Value of the sperm chromatin dispersion test in predicting pregnancy outcome in intrauterine insemination: a blind prospective study.
BACKGROUND Sperm DNA integrity has been used as a new marker of sperm quality in the prediction of pregnancy. Nevertheless, no previous study has been performed by analysing the same samples that were employed in assisted reproduction. The main objective of this work was to correlate sperm chromatin dispersion (SCD), measured by the SCD test, with semen parameters and pregnancy outcome in intra...
متن کاملTHE VALUE OF IMMUNOLOGICAL TESTS IN PREDICTING PREGNANCY OUTCOME
In addition to ultrasonographic monitoring of folliculogenesis, urinary luteinizing hormone testing, luteal phase endometrial biopsy, serum antiphospholipid antibodies, etc., immunologic tests are recently being used to evaluate reproductive disorders. In this study, sharing of HLA-A, B, C and DR antigens and the presence of antipaternal cytotoxic antibody (APCA) was assessed using microcyt...
متن کاملP-148: Predictive Factors for Pregnancy after Intrauterine Insemination: A Retrospective Study of Factors Affecting Outcome
Background: Controlled ovarian hyper stimulation (COH) in conjunction with intrauterine insemination (IUI) is frequently used to treat various causes of infertility in couples. In this study we evaluate the relation between IUI outcomes and infertility with the intent to detect the most important parameters that pertain to a successful IUI. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, ...
متن کاملSperm Chromatin Dispersion Test before Sperm Preparation Is Predictive of Clinical Pregnancy in Cases of Unexplained Infertility Treated with Intrauterine Insemination and Induction with Clomiphene Citrate
BACKGROUND/AIMS A large proportion of men with normal sperm results as analyzed using conventional techniques have fragmented DNA in their spermatozoa. We performed a prospective study to examine the incidence of DNA fragmentation in sperm in cases of couples with previously unexplained infertility and treated with intrauterine insemination. We evaluated whether there was any predictive value o...
متن کاملEvaluating The Effective Factors in Pregnancy after Intrauterine Insemination: A Retrospective Study
Background Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) in conjunction with intrauterine inseminations (IUI) are commonly used to treat infertile couples. In this study we evaluated the relationship between IUI outcome and special causes of infertility. We also aimed to examine parameters that might predict success following IUI. MaterialsAndMethods In this cross-sectional study, we included 994 I...
