Objectives.?To examine and compare the effect of the two commercially available menotropins (highly purified-human menopausal gonadotropin (HP-hMG) and the traditional human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG)) on ovarian stimulation characteristics and in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) cycle outcome. Study Design.?We studied 36 patients undergoing at least two controlled ovarian hyperstimulation cycles for IVF, with the same GnRH-analogue protocols, where one included HP-hMG and the other included hMG. Ovarian stimulation characteristics and outcome were compared between the two groups. Results.?Patients in the HP-hMG group achieved significantly higher implantation (20.0% vs. 8.1%, p?<?0.03; respectively) and pregnancy rates (47.2% vs. 19.4%, p?<?0.009; respectively) compared to the hMG group. Although no in-between group difference was observed in the number of top-quality embryos per patient, the proportion of the total number of top-quality embryos per total number of generated embryos was significantly higher in the HP-hMG group (88/196 vs. 72/204, p?<?0.049; respectively) as compared to the hMG group. Conclusions.?Patients undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation for IVF that includes HP-hMG preparations produce significantly higher implantation and pregnancy rates, as compared to the traditional hMG. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effectiveness of hMG and recombinant FSH after down-regulation for ovulation stimulation in assisted reproductive cycles. DESIGN: Meta-analysis. SETTING: Infertility centers providing assisted reproductive techniques. PATIENT(S): Two thousand thirty women undergoing IVF or ICSI. INTERVENTIONS: Ovarian hyperstimulation with hMG or recombinant FSH after down-regulation. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Clinical pregnancy rate, ongoing pregnancy/live birth rate, gonadotropin dose used, oocytes retrieved, implantation rate, miscarriage rate, and multiple pregnancy rate. RESULT(S): Six randomized controlled trials were included. In all trials, the group of women treated with hMG had higher pregnancy rates. Pooling the five trials that used a long GnRH agonist protocol resulted in a higher clinical pregnancy rate for hMG compared with recombinant FSH (relative risk, 1.22 [95% CI, 1.03 to 1.44]). However, there was no evidence of a difference in rates of ongoing pregnancy or live birth per woman between hMG recipients and recombinant FSH recipients (relative risk, 1.20 [95% CI, 0.99 to 1.45]). No differences were found in gonadotropin dose used, oocytes retrieved, miscarriage rate, or multiple pregnancy rate. CONCLUSION(S): Use of hMG resulted in higher clinical pregnancy rates than did use of recombinant FSH in IVF/ICSI cycles after GnRH agonist down-regulation in a long protocol. 相似文献

AbstractClinical efficacy of human-derived follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) versus recombinant FSH (rFSH) in IVF-ICSI cycles has long been compared, but no clear evidence of the superiority of a preparation over the other has been found. Human gonadotropins have been often grouped together, but a different glycosylation may be present in each preparation, therefore influencing the specific bioactivity. To exclude confounding factors, a meta-analysis and a cost-effectiveness analysis were designed to compare effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a specific highly purified human FSH (HP-hFSH) (Fostimon®) versus rFSH (Gonal-F®) in IVF/ICSI cycles. Research methodology filters were applied in MEDLINE, Current Contents and Web of Science from 1980 to February 2012. Eight randomized trials met selection criteria. The meta-analysis showed no significant differences between rFSH and HP-hFSH treatment in live-birth rate (odds ratio [OR] 0.84, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.63–1.11), clinical pregnancy rate (OR 0.85, 95% CI 0.68–1.07), number of oocytes retrieved, number of mature oocytes and days of stimulation. The cost-effectiveness ratio was €7174 in the rFSH group and €2056 in the HP-hFSH group. HP-hFSH is as effective as rFSH in ovarian stimulation for IVF-ICSI cycles, but the human preparation is more cost-effective. 相似文献

