Objective: Controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) and embryo culture may affect the development and maturation of oocytes obtained by assisted reproduction technologies (ART). This study used the concept of available oocytes rate (AOR) to evaluate the effect of COS and to identify factors that influence oocyte development and clinical pregnancy (CP).
Methods: Medical data of 7933 patients who underwent oocyte retrieval and ART treatments was retrospectively reviewed at Fujian Provincial Maternity and Children's Hospital from January 2013 to December 2019. Baseline characteristics of patients, concentrations of hormones, as well as endometrial thickness, number of aspirated follicles, retrieved and available oocytes, and CP rates, were analyzed.
Results: Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that basal estradiol (E2) (OR=0.98, p=0.04), endometrial thickness on human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG)-day (OR=1.25, p<0.01), number of follicles aspirated (OR=1.58, p<0.01), oocytes retrieved (OR=0.80, p=0.04), available oocytes (OR=0.48, p=0.04) and AOR (OR=1.18, p<0.01) contributed to CP. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for the CP rates showed a possible cutoff for the AOR (area under the curve (AUC)=0.788, cut off=34.13%). All 103 cycles with an AOR less than 34% were then selected as Group-A, and 103 cycles were selected as Group-C by 1:1 case-control matching. The human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) dose was significantly different between Group-A and Group-C (1064.00±1042.01 U vs. 675.00±691.67 U, respectively, p=0.006). The duration of HMG usage was 7.88±4.73 days in Group-A and 5.79±3.59 days in Group-C (p=0.014).
Conclusions: The AOR is an important indicator of oocyte function and is correlated with clinical pregnancy outcomes of fresh cycles. The AOR could objectively predict HMG as a clinically related factor that affected the number and maturation of oocytes for insemination.

Purpose: This study is to evaluate duration of oocyte cryostorage and association with thaw survival, fertilization, blastulation, ploidy rates, and pregnancy outcomes in patients seeking fertility preservation.
Methods: Retrospective cohort study to evaluate clinical outcomes in patients who underwent fertility preservation from 2011 to 2023 via oocyte vitrification for non-oncologic indications. Primary outcome was thaw survival rate.
Comparative analysis of long versus short co-incubation of gametes on post-insemination outcomes and embryo morphokinetics.

Research Question: Does a short co-incubation of gametes in conventional IVF affect post-insemination outcomes and embryo morphokinetics?
Design: Sibling oocyte randomized pilot study conducted between December 2020 and March 2023. Eligible couples (n = 55) were women aged 18-43 years with BMI 35 km/m or lower and male normal semen parameters. Cumulus oocyte complexes (COC) (six to 12) were randomized in a 1:1:2 proportion in long (16-18 h) or short (2 h) co-incubation IVF exposure and ICSI, respectively.
The Effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment on the Cumulative Live Birth Rate of Patients with Poor Ovarian Response to the Patient-Oriented Strategies Encompassing Individualized Oocyte Number Criteria.

Objective: This study analyzed the role of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatment on the cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) in women with poor ovarian response to the patient-oriented strategies encompassing individualized oocyte number (POSEIDON) criteria.
Methods: This cohort study selected 3347 patients with low ovarian response and divided them into four subgroups according to the POSEIDON criteria: Group 1 (n=947), Group 2 (n=778), Group 3 (n=164), and Group 4 (n=1458). Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the role of TCM treatment on the CLBR of patients with poor ovarian response to POSEIDON criteria.

Objective: To build a prediction nomogram for early prediction of live birth probabilities according to number of oocytes retrieved in women ≤ 35 years of age.
Methods: A prediction model was built including 9265 infertile women ≤ 35 years of age accepting their first ovum pick-up cycle from January 2018 to December 2022. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression was performed to identify independent predictors and establish a nomogram to predict reproductive outcomes.

Permanent preservation of genetic resources may be indispensable for the future of humanity. This requires liquid nitrogen, as is the case for preserving animal sperm. However, this technique is expensive and poses a risk of irrecoverable sample loss on non-replenishment of liquid nitrogen in case of natural disasters.
