   Abstract : During pregnancy, 4 - 7% of women suffer from major depressive disorder. When antidepressive treatment is needed, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are the most commonly used. Although severe complications from SSRI treatment are rare, association with a number of adverse pregnancy and fetal outcomes has been found. READ MORE

4. 2. Elective single embryo transfer

   Author : Ann Thurin-Kjellberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : In vitro fertilization; elective single embryo transfer; multiple pregnancies; randomized; controlled trial; prediction of IVF outcome; embryo selection; cost-effectiveness analysis;

   Abstract : The aim of the study was to evaluate if the elective single embryo transfer (eSET) strategy couldmaintain delivery rates, with at least one live born child, and at the same time decrease the rate ofmultiple births. A cost-effectiveness analysis was also performed between the elective single embryotransfer (SET) (1+1) and double embryo transfer (DET) (2+0) strategies. READ MORE

5. 3. Developmental disturbances of the embryo in diabetic pregnancy

   Author : Parri Wentzel; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cell biology; diabetes; pregnancy; embryo; malformation; glucose; ROS; SOD; NAC; prosta- glandin; COX; COX inhibitor; gene expression; Cellbiologi; Cell biology; Cellbiologi; medicinsk cellbiologi; Medical Cell Biology;

   Abstract : Maternal diabetes during pregnancy constitutes an increased risk for congenital malformation in the offspring. Previous studies have suggested that diabetic embryopathy is associated with an excess of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as well as with a disturbance of prostaglandin (PG) metabolism. READ MORE

6. 4. 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

7. 5. Obstetric outcome after single embryo transfer

   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
