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

This report describes two women aged 45 and older who achieved live births following intraovarian administration of a novel combination of mechanically processed adipose nanofat rich in adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Both patients had a history of prolonged infertility and multiple failed assisted reproductive technology cycles with in vitro fertilization (IVF). Case 1, a 46-year-old with diminished ovarian reserve and prior miscarriage, underwent adipose-PRP treatment after unsuccessful minimal stimulation IVF. Six months later, she conceived naturally and delivered a healthy infant at age 47. Case 2, a 45-year-old with endometriosis and multiple failed IVF attempts, conceived via frozen embryo transfer of her only euploid embryo produced three months after adipose-PRP treatment, resulting in the birth of a healthy infant. The combination approach was developed to comply with U.S. FDA minimal manipulation guidelines, avoiding enzymatic processing of adipose tissue. This report is, to our knowledge, the first to document natural conception in women with age over 45 following combined adipose nanofat ADSCs and PRP intraovarian injection, and among the few to describe live births at this age using autologous oocytes after such therapy. These findings suggest that adipose-PRP treatment may offer a promising regenerative option for women with extremely diminished ovarian reserve who desire genetically related offspring, though controlled studies are required to confirm long term safety, efficacy, and appropriate patient selection.
