Endometrial CD4+ And CD8+ in Women with Failed Implantation Following Embryo Transfer

چکیده

To quantify and compare endometrial CD4+ and CD8+ cells in women with failed implantation following embryo transfer and infertile women using immunohistochemistry. It was a case control study that was done at Al-Amin Maternity Hospital, Saudi Arabia. Endometrial biopsies were collected from women who failed to achieve pregnancy after repeat IVF treatment from start of January 2013 till December 2014 in IVF centers, endometrial biopsies were collected in mid luteal phase of cycle. A second group of matched fertile women, and came to outpatient clinic for reasons other than infertility, were included as a control group. Using pippele catheter from all women collected Endometrial small biopsies at the 21st day of the cycle and immunohistochemical study for all biopsies was done. Higher CD4 and CD4/CD8 but lower CD8 levels were noticed in cases with implantation failure in comparison to controls with highly significant difference between the two groups as regards the three parameters. CD8 is more sensitive with higher predictive value (PPV) but less specific and less negative predictive value (NPV) than CD4. The best cut off value of CD4 was 4.1 while CD8 was 5.6. The sensitivity and specificity were higher when combining the two tests together with better accuracy. The prognostic value of measuring endometrial CD4 and CD8 cell parameters seems to be valuable. More studies are needed to confirm or refute the role of CD4 and CD8 assessments as a predictive test for screening in women with implantation failures who may benefit from immunotherapy.

I-5: Cancellation of Fresh Embryo Transfer: A Future Perspective

Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) affects adversely implantation following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. COH with gonadotropins alters endometrial receptivity and luteal function. In addition periovulatory endometrial characteristics in stimulated cycles are considerably different compared with the natural cycles, and periovulatory secretory transformation is consistently ...

Association of IL-1 and TNF-α Levels in Endometrial Secretion and Success of Embryo Transfer in IVF/ICSI Cycles

Objective: Since some cytokines such as IL1 and TNFα are factors involved in endometrial receptivity ,we have determined the amount of these two factors in endometrial secretion in the eligible individuals and then, study their relationship with the success or failure of pregnancy in IVF/ICSI cycles. Methods & Materials: In this non-randomized descriptive study, 76 women selected for their firs...

I-40: Implantation Failure

Background: The process of implantation involves the interaction of the human embryo and the uterine epithelium. Failure of implantation is a major reason for infertility in women and the inability to achieve endometrial receptivity is responsible for much of the failure of reproductive technologies. Management of repeated implantation failure despite transfer of good-quality embryos still rema...

I-23: The Role of Hysteroscopy in Patients with Repeated IVF Failure

The success of reproduction, although gradually increasing over the years, many couples also had been left frustrated following repeated failed attempts. Implantation of the embryo, can only take place in a receptive uterus and inadequate uterine receptivity is responsible for approximately two-thirds of implantation failures. Endometrial receptivity can be reduced by morphological and/or molec...