The renewed interest in luteinizing hormone (LH), together with limited and decreasing health resources, make essential the comparison of high-cost, recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) preparations (devoid of LH) and human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) in terms of clinical efficacy. All published, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing rFSH versus hMG under different protocols of stimulation were examined. Eight true RCTs were included in this meta-analysis, recruiting 2031 participants. Data for ongoing pregnancy/live birth rate, clinical pregnancy rate, miscarriage rate, multiple pregnancy rate and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) were extracted, and odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with the use of a fixed-effects model. Data for the meta-analysis were combined using RevMan software (using the Mantel–Haenszel method). Pooling the results of these RCTs showed no significant difference between rFSH and hMG regarding the different outcomes: ongoing pregnancy/live birth rate, OR 1.18 (95% CI 0.93–1.50); clinical pregnancy rate, OR 1.2 (95% CI 0.99–1.47), miscarriage rate, OR 1.2 (95% CI 0.70–2.16); multiple pregnancy rate, OR 1.35 (95% CI 0.96–1.90); incidence of moderate/severe OHSS, OR 1.79 (95% CI 0.74–4.33). However, there was significant reduction in the amount of gonadotropins in favor of hMG over rFSH. There was no significant heterogeneity of treatment effect across the trials. In conclusion, there is no clinically significant difference between hMG and rFSH in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles. Decision-makers should establish their choice of one drug over the other based on the most up-to-date evidence available. 相似文献

Purpose
: To conduct a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on assisted hatching.
Methods
: One hundred sixty-five studies were retrieved from the literature, but only 13 of them fitted our selection criteria. The meta-analysis was conducted using the RevMan software with the Peto-modified Mantel–Haenszel method.
Results
: Assisted hatching increases the pregnancy [OR (±95% CI) = 2.51 (1.91–3.29)], implantation [OR (±95% CI) = 2.38 (1.87–3.03)], and ongoing pregnancy rates [OR (±95% CI) = 2.65 (1.85–3.79)] significantly in poor prognosis patients undergoing IVF or ICSI. For patients with repeated IVF failures, the OR (±95% CI) were 2.84 (1.99–4.06) for pregnancy, 2.53 (1.85–3.47) for implantation, and 3.51 (2.12–5.82) for ongoing pregnancy rates, in favor of assisted hatching.
Conclusions
: Assisted hatching increases the pregnancy, implantation, and ongoing pregnancy rates significantly in patients with a poor prognosis undergoing IVF or ICSI, particularly those with repeated failures. 相似文献

Objective: To compare highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin (HP-hMG) with recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) on ovarian response and pregnancy outcome in downregulated women of advanced reproductive age. Design: A prospective, randomized and controlled study of 127 consecutive normogonadotropic infertile women ≥35 years old undergoing their first in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles received ovarian stimulation with HP-hMG ( n?=?63) or with rFSH ( n?=?64) in a long gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist protocol. Results: More leading (≥18 mm) follicles and oocytes were obtained in rFSH group ( p?=?0.008 and p < 0.001, respectively). The proportion of top-quality embryo from oocyte retrieval and live birth rate per started cycle trended towards improvement with HP-hMG (OR 1.3, 95% CI 0.9–1.8; OR 1.9, 95% CI 0.9–3.9; respectively), although they were not significant difference between two groups. At end of stimulation, higher serum progesterone level was found in rFSH group ( p < 0.001). Conclusion: Following downregulated women of advanced reproductive age, superiority of HP-hMG over rFSH in live birth rate could not be concluded from this study, but noninferiority was established. Pharmacodynamic differences in follicular development, oocyte/embryo quality and endocrine response exist between HP-hMG and rFSH, which may be relevant to treatment outcome. 相似文献

