PURPOSE: This research proposed to study the changes in lipid composition in cumulus cells (CCs) from women who achieved pregnancy compared with women who did not, after in vitro fertilization treatment. This approach has the potential to p…

PURPOSE: We investigated the activities and relevance of a validated panel of antioxidant enzymes, cytokines, specific lipid peroxidation end products and six fatty acids by correlational analyses with peak E(2) levels and pregnancy outcome…

2012
PURPOSE: Successful embryo implantation depends on trophoblast proliferation, migration and, lastly, invasion of the endometrium (to anchor the trophoblast to the uterus). This invasion is mediated by locally produced soluble factors. Of th…

PURPOSE: Sperm flow cytometry (SFC) was used to evaluate the association of sperm chromatin condensation and ploidy with fertilization, embryo development, pregnancy and abortion rates following IVF. METHODS: Conventional semen analysis wa…

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to evaluate the correlation between BDNF and oocyte maturation and to verify whether BDNF could predict in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcome. METHODS: The follicle fluid (FF) for BDNF, E(2) and P assay wer…

OBJECTIVE: To establish importance of anti-ovarian antibodies (AOA) testing in infertile women. DESIGN: A clinical reproductive outcome comparative study between two groups of women undergoing IVF-ET. Group 1 consists of women tested posit…

INTRODUCTION: This case study presents an unusual finding of filarial infection within follicular fluid obtained during an in vitro fertilization (IVF) oocyte retrieval procedure. CASE: A 41 year-old G4P1030 immigrant from western Africa u…

PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of cumulus cells removal after 6 h co-incubation of gametes on the fertilization, polyspermy, multinucleation and clinical pregnancy rates in human IVF. METHODS: A total of 1,200 IVF-ET cycles undergoing…

PURPOSE: We 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…

PURPOSE: Sperm DNA damage is common amongst infertile men and may adversely impact natural reproduction, IUI-assisted reproduction and to a lesser degree IVF pregnancy. The objective of this study was to examine the influence of sperm DNA d…
