The regulatory vacuum in the field of ART in India was filled when in December 2021, the Assisted Reproductive Technology (Regulation) Act, 2021 (ART Act) (https://egazette.nic.in/WriteReadData/2021/232025.pdf) and the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021 (SR Act) were passed. We surveyed medical professionals to understand their knowledge, attitude and perception towards the Acts and to offer an initial, snapshot assessment of their impact on the medical community. The government has already signalled its intent to implement the Acts and has published several notifications/gazettes to clarify and amend the issues surrounding the Acts (https://artsurrogacy...

Infertility is a significant global issue affecting numerous couples, with India experiencing a considerable prevalence. Limited access to assisted reproductive technology centers and social stigmas result in underreporting and low service utilization. The financial burden of infertility treatment is substantial due to high costs and lack of insurance coverage. The absence of national guidelines and monitoring raises concerns about unethical practices. Standardizing ART practice and infertility management guidelines, integrating care into primary healthcare, and raising awareness to reduce social stigma can enhance the quality and accessibility of infertility treatment...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Diabetes mellitus (DM) may have different adverse effects on the male reproductive system. Zinc (Zn) is one of the necessary elements in the human and mammalian diet that plays an important role in scavenging reactive oxygen species (ROS) by providing antioxidant and anti-apoptotic properties. The aim of this study was to determine the protective effects of zinc supplements on sperm chromatin and the evaluation of sperm deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) integrity in diabetic men...

BACKGROUND: This was a prospective randomized controlled trial in 200 cases presented with endometrial cavity fluid at the day of oocyte retrieval at a private fertility center from 2013 to 2021. The cases were randomized at day of ovum pickup into 2 groups: Group 1 (control group) ( n  = 100): conventional management with follow-up and reassessment by transvaginal ultrasound on day 5. Group 2 (interventional group) ( n  = 100): aspiration of the fluid was done and cases were given diosmin 500 mg 3 times per day till reassessment at embryo transfer day...

BACKGROUND: Condition mediums have a potential role in oocyte development. In this study, we evaluated the effects of different mediums on the developmental potential of vitrified immature human oocyte after IVM and parthenogenesis by ionomycin. METHODS: Immature oocytes were collected from 184 women after vitrification/thawing and maturation, in three types of IVM mediums separately. Finally, 151 IVM MΙΙ oocytes were obtained and randomly divided into six groups and underwent the following intervention...

INTRODUCTION: Elderly women are believed to experience many risks associated with pregnancy. Literature fails to provide a clear consensus on the age group in which there is a rise in risk and pathophysiology contributing. 'Pregnancies over forty' are increasing in society, owing to changing lifestyles and sensibilities of youth and the advent of assisted reproductive techniques. In India, studies on elderly pregnant women above 40 years of age are lacking. The aim of this study is to assess these pregnancies, their course, obstetric and perinatal outcomes in women delivering above 40 years...

In the past few years almost every aspect of an IVF cycle has been investigated, including research on sperm, color doppler in follicular studies, prediction of embryo cleavage, prediction of blastocyst formation, scoring blastocyst quality, prediction of euploid blastocysts and live birth from blastocysts, improving the embryo selection process, and for developing deep machine learning (ML) algorithms for optimal IVF stimulation protocols. Also, artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods have been implemented for some clinical aspects of IVF, such as assessing patient reproductive potential and individualizing gonadotropin stimulation protocols...

PURPOSE: To evaluate whether elective single embryo transfer in patients with suboptimal response to ovarian stimulation is detrimental to pregnancy rates compared to double embryo transfer. METHODS: A case-control retrospective study was performed in a cohort of couples undergoing IVF at the Infertility Unit of the ASST Lariana with ≤ 9 oocytes and at least 2 viable embryos. A total of 424 women were analyzed in the "double embryo transfer" group ( n  = 212) and elective "single embryo transfer" group ( n  = 212); they were matched 1:1 for female age, ovarian reserve and number of previous cycles...

BACKGROUND: Infertility is one of the major causes of socioeconomic stress worldwide due to social stigma and stressful lifestyles. Despite technological advances, couples still undergo several IVF cycles for conceiving without knowing their true prognosis which is causing a huge social and medical impact, and the live birth rate continues to be relatively low (~ 25%). A prediction model that predicts IVF prognosis accurately considering the pre-treatment parameters before starting the IVF cycle will help clinicians and patients to make better-informed choices...

BACKGROUND: Uterine fibroids are the most common benign smooth muscle tumors of the uterus. However, there is no consensus on whether myomectomy improves IVF success in women with non-cavity-distorting intramural fibroids. The aim of this study was to compare the IVF and pregnancy outcomes of women who had non-cavity-distorting intramural fibroids and underwent myomectomy vs women who had intramural fibroids, but did not undergo myomectomy. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study at Acibadem Maslak Hospital, IVF Center, between 2019 and 2020...

INTRODUCTION: While dealing with the COVID-19-related morbidities and mortalities in general, its adverse impact on non-COVID-19 maternal mortalities was completely forgotten so our aim is t o study the adverse consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic on non-COVID-19 hospital births and non-COVID-19 maternal mortalities. METHODOLOGY: Retrospective observational study was done in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Swaroop Rani Hospital, Prayagraj, to compare the non-COVID-19 hospital births, referrals, and non-COVID-19 maternal mortalities during 15 months of pre-pandemic period (March 2018 to May 2019) and 15 months of pandemic period (March 2020 to May 2021 period) and to assess their relation to GRSI using chi-square test, paired T test and Pearson's Correlation Coefficient...

OBJECTIVE: To triage low-grade cervical smears (ASCUS/LSIL) by HPV 16/18 genotyping and dual staining with p16/Ki67 and to compare the sensitivity and specificity of these two triage methods for detection of high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (HGCIN). METHODS: In this prospective cross-sectional study, we evaluated a total of 89 women with low-grade smears (54 ASCUS, 35 LSIL) recruited from a tertiary care hospital. All patients underwent colposcopy guided cervical biopsy...

BACKGROUND: Arteriovenous malformation of umbilical cord is an extremely rare congenital malformation. Causes of this condition are unknown. AVM of umbilical cord can cause significant complications in the developing fetus. METHODS: We report our management of the case with accurate ultrasound study that could improve and facilitate the approach to this pathology due to the lack of literature and with an overview of the available literature. RESULTS: There are only two cases of umbilical AVM diagnosed in the prenatal period with associated pathology...

BACKGROUND: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with various maternal and perinatal morbidities. Serum ferritin is a major storage protein of iron and also acts as acute phase reactant which is increased in inflammatory conditions. GDM is a state of insulin resistance and associated with inflammation. The aim of this study was to find the correlation between serum ferritin and development of GDM. OBJECTIVES: To determine the serum ferritin concentration in nonanemic pregnant women and its correlation with subsequent development of GDM...