Objective.?This study was performed to evaluate the association between adding luteinizing hormone (LH) activity and the incidence of tripronuclear (3PN) zygotes occurrence. Methods.?The incidence of 3PN and cycle outcomes was compared between recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH)-only and rFSH with exogenous LH activity groups. These comparisons were performed in gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRHa, n?=?196) and gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist (GnRHant, n?=?182) subgroups, and in in?vitro fertilisation (IVF) ( n?=?243) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) ( n?=?135) cycles, respectively. Results.?The percentage of 3PN was significantly lower in LH activity-added group compared to rFSH-only group (3.6% vs. 5.6%, p?=?0.029). Both in GnRHa and GnRHant subgroups, this incidence tended to be lower in LH-supplemented group, although these differences did not reach statistical significance. In IVF cycles, LH activity-added group showed a lower 3PN rate versus rFSH-only group (4.0% vs. 6.7%, p?=?0.018). No difference of 3PN rate was found in ICSI cycles. Conclusions.?Supplementation of exogenous LH activity to ovarian stimulation may be associated with lower prevalence of 3PN zygotes in IVF cycles, but not in ICSI cycles. 相似文献

This review and meta-analysis aim to assess the effect of prolonged progesterone support on pregnancy outcomes in women undergoing fresh embryo transfer after IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Two independent authors searched Embase, MEDLINE and grey literature from inception to January 2019 for randomized controlled trials (RCT) of prolonged progesterone support versus early cessation. Risk of bias was assessed. Outcome measures were live birth, miscarriage and ongoing pregnancy rate. The study was registered with PROSPERO (CRD42018088605). Seven trials involving 1627 participants were included: three reported live birth rate (672/830), seven the miscarriage rate (178/1627) and seven the ongoing pregnancy rate (1351/1627). Clinical outcomes were similar between early progesterone cessation versus progesterone continuation: live birth rate (risk ratio [RR] 0.94, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.88–1.00), miscarriage rate (RR 0.91, 95% CI 0.69–1.20) and ongoing pregnancy rate (RR 0.98, 95% CI 0.91–1.05). Ongoing pregnancy rates were similar when analyses were restricted to those with cessation of progesterone on the day of a positive human chorionic gonadotrophin (RR 0.93, 95% CI 0.83–1.06). This meta-analysis suggests that prolonged progesterone support may be unnecessary after fresh embryo transfer. Further larger RCT would be useful to corroborate and lead to standardized duration of progesterone luteal phase support across IVF/ICSI centres. 相似文献

