Mechanisms of ovarian aging

Selena U. Park et al.

Summary: Ovarian aging is associated with the loss of both quantity and quality of oocytes in women, leading to reproductive and general health consequences such as infertility. While the molecular mechanisms underlying ovarian aging are not fully understood, factors such as chromosomal abnormalities, DNA damage, and mitochondrial dysfunction play important roles. Further research in this area may lead to advancements in diagnostics and therapeutics for women's reproductive health.

Cumulative live birth rate after IVF: trend over time and the impact of blastocyst culture and vitrification

Zoha Saket et al.

Summary: The study shows that cumulative live birth rate per oocyte aspiration has significantly increased over an 11-year period, from 27.0% to 36.3%, in parallel with an increase in blastocyst transfer and vitrification. The findings suggest that blastocyst transfer, especially in frozen embryo transfer cycles using vitrification, is a key factor contributing to the improved live birth rates over time.
