Androgenicity and fertility treatment in women with unexplained infertility.
Trial report in Fertility and sterility, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
objectiveTo determine whether biochemical or clinical markers of androgenic activity predict live birth rate with ovarian stimulation in the unexplained infertility population.
designSecondary analysis of the Assessment of Multiple Intrauterine Gestations from Ovarian Stimulation (AMIGOS) clinical trial.
settingMulticenter university-based clinical practices. PATIENT(S): Nine hundred couples with unexplained infertility were included. Women were 18-40 years old with regular menses, a normal uterine cavity, at least one patent fallopian tube, and a male partner with ≥5 million motile sperm. Women were randomized to receive gonadotropin, clomiphene, or letrozole with IUI for four or fewer four treatment cycles. Women were evaluated for biochemical (total testosterone, DHEAS, and free androgen index) and clinical markers of androgenic activity (sebum, acne, and hirsutism). Multivariable logistic regression models adjusting for treatment group, maternal age, and body mass index were performed. INTERVENTION(S): None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): The primary outcome was live birth. Secondary outcomes included conception, clinical pregnancy, and pregnancy loss. RESULT(S): When comparing 900 women in the AMIGOS trial based on quartiles of serum TT, women were of younger age, higher body mass index, and higher waist circumference with increasing TT. Increasing quartiles of TT also showed increasing DHEAS and free androgen index values. Serum androgens were not associated with outcomes of live birth, conception, clinical pregnancy, or pregnancy loss. Clinical androgen markers were not associated with pregnancy outcomes. CONCLUSION(S): In a randomized cohort of women with unexplained infertility, biochemical and clinical measures of androgens did not predict live birth rate after ovarian stimulation treatment. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: NCT 01044862.
