Objective: To study the impact of a CT serology on intrauterine insemination (IUI) cumulative live-birth rate (cLBR) in women with documented bilateral tubal patency.
Design: Cohort study SUBJECTS: Infertile women with documented bilateral tubal patency and medical indication of IUI matched on the following criteria: woman's age, number of cycles completed and number of motile sperm inseminated (NMSI).
Exposure: This retrospective, observational and monocentric cohort study compared women with positive CT serology matched 1:1 to control women with negative CT serology.
Main Outcome Measures: Cumulative LBR, rates of clinical pregnancy, spontaneous abortion, biochemical pregnancy.
Results: A total of 71 women in the CT positive group were matched to 71 women in the negative CT group, leading to compare 136 cycles per group. No statistically significant difference was observed between groups regarding the demographic and medical characteristics of couples. Cumulative LBR per woman was similar in both groups with 32.4% (n = 23) in the negative serology group Vs 25.4% (n = 18) in the positive CT group (NS). The rates of clinical pregnancy, spontaneous abortion, biochemical pregnancy were comparable between the two groups.
Conclusion: In a population of infertile women with patent tubes, our study suggests that the serological status for CT has no impact on the IIU cLBR.

Objective: To study the implementation value of abdominal B-ultrasound combined with cervical cerclage in the prevention and treatment of recurrent late abortion.
Methods: From October 2020 to December 2023, 196 pregnant patients who had a history of late abortions at our institution were chosen. They were divided into groups based on the treatments used.

Study Question: Is there a difference in the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) after fresh testicular sperm aspiration (TESA) compared with the use of either pre-frozen sperm or oocyte freezing for couples experiencing ejaculation failure on the day of oocyte retrieval?
Summary Answer: After adjusting for confounding factors, the use of pre-frozen sperm or the freezing and thawing of oocytes appeared to be as effective as TESA in achieving CLBRs for couples experiencing temporary ejaculation failure.
What Is Known Already: Male patients may be concerned about experiencing temporary ejaculation failure on the day of their partner's oocyte retrieval, in which case they may choose surgical sperm retrieval, oocyte freezing on the day, or have their sperm frozen in advance. However, the clinical efficacy of these three options has not yet been evaluated.
Oocyte yield and live birth rate after follitropin delta dosing and fresh embryo transfer: an individual patient data meta-analysis.

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.

Purpose: Selection of optimal embryo transfer strategies for IVF patients treated with antagonist protocols.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted to assess whether whole embryo culture to the blastocyst stage could enhance the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR). The study included data from the first oocyte retrieval cycle of 4131 patients who underwent IVF treatment between January 2018 and June 2022.

Purpose: Infertility is affecting more and more couples of appropriate age. Hysteroscopy (HSC) has certain effects on the uncompleted pregnancy and live birth caused by uterine microenvironment. Based on the evidence, this paper systematically evaluates the effectiveness and safety of HSC intervention on the fertility outcome of female infertility.
