Oocyte vitrification versus ovarian cortex transplantation in fertility preservation for adult women undergoing gonadotoxic treatments: a prospective…
2017
Objective To compare the efficacy of oocyte vitrification (OV) with that of ovarian cortex cryopreservation and transplantation (OCT) in women undergoing gonadotoxic treatments. Design Prospective observational cohort study. Setting Not applicable. Patient(s) Candidates for chemo-/radiotherapy who joined our fertility preservation (FP) program were included in this study between 2005 and 2015. One cohort included 1,024 patients undergoing OV; the other cohort included 800 patients undergoing OCT. Intervention(s) OV using the cryotop device and OCT using a slow freezing protocol. Main Outcome Measure(s) Live-birth rate (LBR) and clinical pregnancy rate (CPR). Result(s) Basal antimullerian ho…
Eating disorders: Considerations on nosology, etiology and treatment in the XXI century
2011
Amazing advances have been made in medical sciences since the first international conference on eating disorders (ED) was held in the 1970s, and there have been remarkable changes in the field of ED itself. Back then, virtually all that was talked about was anorexia nervosa; clinicians and researchers were mainly concerned about the possible hypothalamic and endocrine factors that seemed to be involved and there had been no epidemiological studies or controlled trials with psychiatric drugs or psychotherapy. Although the picture today is quite different, there are still significant gaps which even affect the classification of these disorders, as well as their neurobiological bases and both …
Effect of different cryopreservation protocols on the metaphase II spindle in human oocytes.
2008
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of different cryopreservation protocols on the repolymerization of metaphase (M)II spindles in human oocytes. Fresh aspirated donor oocytes were cryopreserved 3–4 h after retrieval using four different protocols: slow freezing using 1.5 mol/l 1,2-propanediol (PROH) + 0.2 mol/l sucrose (n = 36); 1.5 mol/l PROH + 0.3 mol/l sucrose (n = 34); 1.5 mol/l PROH + 0.3 mol/l sucrose with Na + depleted–choline replaced media (n = 27), and vitrification by the Cryotip method (n = 23). The control group comprised 34 fresh oocytes. Three hours after thawing, surviving and control oocytes were fixed for meiotic spindle/chromatin assessment. Survival rates w…
Los trastornos de la conducta alimentaria: consideraciones sobre nosología, etiopatogenia y tratamiento en el siglo xxi
2012
Resumen Desde la primera conferencia internacional sobre los trastornos alimentarios, celebrada en los anos 70, hasta la actualidad, el desarrollo de las ciencias medicas ha sido sorprendente. En el campo de los trastornos de la conducta alimentaria (TCA) tambien se han producido cambios notables. En las fechas iniciales practicamente solo se hacia mencion de la anorexia nerviosa y sus posibles factores hipotalamicos y endocrinos; no habia estudios epidemiologicos ni ensayos controlados con psicofarmacos o psicoterapia. El panorama actual es bien diferente aunque hay carencias importantes que afectan a la propia nosografia de estas patologias, al conocimiento de sus bases neurobiologicas y …
New options in assisted reproduction technology: the Cryotop method of oocyte vitrification
2008
The Cryotop vitrification method has been shown to be a very useful tool for oocyte cryopreservation, giving excellent results regarding survival and clinical outcome. There are several clinical situations in which oocyte cryopreservation provides solutions that have not been available to date. This report describes three of these situations: (i) a low-responder patient who needed a single gene diagnosis due to the presence of a genetic disease; (ii) a patient undergoing endometrial bleeding on the day of oocyte retrieval who was also affected by a genetic disorder; and (iii) a patient who failed to become pregnant after the donation of vitrified oocytes and subsequently had the re-vitrifie…
Ovarian stimulation for oocyte vitrification does not modify disease-free survival and overall survival rates in patients with early breast cancer
2019
Research question: Does ovarian stimulation for oocyte vitrification affect disease-free survival and overall survival rates in women with early breast cancer? Design: This cohort study included 259 patients with early breast cancer; 148 patients underwent ovarian stimulation, whereas 111 patients did not. Patients were treated between January 2008 and December 2016. To calculate the disease-free survival time and overall survival rate, the time of definitive surgery was defined as the starting point. The follow-up was conducted up to 5 years. Results: Exposed and non-exposed groups were comparable in tumour, node and metastases classification, Nottingham grade, hormonal receptor status, tu…
