Circulating Naïve Regulatory T Cell Subset Displaying Increased STAT5 Phosphorylation During Controlled Ovarian Hyperstimulation Is Associated with Clinical Pregnancy and Progesterone Levels.
Observational study in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. 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
Regulatory T cells (Tregs), particularly their phenotypically distinct subpopulations, are critical for the establishment of maternal immune tolerance during embryo implantation. Despite advances in assisted reproductive technologies, implantation failure remains a frequent and often unexplained clinical challenge. Variations in Treg frequency and phenotype have been proposed to influence implantation success, particularly under differing hormonal conditions. This study aimed to investigate peripheral blood Treg levels and their subpopulations on the day of blastocyst transfer in both stimulated in vitro fertilization (IVF/ICSI) cycles involving controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) and true natural cycles with frozen embryo transfer (FET), and to examine their associations with systemic hormone levels and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH). A prospective observational study was conducted including women undergoing IVF/ICSI with fresh embryo transfer (ET) and women undergoing natural cycle FET. Peripheral blood samples were collected on the day of ET and analyzed using 13-colour flow cytometry, enabling detailed subdivision of Tregs into multiple subpopulations based on the expression of differentiation and chemokine markers, including CXCR5. In addition, because common γ-chain cytokines may influence pregnancy success by modulating the balance between suppressive Treg and non-Treg subsets, intracellular STAT5 signaling was assessed using phospho-specific flow cytometry. Serum estradiol, progesterone, FSH, LH, and AMH levels were measured in parallel. Significant differences were observed in Treg subpopulation distributions between women who conceived and those who did not. Higher frequencies of naïve CXCR5
