Study Question: Is the probability of pregnancy different between women using biosimilars versus the originator of follitropin alfa for ovarian stimulation in ART?
Summary Answer: Meta-analysis of eight randomized clinical trials (RCTs) suggests that live birth, clinical, and ongoing pregnancy rates are significantly lower with biosimilars of follitropin alfa compared to the originator.
What Is Known Already: All biosimilars of follitropin alfa have received regulatory approval by demonstrating non-inferiority in the number of retrieved oocytes compared to the originator. Nevertheless, the most clinically relevant outcome in ART for both clinicians and patients is live birth.

Homologous recombination is a key evolutionary force that varies considerably across bacterial species. However, how the landscape of homologous recombination varies across genes and within individual genomes has only been studied in a few species. Here, we used Approximate Bayesian Computation to estimate the recombination rate along the genomes of 145 bacterial species.

While previous literature has described the frequency of HT use for the relief of menopausal symptoms in both the general and veteran female populations, there is currently no literature describing this frequency within the female active duty population. This study aims to address this gap in knowledge by conducting a retrospective cross-sectional study of HT receipt in active duty service women (ADSW) ages 45 to 64 during fiscal years (FYs) 2018 to 2022.

Introduction: Situs inversus is a rare congenital condition where the organs in the chest and abdomen are reversed, thus complicating surgeries such as lung transplantation. Kartagener syndrome (KS), associated with situs inversus, includes chronic sinusitis and bronchiectasis, which can progress to end-stage lung disease requiring transplantation. This review discusses the unique surgical considerations, technical challenges, and outcomes of lung transplantation in patients with situs inversus, particularly KS.
