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

In the process of in vitro fertilization (IVF), zygote is considered as normally fertilized when there are two pronuclei (PN), one from sperm and the other from oocyte, and with two polar bodies (PBs). However, it is not uncommon to encounter tripronuclear (3PN) zygotes when conducting PN check for IVF or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Embryos derived from 3PN zygotes often lead to implantation failure, miscarriages and molar pregnancies, and these embryos are routinely discarded or not allowed to be transplanted. Here we report a case where most of the patient's oocytes (14/20) were immature (MI, GV), or with large or giant PB. After fertilization with ICSI, almost all resulting zygotes (7/8) were 3PN. By removing one female PN in 6 3PN zygotes, two microsurgically enucleated zygotes developed into high-quality blastocysts. One euploid blastocyst was selected for transfer after non-invasive chromosome screening (NICS), vitrification and thawing. The transfer resulted in the live birth of a healthy boy who is now 9-month-old and has no any health or developmental impairments.
