Severe male factor in in vitro fertilization: definition, prevalence, and treatment. An update

Rossella Mazzilli et al.

Summary: Male factor infertility accounts for a significant proportion of infertility cases, with the development of ICSI providing hope for severe male factor cases. Treatment outcomes tend to be better when female partners are younger with good ovarian reserve, while challenges arise when male factor infertility is coupled with diminished ovarian reserve and advanced maternal age.

Clinical Outcomes Deriving from Transfer of Blastocysts Developed in Day 7: a Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Frozen-Thawed IVF Cycles

Laura Corti et al.

Summary: This study found that blastocysts developed on day 7 compared to day 5/6 showed significantly lower clinical pregnancy rates and live birth rates after transfer. However, it does not support discarding slow-developing embryos.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the impact of cryo-storage duration on clinical, obstetric and perinatal outcomes after vitrified-warmed euploid blastocyst transfer. It concluded that cryo-storage duration does not affect these outcomes.

Fine-tuning IVF laboratory key performance indicators of the Vienna consensus according to female age

Carlotta Zaca et al.

Summary: This study aimed to test the validity of Vienna consensus laboratory key performance indicators (KPIs) in monitoring treatment outcomes in women of different age ranges. The results demonstrated that most laboratory outcome measures were reliable regardless of female age, but KPIs related to extended embryo culture may need to be fine-tuned for older women.

Age-specific blastocyst conversion rates in embryo cryopreservation cycles

Phillip A. Romanski et al.

Summary: The blastocyst conversion rate in embryo cryopreservation cycles remains statistically comparable until the age of 40, but significantly declines for patients aged 41 and above. However, the mature oocyte and fertilization rates are not affected by increasing age until the age of 44.

The influence of day 3 embryo cell number on the clinical pregnancy and live birth rates of day 5 single blastocyst transfer from frozen embryo transfer cycles

Jie Wang et al.

Summary: This retrospective study suggests that the day 3 embryo cell number has an influence on the clinical pregnancy and live birth rates of day 5 single blastocyst transfer in frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles. As the day 3 embryo cell number increases, the clinical pregnancy and live birth rates also increase, especially when fair- and poor-quality blastocysts are transferred.

Leave the past behind: women' reproductive history shows no association with blastocysts' euploidy and limited association with live birth rates after euploid embryo transfers

Danilo Cimadomo et al.

Summary: The study found no association between patients' reproductive history and the mean euploidy rates per biopsied blastocysts, but reported a lower live birth rate after euploid blastocyst transfer in women with a history of repeated implantation failure. The clinical outcomes of the first single vitrified-warmed euploid blastocyst transfer showed an implantation rate of 51%, a miscarriage rate of 14%, and a live birth rate of 44%.

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.

Improving Reporting of Clinical Studies Using the POSEIDON Criteria: POSORT Guidelines

Sandro C. Esteves et al.

Summary: The POSEIDON criteria were developed to help identify low-prognosis patients undergoing assisted reproductive technology and guide therapeutic strategies. However, existing evidence shows inconsistent and incomplete reporting, prompting the development of guidelines to improve reporting quality. The ultimate goal is to advance knowledge on the clinical use of POSEIDON criteria for the benefit of patients, clinicians, and the infertility community.

Recombinant human luteinizing hormone co-treatment in ovarian stimulation for assisted reproductive technology in women of advanced reproductive age: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Alessandro Conforti et al.

Summary: Studies suggest that LH can improve IVF outcomes in older women by optimizing androgen production. A meta-analysis found that r-hFSH/r-hLH co-treatment was more effective in improving clinical pregnancy and implantation rates in women aged 35-40, despite retrieving fewer oocytes compared to r-hFSH monotherapy. More research is needed to confirm these findings.

Impact of Ovarian Yield-Number of Total and Mature Oocytes Per Antral Follicular Count-On Live Birth Occurrence After IVF Treatment

Marine Poulain et al.

Summary: The study found that the ratios of Oc/AFC and MII/AFC were associated with live birth rate and could be promising indicators for assessing ovarian response. However, the ratios of Oc/AMH and MII/AMH did not affect the live birth rate or implantation rate after the first or cumulative embryo transfer.

The Maribor consensus: report of an expert meeting on the development of performance indicators for clinical practice in ART

Veljko Vlaisavljevic et al.

Summary: The study recommends six performance indicators for monitoring clinical work in assisted reproductive technology, including cycle cancellation rate, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome rate, proportion of mature oocytes at ICSI, complication rate after oocyte pick-up, clinical pregnancy rate, and multiple pregnancy rate. These indicators aim to enhance the quality of ART practice and are essential for managing staff performance.
