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: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between endometrial thickness (EMT) on human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) day in the progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) protocol and pregnancy outcomes in the subsequent frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles, providing new insights into embryo transfer strategies for patients undergoing the PPOS protocol. Methods: This retrospective study included 1,748 patients who underwent the PPOS protocol. Patients were divided into two groups based on the EMT on the hCG day: group A (EMT < 8 mm) and group B (EMT ≥ 8 mm). After 1:1 propensity score matching (group A: Results: (1) In groups A and B, the biochemical pregnancy rates were 44.5% and 45.5% ( Conclusions: The EMT on the hCG day in the PPOS cycle was positively related to the pregnancy outcomes of subsequent FET, with EMT ≥8 mm associated with better pregnancy outcomes, particularly in patients undergoing blastocyst transfers.
