Rationale for replacing IVIG with Intralipid (IL) for immunological pregnancy loss

چکیده
The commonest problem related to the embryo itself is an abnormality of chromosomal number or aneuploidy. 95% of chromosomally abnormal embryos are abnormal as a result of a problem with the egg. The reason for this is that the egg does most of the work in accepting the DNA from sperm and then facilitating mixing of genes resulting in a new unique individual. Based on the age of the egg, the proportions of embryos that are chromosomally normal ranges from approximately 50% for eggs under age 30, to as low as 5% for eggs at approximately age 45.

متن کاملIntravenous immunoglobulin treatment increased live birth rate in a Spanish cohort of women with recurrent reproductive failure and expanded CD56(+) cells.
PROBLEM Natural killer (NK, CD3(-)CD56(+)/CD16(+)) and NKT-like cells (CD3(+)CD56(+)/CD16(+)) activity is considered among the key factors for reproductive success. In the absence of immunological screening, beneficial effects of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) in preventing recurrent reproductive failure (RRF) have not been reported. Here, we analyse the IVIG influence on pregnancy success i...
متن کاملIntravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy for immunologic abortion
Recurrent pregnancy loss associated with immunologic abnormalities has been termed immunologic abortion. Immunologic abortion occurs primarily in women over the age of 30 years and may affect either natural or in-vitro fertilization (IVF)-induced pregnancy. In this article, we review the humoral and cellular immunologic abnormalities that have been associated with this form of recurrent abortio...
