Research Question: Does an association exist between ovarian reserve, ovarian response and embryonic euploidy in female patients under age 35 years?

Design: This was a retrospective analysis of intracytoplasmic sperm injection and preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies cycles among patients enrolled at Bahceci Fulya IVF Center between January 2016 and August 2019. A total of 133 patients in POSEIDON group 1 (suboptimal responder; female age <35 years, antral follicle count [AFC] ≥5, number of oocytes retrieved <10) (group A), 133 patients in POSEIDON group 3 (expected low responder; female age <35 years, AFC <5) (group B) and 323 in the non-low-prognosis group (female age <35 years, AFC ≥5 and number of oocytes retrieved >9) (group C) were included.

Results: There was no significant difference in euploidy rate per embryo among the three groups (61.

Purpose: To evaluate the factors that affect the incidence of euploid balanced embryos and interchromosomal effect (ICE) in carriers of different structural rearrangements.

Methods: This retrospective study includes 95 couples with reciprocal translocations (RecT) and 36 couples with Robertsonian translocations (RobT) undergoing Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Structural Rearrangements (PGT-SR) between March 2016 and July 2019. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was the technique used coupled with trophectoderm (TE) biopsy.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the pain level of each muscle during an EMG study and also search for any association between the pain levels and gender.

Methods: Two hundred and twenty-seven subjects (166 females and 111 males) participated in the present study. Numeric analogue scale (NAS) was obtained from the patients after needle EMG for each muscle.
