Optimal Timing for Oocyte Denudation and Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection

2011

Objectives. To analyze the impact of oocyte denudation and microinjection timings on intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes.Study Design. We included ICSI cycles with the following parameters: rank 1 or 2, female age years, male factor infertility, long protocol using GnRH agonist and rFSH for ovarian stimulation, and use of freshly ejaculated sperm (). Several ICSI parameters were analyzed according to the time between oocyte retrieval and denudation () and the time between denudation and ICSI () using a statistical logistic regression analysis.Results. Neither nor had a significant influence on the Metaphase II (MII) rate but the fertilisation rate (FR) showed a significant impr…

Olfaction in the fetal and premature infant: functional status and clinical implications.

2004

This article considers olfaction as a functioning source of information for the fetus and the neonate, born on term or prematurely. It aims to present how odors are involved in the sensory continuity between the prenatal and postnatal environments and how they influence the earliest adaptive responses of newborns in the realms of self-regulation, emotional balance, feeding, and social interactions.Finally, it evaluates odors as sensory means to ameliorate the physiologic and behavioral responses of preterm infants to the adverse impacts of separation from mother, nonoral feeding, or iatrogenic distress.

P02.40: The influence of maternal age on the association of an isolated fetal intracardiac echogenic focus and fetal aneuploidy

2006

decided to follow up the pregnancy during two weeks and perform the cordocentesis in this time, karyotope was normal. At 26 weeks we found progressive changes in fetal anatomy: heart herniation became larger, left lobe of liver began to protruse, the absence of the sternum and cartilaginous parts of the ribs was confirmed. Patient was offered pregnancy termination because of the impossibility of surgical correction. Radiography, CT and morphology of abortus confirmed ultrasound diagnosis of isolated absence of the sternum and cartilaginous parts of the ribs.

groups: 87.7%(10434/11893), 87.4%(2674/3060), 80.2%(1350/1683) and 81.0%(634/783). Abnormal fertilization rate was significantly lower in 9598% group(6.9%,54/783) than other groups(16.1%,1918/11893; 13.8%,421/ 3060; 11.4%,192/1683). Good embryo, pregnancy and implantation rates were no significant differences among four groups(48.9%,61.6%,43.5%; 48.9%,62.1%,43.5%; 50.0%,57.6%,42.3%; 53.1%,62.5%,45.7%). CONCLUSION: Sperm morphology does not affect normal fertilization, embryonic development and clinical outcome.

La objeción de conciencia farmacéutica a la píldora postcoital

2003

The article represents a taking of position regarding the matter of the conscience objection towards the morning-after pill (MAP). The MAP is considered like an emergency contraception that the woman can take within the 72 hours from the sexual intercourse. The mechanisms of action of the product can be the following: a. to avoid the ovulation; b. to prevent the fusion between oocyte and sperm after the ovulation; c. to make impossible the implant of the embryo in the uterus. The author questions in the article if the MAP is abortive and, in this case, explicits the fundamental points of the Spanish law about the conscience objection. It is not difficult to ascertain that the MAP acts as co…

P–231 Transnational oocyte donation program between Italy and Spain based on transport of vitrified oocytes: a five-years experience

2021

Abstract Study question What is the clinical efficacy of an oocyte donation program based on the transportation of vitrified oocytes between two countries? Summary answer The transnational oocyte donation program is efficient, safe and comparable to other strategies (transport of frozen sperm and embryos). What is known already Egg donation represents a valid treatment strategy for women who have exhausted their ovarian function and it has considerably increased in the last years. In Italy, egg donation is allowed after the judgment of the Constitutional Court n. 162 in 2014 but no reimbursement for the donors is provided. For this reason, the number of voluntary donors is irrelevant. There…

722: Maternal solid organ transplantation and pregnancy outcome; a national population-based cohort study

outcome; a national population-based cohort study Nils-Halvdan Morken, Cesar Diaz-Garcia, Mats Brannstrom University of Bergen, Public Health and Primary Health care, Bergen, Norway, University of Valencia, Gynecology and Obstetrics, Valencia, Spain, University of Gothenburg, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Valencia, Sweden OBJECTIVE: The first pregnancy with a live birth after solid organ transplantation in the human occurred more than 50 years ago. Still, knowledge about this very special patient group is limited. The objective was to assess the risk of adverse pregnancy outcome after transplant compared to pregnancies before transplant in females. We also compared the risk after transplant wi…
