Filter by:The health toxicity of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), present in air and food, generated during energy production and waste incineration, is well known. PAHs can activate the aryl hydrocarbon receptor, which may interact with classic estrogen receptors and modify estrogen-dependent inflammation in endometriosis. There is no data on the hypothetical role of PAHs in the etiopathogenesis of endometriosis. The aim was to compare PAHs concentrations in visceral fat in women with endometriosis and idiopathic infertility.
. This study aimed to determine and compare the effect of vaginal sildenafil citrate and estradiol valerate on endometrial thickness, blood flow and pregnancy rates in infertile women.
Follitropin delta (Rekovelle) algorithm established by Ferring provides personalized gonadotrophin doses based on each patient's weight and AMH. As a result, risks of stimulation failure or ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) during an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle are minimized. As a standard practice for OHSS prevention at clinique ovo, women undergoing IVF will have a scheduled ultrasound and blood test on the sixth day of their stimulation treatment. However, with the determination of the Rekovelle and Menopur algorithm, the risks of OHSS before the tenth day have been considerably minimized.
In vivo, the zona pellucida (ZP) of the oocyte can bind to normally functional sperm. The ZP-sperm interaction is one of the final steps of natural selection during their journey in the female reproductive tract. In the current study, we evaluated the ability of the ZP of immature oocytes to harvest the fittest sperm. We compared the embryological outcomes of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) using conventionally selected sperm (control group) and ZP-bound sperm (intervention group). Our results showed no statistically significant superiority for the ZP binding technique over the conventional sperm selection with respect to the rates of fertilization and cleavage. However; the rates of blastocyst formation and high-quality blastocysts were significantly improved in the intervention group compare to the control group. These findings imply that the proposed technique can serve as a cost-effective and natural sperm selection method that has the potential to enhance the embryological and clinical outcomes of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
The goal of this observational study is to determine is there an association between the rates of aneuploidy and the different ranges of serum Antimullerian hormone (AMH) levels. Retrospective, single-centre study of patients undergoing IVF and preimplantation genetic testing with aneuploidy at the blastocyst stage between January 2018 and December 2022.
Aim: With the project, mobile application supported cognitive awareness applications in women receiving infertility treatment; The aim of this study was to measure the effect of infertile women on their psychosocial status. Method: It was planned as a randomized controlled study. It was aimed to reduce stress and increase awareness by applying mindfulness/cognitive awareness to women undergoing infertility treatment. For this reason, special mindfulness suggestions were created for infertile women by taking the opinion of an expert in the field. Mindfulness suggestions created specifically for women with infertility were recorded. The recordings were varied according to the treatment stages, with an average duration of 40 minutes. These audio recordings were presented with a mobile application developed for infertile women. The mobile application called IVFMind was designed for infertile women. The application consists of mindfulness audio recordings and reading sections. The experimental group (n:17) installed this application on their phones and listened to the audio recordings regularly. Cognitive awareness (BIFO), depression-anxiety (DASS 21), infertility self-efficacy and fertility adjustment scales were administered to the experimental and control groups (N:34). Scales were done as pre-test and post-test. The mobile application evaluation form was filled in the experimental group.
In this controlled trial, poor ovarian responder women will be treated with transplantation of autologous menstrual blood stem cells. The investigators will attempt to assess the safety and efficacy of this procedure for the treatment of infertility in POR patients compared to control group.
It was randomised controlled study to compare the efficacy of clomiphene and letrozole in polycystic ovarian syndrome(PCOS) women with infertility.The aim was to select more appropriate treatment for ovulation induction in PCOS women.
It is important that effective catheter fixation will reduce the risk of catheter unavailability for specific reasons and the incidence of catheter-related complications. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of sterile transparent film dressing and tape methods used in pe- ripheral intravenous catheter application in newborns on the duration of catheter stay and the development of catheter-related complications.
The success of IVF is influenced by factors as cause of infertility and age. Furthermore, there is a large influence of external factors, from the laboratory environment, handling and cultivation of gametes and embryos. The existence of factors capable of affecting the success of the treatment lead to the need of a quality control to attenuate the unfavorable effects. After ovarian stimulation, follicular aspiration is performed. At this moment, factors such as aspiration technique, needle type and temperature are the main variables to be controlled. It is known that oocytes are the more sensitive cells to temperature fluctuations. Currently, the standard protocol for follicular aspiration does not include the warming of the aspiration needle. However, due to the existing evidence in the literature, that the follicular fluid temperature drops during the aspiration procedure, this work aims to evaluate the influence of a pre warming of the aspiration needle as a new protocol.
