Filter by:This study is a prospective trial with 90 patients suffering from the male type infertility. Patients are divided in two groups (45 patients per group) on the grounds of body mass index (BMI). .
The impact evaluation of ovarian hyperstimulation on coagulation and fibrinolysis in infertile women. Comparative analysis between different ovarian stimulation protocols on thrombin formation and efficiency of fibrinolysis in women diagnosed with infertility.
Involuntary childlessness is an emotionally stressful experience; however, psychosocial counseling is typically not available in Hungarian routine fertility care. The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to examine the effectiveness of a Mind/Body psychological fertility intervention for women in reproductive treatment. We hypothesize that participants of the Mind/Body Program for Fertility, Hungarian version, will have more favorable psychological well-being, ART outcome results than participants of the Fertility Support Groups.
The purpose of this study is to understand why some women are infertile (unable to conceive a child). The investigators hope to learn if an endometrial biopsy after egg retrieval is feasible for detecting biomarkers for endometriosis and predicting implantation and pregnancy rate after embryo transfer. This study design will provide for the first time, an opportunity to compare endometrial biopsy material from hyperstimulated (gonadotropin treated) subjects after egg retrieval. If successful, it would provide a new protocol for women with unexplained infertility or those with known endometriosis to avoid poor IVF outcomes.
Studying the possible outcome differences between surgery or medical treatment with ulipristalacetate (UPA) solely before 'in-vitro fertilisation/intracytoplasmic sperm injection' (IVF/ICSI) treatment in infertile couples.
DESCRT will be a long-term study that both looks back in time, at successful pregnancies, and forward in time at early pregnancy and long-term as these children grow. Currently, there are limited data on the long-term effects of infertility and infertility treatments on children. There are some studies to suggest that these children may have altered metabolic profiles, but this study aims to be the largest study to answer this question.
There has been a recent significant increase in the frozen embryo replacement (FER) cycles due to freeze-all cycles to decrease the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. Now a days making frozen embryo transfers (FETs) a viable alternative to fresh embryo transfer
Hysteroscopy has now become a gold-standard technique carried out for uterine cavity assessment in infertile women. Apart from direct visualizing of the endometrium by the naked eye, pathologies missed by other modalities of investigation can be picked up and managed appropriately. Unfortunately, the procedure itself is not free from complications e.g. perforation, cervical laceration, bleeding, limited access in cases of cervical stenosis and considered as an invasive procedure. Two-dimensional transvaginal ultrasonography (2D-TVS)and Three-dimensional TVS (3D-TVS) are non-invasive methods for evaluating the uterine cavity. The3D-TVS is superior to 2D-TVS in identifying uterine cavity abnormalities due to its ability to obtain a view of three different planes of the uterus, which could be used to locate the position of intracavitary pathology. Reports vary regarding the diagnostic accuracy of 3D-TVS that was reported to have 41.3-81.5% sensitivity and 94.6-98.7% specificity. So it became clear that 3D-TVS is a non-invasive and safe diagnostic tool for evaluation of the uterine cavity abnormalities but its sensitivity, specificity and accuracy still a matter of debate and warrants more evaluation.
The investigators have previously confirmed a clinical hunch that women with asthma have difficulties in becoming pregnant. The investigators found increased time to pregnancy (TTP) in women with asthma compared to non-asthmatic women (55 vs 33 months, p<0.001), furthermore, women with asthma had less successful pregnancies following fertility treatment (39.6 vs 60.4%, p=0.002). Treatment with omalizumab stabilizes the eosinophilic disease, through the systemic and most likely the anti-inflammatory pathways, which indicate a promising possibility to increase pregnancy rate. In a small real-life study in 2017, 5 patients with eosinophilic asthma who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF), were treated with omalizumab prior to embryo transplantation; three out of the five women became pregnant. Lastly, the two remaining patients had several treatments with omalizumab, but did not become pregnant. This real-life study calls for further investigation. By targeting systemic inflammation with omalizumab treatment the aim is to increase asthma control before and during pregnancy. A treatment strategy aiming at improving overall inflammatory control may increase fertility, but also reduce well known maternal and perinatal adverse pregnancy outcomes such as pregnancy loss, preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, low-birth weight, small for gestational age (SGA), preterm delivery. Study design: A randomized control trial with omalizumab and placebo, stratified for blood eosinophil count, is therefore needed. A randomized, double blinded, parallel group, study to evaluate the difference between omalizumab (O) and placebo (P) on pregnancy rate in patients with atopic asthma.Treatment schedule: After collection of material (blood samples, sputum) 6th day (±1 day) of the menstrual cycle, the patients will be randomized in either the omalizumab group or the placebo group. No collection of material will be done at the time of enrollment, as this will be on different time of the female cycles. The treatment is initiated with one injection with weight and serum-immunglobulin E balanced omalizumab or one injection placebo. After omalizumab treatment at ovulation it will again be collected material (blood samples, sputum). If no pregnancy has occurred after first IVF cycle, this will be repeated for 3 consecutive IVF cycles in total or until pregnancy has occurred. Outcome: The primary out-come is efficacy of omalizumab, compared to placebo, in increasing pregnancy rate in females with asthma. Secondary out-comes are changes in the inflammation in lungs/systemic, pregnancy loss, asthma control and biomarkers in the blood/lungs.
This study evaluates the effectiveness of acupuncture on pregnancy success before embryo transfer in IVF treatment in female infertile patients. Half of participants will receive acupuncture sessions before embryo transfer, while the other half will not receive.
