ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application value of sperm nucleoprotein immaturity and sperm DNA damage detection in in vitro fertilization(IVF).Methods From Mar.2015 to Feb.2016,routine sperm analysis,sperm nucleoprotein immaturity and sperm DNA damage detection were performed in 102 patients with infertility,and the correlation between these parameters were analyzed.Results Sperm DNA fragmentation rate was negatively correlated with IVF optimal embryos rate and sperm viability(P0.05).Sperm nucleoprotein immaturity rate was not correlated with IVF optimal embryos rate and fertility rate(P>0.05),while was negatively correlated with sperm concentration(P<0.05).Conclusion Sperm DNA fragmentation rate could be closely correlated with IVF optimal embryos rate,which might be with prediction value in IVF treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate how to optimize the protocol of embryo cryopreservation to improve the success of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET), reduce multiple pregnancy rate and increase the cumulative pregnancy rate from one oocyte retrieval process. Methods The clinical data of 1 166 FET cycles were retrospectively analyzed and separated into different groups:445 for vitrification and 721 for slow-freezing. The vitrification group was divided into single embryo (28 cy?cles), double embryos (71 cycles) and triple embryos (346 cycles). 0-1 optimal embryo was called O0-1 group (235 cycles), 2 optimal embryos were called O2 group (80 cycles), 3 optimal embryos were called O3 group (130 cycles). The difference preg?nancy outcomes (implantation rate, clinical pregnancy, abortion rate and live-birth rate) were compared between groups. Results (1) There were significantly higher embryo survival rate(98.3%vs 73.1%), embryo recovery rate without damaging (83.3%vs 62.1%), implantation rate(36.8%vs 29.9%), clinical pregnancy(57.1%vs 44.0%) and live-birth rate(47.9%vs 34.5%) in vitrification group than those of slow freezing group(P0.05). Conclusion Vitrification technology can improve the clinical pregnancy and live-birth rate, and decrease multiple preg?nancy rate. Two optimal embryos in one tube are supposed to be the preferred method for embryo cryopreservation.
