To utilize propensity score matching (PSM), thereby creating similar cohorts, to evaluate the impact of ERA using embryos deemed euploid by pre-implantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A). Retrospective cohort study autologous FET cycles between January 1st, 2014 and June 30th, 2019 at a single, university-affiliated infertility practice. Patients were included if they had transfer blas...

BACKGROUND Pre-antral and early antral follicles secrete Müllerian inhibiting substance (MIS), suggesting that MIS may directly reflect ovarian reserve. Since little is known about how ovarian reserve affects oocyte quality, we attempt here to assess the predictive value of MIS on embryo morphology and IVF outcome. To do so, we measured MIS at the time of HCG administration 36 h prior to oocyte...

messenger rnas may be targeted by short 19-27 nt rnas generally called small none-coding rnas (snrnas), the role of mirnas among other snrnas has been more studied and is well known. many researches show that all compartments of risc, proteins and mirnas take part in this wide range of regulatory impacts. ago protein homologs plus mirnas and target mrnas form a silencing complex in p-bodies whi...

background: nowadays, oocytes and embryos vitrification has become a routine technique. based on clinical judgment, re-vitrification maybe required. but little is known about re-vitrification impact on genes expression. objective: the impact of re-vitrification on apoptotic and implanting genes, bax, bcl-2 and erbb4, at compaction stage embryos were evaluated in this study. materials and method...

The overall reproductive performance has decreased over the last decades, involving changes in cyclicity, oestrous behaviour and fertility. High milk yield (MY), low body condition score (BCS) and large body condition (BC) loss have been identified as risk factors. However, these effects are often confounded, as high MY and body lipid reserve mobilization are correlated. The aim of this study w...

BACKGROUND Tubal pregnancy (TP) is twice as common following IVF when compared with natural conception. This is surprising, since embryo transfer is aimed for an accurate area in the uterine cavity. We thus hypothesized that either the embryo or the Fallopian tube actively participates in a pathological process leading to implantation outside the uterine cavity. Since we recently found that E-c...
