Cost-Effectiveness and Clinical Outcomes of Controlled Ovarian Stimulation With Follitropin Delta and Follitropin Alfa: A Retrospective Study.
Cureus
December 2024
Reproductive Medicine, Torch Clinic, Tokyo, JPN.
Aim: This study compared the cost-effectiveness of two recombinant follicle-stimulating hormones (rFSH) formulations, Follitropin Delta and Follitropin Alfa, in controlled ovarian stimulation using cumulative live birth rates as an efficacy indicator.
Methodology: This retrospective study was conducted across five clinics in Japan from April 2022 to December 2023, involving 446 first assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles (200 with Follitropin Delta and 246 with Follitropin Alfa) were treated with rFSH monotherapy using either Follitropin Delta or Follitropin Alfa. We compared clinical outcomes such as cumulative pregnancy and live birth rates and analyzed cost-effectiveness using the cumulative live birth rates as the efficacy indicator and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER).

Nursing Department, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, College of Medicine, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, People's Republic of China.
Objective: The psychological experiences will be analyzed to understand the needs and burdens of women on the day of oocyte retrieval when the thawed testicular sperm of their husbands is used for in vitro fertilization, in order to provide a basis for the subsequent formulation of relevant nursing measures.
Methods: This study utilized a descriptive phenomenological research approach. A cohort of 13 women undergoing oocyte retrieval on the day when thawed testicular sperm from their husbands is used for in vitro fertilization at the Reproductive Medicine Center of Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, between August and October 2024, were chosen as participants for this study.

Department of Reproductive Medicine, Women's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing Women and Children's Healthcare Hospital, Nanjing, China.
Objectives: The increasing prevalence of obesity underscores the need to explore its impact on assisted reproductive technology (ART) outcomes. This study aims to evaluate the association between visceral fat area (VFA), measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), and pregnancy outcomes following frozen embryo transfer (FET).
Methods: In this retrospective clinical study, the data of 1,510 patients who underwent FET between April 2022 and April 2023 were analyzed.
Improving reproductive outcomes in frozen embryo transfer over fresh embryo transfer in women with endometrioma: A historical cohort study.

Background: Endometrioma, a common manifestation of endometriosis, often indicates the severity of the disease. In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (ET) are key therapeutic strategies for infertility associated with endometriosis. However, the optimal type of ET (frozen or fresh) and its impact on pregnancy success rates remain debated, with limited studies available.

Background: To introduce minimally invasive methods for the successful treatment of tubo-ovarian abscesses (TOAs), an antibiotic regimen was considered the first line of treatment. However, in some cases, this approach fails, and another intervention (laparotomy or minimally guidance drainage) is required.
Case Presentations: 3 women with a history of long-time infertility, all of them were candidates for in vitro fertilization referred to the obstetrics and gynecology department with similar manifestations.
