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
Background: The timing of oocyte retrieval after the oocyte maturation trigger is a critical factor influencing the clinical outcomes of assisted reproductive technologies (ART). This study examined how different time intervals of 34 and 36 hours between trigger administration and oocyte pickup (OPU) influence on ART outcomes in patients with poor ovarian response (POR). Materials and Methods: This prospective randomized controlled study enrolled 217 women undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles between April 2024 and March 2025. All participants received a GnRH antagonist protocol, followed by a dual trigger for final oocyte maturation. The cycles were stratified into two groups based on the time interval between trigger administration and OPU at 34 and 36 hours. Comparative analyses were conducted to evaluate the outcomes between the two groups. Results: Throughout the trial, no significant statistical differences were observed between the intervention and control groups concerning baseline clinical and demographic characteristics, except for the antral follicle count (AFC) at baseline. The findings revealed that the 34-hour OPU group exhibited a significantly higher number of retrieved oocytes, oocyte maturity rate, fertilization rate, and number of high-quality embryos compared to the 36-hour group (P0.05). Furthermore, pregnancy outcomes were most favorable in the 34-hour group (P0.05). After adjusting for AFC, all observed differences remained statistically significant, with the exception of the fertilization rate. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that in POR patients, a 34-hour OPU interval with dual triggering significantly improves fertilization rates, embryo quality, biochemical and chemical pregnancy rates compared to 36 hours. This timing adjustment may enhance oocyte maturation and optimize ART success rates.
