BACKGROUND: To compare the clinical outcomes between frozen-thawed cleavage embryo transfer and frozen-thawed day 6 blastocyst transfer in patients younger than 35 using the freeze-all strategy without day 5 blastocyst formation. METHODS: …
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a severe complication of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment, characterized by increased capillary permeability. Vascular endothelial growth fac…
PURPOSE: To reveal the metabolic differences of follicle fluid (FF) and granulosa cell (GC) between younger women and advanced age women in ART cycles, and then find potential therapeutic targets of ovarian aging. METHODS: Forty-five patie…
PURPOSE: This study aims to retrospectively estimate cumulative reproductive outcomes in women with primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) in assisted reproductive technology (ART) therapy. METHODS: A total of 139 patients diagnosed with POI …
OBJECTIVE: To investigate clinical and singleton newborn outcomes in fresh cycles of embryo transfer after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI-ET) with diverse sperm sources (ejaculate, epididymis, and testis) in patients with Oligoasthe…
BACKGROUND: Numerous research have investigated the predictor role of progesterone (P) level on the human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) trigger day of assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes. However, the relationship of progesterone…
BACKGROUND: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and recurrent implantation failure (RIF) during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment are still tough problems without effective treatments; thus, they are important research topics. There is cont…
BACKGROUND: Obesity adversely influences the quality of oocytes and embryos and can affect DNA repair in embryos, leading to reproductive issues. However, the effects of body mass index (BMI) on DNA repair ability in oocytes during intracyt…
BACKGROUND: To compare the efficacy and safety of follitropin delta in its individualized fixed-dose regimen with follitropin alfa in a conventional adjustable dosing regimen in Chinese women. METHODS: This was a subgroup analysis of the r…
BACKGROUND: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has tremendous advantages for resolving the problem of male infertility. However, ICSI fertilization can fail in some patients because of various reasons, primarily because of the failure …
Endometriosis (EMs), one of the most common gynecological diseases, seriously affects the health and wellness of women; however, the underlying pathogenesis remains unclear. This study focused on dysregulated genes and their predicted trans…
BACKGROUND: A number of publications have examined the relation between blood group and female infertility including ovarian reserve, recurrent miscarriage, and live birth. However, there is a lack of literature investigating joint mother/f…
INTRODUCTION: Women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) have a lower pregnancy rate and higher cancellation rate compared to those without DOR when seeking assisted reproductive technology. However, which factors are associated with repro…
BACKGROUND: Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), growth differentiation factor 8 (GDF8) and their functional receptors are expressed in human ovarian follicles, and these two intrafollicular factors play essential roles in regulating follic…
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 1 (ADAMTS1) is an extracellular matrix metalloproteinase that plays an important role in the process of ovulation. According to previous studies, the expression level of ADAMTS1…
BACKGROUND: Some studies have demonstrated that adenomyosis patients can achieve a comparable pregnancy outcome with women with normal uteruses, while there is no unanimous conclusion at present. METHOD: We recruited 65 adenomyosis patient…
BACKGROUND: Currently, in China, only women undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles can donate oocytes to others, but at least 15 oocytes must be kept for their own treatment. Thus, the aim of th…
BACKGROUND: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a common disease during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation treatment. However, the obstetric and neonatal outcomes of this group of patients are unknown. The aim of this study was to …
BACKGROUND: The blastocyst morphology provided valuable roles for predicting pregnancy and live birth, but was still not fully understood for evaluating miscarriage. The aim of this study was to explore the association between blastocyst mo…
Background: Studies have shown that patients with a thin endometrial thickness (EMT < 7 or 8 mm) during IVF/ICSI tend to have adverse pregnancy outcomes, and this has caused much anxiety to both patients and physicians when confronted with …
Abstract Persistent supraphysiological serum estradiol (E2) levels during controlled ovarian hyper-stimulation (COH) have a detrimental effect on endometrial receptivity. In this study, we explored RNA expression and DNA methylation profile…
INTRODUCTION: Age, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), low body mass index (BMI), high antral follicle count (AFC), increased anti-Muller hormone (AMH) levels, and elevated serum estradiol (E2) concentrations are risk factors for ovarian hype…
PURPOSE: The study aimed to investigate the relationship between elevated maternal body mass index (BMI) and foetal chromosomal aberrations by performing single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array-based genetic testing on products of concep…
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is one of the most serious and iatrogenic complications that can occur during in vitro fertilization treatment. Although the pathogenesis of OHSS is not fully understood, vascular endothelial growth …
BACKGROUND: When ovarian response to FSH stimulation for IVF/ICSI is unsatisfactory, the FSH dose is often adjusted in the treatment cycles, thereby assuming that hormone status and follicular development were insufficient for optimal stimu…
