This study aimed to examine whether genotype categories of high-risk human papillomaviruses (HR-HPVs), when divided into HPV16/18, HPV 31/33/45/52/58, and HPV35/39/51/56/59/68, had an effect on the time required for and the proportion of cases that progressed to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 3 among women with CIN2. A total of 160 women aged 20-49 years and having CIN2 were recruited between January 2008 and June 2018. The time required for progression to CIN3 was determined by Kaplan-Meier time-to-event analysis.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study aimed to assess how meiotic maturation timing and the duration of pronucleus presence (DPP) influence the success of parthenogenetic activation in embryos.
  • - Researchers analyzed data from eight patients with endometrioid adenocarcinoma and 65 IVF patients, focusing on the timing of polar body release and embryo development through time-lapse imaging.
  • - Findings revealed that an optimal DPP is crucial for embryo development, with parthenogenetic activation showing poorer outcomes compared to ICSI, especially when DPP was too short or too long.
