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

This report describes the rare case of a woman who, after starting infertility treatment at age 44 and subsequently being diagnosed with breast cancer, successfully achieved a live birth at age 50. The patient underwent numerous assisted reproductive technology cycles, ultimately conceiving with a cryopreserved embryo that was created when she was 45 and stored for five years. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a live birth in a breast cancer survivor at the age of 50, achieved through the use of her own cryopreserved embryo. This case represents a remarkable success achieved despite the combined challenges of advanced maternal age and a cancer diagnosis, highlighting the importance of persistent embryo banking and oncofertility.
