Project description:Research Question: Does reproductive outcome differ among the various subgroups of poor ovarian responders according to the Bologna criteria? Design: This was a retrospective, cohort study including poor ovarian responders according to Bologna criteria, undergoing an ICSI cycle from January 2011 until December 2017. Patients were divided into four groups: (1) age ? 40 years and abnormal ovarian response test, (2) age ? 40 years, abnormal ovarian reserve test and one previous poor response to stimulation, (3) age ? 40 years and one previous poor response, (4) abnormal ovarian reserve test and one previous poor response. Result(s): Overall, 846 cycles in 706 Bologna poor ovarian responders were included: 310 cycles in group 1, 169 in group 2, 52 in group 3, and 315 in group 4. There were significant differences in age, antral follicle count, antimüllerian hormone, cycle cancellation rates, and number of retrieved oocytes between the four groups. Live birth and cumulative live birth rate differed significantly between groups and were highest in Group 4 [Live birth rate: 7.4% (1) vs. 4.1% (2) vs. 5.8% (3) vs. 13.4% (4), p = 0.001 and Cumulative live birth rate: 8.3% (1) vs. 4.1 % (2) vs. 9.6% (3) vs. 16.8% (4) p < 0.001]. The multivariate GEE analysis revealed that the number of MIIs and the Bologna criteria pattern were the variables which were significantly associated with cumulative live birth rate. Conclusion(s): Poor ovarian responders represent a heterogeneous population. The young subpopulation has a better clinical prognosis in terms of fresh and cumulative live birth rate.

Project description:Objective The aim of this study was to describe the cumulative live birth rates (CLBRs) of young women with or without low prognosis according to the POSEIDON criteria after IVF/ICSI cycles and to investigate whether the diagnosis of low prognosis increases the risk of abnormal birth outcomes. Design Retrospective study. Setting A single reproductive medicine center. Population From January 2016 to October 2020, there were 17,893 patients (<35 years) involved. After screening, 4,105 women were included in POSEIDON group 1, 1,375 women were included in POSEIDON group 3, and 11,876 women were defined as non-POSEIDON. Intervention(s) Baseline serum AMH level was measured on the D2–D3 of menstrual cycle before IVF/ICSI treatment. Main outcome measure(s) Cumulative live birth rate (CLBR), birth outcomes. Result(s) After four stimulation cycles, the CLBRs in POSEIDON group 1, POSEIDON group 3, and non-POSEIDON group reached 67.9% (95% CI, 66.5%–69.3%), 51.9% (95% CI, 49.2%–54.5%), and 79.6% (95% CI, 78.9%–80.3%), respectively. There was no difference in gestational age, preterm delivery, cesarean delivery, and low birth weight infants between the three groups, but macrosomia was significantly higher in non-POSEIDON group, after adjusting for maternal age and BMI. Conclusion(s) The POSEIDON group shows lower CLBRs than the non-POSEIDON group in young women, while the risk of abnormal birth outcomes in the POSEIDON group will not increase.

Project description:ObjectiveTo study the influence of endometriosis activity on the pregnancy outcomes of patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF) in in-vitro fertilization/intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles. The pregnancy outcomes were compared between RIF patients with endometriosis who received treatment at different occasions to explore the appropriate treatment plan for these patients and to optimize the pregnancy-support strategies.DesignAmbispective cohort study.MethodsA total of 330 patients with endometriosis were enrolled from 2008 to 2018 and included 1043 IVF/ICSI cycles. All patients were diagnosed with RIF after IVF/ICSI. Patients were assigned to three subtypes according to different control states of endometriosis, including the untreated, early-treatment, and late-treatment groups. The clinical pregnancy rate, live birth rate, and cumulative live birth rate of endometriosis patients with RIF were the main outcomes; additionally, the fertilization rate, available embryonic rate, and high-quality embryonic rate were also compared.ResultsThe early-treatment and late-treatment groups showed higher cumulative live birth rate than the untreated group (early-treated 43.6% vs. late-treated 46.3% vs. untreated 27.7%, P<0.001), though patients in the two treatment groups had higher rates of adenomyosis and ovarian surgery. The two treatment group showed a better laboratory result than the untreated and especially, the early-treatment group. The untreated group (46.24%) had a lower IVF fertilization rate than the treated group (early-treated [64.40%] and late-treated [60.27%] (P<0.001). In addition, the rates of available embryos and high-quality embryos in the early-treated group were much higher those that in the untreated group (90.30% vs. 85.20%, 76.50% vs. 64.47%). Kaplan-Meier curve showed that patients in the untreated group needed a mean of 23.126 months to achieve one live birth; whereas those in the treated group needed a comparatively shorter duration (early-treated: 18.479 ± 0.882 months and late-treated: 14.183 ± 1.102 months, respectively).ConclusionEndometriosis has a negative influence on IVF/ICSI outcome. The control of endometriosis activity can result in a higher cumulative live birth rate in patients. It is necessary for endometriosis patients to receive medical treatment to achieve a better prognosis especially for those with RIF.

