Abstract

Objective To determine whether endometriosis ultimately results in an increased risk of embryonic aneuploidy.Design Retrospective cohort.Setting Infertility clinic.Patient(s) Patients participating in an in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle from 2009-2015 using preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) who had endometriosis identified by surgical diagnosis or by ultrasound findings consistent with a persistent space-occupying disease whose sonographic appearance was consistent with endometriosis.Intervention(s) None.Main outcome measure(s) Rate of aneuploidy in endometriosis patients undergoing IVF compared to controls without endometriosis undergoing IVF.Result(s) There were 305 patients with endometriosis who produced 1,880 blastocysts that met the criteria for inclusion in the endometriosis group. The mean age of the patients with endometriosis was 36.1 ± 3.9 years. When the aneuploidy rates in patients with endometriosis and aneuploidy rates in patients without endometriosis were stratified by Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology age groups and compared, there were no statistically significant differences in the rate of aneuploidy (odds ratio 0.85; 95% confidence interval, 0.84-0.85).Conclusion(s) Patients with endometriosis undergoing IVF have aneuploidy rates equivalent to their age-matched peers in IVF population who do not have endometriosis.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The studies showing unaltered outcomes after euploid blastocyst transfer all used hormone replacement cycles with intramuscular progesterone.

    “However, it is important to note that all these latter studies report transfers of euploid blastocysts conducted in hormone replacement cycles using progesterone administered by intramuscular injections.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
