Hysteroscopic Endometrial Fundal Incision in Oocyte Recipients before Embryo Transfer May Improve Reproductive Outcomes: A Prospective Study.

Background: Induced endometrial injury is a technique described that have positive impact on implantation. The aim of this study was to investigate whether hysteroscopic endometrial fundal incision (EFI) in oocyte recipients before embryo transfer increases pregnancy and live birth rates or not.

Materials And Methods: A prospective study was conducted between 2014 and 2019 at an fertilization (IVF) unit in Greece.

Diagnostic hysteroscopy with endometrial fundal incision may improve reproductive outcomes in oocyte recipients after implantation failure.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate whether hysteroscopy plus endometrial fundal incision (EFI) with endoscopic scissors can improve reproductive outcomes in oocyte recipients who have failed in their first egg donation cycle.

Methods: This was a prospective study (2014-2022) conducted in Assisting Nature Centre Reproduction and Genetics, Thessaloniki Greece, IVF Unit. The study population consisted of oocyte recipients with implantation failure in their first embryo transfer (ET) with donor eggs.

Agonist triggering in oocyte donation programs-Mini review.

Oocyte donation programs involve young and healthy women undergoing heavy ovarian stimulation protocols in order to yield good-quality oocytes for their respective recipient couples. These stimulation cycles were for many years beset by a serious and potentially lethal complication known as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). The use of the short antagonist protocol not only is patient-friendly but also has halved the need for hospitalization due to OHSS sequelae.

In Freeze-All Strategy, Cumulative Live Birth Rate (CLBR) Is Increasing According to the Number of Blastocysts Formed in Women <40 Undergoing Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI).

Elective freezing of all embryos, followed by frozen-thawed ET cycles emerged to prevent risk of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome and to allow endometrium recovery after Controlled Ovarian Stimulation, leading to better IVF outcomes. Blastocyst Freeze-all policy can minimize the number of abnormal embryos and consequently failed ETs, but its efficacy in terms of cumulative rates has not been studied yet. A prospective cohort observational study was carried out in Assisting Nature, Center of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics, in Thessaloniki, Greece from January 2014 until December 2017.

The chromosomes and the mitogenome of Ceratitis fasciventris (Diptera: Tephritidae): two genetic approaches towards the Ceratitis FAR species complex resolution.

Ceratitis fasciventris is a serious agricultural pest of the Tephritidae family that belongs to the African Ceratitis FAR species complex. Species limits within the FAR complex are obscure and multidisciplinary approaches have attempted to resolve phylogenetic relationships among its members. These studies support the existence of at least three additional species in the complex, C.

Evaluation of the genotoxic and antigenotoxic effects of Chios mastic water by the in vitro micronucleus test on human lymphocytes and the in vivo wing somatic test on Drosophila.

Chios mastic gum, a plant-derived product obtained by the Mediterranean bush Pistacia lentiscus (L.) var. chia (Duham), has generated considerable interest because of its antimicrobial, anticancer, antioxidant and other beneficial properties.
