BackgroundSmoking near conception has adverse effects on pregnancy outcomes. We estimated the proportion of assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles with smoking reported and associated clinical outcomes.MethodsWe used a retrospective …

ObjectiveTo compare characteristics, explore predictors, and compare assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycle, transfer, and pregnancy outcomes of autologous and donor cryopreserved oocyte cycles with fresh oocyte cycles.DesignRetrospec…

ObjectiveTo explore disparities in prematurity and low birth weight (LBW) by maternal race and ethnicity among singletons conceived with and without assisted reproductive technology (ART).MethodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study usi…

PurposeThe purpose of the study was to describe trends in and investigate variables associated with clinical pregnancy and live birth in autologous in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles among women ≥40 years.MethodsWe used autologous IVF cycl…

ObjectiveTo examine outcomes of singleton pregnancies conceived without assisted reproductive technology (non-ART) compared with singletons conceived with ART by elective single-embryo transfer (eSET), nonelective single-embryo transfer (no…

ImportanceUse of assisted reproductive technology (ART) has been associated with increased risks for birth defects. Variations in birth defect risks according to type of ART procedure have been noted, but findings are inconsistent.Objective…

ObjectiveTo explore whether recently enacted infertility mandates including coverage for assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment in New Jersey (2001) and Connecticut (2005) increased ART use, improved embryo transfer practices, and…

ObjectiveTo assess treatment and pregnancy/infant-associated medical costs and birth outcomes for assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles in a subset of patients using elective double embryo (ET) and to project the difference in costs…

ObjectiveTo investigate the associations among underweight body mass index (BMI), pregnancy, and obstetric outcomes among women using assisted reproductive technology (ART).DesignRetrospective cohort study using national data and log binomi…

PurposeThe aim of this study was to identify factors associated with double embryo implantation following double embryo transfer (DET) during assisted reproductive technology (ART) procedures and to evaluate the implications of findings in …

ObjectiveTo characterize risks for early pregnancy loss after fresh and frozen IVF cycles and to investigate whether risk is modified by infertility diagnoses or transfer of embryos in fresh versus frozen cycles.DesignRetrospective cohort s…

ObjectiveTo evaluate trends and reproductive outcomes of gestational surrogacy in the United States.DesignRetrospective cohort study.SettingInfertility clinics.Patient(s)IVF cycles transferring at least one embryo.Intervention(s)Use of a ge…

Study questionAre assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment factors or infertility diagnoses associated with autism among ART-conceived children?Summary answerOur study suggests that the incidence of autism diagnosis in ART-conceived…

ObjectiveTo use linked assisted reproductive technology (ART) surveillance and birth certificate data to compare ET practices and perinatal outcomes for a state with a comprehensive mandate requiring coverage of IVF services versus states w…

ObjectiveTo assess endometriosis-associated infertility trends among assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles, and to compare cancellation and hyperstimulation risks and pregnancy and live birth rates among women using ART for endometr…

ObjectiveTo assess national trends in ectopic pregnancy incidence among assisted reproductive technology users and identify risk factors associated with ectopic pregnancy.MethodsWe identified 553,577 pregnancies reported to the National ART…

ObjectiveTo evaluate trends of monozygotic twinning after single embryo transfer and its association with patient and treatment factors.MethodsOur retrospective cohort study included 28,596 pregnancies after fresh, nondonor single embryo tr…

ImportanceIntracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is increasingly used in patients without severe male factor infertility without clear evidence of a benefit over conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF).ObjectiveTo assess national trends …

ObjectiveTo assess trends and outcomes of assisted hatching among assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles.DesignRetrospective cohort analysis using National ART Surveillance System (NASS) data.SettingU.S. fertility centers reporting t…

ObjectiveTo assess the association between number of embryos transferred and a measure of assisted reproductive technology success that emphasizes good perinatal outcome.MethodsWe analyzed assisted reproductive technology cycles initiated i…

ObjectiveTo assess trends in elective single ET and identify factors associated with a good perinatal outcome.DesignRetrospective cohort study.SettingClinic-based data.Patient(s)A total of 886,686 fresh, nondonor cycles reported to the Nati…

ObjectiveTo estimate trends in good perinatal outcomes (singleton live births at term with birthweight more than 2,500 g) among live births after assisted reproductive technology in the United States from 2000 to 2008, and associated factor…

ObjectiveThis study examined a possible association of dietary exposure to polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), a brominated flame retardant, and self-reported abnormal Pap test results and cervical dysplasia as a precursor to cervical cancer.M…

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to examine trends in hospitalizations for gynecologic disorders in the United States.Study designData on hospitalizations from 1998-2005 among women 15-54 years old were from the Nationwide Inpatient S…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the ectopic pregnancy risk among women who conceived with assisted reproductive technology (ART) procedures. METHODS: The ectopic rate for ART pregnancies was calculated from population-based data of pregnancies concei…
