Risk of diabetes according to male factor infertility: a register-based cohort study
These findings support previous studies that a man's reproductive and somatic health are closely intertwined and highlight the importance for further monitoring of these men. Further, implementation of diabetes screening may be especially relevant among aspermic and azoospermic men.
SCREENIVF Serves as an Initial Emotional Screening Tool for Women Undergoing IVF
Now, Danish researchers have demonstrated the effectiveness of a screening tool, SCREENIVF, in identifying women at a high risk of developing emotional problems at an early stage of the treatment. The findings of the study, published in the journal Human Reproduction, suggest the potential of SCREENIVF as the first emotional screening tool, based on which the high-risk patients can be subjected to more detailed diagnostics for prompt treatment in
Supraphysiologic estradiol is an independent predictor of low birth weight in full-term singletons born after fresh embryo transfer
Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that E2 was an independent predictor for term LBW, even after adjusting for age, BMI, race, parity, infertility diagnosis, duration of ovarian stimulation, gonadotropin dosage and method of insemination (adjusted odds ratio 10.8, 95% CI 9.2–12.5).
A short report on current fertility preservation strategies for boys. [testicular tissue cryopreservation (TTCP)]
TTCP can be performed in young patients without delay, preferably prior to cancer treatment. As testicular tissue contains germ cells from which haploid spermatozoa are ultimately derived, future technologies may allow their utilization for fertility in humans. This may be the only hope for biological offspring in some patients undergoing fertility compromising treatment. Retrieval of mature sperm from some pubertal patients however offers realis
Pregnancy rates of day 4 and day 5 embryos after culture in an integrated time-lapse incubator
Conclusions: Pregnancy rates in IVF/ICSI cycles with integrated time-lapse incubation and transfer on day 4 and 5 are comparable. This finding provides the clinician, IVF laboratory and patient with more flexibility.
Apoptotic sperm biomarkers and the correlation between conventional sperm parameters and clinical characteristics
Patients without clinical pregnancy had higher frequency of DNA fragmentation, externalised PS and activated caspases compared to patients with clinical pregnancy (p < .001). The best specificity and greater sensitivity were obtained with the test of the DNA fragmentation compared to the other biomarkers. Among the apoptotic biomarkers, only DNA fragmentation was found to predict natural or assisted pregnancy better than conventional sperm parame
Follicular flushing in natural cycle IVF does not affect the luteal phase – a prospective controlled study
In conclusion, follicular flushing in NC-IVF affects neither the length of the luteal phase nor the luteal phase concentrations of progesterone and oestradiol, questioning the need for luteal phase supplementation.
Validation study of the SCREENIVF: an instrument to screen women or men on risk for emotional maladjustment before the start of a fertility treatment
Conclusion(s): The SCREENIVF has good construct validity but the concurrent validity is better than the predictive validity. SCREENIVF will be most effectively used in fertility clinics at the start of treatment and should not be used as a predictive tool.
