (NPBs) in the pronucleus and developmental morphokinetics and euploidy in human preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) cycles.
methodsThe morphokinetic analysis of 200 blastocysts obtained from 53 PGT-A cycles was performed retrospectively in a time-lapse incubator. At the time of pronuclear breakdown (PNBD), we categorized the blastocysts into two groups based on the kinetic degree of clustering NPBs at the interface of the two pronuclei: clustered NPBs (CL) and non-clustered NPBs (NCL). We then compared morphokinetic parameters, abnormal behavioral events, and the rate of aneuploidy between the two groups.
resultsPronuclear fading and the first cleavage occurred earlier in the NCL group than in the CL group. However, the initiation of blastocyst formation and blastocyst expansion was delayed in the NCL group relative to the CL group. No differences were found in the rate of abnormal cleavage events, such as multinucleation at the 2-cell stage, direct cleavage from one to three cells, and from two to five cells between the CL and NCL groups. However, the fragmentation rate at the 8-cell stage was higher in the NCL group than in the CL group (10.3% vs. 1.9%, p<0.05). Additionally, the euploid rate in the CL group was significantly higher than in the NCL group (37.9% vs. 12.4%, p<0.05).
conclusionThese results demonstrate the effectiveness of combining NPB clustering at PNBD with morphokinetics as a parameter for selecting embryos with higher developmental potential in in vitro fertilization.
