Abstract STUDY QUESTION Do ongoing pregnancy rates (OPRs) differ in predicted hyperresponders undergoing ART after IVM of oocytes compared with conventional ovarian stimulation (OS) for IVF/ICSI? SUMMARY ANSWER One cycle is non-inferior to one OS women serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels ≥10 ng/ml. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Women high antral follicle count and elevated AMH levels, indicating an increased functional reserve, are prone hyperresponse during treatment. To avoid iatrogenic...
Objective It has been established that male cigarette smoking a negative effect on the semen quality and it can induce DNA damage leading to worsening of reproductive outcomes. The aim our large retrospective study is determine influence assisted reproduction, more specifically in IVF ICSI
Abstract STUDY QUESTION Is there an increase in the total number of metaphase II (MII) oocytes between a conventional ovarian stimulation (OS) and double uninterrupted stimulation? SUMMARY ANSWER There is no MII when comparing one OS to continuous with oocyte aspiration. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Based on concept multiple follicular waves, combination two stimulations same cycle has gained interest patients low reserve. This so-called dual approach usually characterized by discontinuation FSH...
Abstract Study question Is extensive sperm washing, followed by viral load testing, necessary to ensure safety of assisted reproductive techniques in HIV-positive men? Summary answer In context suppression, there is no added value washing testing for men seeking fertility treatment. What known already Sperm was initially introduced as a safe strategy serodiscordant couples which the male partner seropositive. This technique uses combination density gradient centrifugation (DGC) and swim-up...
Abstract Study question Does the mean serum trigger-progesterone levels show significant variation based on administered rFSH dose from day 8 onwards during ovarian stimulation using corifollitropin-alfa? Summary answer Lower doses of are linked to reduced progesterone (P4) without impact cumulus-oocyte complexes. What is known already Progesterone elevation ovulation trigger prompts a non-elective freeze-all strategy, given lower live birth rates in fresh embryo transfers. Ongoing research...
Abstract Study question Is there any indication for presence of viral RNA in FF, CC, immature oocytes or endometrial biopsy (EB) SARS-CoV–2 patients undergoing ovarian stimulation? Summary answer Viral is undetectable CC and EB with RT-PCR. However, S-protein expression on corona radiata cells suggests susceptibility to infection. What known already The effects a infection the female reproductive system are still poorly understood. Theoretically, co-localisation angiotensin converting enzyme...
Abstract Study question What is the impact of seven days versus fourteen days’ estrogen (E2) priming on clinical outcome frozen-embryo-transfer in artificially prepared endometrium (FET-HRT) cycles? Summary answer No significant difference clinical/ongoing pregnancy rate was observed when comparing 7 14 before starting progesterone (P) supplementation. known already One (effective) method for endometrial preparation prior to frozen embryo transfer hormone replacement therapy (HRT), a...
Introduction: The incidence of pregnancy associated leukemia is approximately one in 75,000 to 100,000 pregnancies. majority leukemias diagnosed during are acute. Of these acute leukemias, two-thirds myeloid. Early and prompt diagnosis challenging, hence unspecific symptoms such as fatigue, dyspnea or weakness easily attributed the physiological changes pregnancy. Case Report: A case a 33 weeks pregnant female, presenting with abdominal pain. During an emergency cesarean section performed...
Abstract Study question Do ongoing pregnancy rates (OPR) differ in predicted hyperresponders undergoing ART after in-vitro maturation of oocytes (IVM) compared with conventional ovarian stimulation (COS)? Summary answer One cycle IVM is non-inferior to one COS women serum AMH levels >10ng/mL. What known already Women high antral follicle count (AFC) and elevated levels, indicating an increased functional reserve, are prone hyperresponse during treatment. To avoid iatrogenic...
Abstract Study question Do in-vitro maturation (IVM) of oocytes and conventional IVF (cIVF) have different effects on quality life (QoL) in women with polycystic ovaries (PCO)? Summary answer Women PCO who IVM treatment experienced a lower impact QoL compared to their counterparts underwent cIVF. What is known already While studies predicted hyper-responders shown that success rates are cIVF, cIVF associated more hormonal side complications including OHSS. According recent discrete choice...
Abstract Study question Is there a difference in the endometrial transcriptome and/or reproductive tract microbiota composition when OD versus MVP is used as LPS for fresh embryo transfer? Summary answer Endometrial signatures and at vaginal, cervical or intra-uterine site presented no significant differences following MVP. What known already Adequate crucial to achieve successful pregnancy ovarian stimulation (OS) transfer. has been proven be non-inferior compared two phase III clinical...
Abstract Study question Does the dose or type of gonadotropin affect reproductive outcomes poor responders undergoing MNC-IVF? Summary answer Neither nor gonadotropins affects MNC-IVF. What is known already Poor ovarian response (POR) to stimulation remains a major therapeutic challenge in routine IVF practice, because association with low live birth rates and high cancellation rates. Although doses are traditionally used stimulate ovaries women predicted POR, MNC-IVF has been proposed as...
