  1. 1. Safety and quality aspects of IVF - neonatal and maternal outcomes following advanced techniques

    Author : Erica Ginström Ernstad; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; blastocyst transfer; frozen embryo transfer; vitrification; preimplantation genetic testing; neonatal outcome; maternal outcome;

    Abstract : Background: Singletons born following assisted reproductive technology (ART) have adverse neonatal outcome compared to singletons born following spontaneous conception (SC). Moreover, the women undergoing ART are at an increased risk of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) and placental complications. READ MORE

    Author : Antonina Sazonova; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; in-vitro fertilization; single embryo transfer; neonatal outcome; maternal outcome;

    Abstract : Obstetric outcome after single embryo transfer Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Institute of Clinical Sciences, The Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, SE-413 45 Gothenburg, Sweden. Background: Children born after IVF have a poorer neonatal outcome than children born after spontaneous conception, even after adjustment for confounders. READ MORE

  3. 3. Prediction of embryo viability by morphology and metabolomic profiling

    Author : Aisling Ahlström; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NIR spectroscopy; morphology; blastocyst; IVF; trophectoderm; live birth; metabolomic; embryo;

    Abstract : Abstract The ultimate challenge for all in vitro fertilisation (IVF) clinics is to develop the ability to select for transfer the best single embryo first, from the patient’s cohort of embryos, thereby maximising the chance of pregnancy while the incidence of multiple pregnancies is kept to a minimum and fewer transfer cycles are required. This ambition has driven extensive research and development into methods that can be used to predict embryo viability. READ MORE

  4. 4. Studies on in vitro fertilised human preembryos. Morphological and chromosomal aspects

    Author : Thorir Hardarson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : IVF; oocyte; embryo; blastocyst; human; FISH; aneuploidy;

    Abstract : The success rate of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) has gradually increased due to basic research in preembryonic biology and the introduction of new methods, both technical and medical. However, further research is needed to establish which preembryos are developmentally most competent in order to be able to maintain the pregnancy rate while only a single preembryo is being transferred.

  5. 5. GM-CSF. A regulator of pre-implantation embryo development

    Author : Cecilia Sjöblom; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : GM-CSF blastocyst embryo culture cytokine growth factor GM-CSF receptor glucose transport apoptosis;

    Abstract : GM-CSF is a multifunctional cytokine expressed in abundance in the female reproductive tract during early pregnancy. We have investigated the regulatory influence of GM-CSF in development of pre-implantation mouse and human embryos. READ MORE
