The effect of embryo migration after embryo transfer with fresh oocyte donation cycles on pregnancy outcomes.

Embryo migration is defined as the movement of embryos to implant at the exact site in the endometrial cavity during assisted reproductive technology (ART). We aimed to evaluate the impact of embryo migration on clinical pregnancy (CPR) and live birth rates (LBR) in fresh oocyte donation (OD) cycles. A total of 611 fresh OD cycles was recruited in this prospective cohort study.

Comparison of pregnancy outcomes of cervical mucus washing with physiologic saline solution or G-Rinse medium solution, in elective single-embryo transfers.

Aim: To compare the pregnancy outcomes between physiologic saline and G-Rinse medium solution for cervical mucus washing, in fresh elective single-embryo transfers (ET) in women under the age of 37.

Material And Methods: This was a retrospective data analysis performed in a single in vitro fertilization (IVF) center between February 2018 and November 2021. Women younger than 37 years who underwent single elective ET were included and all women had anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) levels ≥ 1.

Comparison of pregnancy outcomes of 7515 same donor oocyte cycle fresh and cryopreserved-thawed oocytes in 609 donor oocyte recipient cycles: A single institution analysis.

Objective: Oocyte donation (OD) cycles have been used extensively over the last decades due to high success regarding live birth rate (LBR). We evaluated the reproductive outcomes of fresh and vitrified sibling oocytes in terms of fertilization rates, blast ratio, clinical pregnancy rates, and LBR.

Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted at a tertiary in vitro fertilization (IVF) center.

Impact of endometrial thickness change in response to progesterone on live birth rates embryo transfers with fresh oocyte donation cycles.

Endometrial thickness (ENT) measurements are important to evaluate endometrial receptivity. The effect of endometrial thickness on pregnancy outcomes has been discussed for many years with conflicting results. The aim of our study was to find out the effect of endometrial thickness (ENT) change in response to progesterone on pregnancy outcomes in embryo transfer (ET) of fresh oocyte donation (OD) recipients.

Diagnostic value of shear wave velocity in polycystic ovarian syndrome.

In polycystic ovarian syndrome, the ovaries become stiffer due to chronic anovulation. We aimed to compare tissue elasticity in terms of shear wave velocities measured using acoustic radiation force impulse imaging technique between the ovaries of polycystic ovarian syndrome women and non-polycystic ovarian syndrome women. The study was designed as a retrospective data analysis of women who underwent transvaginal ultrasound and acoustic radiation force impulse imaging in a university hospital between July 2014 and March 2015, for various reasons.

Detection of HPV positivity by immunohistochemistry in colposcopic cervical biopsies with a cytological diagnosis of ASCUS.

Objective: Many epidemiological studies have shown that human papillomavirus related infections play a major role in cervical preinvasive and invasive lesions. ASCUS (atypical cells of undetermined significance) observed in about 4-5% of all cervical cytology specimens. We searched for the presence of HPV with immunohistochemical methods in the biopsy material of patients diagnosed with ASCUS using cytology.

Is the loop electrosurgical excision procedure necessary for minor cervical cytological abnormalities?

Background: To investigate the indications of loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) and its overtreatment rates for the see and treat and three step strategies in cases of atypical squamous cells of undetermined cytology (ASC-US) and low grade intraepithelial neoplasia (LGSIL) cytology.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed colposcopy directed biopsy (CDB) and LEEP results of 176 paients with ASC-US or LGSIL cytologies who underwent colposcopic examination.

Results: Initial cytologies were ASCUS in 120 women and LGSIL in 56.

[Efficacy of gonadal shielding in pediatric pelvis X-rays].

Objectives: In this study, we evaluated the efficacy of using gonadal shielding in pediatric patients.

Patients And Methods: Between October 2011 and February 2012, 1137 pelvic X-rays of 675 consecutive patients (323 boys, 352 girls; mean age 6.8 years; range 6 month to 17 years) in our hospital were evaluated in terms of gonadal shielding use by a team including an orthopedist, a gynecologist and a pediatrician.
