The association between pregnancy outcomes of frozen thawed embryo transfers and previous SARS-CoV-2 infections.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The present study aimed to explore whether there is an association between the transfer of frozen thawed embryos (FET) obtained during SARS-CoV-2 infection and an increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. We performed a case-control cohort study. Couples undergoing FET treatment in six reproductive centers in four provinces from February 2022 to December 2022 were enrolled. A total of 440 couples who underwent FET treatment participated in this study, with 110 and 330 couples in the SARS-CoV-2 -positive and SARS-CoV-2-negative cohorts, respectively. The baseline characteristics of the cohorts were comparable. The SARS-CoV-2-positive cohort had statistically significantly lower ongoing pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate, implantation rate, and live birth rate than that of the SARS-CoV-2 -negative cohort. Analysis of the effects of previous infection by sex showed that the co-infected sub-cohort showed significantly decreased live birth rate, and implantation rate compared with the SARS-CoV-2 -negative cohort. FET with embryos obtained during SARS-CoV-2 infection was negatively associated with pregnant outcomes. Greater efforts are needed to improve clinical interventions and public health policies, based on the negative impact of COVID-19 on human reproductive health.
