March 2010 Ectopic pregnancy is a major health problem for women of childbearing age and a leading cause of pregnancy-related death in the first trimester. Untreated, ectopic pregnancy can lead to massive hemorrhage, infertility and death. With the advent of high-resolution transvaginal sonography, in conjunction with serum assays for the ß-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (ß-hCG), rapid...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to analyse the outcome of closed blastocyst vitrification of embryos biopsied at the cleavage stage. METHODS Vitrification of supernumerary blastocysts was performed using the closed CBS-VIT High Security straws. Warming cycles (n = 100) for patients with preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) and/or aneuploidy screening in the fresh cycle were analysed. ...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Successful egg cryopreservation has many potential benefits to a variety of patients. However, a superior standard protocol describing all aspects of oocyte cryopreservation has not yet been identified. Oocyte cryopreservation is still a technical challenge for many infertility clinics. To maintain satisfactory clinical outcomes, there is a need to develop an easy to us...

Abstract Background Vitrification has become the method of choice for cryopreservation human embryos and gametes. There are multiple commercial media, containing different combinations concentrations cryoprotectants, available vitrification warming procedures. The aim this retrospective study was to compare post-warming survival rate clinical outcomes cleavage stage vitrified/warmed using two m...

This paper reviews the clinical recognition, diagnosis, and management of ectopic pregnancy at the Queen of Angels Hospital for the past 15 years. The incidence of ectopic pregnancy to deliveries is 1:195. Pain is the cardinal symptom of ectopic pregnancy, and amenorrhea of some degree was present in all cases. Pelvic inflammatory disease is a factor in the development of tubal pregnancy in ...

data utilized in this study were 6800 records of lambs’ life longevity, and survival rate from 263 sires and 1839 dams collected from 1989 through 2009, from the lori-bakhtiari flock at shooli station in shahrekord. the data were analyzed, using linear and hazard ratio models along with weibul function. these models included such non genetic factors as year and month of birth, sex of lamb, type...

Abstract Study question Is the survival rate of a cohort donor oocytes used for each recipient associated with outcomes cycle? Summary answer Oocyte cryo-survival rates (benchmark = 95-100%, competency 85-95%, below-competency 70-85%, and poor 50-70%) are not embryological clinical pregnancy in first transfer cycle. What is known already The use vitrified-warmed allows overcoming many logistic ...
