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

Objective: To compare the euploidy rate between ovulation suppression protocols using PPOS and GnRH-ant, and to evaluate possible variables associated with euploidy rate such as age, BMI, infertility duration, treatment-related factors, and semen parameters, in a genetically admixed Brazilian population underrepresented in reproductive medicine research. Design: This was a retrospective non-inferiority case-control study including 268 IVF cycles, conducted between 2021 and 2022. Subjects: A total of 268 Exposure: Patients underwent controlled ovarian stimulation using either progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) or GnRH antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocols. Main outcome measures: The primary outcome was the euploidy rate in PPOS and GnRH-ant groups. Results: No significant differences were observed in euploidy rate between the PPOS and GnRH-ant groups (25.9% vs. 27.5%; p = 0.865; r = 0.01). In the adjusted analysis, stimulation protocol was not significantly associated with euploidy rate (coefficient = 3.38; 95% CI: -14.26 to 16.03), whereas maternal age remained significantly and negatively associated with the outcome (coefficient = -7.83; 95% CI: -11.85 to -3.81). Fertilization rate was higher in the GnRH-ant group (p = 0.004), but this did not affect embryo formation or euploidy outcomes. Paternal age and semen parameters were not significantly associated with euploidy. Conclusion: According to the prespecified criterion, PPOS met the formal criterion for non-inferiority in relation to GnRH-ant regarding euploidy rate, although with limited margin. These findings support PPOS as a viable option in freeze-all/PGT-A cycles, but they should be interpreted with caution given the retrospective design and baseline differences between groups.
