Is it necessary to perform a diagnostic hysteroscopy before the first embryo transfer?-A retrospective study.

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
Objective: This study aimed to assess the impact of performing diagnostic hysteroscopy prior to the first Methods: A retrospective descriptive study was conducted from October 2019 to March 2023 at Qingdao Women and Children's Hospital, China. The study population included women under 45 years old with ultrasonographically normal uterine cavities who were undergoing their first fresh embryo transfer through Results: Among patients undergoing hysteroscopy, 49.63% patients exhibited abnormal uterine findings, with endometrial polyps being the most common pathology (30.03%). A significantly lower rate of good-quality embryos was observed in the hysteroscopy group compared to the non-hysteroscopy group (50.38% vs. 75.11%, Conclusions: Diagnostic hysteroscopy effectively identifies and facilitates treatment of intrauterine abnormalities in IVF/ICSI candidates to optimize endometrial receptivity. And performance of hysteroscopy prior to IVF is significantly associated with increased clinical pregnancy rates. These findings support the recommendation for pre-transfer hysteroscopic evaluation in the first embryo transfer cycles.
