International journal of women's health ·doi:10.2147/ijwh.s521115

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate whether endometrial thickness (EmT) change prognosticates the ongoing pregnancy rate (OPR) in hormonally prepared frozen-thawed embryo transfers (FETs) in women with treated intrauterine adhesion (…

In this single-center, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial, we investigated whether human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal cells loaded collagen scaffolds (hUC-MSC/CS) could improve the cumulative live-birth rate (cLBR) in…

To evaluate whether the Spring Festival has an effect on the outcomes of patients undergoing their first embryo transfer (ET) via in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI). We conducted a retrospective cohort study …

Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-024-03246-y

PURPOSE: To investigate whether personalized embryo transfer (pET) predicted by a modified RNA-sequencing-based endometrial receptivity test (rsERT) model can improve intrauterine pregnancy rate (IPR) in patients with a receptive window of …

BACKGROUND: Embryo implantation in a receptive endometrium is crucial for successful pregnancy. Endometrial receptivity (ER) prediction tools based on endometrial transcriptome biomarkers by endometrial biopsy have been used to guide succes…

Journal of ovarian research ·doi:10.1186/s13048-023-01277-0

BACKGROUND: Whether pretreatment with gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) can improve the pregnancy outcomes in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles is controversial. The inconsistencies in the results of different studies …

Journal of translational medicine ·doi:10.1186/s12967-021-02837-y

BACKGROUND: Window of implantation (WOI) displacement is one of the endometrial origins of embryo implantation failure, especially repeated implantation failure (RIF). An accurate prediction tool for endometrial receptivity (ER) is extraord…

BACKGROUND: There is much value in identifying non-invasive ways of measuring endometrial receptivity, as it has the potential to improve outcomes following in vitro fertilization (IVF). It has been suggested that endometrial echogenicity o…
