PurposeThe purpose of the present study is to estimate the proportion of women with cancer who return to use the embryos that they have banked and to compare this proportion to that of women without cancer who bank embryos.MethodsThis is a …
A persistent finding is that assisted reproductive technology (ART) is associated with compromised birth outcomes, including higher risks for prematurity, low birthweight, and congenital malformations, even among singletons. Over the past d…
PurposeThe objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of changing fertility status on perinatal outcomes of singleton siblings, conceived with and without assisted reproductive technology (ART).MethodA longitudinal cohort study of M…
ObjectiveTo assess whether risk of severe maternal morbidity at delivery differed for women who conceived using assisted reproductive technology (ART), those with indicators of subfertility but no ART ("subfertile"), and those who had neith…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the risks for adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes by diagnoses with and without assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment to non-ART pregnancies in fertile women. DESIGN: Historical cohort of Massachusetts vit…
ObjectiveTo evaluate risks for adverse pregnancy outcomes by number of embryos transferred (ET) and fetal heartbeats (FHB) in assisted reproductive technology-conceived singleton live births.DesignLongitudinal cohort using cycles reported t…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate assisted reproductive technology (ART) pregnancy outcomes by infertility diagnosis. STUDY DESIGN: ART data on women who were treated and gave birth in Massachusetts were linked to vital records and hospital utilizati…
ObjectiveTo evaluate the risk of cancer after assisted reproductive technology (ART) therapy.DesignLongitudinal cohort study.SettingNot applicable.Patient(s)New York, Texas, and Illinois residents between 2004 and 2009, treated with ART, co…
ObjectiveTo compare on a population basis the birth outcomes of women treated with assisted reproductive technologies (ART), women with indicators of subfertility but without ART, and fertile women.DesignLongitudinal cohort study.SettingNot…
ObjectiveTo develop a model predictive of live-birth rates (LBR) and multiple birth rates (MBR) for an individual considering assisted reproduction technology (ART) using linked cycles from Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology Clini…
ObjectiveTo identify a group of deliveries to mothers with indicators of subfertility (SUBFERTILITY).DesignLongitudinal cohort study.SettingHospital.Patient(s)A total of 334,152 deliveries to Massachusetts mothers in a Massachusetts hospita…
PurposeTo compare ages of mothers and of fathers at delivery in couples who are fertile, subfertile, and subfertile treated with assisted reproductive technology (ART) and to characterize birth outcomes in the ART population according to pa…
Although Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) births make up 1.6 % of births in the US, the impact of ART on subsequent infant and maternal health is not well understood. Clinical ART treatment records linked to population data would be a…
ObjectiveTo model morphological assessments of embryo quality that are predictive of live birth.DesignLongitudinal cohort using cycles reported in the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology Clinic Outcomes Reporting System (SART CORS)…
PURPOSE: This study uses linked cycles of assisted reproductive technology (ART) to examine cumulative live birth rates, birthweight, and length of gestation by diagnostic category. METHODS: We studied 145,660 women with 235,985 ART cycles…
ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of a prior assisted reproductive technology (ART) live birth on subsequent live-birth rates.DesignHistorical cohort study.SettingClinic-based data.Patient(s)The study population included 297,635 women with 54…
BackgroundLive-birth rates after treatment with assisted reproductive technology have traditionally been reported on a per-cycle basis. For women receiving continued treatment, cumulative success rates are a more important measure.MethodsWe…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate factors associated with the use of elective single embryo transfer (eSET) and its effect on assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcome. DESIGN: Historical cohort. SETTING: Clinic-based data. PATIENT(S): A total…
ObjectiveTo compare the outcome of superovulation using clomiphene citrate (CC) versus hMG in conjunction with IUI.DesignSequentially assigned, observational study. Couples initially were assigned to receive either CC or hMG for three cycle…
