Rescue in vitro maturation using ovarian support cells of human oocytes from conventional stimulation cycles yields oocytes with improved nuclear maturation and transcriptomic resemblance to in vivo matured oocytes.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-024-03143-4

PurposeDetermine if the gene expression profiles of ovarian support cells (OSCs) and cumulus-free oocytes are bidirectionally influenced by co-culture during in vitro maturation (IVM).MethodsFertility patients aged 25 to 45 years old underg…

Human-induced pluripotent stem cell-derived ovarian support cell co-culture improves oocyte maturation in vitro after abbreviated gonadotropin stimulation.
Human reproduction (Oxford, England) ·doi:10.1093/humrep/dead205

Study questionCan in vitro maturation (IVM) and developmental competence of human oocytes be improved by co-culture with ovarian support cells (OSCs) derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs)?Summary answerOSC-IVM significa…

Serum progesterone trend after day of transfer predicts live birth in fresh IVF cycles.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-016-0859-1

PurposeOur objective was to determine if a change in serum P4 from day of transfer (defined as day 19) to day 28 could predict live birth outcome in patients undergoing IVF.MethodsThis study was a retrospective analysis of fresh IVF cycles …

A comparison of pregnancy outcomes between day 3 and day 5/6 embryo transfers: does day of embryo transfer really make a difference?
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-014-0404-z

PurposeTo determine if day of embryo transfer (ET) affects gestational age (GA) and/or birth weight (BW) at a single university fertility center that primarily performs day 5/6 ET.MethodsRetrospective cohort study of 2392 singleton live bir…

In vitro fertilization with preimplantation genetic screening improves implantation and live birth in women age 40 through 43.
Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-014-0417-7

PurposeIn Vitro Fertilization is an effective treatment for infertility; however, it has relatively low success in women of advanced maternal age (>37) who have a high risk of producing aneuploid embryos, resulting in implantation failure, …
