Background: Since the implementation of China's comprehensive two-child policy, the prevalence of long interpregnancy intervals (IPI) and advanced maternal age has increased. However, previous studies in China have mostly focused on the relationship between short IPIs and adverse perinatal outcomes, while neglecting maternal age as a potential confounder.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of 23,899 pregnant women who delivered between January 1, 2017 and December 31, 2019 at Chengdu Women's and Children's Central Hospital and West China Second Hospital of Sichuan University.

Background: Up to now, a number of studies have explored the influence of blastocyst biopsy on maternal and neonatal outcomes, and the results have been somewhat inconsistent. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate whether blastocyst biopsy is associated with an elevated risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) and other adverse perinatal outcomes during frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles in singleton live births resulting from intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in women aged ≤ 35 years.
Methods: A total of 1,008 women were involved in this study from January 2020 to June 2022, who underwent ICSI cycles and received single FET, leading to the birth of a live singleton newborn.
