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
Surrogacy raises complex social and ethical issues related to autonomy, informed consent, potential exploitation, and the welfare of all parties involved. In this article, FIGO advocates for ethically sound surrogacy practices that prioritize voluntary and informed consent, safeguard the well-being of surrogates, uphold the rights and responsibilities of intended parents, and place the welfare of the child at the center of all decisions. FIGO discourages surrogacy arrangements in which a woman agrees in advance to surrender a child to whom she is genetically related ("traditional surrogacy") and supports surrogacy arrangements in which a woman agrees in advance to surrender a child to whom she is not genetically related ("gestational surrogacy") provided they align with core ethical principles. FIGO also emphasizes the importance of adhering to international ethical standards, particularly in the context of cross-border surrogacy arrangements.
