The impact of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) on embryo chromosomal competence during in vitro fertilization (IVF) remains poorly defined. This study aimed to evaluate embryo euploidy rates among patients with …
Environmental microbiological monitoring is mandatory in IVF laboratories; however, procedure-specific risk assessment across the entire medically assisted reproduction workflow remains limited. This multicenter study, named "SMILE" (Study of Environmental Microbiological …
How do unoperated ovarian endometriomas affect ovarian response during ovarian stimulation cycles?
This study aimed to investigate the impacts of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the pregnancy outcomes of infertile individuals with endometriosis after in vitro fertilization and …
Assisted reproductive treatment for women with endometriosis and diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) is challenging, and the optimal controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) protocol for this population remains uncertain. This study compared …
Decidual changes in deep pelvic endometriosis (DPE) are extremely rare. During pregnancy, endometriotic activity and symptoms diminish due to hormonal changes, whereas the endometrial lining undergoes decidualization in response to …
Current guidelines recommend laparoscopic cystectomy for ovarian endometrioma (OMA) ≥4 cm before fertility treatment, yet cystectomy inevitably damages ovarian reserve. While recent large-scale studies have confirmed that cystectomy reduces antimüllerian …
Is endometriosis associated with alterations in the intraovarian steroidogenic milieu in women undergoing IVF compared with rigorously matched women without the disease?
Presence of embryo-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in spent culture medium (SCM) represents a promising non-invasive alternative to the conventional preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). The present study evaluated the feasibility of …
Endometriosis is a multifactorial, chronic inflammatory disorder that affects a substantial proportion of women during their reproductive years and is frequently associated with pelvic pain and infertility. Accumulating evidence suggests …