Objective.?To investigate the effects of body mass index (BMI) on ovarian stimulation and the outcome of IVF or ICSI treatment in Asian population who have different characteristics of BMI from white people. Design.?In this retrospective study, the first fresh cycles of 1107 Chinese women were classified by BMI: underweight (BMI?<18.5?kg/m 2), normal weight (BMI: 18.5–23.9?kg/m 2) and overweight (BMI?≥?24?kg/m 2). Dose and days of ovarian simulation, cancelled cycles and number of oocytes collected, fertilisation and embryo utilisation rates and pregnancy outcome were compared among BMI groups. Results.?It showed that overweight women required more ampoules of gonadotrophin ( P?=?0.002) and had lower peak oestradiol concentration ( P?=?0.001), increased cycle cancellation due to insufficient follicle development ( P?=?0.018) and a higher miscarriage rate (10.5 vs. 5.4%, P?=?0.018, OR?=?2.006 (95% CI: 1.09–3.69, P?=?0.025)) compared with normal weight women. However, no differences were found in clinical pregnancy and live-birth rates. Underweight compared with normal weight women showed no differences in ovarian stimulation and IVF outcome although the clinical pregnancy rate was lower (31.1 vs. 37.3%). Conclusion.?At a lower cutoff point of BMI in Chinese women, overweight is associated with increased miscarriage risks and impaired response to ovarian stimulation after IVF and ICSI. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the cost of achieving pregnancy with different gonadotropin preparations. DESIGN: Cost-minimization analysis of a prospective randomized clinical trial. SETTING: Twenty-two centers in six countries. PATIENT(S): Women 18 to 36 years of age with infertility for more than 1 year who were undergoing IVF or ICSI. INTERVENTION(S): Highly purified hMG or recombinant FSH. RESULT(S): Mean cost of achieving an ongoing pregnancy.The mean cost per patient treatment cycle was estimated to be pound 2423 with highly purified hMG (95% CI, pound 2356 to pound 2495) and pound 2745 with recombinant FSH (95% CI, pound 2658 to pound 2830). The ongoing pregnancy rate was 22% with highly purified hMG and 19% with recombinant FSH. The cost per ongoing pregnancy was pound 10781 with highly purified hMG (95% CI, pound 9056 to pound 12919) and pound 14284 with recombinant FSH (95% CI, pound 11883 to pound 17891). CONCLUSION(S): Highly purified hMG and recombinant FSH are equally effective, but highly purified hMG is less expensive per cycle. Using highly purified hMG instead of recombinant FSH would translate into a 13% increase in the number of cycles that could be offered. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To investigate possible differences between using recombinant FSH (rFSH) and hMG for ovarian stimulation in IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles. DESIGN: Parallel group design. Prospective, randomized clinical study. SETTING: A tertiary care infertility clinic. PATIENT(S): A total of 578 patients of our IVF/ICSI routine were recruited. INTERVENTION(S): Treatment with hMG was used for 282 patients (282 cycles), whereas 296 patients (296 cycles) were treated with rFSH. The number of cycles leading to an embryo transfer were 248 and 259, respectively. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Primary: clinical pregnancy rate. Secondary: treatment days, total dose of gonadotropin administered, number of oocytes retrieved, number of mature oocytes, and embryo quality. RESULT(S):Of the cycles with embryo transfer, the pregnancy rates were 30.1% and 32.3% in the rFSH and the hMG groups, respectively. This difference is not statistically significant (P=0.798). Treatment with rFSH resulted in a significantly higher number of recovered oocytes compared with the hMG group but was also associated with a higher number of ampoules needed to reach the criterion for hCG administration. No significant differences were found with regard to the number of mature oocytes, the number of treatment days, and the embryo quality. CONCLUSION(S): In terms of the clinical pregnancy rate, no significant differences between the two stimulation regimens can be stated. 相似文献

Recent randomized trials, systematic reviews and cost-effectiveness analyses have demonstrated the relative efficacy, and in some cases superiority, of urinary gonadotrophins (uFSH, human menopausal gonadotrophin) compared with recombinant FSH (rFSH). However, the effectiveness of frozen-embryo transfers (FET) following ovarian stimulation with uFSH versus rFSH in the fresh cycle has not been well investigated. The objective of this study was to determine whether there are differences in clinical outcomes in women undergoing FET according to the type of gonadotrophin used during ovarian stimulation. Following a meticulous search, all published comparative studies of FET using ovarian stimulation were reviewed. Data on clinical outcomes were extracted and systematically presented. Using the agonist long protocol for down-regulation, five trials provided extractable data for live-birth and ongoing pregnancy rates following FET, as well as the cumulative live-birth, ongoing pregnancy and clinical pregnancy rates following fresh-embryo transfer and FET from the same cycle. There was no evidence of significant effect difference between the uses of uFSH versus rFSH regarding any of the outcomes. In conclusion there is insufficient evidence to determine whether the use of a certain type of gonadotrophin during ovarian stimulation affects the clinical outcomes in subsequent FET.Clinical efficiency in IVF procedures has been debated for years. Defining a unified goal, or endpoint, for IVF treatments has shown marked discrepancies among clinicians, regulatory bodies and organizations; with some regarding a clinical pregnancy, an ongoing pregnancy, a live-birth, or even a take-home baby as the primary outcome of IVF treatments. The objective of this systematic review was to determine the effectiveness of the use of urinary versus recombinant FSH on the results of frozen embryo transfers and the effect that this would have on the cumulative clinical results of IVF. This systematic review has shown that there is insufficient evidence to determine whether the use of a certain type of gonadotrophin during ovarian stimulation affects the clinical outcomes in subsequent frozen embryo transfers, such as live-birth rate, ongoing pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate. With respect to cumulative rates, it is noted that no significant differences in live birth rate, ongoing pregnancy rate, and clinical pregnancy rate following fresh and frozen transfer cycles. It is concluded that well-designed and powered studies are needed to determine possible effects of the use of a certain type of gonadotrophin during ovarian stimulation on the clinical outcomes in subsequent frozen thawed embryo transfers. 相似文献

