Article Synopsis
- The study investigated if hCG levels measured 10 days after a cleaved embryo transfer can help predict pregnancy and delivery results.
- It analyzed data from 5,840 embryo transfer cycles, finding that the mean hCG level was 24.8 mIU/mL, with clinical pregnancy and live birth rates of 29.6% and 23.4%, respectively.
- Key findings indicate maternal age and hCG levels significantly correlate with pregnancy outcomes, while low hCG levels may be linked to certain pregnancy complications but do not influence delivery outcomes.
Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the intrauterine microbiota in Japanese women to understand its connection to fertility, focusing on the impact of age and childbirth history on bacterial abundance.
- Researchers analyzed 147 patients' clinical backgrounds and noted differences in microbiota during the follicular and luteal phases of the menstrual cycle, finding variations attributed to age and past pregnancies.
- The findings suggest that women over 36 with previous childbirth may have lower rates of specific beneficial bacteria, indicating a potential need for microbiota testing in fertility treatments for these individuals.
Advances in prenatal molecular testing have made it possible to diagnose most genetic disorders early in gestation. In utero mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy can be a powerful tool to cure the incurable. With this in mind, this method could ameliorate potential physical and functional damage.
