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

Objective: This study aims to investigate the risk factors associated with cervical insufficiency (CI) in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) who have undergone Methods: This study included 746 women diagnosed with PCOS. These women successfully achieved pregnancy through IVF-ET between 2016 and 2023 and subsequently delivered at Peking University Third Hospital. Women were categorized into a study group and a control group based on the presence of CI. Additionally, stratified analyses were performed within each group according to whether fresh or frozen embryos were used for transfer, to investigate the clinical characteristics and risk factors associated with CI. Results: In women with PCOS undergoing IVF-ET, BMI (OR=1.195, 95% CI: 1.043-1.290, P<0.001), AMH (OR=1.158, 95% CI: 1.092-1.227, P<0.001), frequency of hysteroscopy operations (OR=1.587, 95% CI: 1.202-2.094, P=0.001), prior gravidity (OR=1.956, 95% CI: 1.459-2.621, P<0.001), and occurrence of twin pregnancies (OR=3.028, 95% CI: 1.563-5.865, P=0.001) were found to be positively associated with the incidence of CI. The cut-off value of BMI and AMH were respectively 22.25kg/m Conclusion: The study analysed risk factors for cervical insufficiency in women with PCOS who underwent IVF-ET treatment, such as BMI, AMH, frequency of hysteroscopy operations, prior gravidity, twin pregnancy. Providing a basis for the identification and prediction of people at high risk of cervical insufficiency.