A subtle rise in serum progesterone during the late follicular phase in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles is a frequent event that can decrease implantation and pregnancy rates in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) protocols that use a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the prevalence and effect of the subtle progesterone rise during COH with single-dose GnRH antagonist in combination with clomiphene citrate (CC) and human menopausal gonadotropins (hMG) in IVF or ICSI cycles. Ninety-five women undergoing COH with CC, hMG and a single 2.5 mg dose of the GnRH antagonist, cetrorelix, were enrolled in the study. Patients were grouped according to serum progesterone level on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration (P < 1.2 ng/ml or P ≥ 1.2 ng/ml). The incidence of a subtle progesterone rise was 54.7% (52/95). The group with P ≥ 1.2 ng/ml had significantly higher serum levels of luteinizing hormone ( p = 0.002) and estradiol ( p < 0.001) on the day of hCG injection than the group with P < 1.2 ng/ml, and more oocytes were retrieved ( p = 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in fertilization, clinical pregnancy or implantation rate between the two groups. In conclusion, a subtle progesterone rise during the late follicular phase is common but not associated with pregnancy outcome. 相似文献

AbstractIntroduction: Our aim was to state the correlation between placental index and pregnancy outcomes or in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) pregnancies. Materials and methods: We included in this retrospective study all singleton births in a third level clinic during the period 2001–2011 ( n?=?18?386). We divided placental index into quartiles and analyzed the differences between the groups in term of pregnancy outcomes. Then, we estimated crude and adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for placental index over the third centile of the distribution to correlate with pregnancy outcomes. We also analyzed the correlation between IVF/ICSI conceived pregnancies and placental index. Results: Poor pregnancy outcomes were overrepresented in the highest quartile of placental index distribution. Thus, placental index was higher in pregnancies characterized by pregnancy-related hypertensive disorders (PRHDs), small for gestational age infants, newborn needing cardiopulmonary resuscitation or hospitalization in neonatal intensive care unit. These findings were independent of maternal age, length of gestation at delivery, IVF/ICSI conception and ethnicity. For IVF/ICSI pregnancies, the OR for being over the third quartile of placental index distribution was 2.01 (CI.95 1.40–2.90) after adjustment for maternal age, length of gestation, ethnicity, birth weight, parity, fetal sex, alteration of glucose metabolism in pregnancy and PRHDs. Conclusions: We found a high placental index among pregnancies characterized by poor outcomes and conceived by IVF/ICSI. 相似文献

Purposes: Nowadays, an increasing number of studies have proposed single embryo transfer (SET), especially single blastocyst transfer (SBT). To compare the clinical outcomes of single fresh blastocyst transfer (BT) and single cryopreserved-thawed BT in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) cycles. Methods: The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched from the start dates until February 2018. The primary outcomes were clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) and embryo implantation rate (IR). The secondary outcomes were multiple pregnancy rate (MPR), live birth rate (LBR), and miscarriage rate (MR). Using the Mantel–Haenszel random effects model to analyze summary risk ratio (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Statistical heterogeneity scores were assessed with the standard Cochrane’s Q test and I2 statistic. Results: In total, eight studies (two prospective studies, six retrospective studies) were included in our analysis. There was no statistically significant difference regarding clinical pregnancy (RR?=?1.18, 95% CI?=?0.91–1.55) and embryo implantation (RR?=?1.04, 95% CI?=?0.77–1.41). Regarding secondary outcomes, there was no significant difference regarding miscarriage (RR?=?0.79, 95% CI?=?0.60–1.03) and multiple pregnancy (RR?=?1.23, 95% CI?=?0.75–2.04). However, single fresh BT is associated with an increased live birth (RR?=?1.28, 95% CI?=?1.05–1.57) compared with single cryopreserved-thawed BT. Conclusions: In summary, this meta-analysis supports the hypothesis that single cryopreserved BT might not be the best choice compared with single fresh BT in patients undergoing IVF/ICSI cycles. 相似文献

