BackgroundThe live birth rates (LBRs) do not rise after a certain number of oocytes are collected in fresh IVF cycles. Although the detrimental effect of high ovarian response on the endometrium has been recognised, the effect of high oocyt…

BackgroundPreimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) with Next Generation Sequencing technology is a low-cost and powerful technology for the analysis of embryo quality. However, PGT-A requires freezing of embryos, suggesting th…

PurposeWe used computer assisted sperm selection (MSOME) during cycles of intracytoplasmic sperm injection to test whether this technique improves results over traditional ICSI protocols. We also used the TUNEL assay to test whether MSOME c…

PurposeIn this work, we describe a system for the morphological scoring of human oocytes prior to fertilisation and use this system to test whether oocyte morphology is an indicator of fertilisation, embryo development and implantation pote…

PurposeTo assess the clinical and biological effect of the preincubation of oocytes in follicular fluid prior to IVF and ICSI cycles.MethodsA series of patients were treated by the preincubation of oocytes in the patients' follicular fluid …

PurposeTo test the effects of type of embryo transfer catheter, transfer difficulty, and observations after the transfer procedure on pregnancy and implantation rates in an IVF programme.MethodsPatients were prepared for IVF using standard …

PurposeTo determine the efficiency of transferring human zygotes as opposed to human day 2 or 3 embryos.MethodsA prospective, randomized, Multicenter trial. Patients were randomized into zygote or embryo transfer. Patients were prepared for…

This study was designed to measure leptin concentrations in the peritoneal fluid (PF) of women with different aspects of pelvic endometriosis. Among 36 consecutive women undergoing laparoscopy, nine were diagnosed as having minimal-mild end…
