This systematic review and meta-analysis (CRD42024588171) compared the effectiveness of surgery followed by IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) with direct IVF/ICSI (i.e. without previous surgery) on the reproductive outcomes of…
BackgroundA prospective, observational study to identify relationships between body temperature and levels of peripheral P4 blood progesterone, and examine if these differ according to body temperature cycle pattern.Methods62 data points fr…
BACKGROUND: Endometriosis is a chronic gynecological condition that affects approximately 10% of women of reproductive age globally. It is associated with significant morbidity due to symptoms such as pelvic pain and infertility. Current kn…
OBJECTIVE: The primary objective of this study was to assess if uterine adenomyosis impacts live birth rate per euploid embryo transfer. The secondary objectives included addressing obstetric and perinatal outcomes in the study group. METH…
Background: fertilization (IVF) clinics have trouble conceiving due to ovarian failure (OF), which seems to be associated to short telomeres and reduced or absent telomerase activity in their granulosa cells. Indeed, telomere pathways are i…
STRUCTURED ABSTRACT Objective To develop a non-invasive diagnostic test for endometriosis. Design We conducted two studies: the development study (study 1) aimed at (i) evaluating the ability of CA125, brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDN…
Data sharing not applicable - no new data generated. Figure S1 Sequence of ultrasound images in sagittal plane taken over a period of 4 s in preovulatory phase, showing slight deformation of the endometrial cavity (arrows) secondary to cerv…
Research questionHow does the number of oocytes used affect the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) in endometriosis patients who had their oocytes vitrified for fertility preservation?DesignRetrospective observational study including data fr…
Growing evidence of successful outcomes achieved with the oocyte vitrification technique has greatly contributed to its application in the field of fertility preservation (FP). The population that can benefit from FP includes women at a ris…
BACKGROUND: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy diagnosed in women, and its treatment has a high probability of loss of fertility. Oocyte vitrification is the most commonly used technique to preserve fertility before starting oncolo…
Endometriosis affects a great proportion of women during their reproductive years and may impair female fertility in several ways. Ovarian endometrioma (OE) is the most frequent phenotype and growing evidence suggest an endometrioma-mediate…
Endometriosis, despite only affecting 10-15% of women of fertile age, is still an enigmatic disease. Recent developments in assisted reproductive technology have contributed to a better understanding of where and how endometriosis could com…
ObjectiveTo describe the outcome of fertility preservation (FP) using vitrified oocytes in patients with endometriosis and to determine the impact of ovarian surgery.DesignRetrospective observational study.SettingUniversity-affiliated priva…
Premature ovarian insufficiency is a common disorder affecting young women and represents the worst-case ovarian scenario due to the substantial impact on the reproductive lifespan of these patients. Due to the complexity of this condition,…
BACKGROUND: It has been reported that a natural cycle (NC) is similar to or even better than hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in patients with regular cycles who undergo frozen embryo transfer (FET). Hundreds of FETs are managed yearly in …
BACKGROUND: There is a need for a reliable marker of endometriosis, especially in early stages of peritoneal disease during which imaging is not effective. The use of serum interleukin (IL)-6 as a marker is controversial. To readdress the m…
ObjectiveTo review the available information regarding chemotactic cytokines and their possible implications in human reproduction.DesignA thorough literature and MEDLINE search was conducted to identify studies relating to the role of chem…
Chemokines are a new family of cytokines specialised in attracting leukocytes, acting in physiological conditions and in pathological processes. A wide variety of cell types in response to exogenous irritants or endogenous mediators of the …
Rupture of an ovarian endometrioma presenting as a surgical emergency during pregnancy is a rare event. We report the first case to our knowledge of growth and rupture of an endometrioma in the first trimester of pregnancy. After laparotomy…
