   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Assisted reproductive technology; IVF; long-term outcome; children;

   Abstract : Background: While the short-term outcome after assisted reproductive technology (ART) is broadly examined, studies on the long-term outcome of ART children are limited.

   Abstract : Treatment success in IVF-ICSI is mainly limited by female age, but differences in ovarian reserve (OR; the remaining pool of oocytes and their quality) between individuals modify treatment prerequisites among women of similar age. OR may be assessed by OR tests (ORTs). READ MORE

5. 3. Acupuncture in reproductive medicine. Applications in human assisted reproduction and aspects of clinical and experimental neuroendocrinology

   Abstract : The use of acupuncture in the area of reproductive medicine is relatively new, and it has been rather poorly investigated in the past. When muscle afferents are stimulated by acupuncture in somatic segments related to the innervation of the ovaries and the uterus, functional changes occur in the neural substrate that may influence reproductive function and result in peripheral, segmental and central effects.

6. 4. Venous thromboembolism and mechanisms during assisted reproductive technology

   Author : Nina Olausson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Background: Assisted reproductive technology (ART) is increasingly used worldwide to treat infertility and assist couples and single mothers with their conception. The most common ART procedure includes treatment with exogenous hormones to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple oocytes, followed by an in vitro fertilisation (IVF) achieved by letting oocyte and sperm combine in vitro or by direct intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) into the oocyte.
