Article Synopsis
  • Diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) and primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) significantly contribute to female infertility, with a recent study finding a genetic cause in 29.3% of POI cases.
  • A prospective study of 120 patients with unexplained DOR revealed a 24.2% diagnostic yield using advanced sequencing technology to identify genes related to various biological pathways.
  • Findings indicated that impaired oocyte quality is linked to meiosis/DNA repair genes, and the study supports the need for genetic testing as a routine part of infertility diagnosis and a potential predictor for progression to POI.

Study Question: Is the total number of oocytes retrieved with dual ovarian stimulation in the same cycle (duostim) higher than with two consecutive antagonist cycles in poor responders?

Summary Answer: Based on the number of total and mature oocytes retrieved in women with poor ovarian response (POR), there is no benefit of duostim versus two consecutive antagonist cycles.

What Is Known Already: Recent studies have shown the ability to obtain oocytes with equivalent quality from the follicular and the luteal phase, and a higher number of oocytes within one cycle when using duostim. If during follicular stimulation smaller follicles are sensitized and recruited, this may increase the number of follicles selected in the consecutive luteal phase stimulation, as shown in non-randomized controlled trials (RCT).

Research Question: Today, women can plan for parenthood and family life, but delaying pregnancy is often associated with anxiety regarding the question of future fertility. We aim to evaluate if there is a benefit to offering fertility evaluation to all women, including those who have no immediate plans for pregnancy.

Design: We developed in our reproductive center a new concept of an all-in-one ultrasound open to all women of reproductive age.

Research Question: What are the real-life oncofertility practices in young women diagnosed with breast cancer?

Design: The FEERIC (FErtility, prEgnancy, contRaceptIon after breast Cancer in France) study is a web-based cohort study launched with the French collaborative research platform Seintinelles. The current work is based on the enrolment self-administered questionnaire of 517 patients with prior breast cancer diagnosis, free from relapse and aged 18 to 43 years at inclusion (from 12 March 2018 to 27 June 2019).

Results: Median age at breast cancer diagnosis was 33.

Purpose: To apply text mining (TM) technology on electronic medical records (EMRs) of patients with breast cancer (BC) to retrieve the occurrence of a pregnancy after BC diagnosis and compare its performance to manual curation.

Materials And Methods: The training cohort (Cohort A) comprised 344 patients with BC age ≤ 40 years old treated at Institut Curie between 2005 and 2007. Manual curation consisted in manually reviewing each EMR to retrieve pregnancies.
