Abstract

usromosomal abnormalities are responsible for a great deal of embryo wastage, which is reflected, at least partially, in decreased implantation and increased miscarriage in older women. To address this problem the transfer of only chromosomally normal embryos previously selected by preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) has been proposed. We designed a multi-centre in-vitro fertilization (IVF) study to compare controls and a test group that underwent embryo biopsy and PGD for aneuploidy. Patients were matched retrospectively, but blindly, for average maternal age, number of previous IVF cycles, duration of stimulation, oestradiol concentrations on day +1, and average mature follicles. All these parameters were similar in test and control groups. Only embryos classified as normal for those chromosomes were transferred after PGD. The results showed that the rates of fetal heart beat (FHB)/embryo transferred between the control and test groups were similar. However, spontaneous abortions, measured as FHB aborted/FHB detected, decreased after PGD (P < 0.05), and ongoing pregnancies and delivered babies increased (P < 0.05) in the PGD group of patients. Two conclusions were obtained: (i) PGD of aneuploidy reduced embryo loss after implantation; (ii) implantation rates were not significantly improved, but the proportion of ongoing and delivered babies was increased.

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.
