BACKGROUND: The quality of in vitro matured (IVM) oocytes remains inferior to that of in vivo matured oocytes, likely due to DNA damage induced by the in vitro environment. Although rapamycin has been shown to improve the developmental comp…

BACKGROUND: Primary Sjögren syndrome (pSS) is often related to adverse neonatal outcomes. But it's currently controversial whether pSS has an adverse effect on female fertility and clinical pregnancy condition. More importantly, it's unclea…

The sex ratio shift was observed in peoples who underwent ART treatment. Moreover, there is limited evidence on differences in sex ratio between single frozen-thawed blastocyst morphology, insemination type and transfer days. So further res…

BACKGROUND: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is often associated with adverse reproductive outcomes. But it's currently unclear regarding the role of SLE in oocyte and embryonic development. Also, it's controversial whether SLE has an adv…

BACKGROUND: The rescue in vitro mature(Rescue IVM) technique allows the use of immature oocytes collected in conventional COH to obtain more mature oocytes for fertilization through in vitro maturation. Some studies have shown that Rescue I…