Project description:Recently, perinatal outcomes and cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) have widely been utilized to assess the fertility outcomes and safety of assisted reproductive technology (ART), but more robust research is needed to address the success rates of live-healthy births resulting from this procedure, particularly for patients with low prognosis. This study aims to assess and comparative perinatal outcomes and CLBR per cycle of in vitro fertilization/Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) between four groups of low prognosis characterized by POSEIDON criteria. A retrospective assessment was done among infertile women with a low prognosis undergoing IVF/ICSI at a reproductive center in China. Data were collected between January 2011 and December 2015 with a follow-up of at least two years, and censoring was defined by three-cycle completion, discontinuation, or having a live birth. Participants were grouped into 4 groups according to the POSEIDON classification (POSEIDON1, POSEIDON2, POSEIDON3, and POSEIDON4). The main outcomes were perinatal and obstetric outcomes with CLBR per cycle after IVF/ICSI procedure. And IVF/ICSI-technique outcomes as a secondary outcome. Statistical analyses were performed by SPSS, and a p value of < 0.05 was considered significant. A total of 461 eligible participants underwent a total of 825 IVF/ICSI cycles. POSEIDON1 had the best perinatal outcomes in terms of live births (≥ 28w) (54.8%). POSEIDON4 had a higher risk for perinatal and obstetric complications with abortion rate (9.8%); LBW (11.7%), PTD (23.5%), PROM (11.7%), and gestational diabetes (17.6%). POSEIDON2 had a high rate for malpresentation (14.2%), and cesarean delivery(57.2%), while POSEIDON3 was much associated with the occurrences of placenta previa (9.3%) compared to other groups (p value = 0.001). After adjusting odds ratio by age and BMI, POSEIDON4 had the least odds for biochemical pregnancy (p value = 0.019); and the least odds for clinical pregnancy (p value = 0.001) of the four groups. CLBR per cycle was better in POSEIDON1 and increased with an increasing number of cycles in all groups during the three cycles. Conservative CLBR after three complete cycles were 77.27%, 42.52%, 51.4% and 22.34%, while optimistic CLBR were 79.01%, 51.19%, 58.59% and 34.46% in POSEIDON1 to POSEIDON4, respectively. Younger women with low prognosis and normal ovarian reserve have a higher probability for live births and better perinatal outcomes compared with older women with poor or normal ovarian reserve. Besides, young women with low prognosis, despite ovarian reserve status, can increase their probability of conception and get relatively higher CLBR by undergoing multiple cycles of IVF/ICSI. Age is therefore considered as a critical parameter in predicting the perinatal outcome and CLBR.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the association between baseline serum Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels and IVF/ICSI outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).DesignRetrospective study.SettingReproductive medicine center in a hospital.Population2436 PCOS patients (Rotterdam criteria) who underwent their first fresh IVF/ICSI cycles were divided into three groups on the basis of the <25th (Group 1, n=611), 25 to 75th (Group 2, n=1216), or >75th (Group 3, n=609) percentile of baseline serum AMH level.InterventionsBaseline serum AMH levels measured on the 2-3 days of spontaneous menstrual cycle before IVF/ICSI treatment.Main outcome measuresLive birth rate (LBR), cumulative live birth rate (CLBR), clinical pregnancy rate (CPR), and normal fertilization rate (FR).ResultsThe LBR, CPR, and FR were significantly increased in Group 1 than Group 2 and Group 3, however, CLBR was similar between the three groups. The LBR were 46.6%, 40.5%, and 39.4% in Group 1, Group 2, and Group 3 respectively. The CPR were 53.0%, 47.0%, and 45.5%, respectively. The FR was highest in Group 1 (61.7%, P<0.05), but there was no uniform reverse trend with the AMH level. CLBR were 68.7%, 70.4%, and 71.3%, respectively. Although women in Group 1 were older (p < 0.05) and had higher body mass index (BMI) (p < 0.05), binomial logistic regression analysis used age, BMI, FSH, and AMH as independent variables indicated that only AMH was significantly associated with LBR and CPR. Nevertheless, binomial logistic regression analysis used age, BMI, FSH, AMH, and the number of retrieved oocytes as independent variables indicated that only the number of retrieved oocytes was significantly correlated with CLBR. After stratifying by age, the negative relationship between baseline AMH level and LBR and CPR remained only in the patients <30 years old.ConclusionsHigher baseline AMH level in PCOS women resulted in lower LBR, CPR, and FR but did not influence CLBR.

