Effect of A23187 ionophore treatment on human blastocyst development-a sibling oocyte study.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-022-02467-3

PurposeTo investigate whether treatment with commercially available ready-to-use A23187 ionophore (GM508-CultActive) improves embryo development outcome in patients with a history of embryo developmental problems.MethodsThis is a uni-center…

Impact of cell loss after warming of human vitrified day 3 embryos on obstetric outcome in single frozen embryo transfers.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-022-02572-3

PurposeDoes cell loss (CL) after vitrification and warming (V/W) of day 3 embryos have an impact on live birth rate (LBR) and neonatal outcomes?MethodThis retrospective analysis includes cleavage stage day 3 embryos vitrified/warmed between…

Health of 2-year-old children born after vitrified oocyte donation in comparison with peers born after fresh oocyte donation.
Human reproduction open ·doi:10.1093/hropen/hoab002

Study questionDoes oocyte vitrification adversely affect the health of 2-year-old children compared with peers born after use of fresh oocytes in a donation programme?Summary answerThe growth and health of 2-year-old children born after ooc…

Cumulus-corona gene expression analysis combined with morphological embryo scoring in single embryo transfer cycles increases live birth after fresh transfer and decreases time to pregnancy.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-018-01398-2

PurposeClinical pregnancy rate after IVF with eSET stagnates between 30 and 40%. In order to increase pregnancy and live birth rates, multiple embryo transfer is still common practice. Providing additional non-invasive tools to choose the c…

Pregnancy prediction in single embryo transfer cycles after ICSI using QPCR: validation in oocytes from the same cohort.
PloS one ·doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0054226

Cumulus cell (CC) gene expression is being explored as an additional method to morphological scoring to choose the embryo with the highest chance to pregnancy. In 47 ICSI patients with single embryo transfer (SET), from which individual CC …

Obstetric outcome in donor oocyte pregnancies: a matched-pair analysis.
Reproductive biology and endocrinology : RB&E ·doi:10.1186/1477-7827-10-42

BackgroundTo investigate the obstetrical and perinatal impact of oocyte donation, a cohort of women who conceived after OD was compared with a matched control group of women who became pregnant through in vitro fertilisation with autologous…

An in vivo culture system for human embryos using an encapsulation technology: a pilot study.
Human reproduction (Oxford, England) ·doi:10.1093/humrep/dep005

BackgroundAnimal studies have demonstrated better embryo development in vivo than in vitro. This pilot study tested the feasibility of using a novel in utero culture system (IUCS) to obtain normal human fertilization and embryo development.…

Is there any need for diagnostic laparoscopy in couples undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection for severe male-factor infertility.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/bf02766830

PurposeOur purpose was to determine whether there is a need for a preliminary diagnostic laparoscopy in couples undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) because of severe male-factor infertility.MethodsIn this retrospective study,…
