Oxygen Equilibration Dynamics in Assisted Reproductive Technology Embryo Culture Media.
Article in Research square, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Optimal oxygen tension is essential for successful Methods: Embryo culture media droplets were prepared in room air and overlayed with light or heavy mineral oil. Dishes were equilibrated in a hypoxia chamber (5% O Results: Media equilibrated from atmospheric to hypoxic conditions within 12 hours. Light oil overlays demonstrated faster equilibration (half-life 71 min) compared to heavy oil (half-life 116 min, Conclusion: In ART media, hypoxic oxygen equilibration is a gradual process while reoxygenation is rapid. Oil viscosity significantly influences oxygen equilibration dynamics, with light oil permitting faster equilibration and reoxygenation. These findings underscore the importance of minimizing atmospheric exposure during routine handling and highlight the role of overlay oil in reducing transient oxygen fluctuations.
