The paper aims to investigate the biological role of microRNAs secreted by preimplantation embryo into blastocoel fluid and detect a distinctive molecular signature for identifying embryos with highest implantation potential. We carried on multicenter retrospective study involving five European IVF centers. collected 112 samples from day 5 post-fertilization, cultured individually, along data blastocyst grade transfer outcomes. Using custom TLDA Array, we compared expression levels 89 miRNAs...

Introduction: Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) was recently introduced as a marker of ovarian reserve in assisted reproduction. The cutoff values AMH for prediction poor response have not yet been determined.Material and methods: Ninety women undergoing their first IVF/ICSI cycle were prospectively included this clinical, non-interventional study. Baseline AMH, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) antral count (AFC) measured before starting stimulation. also on day 5 stimulation the follicular...

Fertility issues are becoming increasingly prevalent, leading many couples to seek fertility treatment at specialized centers. Infertility is a diverse clinical condition, with multiple potential etiologic factors and variable severity in its manifestation. Regardless of the underlying severity, routine assessment rarely differs between cases, an essential step being fallopian tube patency assessment. Hysterosalpingo-foam sonography (HyFoSy) latest available diagnostic technique assess this...

Fallopian tube pathology is a very common cause of infertility for multiple couples worldwide. Tubal patency assessment considered crucial component initial evaluation with several tests available, such as hysterosalpingography (HSG), hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (HyCoSy), and hysterosalpingo-foam (HyFoSy), the latest tubal assessment, utilizing ultrasonography foam-based contrast agent. An additional side-benefit these fertility-enhancing effect, best studied application HSG. In this...

We present the case of a 54-year-old woman diagnosed with uterine leiomyosarcoma that produced beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG), evident by both serum and immunohistologic examination. Based on this similar cases from available literature, β-hCG-producing sarcomas tend to have poorer prognosis, indicating β-hCG could potentially be used as marker disease status response therapy; however, association is inconsistent should further investigated.
