To compare obstetric and neonatal outcomes between women with surgically confirmed deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) and superficial endometriosis, focusing on lesion-specific risk profiles. This retrospective cohort study included women with …
The meiotic spindle is essential for accurate chromosome segregation during oocyte maturation and fertilization, and its alteration might be considered a major contributor to age-related aneuploidy and reproductive failure. Spindle …
Oocyte quality is the primary determinant of success in assisted reproductive technologies (ART), and mitochondrial dysfunction is increasingly recognized as a central mediator of poor oocyte competence across advanced maternal …
Presence of embryo-derived cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in spent culture medium (SCM) represents a promising non-invasive alternative to the conventional preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). The present study evaluated the feasibility of …
Mycotoxins are widespread food contaminants, and urinary biomarkers reflect recent dietary exposure. Although mycotoxins have been implicated in reproductive toxicity, their impact on human oocyte and embryo development remains poorly …
Advanced maternal age (AMA) is a major challenge in reproductive medicine, compounded by coexisting conditions such as adenomyosis and endometriosis, which impair oocyte competence and endometrial receptivity. Prolonged gonadotropin-releasing hormone …
Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) is widely used to screen for embryo aneuploidy, enabling the selection and transfer of genetically normal embryos. Despite its potential to improve clinical outcomes, …
Uterine rupture is an infrequent yet sometimes fatal complication of a subsequent vaginal birth attempt following a previous uterine surgery. We have chosen to write about spontaneous uterine ruptures following …
A systematic review was conducted pertaining to the biologic processes of cumulus cells and measures of oocyte quality. The initial search yielded 18,549 articles, and after screening, 65 studies were …
Purpose: To evaluate how migraine impacts the risk for postpartum depression (PPD) in women of reproductive age as well as the effect of comorbidities on this risk. Methods: This is …
