BACKGROUND: Endometrial thickness (EMT) has been confirmed to be associated with pregnancy outcomes after in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET), but studies on its relationship with neonatal o…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effects of chromosomal aneuploidy screening and secondary vitrification-warming on the pregnancy and neonatal outcomes of non-biopsied, previously vitrified embryos. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study include…
BACKGROUND: AMH is a dependable indicator of ovarian reserve function and assessment of ovarian responsiveness. The relationship between reduced ovarian reserve and pregnancy loss remains poorly understood and requires further investigation…
OBJECTIVE: Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is a major pregnancy complication with unclear pathogenesis. This study aims to investigate the role of miR-20b-5p and its downstream target HIF-1α in trophoblast function and RSA pathogenesis…
This research has suggested a link between major depressive disorder (MDD) and infertility, with interleukin-18 (IL-18) being proposed as a potential mediator due to its connections to both conditions. A Mendelian randomization (MR) approac…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the differences in the factors associated with endometriosis between Chinese and British patients. METHODS: This case-control study was conducted in 387 patients with endometriosis and 199 non-endometriosis patients a…
Oocyte retrieval is a routine procedure during the application of assisted reproduction technology. However, technical difficulties experienced during oocyte retrieval and the subsequent unsatisfactory number of oocytes obtained are rarely …
Infertile women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) confront an increased miscarriage rate in assisted reproductive technology (ART). Genetic abnormality is the most important factor. However, the effects of DOR and female age on the mole…
BACKGROUND: Impaired endometrial receptivity is a major reason for embryo implantation failure. There's a paucity of information regarding the role of circRNAs on endometrial receptivity. Here, we investigated the function of hsa_circ_00194…
BACKGROUND: In recent years, some studies have shown that there is a positive association between the number of oocytes retrieved and the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) after fresh and frozen cycles of one oocyte retrieval. However, almo…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Which factors are related to early spontaneous miscarriage in IVF-conceived clinical pregnancies? DESIGN: A total of 21,485 clinical pregnancies were included in the analysis. First, early spontaneous miscarriage rates w…
We investigated the effects of paternal characteristics, including age, body mass index (BMI), and semen parameters on chromosomal aberration-related miscarriages in couples that underwent treatment with assisted reproductive technology (AR…
Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients have a better ovarian reserve and age-related improvement in endocrine disturbances than non-PCOS patients. The effects of age on in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment outcomes associat…
BACKGROUND: Patients with endometriosis (EMs) are routinely advised to take GnRH-a for 3–6 months to improve the internal reproductive environment, but this may not be necessary. MATERIAL/METHODS: This retrospective study examined the effec…
BACKGROUND Patients with endometriosis (EMs) are routinely advised to take GnRH-a for 3-6 months to improve the internal reproductive environment, but this may not be necessary. MATERIAL AND METHODS This retrospective study examined the eff…
Background: Female overweight/obesity has been reported to be associated with compromised pregnancy outcomes in fresh embryo transfer cycles. It is unclear whether the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) is adversely affected after all viable…
PURPOSE: To explore the relationships between the soluble receptor for advanced glycation endproducts (sRAGE) and the outcome parameters following in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (P…
Many protocols have been proposed to improve IVF outcomes for poor ovarian responders. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between age, ovarian hyperstimulation protocol and IVF/ICSI outcomes in poor ovarian responder (POR…
OBJECTIVE: To retrospectively analyze the effects of long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a) combined with transvaginal ultrasound-guided cyst aspiration on the pregnancy outcomes of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfe…
