Evaluation of Arcuate Uterus in Infertility Using 3D Transvaginal Ultrasound: A Retrospective Cohort 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
Purpose: To determine the prevalence and clinical significance of arcuate uterus among infertile women using three-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound (3D-TVUS). Methods: This retrospective cohort included 327 women evaluated for infertility between January 2021 and May 2025. Arcuate uterus was defined as fundal indentation < 10 mm and angle ≥ 90°. The primary outcome was live birth, with subgroup analysis in assisted reproductive technology (ART) cases. Logistic regression was used to assess independent associations. Results: Arcuate uterus was found in 19% (62/327) of infertile women and was more frequent in unexplained infertility than in explained cases (32% vs. 14%; cOR 2.82, 95% CI 1.59-5.00, Conclusions: Arcuate uterus was relatively common, especially in unexplained infertility, but did not independently affect live birth. 3D-TVUS assessment may help identify subgroups within unexplained infertility, warranting validation in multicenter studies.
