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

backgroundBalanced reciprocal translocations and Robertsonian translocations represent two of the most prevalent structural chromosomal rearrangements and may lead to reproductive challenges, including recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). The co-occurrence of both translocation types in a single individual constitutes an exceptionally rare cytogenetic finding with significant clinical implications. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a 36-year-old female with a history of RSA who was found to harbor a compound chromosomal rearrangement consisting of a balanced reciprocal translocation t(2;5)(q33;p13.3) and a Robertsonian translocation der(13;15)(q10;q10). High-resolution karyotyping confirmed the identical rearrangement pattern in the proband's daughter. The patient underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection with preimplantation genetic testing for structural rearrangements (PGT-SR). Among seven blastocysts biopsied, only one euploid embryo with normal karyotype was identified and subsequently transferred in a natural cycle, resulting in a successful singleton pregnancy with normal prenatal cytogenetic findings. DISCUSSION AND

conclusionThis case highlights the critical role of accurate cytogenetic diagnosis and the application of PGT-SR in improving reproductive outcomes in patients with complex chromosome rearrangement. It also underscores the importance of chromosomal karyotyping in detecting complex chromosomal rearrangements-not only for individuals with RSA but also for their family members. Individualized reproductive planning and genetic counseling remain pivotal for managing such challenging cases.
