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: In in vitro fertilization (IVF), transferring frozen-thawed blastocysts is a widely adopted practice. This meta-analysis aims to evaluate the reproductive outcomes of transferring blastocysts derived from frozen-thawed cleavage embryos (FT-CDB group) compared to direct frozen-thawed blastocyst (DFB group) transfers. Methods: We searched the following electronic databases for relevant studies: PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science. Studies were included if they compared the clinical and neonatal outcomes of IVF patients receiving either FT-CDB or DFB transfer with vitrification method. The protocol for this review has been registered in PROSPERO. Results: A total of seven studies (2057 patients) were included in the analysis. Participants in the FT-CDB group demonstrated significantly higher odds of achieving clinical pregnancy (OR 1.24, 95% CI 1.03-1.49, Conclusion: Transferring blastocysts derived from frozen-thawed cleavage embryos is associated with higher odds of clinical pregnancy and live birth compared to frozen-thawed blastocyst transfers. Trial Registration: PROSPERO number: CRD42024591620.
