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

backgroundMiscarriage is a common complication of pregnancy, and it is defined as spontaneous pregnancy loss before the fetus reaches viability. However, there are no clear pathological factors identified as causes of recurrent miscarriage in some cases. Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) has been shown to have some advantages in the live birth rate in limited populations with a favorable prognosis. Hence, we investigated whether PGT-A improves pregnancy outcomes in patients with recurrent pregnancy loss.

methodsWe conducted a retrospective study including patients with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss from December 2021 to June 2022 receiving assisted reproduction therapy in the first medical center of the Chinese PLA General Hospital. The patients were divided into PGT-A and non-PGT-A groups, and we compared the pregnancy outcomes between the PGT-A and non-PGT-A groups.

resultsPGT-A significantly increased the clinical pregnancy rate per embryo transfer (ET) (58.7 vs. 32.3%, p = 0.023) and live birth rate per ET (50.0 vs. 25.8%, p = 0.034). However, there were no differences in biochemical pregnancy rates per ET (69.6 vs. 51.6%, P = 0.111), biochemical pregnancy loss rates (15.6 vs. 37.5%, p = 0.089), and miscarriage rate per clinical pregnancy (11.5 vs. 20.0%, p = 0.511) between the PGT-A and non-PGT-A groups.

conclusionsPGT-A was associated with significant improvements in clinical pregnancy and live birth rates in patients with recurrent pregnancy loss.
