Introduction: This study investigated the impact of the carrier on transferable blastocyst rate and live birth outcomes in couples with structural chromosomal abnormalities.

Methods: Couples were grouped into reciprocal translocation, Robertsonian translocation, or inversions groups, and clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Preimplantation genetic testing for chromosomal structural rearrangements (PGT-SR) was conducted, and pregnancy outcomes were compared.

Results: Embryo euploidy rates between male and female carriers differed nonsignificantly in the reciprocal translocation and inversion groups but significantly among the three groups. In the Robertsonian translocation group, male carriers had a higher embryo euploidy rate than that of female carriers. Sperm density of male carriers with reciprocal and Robertsonian translocation was significantly lower than that of the female carrier in the same group, whereas the difference was non-significant in the inversion group. The clinical outcomes of embryo transfer post-PGT were similar regardless of the sex of carriers with structural chromosomal abnormalities. Female carriers with Robertsonian translocations displayed a higher risk of producing embryos with chromosomal abnormalities than male carriers. Pregnancy, live birth, and cumulative live birth rates following a PGT-SR cycle were similar, irrespective of chromosomal structural rearrangement type, and carrier sex.

Conclusion: Our findings offer valuable information for genetic counseling.

Study Question: Are live birth rates (LBRs) per woman following flexible progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (fPPOS) treatment non-inferior to LBRs per woman following the conventional GnRH-antagonist protocol in expected suboptimal responders undergoing freeze-all cycles in assisted reproduction treatment?

Summary Answer: In women expected to have a suboptimal response, the 12-month likelihood of live birth with the fPPOS treatment did not achieve the non-inferiority criteria when compared to the standard GnRH antagonist protocol for IVF/ICSI treatment with a freeze-all strategy.

What Is Known Already: The standard PPOS protocol is effective for ovarian stimulation, where medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) is conventionally administered in the early follicular phase for ovulatory suppression. Recent retrospective cohort studies on donor cycles have shown the potential to prevent premature ovulation and maintain oocyte yields by delaying the administration of MPA until the midcycle (referred to as fPPOS), similar to GnRH antagonist injections.

Objective: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common medical complication of pregnancy that leads to adverse outcomes for both infants and pregnant people. Early detection and treatment can mitigate these negative outcomes. The COVID-19 pandemic strained healthcare and laboratory services, including GDM screening programs.

Objective: The association between vitamin D deficiency and ovarian reserve-specific outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART) remains uncertain. This study aimed to investigate the role of ovarian reserve in the association between basal serum vitamin D levels and ART outcomes in patients undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH).

Methods: A total of 1,333 infertile women undergoing COH cycles were retrospectively analyzed.

Background: In a global effort to assess expert perspectives on the use of recombinant gonadotropins, recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-hLH) and recombinant human follicle-stimulating hormone (r-hFSH), a consensus meeting was held in Dubai. The key aim was to address three critical questions: What are the factors that influence follicle response to gonadotropins? Which categories of patients are most likely to benefit from LH supplementation? And what are the optimal management strategies for these patients?

Methods: A panel of thirty-six experts reviewed and refined the initial statements and references proposed by the Scientific Coordinator. Consensus was defined as agreement or disagreement by more than two-thirds (66%) of the panel members for each statement.
