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

Purpose: To identify the specific risk factors associated with unexplained infertility (UI) among infertile couples. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study analyzing UI risk factors, focusing on 5465 infertile couples who completed their first full in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycle out of a total cohort of 62201 infertile couples. Results: Among 5465 UI couples, 3400 achieved a live birth (cumulative live birth rate = 62.2%). Multivariate logistic regression indicated the key negative predictors included: female age ≥ 35 years (odds ratio [OR]: 0.63; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.51-0.78; Conclusion: The prevalence of UI was 8.8% in our population, with 62.2% achieving CLB after one complete IVF/ICSI cycle. Female age and ovarian reserve indicators emerged as the main factors influencing oocyte yield, embryo acquisition, and CLB outcomes in UI patients.
