Hydrosalpinx reduces in-vitro fertilization/embryo transfer pregnancy rates

Abstract

A retrospective study was designed to examine whether the presence of a hydrosalpinx influenced pregnancy outcome following in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment in stimulated cycles. A total of 254 women with tubal lesions were included. Patients with one or two hydrosalpinges were compared with patients having other tubal lesions and pregnancy outcome was analysed. Both pregnancy and delivery rates were significantly higher in the patient group without a hydrosalpinx. The results after frozen embryo transfer showed the same tendency. These findings strongly indicate that a permanent hydrosalpinx has a negative influence on implantation, as well as on pregnancy, and suggest that a more active approach against large hydrosalpinges should be undertaken before IVF treatment, in order to improve the pregnancy rates.

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.