Project description:In order to find out to what extent ovarian aging could be compensated by the in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) treatments, a total of 4102 women above the age of 35 undergoing 6489 complete cycles from 2009 to 2015 with follow-up visits until 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Cumulative live birth rates (CLBRs) across multiple IVF/ICSI cycles were compared in the study population stratified by age and ovarian reserve (classified by the POSEIDON criteria). Younger patients (aged between 35 and 40) could well benefit from repeat IVF treatments, with the optimal CLBRs ranging from 62%-72% for up to four complete cycles. However, the CLBRs sharply declined to 7.7%-40% in older patients (>40yrs). In light of ovarian reserve, the optimal-estimated-four-cycle CLBR of younger patients (35-40yrs) in POSEIDON group 2 could approached to those with normal ovarian response (non-POSEIDON), with 57.3%-70% versus 74.5%-81% respectively. However, the CLBR of older patients (>40yrs) in POSEIDON group 2 only reached 50% of their counterparts. Extending the number of IVF cycles beyond three or four is effective for advanced-aged women, especially in younger normal responders (non-POSEIDON) and unexpected poor/suboptimal responders (POSEIDON group 2). The real turning point at which female fecundity dropped after multiple IVF cycles is at the age of 40.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:The study aimed to investigate the impact of the peak E2 level during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COS) on the cumulative live birth rate (cLBR) in non-PCOS women with normal ovarian reserve. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Women between 20 and 39 years were included. Donor cycles and patients who never experienced embryo transfer were excluded. Multivariable regression and smooth curve fitting were applied for statistical analysis. RESULTS:A total of 1141 patients were included. The mean age, basal AFC, peak E2 level, and number of retrieved oocyte were 30.0?±?3.7 years old, 16.8?±?6.7, 3911.0?±?1302.9 pg/ml, and 13.6?±?5.5, respectively. In the overall population of the cohort, cLBR, miscarriage rate, and preterm birth rate were 66.9%, 7.4%, and 13.7%, respectively. The results of multivariable regression analysis failed to show the impact of peak E2 on the cLBR [OR (95%CI) 0.995 (0.982, 1.009), P?=?0.486]. However, the result of smooth curve fitting indicated that when the peak E2 was lower than 2185 pg/ml, the cLBR increased about 12% with 100 pg/ml increasing of the peak E2. When the peak E2 was higher than 6136 pg/ml, the cLBR decreased about 10% with 100 pg/ml increasing of the peak E2. CONCLUSION:We concluded that the peak E2 level on hCG trigger day is associated with the cLBR in a segmental pattern. There should be an appropriate range of the peak E2 level during COS to achieve a relative best cLBR in non-PCOS patients using stimulating protocol mainly based on GnRH agonist; however, the cutoff value must vary in different centers.

