Objective: To report the detection of pyometra after ovum retrieval for IVF with the routine use of ultrasound-guided embryo transfer.
Design: Case report.
Setting: Tertiary fertility center.
Patients: A 29-year-old woman who developed pyometra after ovum retrieval for IVF detected at the time of ultrasound-guided embryo transfer.
Intervention(s): Cancellation of the embryo transfer, cryopreservation of the embryos, treatment of the pyometra, and a successful frozen-embryo transfer.
Main Outcome Measure(s): Normal uterine cavity after treatment and a delivered twin pregnancy.
Result(s): A successful delivered twin pregnancy.
Conclusion(s): Routine use of ultrasound-guided embryo transfer resulted in the rescue of the patient's embryos for cryopreservation, with a resulting ongoing pregnancy.

This study aims to evaluate differences in gut microbiota structures between infertile women undergoing frozen embryo transfer (FET) with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and healthy controls (HCs), and to identify potential markers. We comprehensively enrolled 193 infertile women undergoing FET (discovery cohort: 38 HCs and 31 GDM; validation cohort: 85 HCs and 39 GDM). Gut microbial profiles of the discovery cohort were investigated during the pre-pregnancy (Pre), first trimester (T1), and second trimester (T2).

Objective: To assess the feasibility of first polar body transfer (PB1T) combined with preimplantation mitochondrial genetic testing for blocking the transmission of a pathogenic mitochondrial DNA 8993T>G mutation.
Methods: A Chinese family affected with Leigh syndrome which had attended the Reproductive Medicine Centre of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University in September 2021 was selected as the study subject. Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation was carried out for the proband after completing the detection of the mitochondrial DNA 8993T>G mutation load among the pedigree members.
Critical appraisal and narrative review of the literature in IVF/ICSI patients with adenomyosis and endometriosis.

Endometriosis and adenomyosis are prevalent causes of infertility, often coexisting in a significant proportion of patients. Although endometriosis typically does not negatively impact assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes, the presence of coexisting adenomyosis, mainly non-severe external forms, may slightly influence IVF/ICSI success rates. However, this impact is often minimal and may result in insignificant changes in statistical analyses.

Infertility affects one-in-six couples, often necessitating in vitro fertilization treatment (IVF). IVF generates complex data, which can challenge the utilization of the full richness of data during decision-making, leading to reliance on simple 'rules-of-thumb'. Machine learning techniques are well-suited to analyzing complex data to provide data-driven recommendations to improve decision-making.
