Inm-6: Molecular Genetic Basis of Infertility

Inm-6: Abortion and Infertility

Background: The maximum probability of conceiving during a menstrual cycle is only about 40%. One third of conceptions do not result in the delivery of a baby recurrent miscarriage, defined as the loss of 3 or more pregnancies before 20 weeks post-menstruation that affects 1% of all women. Approximately 20 percent of pregnant women will have some bleeding before 20 weeks’ gestation, and roughly...

Inm-4: Genetic Aspects of Male and Female Infertility

Genetic causes can be directly responsible for various clinical conditions of male and female infertility and genetic variability may affect the ability to reproduce. This review aims to summarize current research on genetic diagnosis and genetic causes of reproductive disorders. Chromosome abnormalities account for 60% of all spontaneous abortions, and the most common type, trisomy, is closely...

New insights into the genetic basis of infertility

Infertility is a disease of the reproductive system characterized by inability to achieve pregnancy after 12 or more months of regular unprotected sexual intercourse. A variety of factors, including ovulation defects, spermatogenic failure, parental age, obesity, and infections have been linked with infertility, in addition to specific karyotypes and genotypes. The study of genes associated wit...

Inm-1: Development of Quality Indicators for Infertility Care

Background As assisted reproductive technology is advancing, it should arrange all principles and indexes to improve its quality of functions to provide optimal services to infertile patients. There are few infertility care-specific quality indicators. The indicators were developed by the existing quality dimensions. Safety, effectiveness, and patient centeredness are the most important quality...

Molecular basis for genetic recombination.

HE past few decades have witnessed the successive description in biochemiTcal-or “molecular”-terms of the great formal entities of classical genetics. The lickage group was early identified with the objectively seen chromosome, then the gene itself, in its wild and mutant forms, more and more closely related to the linear DNA regions thereof. We have seen the identification of the gene product ...
