BACKGROUND: Data sciences and artificial intelligence are becoming encouraging tools in assisted reproduction, favored by time-lapse technology incubators. Our objective is to analyze, compare and identify the most predictive machine learni…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the oocyte yield between follicular-phase stimulation (FPS) and luteal-phase stimulation (LPS) in suboptimal responders. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, crossover clinical trial. PATIENTS: Forty-one patients with in…
The present study compares two protocols for ovarian controlled stimulation in terms of number of cumulus-oocyte complexes and metaphase II oocytes. We employed a single injection of 150mcg of corifollitropin alfa after a 7-day oral contrac…
PURPOSE: To identify candidate variants in genes possibly associated with premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). METHODS: Fourteen women, from 7 families, affected by idiopathic POI were included. Additionally, 98 oocyte donors of the same…
STUDY QUESTION: Do mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number and heteroplasmy in human embryos affect the ongoing pregnancy rate? SUMMARY ANSWER: Our study suggests that mtDNA copy number above a specific threshold is associated with the ongoi…