Project description:PurposeChromosomal polymorphisms are associated with infertility, but their effects on assisted reproductive outcomes are still quite conflicting, especially after IVF treatment. This study evaluated the role of chromosomal polymorphisms of different genders in IVF pregnancy outcomes.MethodsFour hundred and twenty-five infertile couples undergoing IVF treatment were divided into three groups: 214 couples with normal chromosomes (group A, control group), 86 couples with female polymorphisms (group B), and 125 couples with male polymorphisms (group C). The pregnancy outcomes after the first and cumulative transfer cycles were analyzed, and the main outcome measures were live birth rate (LBR) after the first transfer cycle and cumulative LBR after a complete IVF cycle.ResultsComparison of pregnancy outcomes after the first transfer cycle within group A, group B, and group C demonstrated a similar LBR as well as other rates of implantation, clinical pregnancy, early miscarriage, and ongoing pregnancy (P > 0.05). However, the analysis of cumulative pregnancy outcomes indicated that compared with group A, group C had a significantly lower LBR per cycle (80.4 vs 68.00%), for a rate ratio of 1.182 (95% CI 1.030 to 1.356, P = 0.01) and a significantly higher cumulative early miscarriage rate (EMR) among clinical pregnancies (7.2 vs 14.7%), for a rate ratio of 0.489 (95% CI 0.248 to 0.963, P = 0.035).ConclusionCouples with chromosomal polymorphisms in only male partners have poor pregnancy outcomes after IVF treatment manifesting as high cumulative EMR and low LBR after a complete cycle.

Project description:PURPOSE:To investigate the cumulative live birth (cLB) rate of one complete freeze-all-IVF cycle in a general infertile population and to investigate patient and treatment variables that predict blastocyst development and live birth (LB). METHOD:In a retrospective observational study, the data of all IVF cycles performed between 1 February 2015 and 31 January 2016 at a single IVF centre was investigated. In the study, patient-couples were followed up for 18 months following oocyte retrieval. After exclusions, the patient and treatment variables of 1582 patient-couples who underwent treatment were included in the analyses. RESULTS:The median time interval between the oocyte retrieval attempt and the frozen embryo transfer (FET) in which LB was achieved was 38.0 (35.0-67.0) days. The variables of freeze-all-IVF cycles with single blastocyst FET selected by multiple logistic regression to predict LB significantly were female age, infertility duration, FET number (i.e. 1st, 2nd, or ??3rd FET), and blastocyst quality. In a regression adjusting for female age, the number of blastocysts transferred, and oocyte number group (1-3, 4-9, 10-15, and >?15), none of the oocyte number groups were selected to predict LB of 1st FET, significantly. While the per transfer LB rates decreased linearly from the 1st (56.5%) to the 3rd (36.4%) FET, the cLB rate increased from 47.3% after the 1st FET to 55.0% after a 3rd possible FET. CONCLUSION:The cLB rate of one complete freeze-all-IVF cycle of a general infertile population, with 18-month follow-up, was 55.0%. In freeze-all-IVF, ovarian reserve variables were not selected by regression models to predict LB, significantly.

Project description:BackgroundsDespite the great advances in assisted reproductive technology (ART), poor ovarian response (POR) is still one of the most challenging tasks in reproductive medicine. This predictive model we developed aims to predict the individual probability of clinical pregnancy failure for poor ovarian responders (PORs) under in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI).MethodsThe nomogram was developed in 281 patients with POR according to the Bologna criteria from January 2016 to December 2019, with 179 in the training group and 102 in the validation group. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify characteristics that were associated with clinical pregnancy failure. The nomogram was constructed based on regression coefficients. Performance was evaluated using both calibration and discrimination.ResultsAge >35 years, body mass index (BMI) >24 kg/m2, basic follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) >10 mIU/ml, basic E2 >60 pg/ml, type B or C of endometrium on human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) day, and the number of high-quality embryos <2 were associated with pregnancy failure of POR patients. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of the training set is 0.786 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.710-0.861), and AUC in the validation set is 0.748 (95% CI: 0.668-0.827), showing a satisfactory goodness of fit and discrimination ability in this nomogram.ConclusionOur nomogram can predict the probability of clinical pregnancy failure in PORs before embryo transfer in IVF/ICSI procedure, to help practitioners make appropriate clinical decisions and to help infertile couples manage their expectations.
