Females with DOR must resort to assisted reproductive technology (ART), such as in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). An increasing number of studies have focused on the pregnancy outcomes of women with DOR/POR who resort to IVF/ICSI. Some studies have shown...

In most assisted reproduction programs, gonadotropins are used alone or in combination to stimulate the growth and maturation of multiple follicles. This is essential because of the need to recruit a greater number of follicles, which provides the opportunity for retrieval of a large number of oocy...
the birth of the first test-tube baby in Oldham, England, marked the beginning of ART in 1978 [93]. Since then, scientists have been striving to improve the method of in vitro fertilization by various means. Wang et
showed that HIV-1 genomes found to an extend of 18% in seminal cells samples decreased to undetectable levels following a combined density gradient centrifugation with a subsequent swim-up [23]. No seroconversion of the virus could be observed after fertilization of oocytes by IVF-ICSI [24–26...
Flow cytometric sorting of human sperm shifted the X:Y sperm ratio. IUI, IVF/ICSI and FET outcomes were consistent with unimpaired sperm function. Results provide evidence supporting the effectiveness of flow cytometric sorting of human sperm for use as a preconception method of influencing a baby...
form nanoneedle structures with nickel particles on their tips. The typical dimensions of the nanoneedle structures were 6–10 μm in length, 20–50 nm in tip diameter and approximately 1 μm in base diameter. The reaction time and the growth time have great influence on the length of the ...
The resulting electrochemical proton gradient forms the basis of the ψmt and is utilized to generate chemical energy in the form of ATP. This ψmt is also one of the crucial factors responsible for Ca2+ uptake. Ca2+ can freely cross the OMM but in order to enter the matrix it must ...
As the human ovarian follicle enlarges in the course of a regular cycle or following controlled ovarian stimulation, the changes in its structure reveal the oocyte environment composed of cumulus oophorus cells and the follicular fluid (FF). In contrast to the dynamic nature of cells, the fluid...
However, the question regarding whether r-hFSH is preferred from the clinical perspective is the topic of ongoing debate [10–12]. In terms of its primary constituents, hMG contains both FSH and LH activity (in the form of LH and hCG, which have short- and long half-lives, respectively)...
