Published: November 2004

Background: Thromboembolism is a rare but extremely serious complication of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Case Report: We report a case of left internal jugular vein thrombosis, presenting as a late complication of moderate ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Conclusion: Prevention of vascular thrombosis should be a part of the treatment in the setting of assisted reproductive procedures complicated with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

Research Question: What number of retrieved oocytes is associated with the optimum chance of achieving a live birth for women undergoing ovarian stimulation with individualized follitropin delta?

Design: An individual patient data meta-analysis was performed on 1772 patients from five randomized controlled trials using individualized follitropin delta for ovarian stimulation with fixed daily dosing based on serum anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level and body weight. Live birth rate (LBR) and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) were evaluated in relation to the number of oocytes retrieved. Predicted LBR was obtained using a logistic regression analysis with fractional polynomials.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the correlation of ovarian sensitivity index (OSI) and clinical parameters in IVF treatments.

Methods: IVF data files between January 2011 and December 2020 in a single unit were included. The primary outcome measure was the correlation between the OSI and clinical pregnancy and live birth rates.

Background: The gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist (GnRH-ant) protocol is associated with few oocytes retrieved, few mature oocytes and poor endometrial receptivity. Omission of GnRH-ants on trigger day seems unlikely to induce preovulation and may improve outcomes in the GnRH-ant protocol. This study aimed to systematically evaluate the effects of GnRH-ant cessation on trigger day on in vitro fertilisation outcomes following the GnRH-ant protocol.

Objective: The association between vitamin D deficiency and ovarian reserve-specific outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART) remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the role of ovarian reserve in the association between basal serum vitamin D levels and ART outcomes in patients undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH).

Methods: A total of 1,333 infertile women undergoing COH cycles were retrospectively analyzed.

Study Question: Is the probability of pregnancy different between women using biosimilars versus the originator of follitropin alfa for ovarian stimulation in ART?

Summary Answer: Meta-analysis of eight randomized clinical trials (RCTs) suggests that live birth, clinical, and ongoing pregnancy rates are significantly lower with biosimilars of follitropin alfa compared to the originator.

What Is Known Already: All biosimilars of follitropin alfa have received regulatory approval by demonstrating non-inferiority in the number of retrieved oocytes compared to the originator. Nevertheless, the most clinically relevant outcome in ART for both clinicians and patients is live birth.
