Objective: Cessation of gonadotropin stimulation might affect follicular growth in patients in POSEIDON groups 3 and 4, which are unresponsive to high-dose stimulation.
Materials And Methods: In this retrospective study, data were extracted from the medical records of patients treated at the Acıbadem Maslak Hospital Assisted Reproductive Technologies Unit between November 2010 and December 2020. Eighty-five patients who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were included in the study.
Background: With the introduction of the dual triggering-gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog and recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) combination, women with a history of low mature oocyte proportion and empty follicle syndrome were shown to benefit from the dual trigger.
Objective: To investigate whether dual triggering of oocyte maturation with a GnRH agonist (GnRHa) combined with hCG can affect the euploidy rate and improve in vitro fertilization outcomes for normoresponder women.
Materials And Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 494 women who underwent controlled ovarian stimulation with hCG (n = 274) or dual triggering (hCG+GnRHa, n = 220) at Acibadem Maslak hospital, Assisted Reproductive Unit, from January 2019-2022 were enrolled in this study.
Aim: To evaluate whether fasting during Ramadan has any significant effects on maternal oxidative stress or fetal health in healthy, pregnant women with an uncomplicated, second-trimester, singleton pregnancy.
Methods: During the month of Ramadan, 1-29 September 2008, 42 fasting and 30 non-fasting pregnant women were enrolled in this prospective controlled study. Total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidant status (TOS) and the oxidative stress index (OSI) were measured from maternal serum samples taken on a fasting day during Ramadan.
Objective: To compare the levels of ceruloplasmin (cp) in the amniotic fluids and maternal bloods of second trimester fetuses with and without neural tube defects (NTD).
Materials And Methods: 66 pregnant women were included in the study. Amniocentesis was performed in 32 women in a patient group diagnosed as NTD or anencephaly and 34 pregnants in a control group with positive Down Syndrome screening test.
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of Morgagni hydatid (MH) on infertility by comparing women known to be fertile and infertile with respect to MH frequency.
Methods: The study was conducted in Gaziantep University Faculty of Medicine with the precipitation of total 455 patients. The 240 of them were pregnant to whom planned cesarean section (C/S) and the other 215 were infertile one who have undergone diagnostic laparoscopy.
