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: This study aims to explore the clinical characteristics, genetic etiology, and individualized treatment strategies of patients with PCOS complicated by oocyte maturation disorders caused by novel compound heterozygous variants of the Methods: Clinical data and two cycles of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) were collected from a 34-year-old patient with primary infertility and PMOS. Genetic analysis was performed using whole-exome sequencing (WES), and variant pathogenicity was predicted by bioinformatics tools. An individualized COH protocol was designed and implemented based on the genetic diagnosis. Results: The patient had 8 years of primary infertility. In the first cycle, 10 oocytes were retrieved after COH with an antagonist protocol, all arrested at the germinal vesicle (GV) stage. WES revealed compound heterozygous variants in the PATL2 gene (OMIM: 617743): NM_001145112.1: c.1225-2A > G (splice-site variant) and c.1382 T > C (p.Leu461Pro, missense variant), consistent with autosomal recessive inheritance. Both variants were predicted to be deleterious, and c.1382 T > C was a novel unreported variant. In the second cycle, a long follicular protocol, delayed trigger, segmented oocyte retrieval, and indomethacin for spontaneous ovulation prevention were applied. A total of 24 oocytes were retrieved; however, all remained arrested at the GV stage after Conclusion: Compound heterozygous variants c.1225-2A > G and c.1382 T > C in