Surgical eradication of minimal and mild endometriosis has been shown to increase the birth rate both spontaneously and after intrauterine insemination. This study from a reproductive medicine unit at a referral university hospital examined whether surgical eradication of minimal and mild endometriosis prior to IVF improved the treatment outcome. Records of infertile patients with minimal and mild endometriosis (American Society for Reproductive Medicine stages I and II) with no prior IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatments were analysed. During the first treatment cycle, women who had undergone complete removal ( n = 399) of endometriotic lesions experienced, compared with women with diagnostic laparoscopy only ( n = 262), a significantly improved implantation rate (30.9% versus 23.9%, P = 0.02), pregnancy rate (40.1% versus 29.4%, P = 0.004) and live-birth rate per ovum retrieval (27.7% versus 20.6%, P = 0.04). Surgical removal of minimal and mild endometriotic lesions also gave shorter time to first pregnancy and a higher cumulative pregnancy rate. The study shows that women with stages I and II endometriosis undergoing IVF/ICSI have significantly shorter time to pregnancy and higher live-birth rate if all visible endometriosis is completely eliminated at the time of diagnostic surgery.Surgical elimination of minimal and mild endometriosis has been shown to increase the birth rate both spontaneously and after intrauterine insemination. In this study from a reproductive medicine unit at a referral university hospital, we examined whether surgical elimination of minimal and mild endometriosis prior to IVF improved the outcome of this treatment as well. During the first IVF treatment cycle, women who had undergone complete surgical removal of endometriosis experienced, compared with women who still had their endometriosis, an improved rate of embryo implantation, pregnancy rate and live birth rate per ovum retrieval. Surgical removal of minimal and mild endometriotic lesions also gave shorter time to first pregnancy and a higher cumulative pregnancy rate. In summary, our study shows that women with minimal and mild endometriosis undergoing IVF have shorter time to pregnancy and higher live-birth rate if all visible endometriosis is completely eliminated before the start of treatment. 相似文献

Objectives.?To compare the effect of recombinant follicle-stimulating hormones (r-FSH) and human menopausal gonadotrophin (hMG) on leptin levels in serum and follicular fluid (FF) during in vitro fertilization IVF/ET treatment, and to investigate whether leptin levels in the follicular fluid and/or serum are correlated with IVF success. Methods.?Sixty-three patients undergoing IVF cycle were subdivided into two groups. r-FSH was used to for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation in 29 patients (Group A) while, hMG was used in 34 patients (Group B). Our main outcomes were serum and FF leptin on the day of oocyte collection. Result(s).?The two groups were comparable in age, body mass index (BMI), indications for IVF/ET, E2 level on human chorionic gonadotrophin day, number of retrieved oocytes, fertilization rate, number of transferred embryos and pregnancy rate. Serum and FF leptin levels were similar between the two study groups. Additionally, no correlation was found between levels of leptin in either serum or FF and cycle results such as: number of retrieved oocytes, fertilization rate and pregnancy rate. Conclusions.?r-FSH and hMG have been found to have comparable effects on leptin levels in the serum and the FF of patients undergoing IVF/ET. Additionally, leptin levels in both serum and FF on day of retrieval have no correlation to IVF/ET outcome. 相似文献
