Researchers in a 2023 study developed a model to predict the chance of live birth after a positive β-hCG (beta-hCG), using the first measurement and a second one taken 48 hours later.
Researchers in 2023 provided evidence-based guidelines for deciding how many embryos to transfer, as prepared by ESHRE.
Laparoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosing endometriosis, but other non-surgical tests are showing potential. Here we’ll take a brief look at ReciptivaDx based on the BCL6 protein, the Endotest and DotEndo test based on a miRNA signature, the EMScore which is based on a gene expression signature, and imaging tests like ultrasound and MRI.
Researchers in a 2023 study found that day 7 euploids have the lowest ongoing pregnancy rate, when compared to day 5 and 6 euploids. These embryos were mostly poor quality.
Researchers in 2023 provide evidence-based guidelines for managing patients with unexplained infertility, as prepared by ESHRE.
Researchers in a 2023 study show that poor quality embryos have acceptable live birth rates compared to good and fair quality embryos, with only a slight increase in pregnancy loss and no differences in perinatal outcomes.
Researchers in a 2023 study review the use of 27 IVF add-ons and provide recommendations by ESHRE, with only several that are recommended or could be considered for the general infertility population.
Researchers in a 2023 study found that live birth rates depend on a blastocyst’s grade, and not their day 3 grade, while miscarriage rates were affected due to day 3 cell number.
Researchers in a 2023 study found increased miscarriage rates with mosaic embryo transfers compared to euploids, with no differences in neonatal outcomes.
Researchers in a 2023 study found that increasing female BMI resulted in decreased pregnancy and live birth rates after a single euploid transfer, while pregnancy loss rates increased. This effect was reduced in cases of male factor infertility only, suggesting that weight itself may not be responsible.
Researchers in a 2023 study found that older women that are triggered earlier produce immature eggs that may be more competent than mature eggs after rescue IVM.
Researchers in a 2023 study used rescue IVM and found that many immature eggs became mature and had comparable fertilization and euploid rates to sibling mature eggs, although there was a decrease in blastocyst formation rates.
