Filter by:Enrolling of 150 female patients of fertile age diagnosed with PCOS, insulin resistance, infertility, or mitochondrial disease, and the same number of age- and sex-matched controls are planned. During the research biomarkers already with mitochondrial dysfunction in the scientific literature and common mtDNA abnormalities (deletions, point mutations, copy number changes, etc.) are examined.
Current in-vitro fertilization (IVF) consumers are enjoying better success rates than early seekers, but only about a quarter of IVF cycles result in a live birth and many patients remain infertile after multiple IVF attempts. Recurrent IVF failure is distressing to patients and challenging to clinicians. Despite interventions have been proposed to improve IVF outcome after couples of failed cycles, only a few of which are evidence based. Laparoscopy, as the gold standard for the evaluation of the pelvis, was used to be the routine procedure for many reproductive physicians. It provides information on endometriosis, tubal patency, and pelvic adhesions and a chance to fix these lesions concurrently.
The project aims to create a large prospective data bank using the Lucy medical mobile application and collect and analyze patient profiles and structured clinical data with artificial intelligence. In addition, authors will investigate the association of removed or restricted dietary components with quality of life, pain, and central sensitization.
The GETSET trial is a prospective randomized trial designed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of incorporating preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies (PGT-A) in elective single embryo transfer in women between 35 and 40 years of age.
Sleep is a critical component of daily life that significantly influences health and well-being. Despite the integral role sleep plays in life, its effect on women's reproductive health, and its subsequent impact on fertility, is largely understudied. The purpose of the SLEEP Study is to investigate the link between sleep and fertility. Participants will use a wireless wearable device mounted on the finger to measure sleep in the weeks preceding and following an embryo transfer during treatment with in vitro fertilization. The investigators hope that these findings will inform future therapies that improve sleep and fertility outcomes.
This prospective randomized trial will compare outcomes in patients receiving aspirin in combination with a low-molecular weight heparin and those under this center's standard protocol receiving neither medication, in order to determine if these medications may improve success rates.
This multicenter, two-arm, open-label, cluster-randomized controlled trial will be conducted in two hospitals in China, focusing on couples with primary female-factor infertility who are undergoing their 1st or 2nd In Vitro Fertilization and Embryo Transfer (IVF-ET) treatments. Evidence suggests that infertile women have a higher risk of experiencing Intimate Partner Violence (IPV). The trial aims to develop and evaluate a couple-based Gender-Transformative Intervention (GTI) for infertile couples to reduce IPV prevalence. Approximately 240 couples (120 per group) will be enrolled. Clusters (6 couples/cluster) will be allocated to two groups at a ratio of 1:1- GTI group and standard care group. All clusters will be randomized through stratified block randomization according to the study sites. The intervention involves educating couples about reproductive health and intimate relationships, fostering gender equality awareness, and promoting mutual understanding and support. Researchers will compare the intervention group to a control group to see if the GTI intervention results in a reduced prevalence rate of IPV and improvements in the secondary outcomes including the attitude towards male gender roles, marital quality and satisfaction, clinical pregnancy rate, and ongoing pregnancy rate.
This study is a prospective ranzomized analysis including 372 human oocytes from 44 women. Half of the oocytes from the same patient will be randomly allocated to induce oocyte activation using two protocols: in protocol nº 1 we will use ionomycin (prepared solution), protocol nª2 A23187 (GM508 CultActive Gynemed) will be applied. Non treated oocytes will serve as control. Oocyte fertilization rates, embryo development and embryo quality will be analyzed. Obstetrics variables of offspring will be also followed and compared.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the effect of complex balneotherapy and physiotherapy treatment among infertile women treated in the Harkany Thermal Rehabilitation Center between July 01, 2007 and December 31, 2021. The main questions it aims to answer are: - To what extent can the complex balneotherapy and physiotherapy treatment be an effective additional therapy in female infertility? - What are the clinical changes behind infertility that can be helped by the complex balneotherapy and physiotherapy treatment? Participants will be asked to answer a questionnaire that we have prepared.
In vitro maturation (IVM) is a technique for obtaining potentially fertilizable oocytes from immature oocytes. An oocyte must be mature both nuclearly and cytoplasmically in order to be competent in the reproductive process. Nuclear maturation involves an oocyte in metaphase II stage and is easily evaluated for its morphology. However, cytoplasmic maturation can only be evaluated by in vitro fertilization of that oocyte. A mature nuclear and cytoplasmic oocyte is the one capable of producing a viable embryo. This study aims to optimize the in vitro maturation (IVM) technique to achieve nuclear mature oocytes, i.e., to mature the oocytes up to the metaphase II stage. In addition, an artificial oocyte activation (AOA) will be carried out to check the cytoplasmic maturation of the oocytes, avoiding the generation of potentially viable embryos. This study corresponds to a second phase of the pilot study for the development of this technique in our IVF laboratory. We will use all we have learned in the first phase, as well as the experience acquired, to advance in the optimization of this protocol. The correct functioning of this IVM technique would mean a reduction in the costs of ovarian stimulation treatments, as lower doses and shorter stimulation times are required, which implies lower risks for women derived from the medication and less stress for them.
