Acupuncture is widely used by women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF), although the evidence for efficacy conflicting.To determine of acupuncture compared with a sham control performed during IVF on live births.A single-blind, parallel-group randomized clinical trial including 848 fresh cycle was conducted at 16 centers Australia and New Zealand between June 29, 2011, October 23, 2015, 10 months pregnancy follow-up until August 2016.Women received either (n = 424) or 424). The first...
To estimate cumulative live birth rates (CLBRs) following repeated assisted reproductive technology (ART) ovarian stimulation cycles, including all fresh and frozen/thaw embryo transfers (complete cycles).Prospective follow-up of 56 652 women commencing ART in Australian New Zealand during 2009-2012, followed until 2014 or the first treatment-dependent birth.CLBRs cycle-specific were calculated for up to eight stratified by age (< 30, 30-34, 35-39, 40-44, > 44 years). Conservative CLBRs...
IVF is a costly treatment option for women, their partners, and the public. Therefore new therapies that improve reproductive health outcomes are highly desirable. There growing body of research evaluating effect acupuncture administered during IVF, specifically on day embryo transfer (ET). Many trials heterogeneous results inconsistent. remains insufficient evidence to determine if can enhance live birth rates when used as an adjunct treatment. The study will clinical effectiveness with...
Abstract Background One in six Australian women and couples suffer infertility. A rising proportion relates to advanced maternal age, associated with poorer oocyte quality vitro fertilisation ( IVF) outcomes. Internationally, cryopreservation technology applied oocytes vitrified before 35 years provides similar live‐birth statistics compared IVF treatment using fresh oocytes. Oocyte is accessible Australasian settings elective uptake increasing. For accessing treatment, may expand future...
Endocrine tumours of the pancreas, anterior pituitary or parathyroids arise either sporadically in general population, as a part inherited syndromes such multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN 1). The mechanisms responsible for development sporadic lesions are not well understood, although loss heterozygosity (LOH) MEN1 locus on chromosome 11q13 and somatic mutation gene have been frequently associated with MEN 1-type lesions. To further investigate role tumorigenesis, we analysed DNA from...

(Abstracted from JAMA 2018;319:1990–1998) Acupuncture during in vitro fertilization (IVF) is a frequently used adjunctive treatment. Evidence for its efficacy conflicting.
Does fallopian tube sperm perfusion (FSP) result in better pregnancy and live birth rates than standard intrauterine insemination (SIUI) for couples with non-tubal infertility or without gonadotrophin clomiphene stimulation? There was no evidence of an improvement FSP compared SIUI. Previous randomized controlled trials have suggested improved but these were small. A systematic review published 2004 heterogeneity results. This pragmatic, multicentre, trial SIUI 417 women infertility. The...
