Epigenetically regulated imprinted gene expression associated with IVF and infertility: possible influence of prenatal stress and depression.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-019-01483-0

PurposeDespite the growing body of research implying an impact of in vitro fertilization (IVF) on imprinted genes and epigenetics, few studies have examined the effects of underlying subfertility or prenatal stress on epigenetics, particula…

Birthweight in infants conceived through in vitro fertilization following blastocyst or cleavage-stage embryo transfer: a national registry study.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-018-1168-7

PurposeIn vitro fertilization (IVF) infants have lower birthweights than their peers, predisposing them to long-term health consequences. Blastocyst transfer (BT), at day 5-6 post-fertilization, is increasing in usage, partially due to impr…

Effect of frozen/thawed embryo transfer on birthweight, macrosomia, and low birthweight rates in US singleton infants.
American journal of obstetrics and gynecology ·doi:10.1016/j.ajog.2017.12.223

BackgroundSingleton infants conceived using assisted reproductive technology have lower average birthweights than naturally conceived infants and are more likely to be born low birthweight (<2500 gr). Lower birthweights are associated with …
