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

Background: Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) remains a significant challenge in IVF, as it is closely associated with poor ovarian response. Beyond well-established predictive of ovarian response, genetic polymorphisms in the FSH receptor (FSHR) gene rs6165 and rs6166 have been reported as potential markers. Purpose: Evaluating the expression of FSHR rs6165 and rs6166 in DOR patients and their impact on ovarian response to stimulation. Materials and Methods: This prospective cross-sectional included 79 DOR patients (AMH < 1.2 ng/mL and/or AFC < 5) undergoing IVF treatment at the National Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Vietnam. GnRH antagonist protocol was applied, using alpha follitropin with individualized dosages combined with clomiphene citrate, followed by dual-trigger ovulation induction. FSHR rs6165 and rs6166 were genotyped by Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) assays, with Sanger sequencing for validation. Ovarian response was assessed based on follicular development and oocyte retrieval. Results: The overall prevalence of the rs6165 and rs6166 polymorphisms was 10.1% (8/79), with strong linkage disequilibrium observed between the two loci (OR = 490, p < 0.0001). No significant differences in age, AMH, baseline FSH, and AFC were found in all genotypes (AA, AG, GG) of rs6165 and rs6166. In the rs6165 dominant model, patients with G alleles (AG/GG) had lower total oocyte retrieval, FOI and FORT than the AA genotype. In rs6166 codominant, dominant, and recessive models, the GG phenotype retrieved fewer oocytes (p1 = 0.02, p2 = 0.03, p3 = 0.01). FORT was significantly lower in G allele carriers (AG/GG) than AA (p = 0.04). Conclusion: In the diminished ovarian reserve patients, FSHR rs6165 and rs6166 were associated with ovarian response to stimulation in IVF treatment. Specifically, the presence of G alleles in both rs6165 and rs6166 was correlated with reduced oocyte retrieval, independent of baseline ovarian reserve markers.
