The effect of endometrial scratching on reproductive outcomes in infertile women undergoing IVF treatment cycles.

This study was a Randomised Controlled Trial aiming to evaluate the effect of Endometrial Scratching (ES) on fertility rate. Participants were primary infertile women undergoing IVF treatment. ES for the intervention group was done using endometrial aspiration in the luteal phase of the cycle before embryo transfer.

Interleukin 22 Expression During the Implantation Window in the Endometrium of Women with Unexplained Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Unexplained Infertility Compared to Healthy Parturient Individuals.

We evaluated the expression of interleukin-22 (IL-22) in the endometrium of women with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (uRPL) and unexplained infertility (UI) compared to the women with normal pregnancies. Endometrial tissues were collected from 20 women with UI, 20 women with uRPL, and 24 healthy women as a control group. Immunohistochemical expression and gene expression of IL-22 were analyzed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) methods.

Comparing the Effectiveness of Doing Intra-uterine Insemination 36 and 42 Hours After Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) Injection on Pregnancy Rate: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is an assisted conception technique that involves the deposition of a processed semen sample in the upper uterine cavity, overcoming natural barriers to sperm ascent in the female reproductive tract. Hence, we compared the results of doing intra-uterine insemination 36 and 42 hours after human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone injection to achieve clinical and chemical pregnancy rates. One hundred and sixty infertile women with unexplained infertility participated in this clinical trial.

An association study of polymorphisms in the H19 imprinted gene in an Iranian population with the risk of polycystic ovary syndrome.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most common endocrinopathies that causes problems in female fertility at the reproductive age. PCOS is a multifactorial disease, with genetic factors playing a crucial role in its development. H19 is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expressed from the maternal chromosome, which is correlated with PCOS.

The effects of DICER1 and DROSHA polymorphisms on susceptibility to recurrent spontaneous abortion.

Background: Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is a serious problem in pregnancy. The exact etiology of RSA is unknown in more than 50% of all the patients. However, genetic variations are known as susceptibility factors for idiopathic RSA.
