OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of assisted reproduction techniques (ART) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) serodiscordant couples. DESIGN Systematic review of five databases of noncomparative open intervention and observational studies of serodiscordant couples undergoing ART, with study selection and data extraction performed independently and in duplicate. SETTING ...

The aim of this prospective, randomized trial was to compare the clinical results and the cost-effectiveness of urinary FSH (uFSH) and recombinant FSH (rFSH) in ovarian stimulation for intrauterine insemination (IUI) cycles in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients. One-hundred and seventy PCOS infertile patients undergoing IUI were enrolled, and protocols of ovarian stimulation with uFSH or...

Background: While anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level allows quantitative evaluation of ovarian reserve, its predictive value for live births following assisted reproductive technology cycles has remained controversial. The aim of the present study was to assess the importance of AMH in predicting live birth following intrauterine insemination (IUI) in the case of low or very lo...

Decision making theories have been proved to be very successful for evaluating the users’ interests and preferences in Intelligent User Interfaces (IUIs). However, their application and incorporation in the reasoning of an IUI requires empirical studies throughout the software life-cycle that lead to requirements analysis and specification, important design decisions and evaluation of the resul...

backgroud: intrauterine insemination (iui) is generally attempted before proceeding to more expensive and invasive assisted reproductive techniques such as invitro fertilization (ivf) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi). this procedure is most commonly performed as a therapeutic method for couples with a wide variety of subfertility etiologies, such as low count or low motility of sperm...

BACKGROUND Clomiphene citrate (CC) an agonist and antagonist of estrogen, is the first line treatment in ovarian stimulation. Anti-estrogenic effect of CC in endometrial thickness and cervical mucus has negative effect on pregnancy rate. Letrozole is an Aromatase Inhibitor has been seen that has acceptable pregnancy rate compared to CC. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the effic...

The present study determines fertilization rate and number of embryos on Day 2 after intrauterine insemination (IUI) and deep intrauterine insemination (DIUI) using frozen-thawed (FT) boar semen in multiparous sows. Twelve crossbred Landrace × Yorkshire multiparous sows were included. The sows were inseminated at 24 h after oestrus detection and reinseminated every 12 h until ovulation took pla...

INTRODUCTION Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is an important treatment for infertility. IUI combined with controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) is widely used because of the higher pregnancy rates compared to IUI cycles without COS. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed a single center data from 458 patients underwent the first IUI cycle and had only 1 mature follicle from May 2009 ...

Özet Intrauterine insemination is the first method of treatment for many causes of infertility, mainly unexplained infertility,male subfertility, and ovulatory dysfunction.Despite its popularity, the effectiveness of IUI treatment is not consistent,and the role of IUI treatment in practice protocols has not been clarified.The success of IUI depends on a number of parameters linked both to the p...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate outcomes of patients with unexplained infertility who underwent letrozole (LET)– stimulated controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) with timed sexual intercourse (IC) as compared to patients treated with clomiphene citrate (CC) and intrauterine insemination (IUI). STUDY DESIGN: A non­ randomized, retrospective study where unexplained in­ fertility patients (n=7,764) underwen...
