BACKGROUND: Key performance indicators (KPIs) are widely used to evaluate embryologist performance in IVF laboratories, yet they are sensitive to patient demographics, treatment indications, and case allocation. Artificial intelligence (AI)…

BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is one of the most common gynecological diseases that can lead to infertility. The aim of this quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional study was to analyze the prevalence and the annual nationwide health ins…

The significance of oxidative stress in the pathophysiology of male reproductive processes has been closely studied in the last two decades. Recently, it has become clear that oxidative stress can lead to numerous pathological conditions du…

Based on current findings, the presence of oxidative stress has a significant impact on the quality of gametes and embryos when performing assisted reproductive techniques (ART). Unfortunately, in vitro manipulation of these cells exposes t…

Endometriosis is a disease that is often diagnosed late and that may lead to significant reduction in quality of life and serious complications (e.g., infertility). We aimed to assess the prevalence and the annual, nationwide health insuran…

This study aimed to evaluate the interrelationship between telomere length, telomerase activity and oxidative DNA damage in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). This single-center, observational clinical study comprised 102 uns…

Examining possible psychosocial maladjustments should be an integral part of fertility care. For the early detection of vulnerability, the present study aimed to adapt and test the reliability and validity of the Hungarian version of SCREEN…

(1) Background: This study was designed to define whether pretreatment habitual physical activity (PA)-induced oxidative stress (OS) influences outcome measures by using 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in saliva samples of patients und…

The most recent studies of progesterone research provide remarkable insights into the physiological role and clinical importance of this hormone. Although the name progesterone itself means "promoting gestation", this steroid hormone is far…

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to examine the effect of interactions between serotonin (5-HT), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and kisspeptin on the reproductive potential in women receiving in vitro fertilization (IVF). METHODS: Pa…

This cross-sectional clinical study was designed to explore the impact of tryptophan-kynurenine and tryptophan-serotonin (5 HT) pathways on reproductive performance during in vitro fertilization (IVF). Paired serum and follicular fluid (FF)…

OBJECTIVE: This observational, clinical study was designed to assess the role of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1), sirtuin 6 (SIRT6), and resveratrol in in vitro fertilization (IVF). METHODS: Paired serum and follicular fluid (FF) samples were obtained f…

This study was designed to evaluate the levels of oxidative stress (OS) markers, total non-enzymatic antioxidant capacity (TAC) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in the serum and follicular fluid (FF) of patients undergoing in vitro …

Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) and Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) expressed mainly by primary sensory neurons function as major nociceptive integrators. They are also present on the rat endometrium in an oe…

BACKGROUND: L-carnitine-mediated beta-oxidation of fatty acids has a well established role in energy supply of oocytes and embryos. Disturbed carnitine metabolism may impair the reproductive potential in IVF and can serve as a biomarker of …
