High-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels and pregnancy outcomes in women with unexplained infertility after ovarian stimulation with intrauterine insemination in a multicenter trial.
Article in F&S reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT01044862 (Assessment of Multiple Intrauterine Gestations From Ovarian Stimulation), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 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.

Abstract
Objective: To determine if chronic inflammation, assessed by basal high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels, is associated with pregnancy outcomes in women with unexplained infertility undergoing ovarian stimulation with intrauterine insemination. Design: Prospective cohort analysis of the Reproductive Medicine Network's Assessment of Multiple Intrauterine Gestations from Ovarian Stimulation (AMIGOS) randomized controlled trial. Setting: Multicenter university-based randomized controlled trial. Patients: A total of 781 couples with unexplained infertility. Interventions: Secondary analysis. Main Outcome Measures: Adjusted risk ratios of live birth, clinical pregnancy, and pregnancy loss rates by hs-CRP levels. Results: Associations between hs-CRP levels and clinical pregnancy rates were not observed after adjustment for baseline body mass index. There were fewer live births among women with higher hs-CRP levels, although confidence intervals crossed 1.0. The risk of pregnancy loss was greater in women with increased hs-CRP levels (1-3 mg/L: risk ratio [RR], 1.67; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00-2.79; >3-10 mg/L: RR, 1.84; 95% CI, 1.06-3.20; and >10 mg/L: RR, 2.14; 95% CI, 1.05-4.36 compared to women with hs-CRP <1 mg/L). Conclusions: This investigation suggests that chronic inflammation may increase the risk of pregnancy loss but not impact the clinical pregnancy rate in women with unexplained infertility undergoing ovarian stimulation with intrauterine insemination. Associations between inflammation and pregnancy outcomes in women with infertility merit further investigation. Clinical Trial Registration Number: clinicaltrials.gov NCT01044862.
