The autoradiographic labelling of different cell types in chorionic villi and decidual tissue was investigated after [3H]-thymidine incorporation in vitro. Although the extent of labelling was found to be lower in decidual than in villus tissue the possibility that direct chromosome preparations may contain maternal metaphases should be considered. The need for careful selection of villi for direct cytogenetic analysis was stressed.

CENP-E haploinsufficiency causes chromosome misalignment and spindle assembly checkpoint activation in the spermatogonia.

Department of Cell Biology and Genetics, The School of Basic Medical Sciences, Fujian Medical University, Fuzhou, Fujian, China.
Background: The establishment of kinetochore-microtubule attachment is essential for error-free chromosome alignment and segregation during cell division. Defects in chromosome alignment result in chromosome instability, birth defects, and infertility. Kinesin-7 CENP-E mediates kinetochore-microtubule capture, chromosome alignment, and spindle assembly checkpoint in somatic cells, however, mechanisms of CENP-E in germ cells remain poorly understood.

Reproductive Medicine Center, Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Healthcare Hospital Changsha 410008, Hunan, China.
Objective: To compare the safety and effectiveness between long-term GnRH agonist plus HCG (dual trigger) and HCG trigger alone in high ovarian responders.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on clinical data from 314 cases of high ovarian response who underwent in-vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) treatment at Hunan Provincial Maternal and Child Healthcare Hospital from July 2018 to January 2023. Participants were divided into two groups based on their triggering regimen: the Combined treatment group (GnRH agonist + HCG) and the HCG group (HCG alone).
Culture media with antioxidants improved preimplantation embryo development and clinical outcomes of patients of advanced age.

Kuramoto Women's Clinic, Hakata-Ku, Fukuoka City, Japan.
Research Question: What are the clinical effects of using culture media supplemented with antioxidants (AOX) throughout the IVF process?
Design: Prospective randomized single-centre study. Cumulus-oocyte complexes and semen samples collected from 127 treatment cycles were divided evenly between the study arm (culture media with AOX) and the control arm (culture media without AOX). The primary endpoint was the good-quality blastocyst (GQB) rate on day 5-6 per metaphase II (MII) oocyte.
Value of PGT-A when only one or two blastocysts are obtained: propensity-score matching and cost-effectiveness study.

Objective: To compare the effectiveness and cost of in-vitro fertilization (IVF) with or without preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) when only one or two blastocysts are obtained.
Methods: A dataset was gathered from 1829 patients including 368 non-PGT-A and 1461 PGT-A cycles with one or two blastocysts obtained, between April 2013 and July 2022. Patients were matched 1:1 by propensity-score matching for maternal age, number of metaphase-II oocytes inseminated and number of blastocysts obtained, achieving a database of 242 patients per group.

Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to explore how sperm quality (based on WHO-2021 criteria) and paternal factors like BMI and age relate to outcomes in ICSI cycles with PGT-A, focusing on clinical and embryological results.
- Conducted at a private IVF clinic, the research included data from 3101 couples over several years, employing techniques like trophectoderm biopsies and chromosome testing to evaluate the success of fertilization and embryo development.
- Results showed that maternal age significantly affected embryo quality, while lower sperm motility and specific conditions like obstructive and non-obstructive azoospermia were linked to poorer outcomes, including live birth rates.
