Fertilization after standard in vitro fertilization versus intracytoplasmic sperm injection in subfertile males using sibling oocytes
Open accessAbstract
Objective To compare conventional IVF with ICSI in the subfertile male population using sibling oocytes. Results from males with isolated severe teratozoospermia also are analyzed. Design Prospective experimental study. Setting University based IVF clinic. Patient(s) Group A: 18 patients with one or more abnormalities in count, motility, or morphology. Group B: 20 patients with isolated severe teratozoospermia ( Intervention(s) Ovulation induction, random allocation of sibling oocytes, and IVF or ICSI. Main outcome measure(s) Fertilization rates (fertilization per cycle, fertilization per oocytes, and fertilization per couple) and embryo quality. Result(s) In group A, fertilization occurred in 13 of 18 (72%) of IVF cycles and 17 of 18 (94%) of ICSI cycles. Overall, 69 of 120 (58%) oocytes fertilized after IVF, whereas 80 of 131 (61%) fertilized after ICSI. The mean (+/-SEM) percent of oocytes fertilized per couple was 44.6%+/-9.0% with IVF and 62.7%+/-5.6% with ICSI (not statistically significant). In group B, fertilization occurred in 18 of 20 (90%) cycles after IVF and 20 of 20 (100%) cycles with ICSI. Overall, 54 of 113 (48%) of the oocytes fertilized after IVF, whereas 82 of 124 (66%) fertilized with ICSI. The mean (+/-SEM) percent of oocytes fertilized per couple was 50.9%+/-7.1 % with IVF and 66.6%+/-4.7% with ICSI. No statistically significant difference in embryo quality after IVF versus ICSI was demonstrated. Conclusion(s) With severe teratozoospermia, ICSI results i…

Pisarska et al. compared IVF and ICSI outcomes in men with isolated teratozoospermia and found that ICSI produced insignificantly higher rates of oocytes fertilized than conventional IVF (100% vs. 90%).

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.
