Impact of COVID-19 disease on the male factor in reproductive medicine - how-to advise couples undergoing IVF/ICSI
CONCLUSIONS: The findings of this narrative review suggest that SARS-CoV-2 may harm sperm quality in the acute phase.IMPLICATIONS: A recovery time of at least 3months regarding assisted reproductive therapy could be reasonable.PMID:38185121 | DOI:10.1071/RD23205 (Source: Reproduction, Fertility, and Development)

Optimizing non-invasive preimplantation genetic testing: investigating culture conditions, sample collection, and IVF treatment for improved non-invasive PGT-A results
ConclusionWe have shown a higher concordance rate when SCM was collected on day 6 and the embryos were rinsed in a sequential manner. Comparable results of niPGT-A when oocytes were fertilized by conventional insemination or ICSI. These optimization steps are important prior to commencement of a randomized trial in niPGT-A.

Individualised gonadotropin dose selection using markers of ovarian reserve for women undergoing in vitro fertilisation plus intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI)
CONCLUSIONS: We did not find that tailoring the FSH dose in any particular ORT population (low, normal, high ORT) affected live birth/ongoing pregnancy rates, but we could not rule out differences, due to sample size limitations. Low-certainty evidence suggests that it is unclear if ORT-based individualisation leads to an increase in live birth/ongoing pregnancy rates compared to a policy of giving all women 150 IU. The confidence interval is consistent with an increase of up to around six percentage points with ORT-based dosing (e.g. from 25% to 31%) or a very small decrease (< 1%). A difference of this magnitude could...

Comparative study of intracytoplasmic sperm injection using the traditional holding and the oocyte-holding pipette without aspiration
Zygote. 2024 Jan 4:1-6. doi: 10.1017/S0967199423000618. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDespite the high level of standardization of the intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) technique, there are some aspects that deserve special attention and should still be improved. The major drawback of the technique is its invasiveness, as during cytoplasmic aspiration different structures of the oocyte may be lost or damaged. This is partly because the microtools used in ICSI were not specially designed for assisted reproduction but for other medical-biological disciplines. In view of the above caveats, the aim of the study was to co...

Increased Y chromosome microdeletions in cord blood of male newborns from assisted reproductive technology compared to natural conception
CONCLUSIONS: Our studies indicate that the population of male children conceived through ARTs, particularly ICSI, are at an increased risk of genetic defect in the form of partial Y chromosome microdeletions. The growing population of ART-conceived children emphasizes the importance of studying genetic repercussions of these procedures in regards to the future fertility of males conceived in vitro.PMID:38176679 | DOI:10.1016/j.jogc.2023.102342 (Source: Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Canada : JOGC)
