Comment:Includes a treatment for a cited link between vaginal micrbiota and outcomes, a link between dermatological issues and progesterone exposure, a study suggesting variation in how embryologist grade blastocysts and a study suggesting time-lapse algorithms for grading blastocysts may need further studies. Finally a look at calcium response to fertilization and when oocyte activation may be of value.

Reliability and agreement on embryo assessment: 5 years of an external quality control programme
In conclusion, the ability of clinical embryologists to evaluate the presence of multinucleation and vacuoles in the early cleavage embryo, and to determine the category of the inner cell mass in blastocysts, needs to be improved.
Time-lapse algorithms and morphological selection of day-5 embryos for transfer: a preclinical validation study
Conclusion(s):The results of this study raise concerns as to whether the tested algorithms are applicable in different clinical settings, emphasizing the need for proper external validation before clinical use.
Dermatological Manifestations in Patients Undergoing In Vitro Fertilisation: A Prospective Study
Conclusion:Dermatological manifestations are seen in almost one-quarter of patients undergoing IVF, with progesterone-induced urticaria being the most common. Occurrence of cutaneous manifestations has no significant association with the outcome of IVF. [Def urticaria:a rash of round, red weals on the skin which itch intensely, sometimes with dangerous swelling, caused by an allergic reaction, typically to specific foods]
Osel’s LACTIN-V Enters Clinical Study to Improve the Success Rate of IVF in Women With Imbalanced Vaginal Microbiomes
Study based on findings that women with abnormal vaginal microbiota had only 9% success of pregnancy with IVF versus 44% for those with healthy vaginal bacteria levels
Abnormal vaginal microbiota may be associated with poor reproductive outcomes: a prospective study in IVF patients [2016]
Abnormal vaginal microbiota may negatively affect the clinical pregnancy rate in IVF patients. If a negative correlation between abnormal vaginal microbiota and the clinical pregnancy rate is corroborated, patients could be screened and subsequently treated for abnormal vaginal microbiota prior to fertility treatment.
