Item Is Endometrial Receptivity Assay (ERA) Useful in Patients with Repeated Implantation Failure Undergoing Single, Autologous Euploid Embryo Transfer?(IMR PRESS, 2022-01-01) Ozaltin, Selin; Celik, Hale Goksever; Takmaz, Ozguc; Yagmur, Erbil; Ozbasli, Esra; Gungor, Mete; Yeh, John; Bastu, ErcanBackground: Our aim in this study was to evaluate whether endometrial receptivity assay (ERA) test improves single, autologous euploid frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) outcomes in patients with repeated implantation failure. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study which was conducted in a University affiliated private hospital. The study included 135 patients with repeated implantation failure who underwent single, autologous euploid ERA adjusted and non-adjusted FET. Patients were stratified into three groups, patients with receptive endometrium based on the ERA test, patients with non-receptive endometrium based on the ERA test and patients who did not receive the ERA test (control group). The three groups were compared in terms of FET outcomes. Results: Of 135 patients, 73 had the ERA test results available and 62 did not have the ERA test. Of 73 patients, 28 had non-receptive endometrium and 45 had receptive endometrium. The three groups are all the same in terms of age, body mass index, type of infertility, duration of infertility, number of previously embryo transfers and infertility causes (p > 0.05). Live birth rates were 46\%, 50\% and 51\% for receptive, nonreceptive and control groups, respectively (p > 0.05). Implantation and clinical pregnancy rates were similar between the groups, as well. Conclusions: Adjusting the embryo transfer day according to the ERA test results seems to improve FET outcomes in patients with repeated implantation failure.Item The effect of diagnostic hysteroscopy performed before fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfer in IVF cycles on reproductive outcomes(GALENOS YAYINCILIK, 2021-01-01) Eserol, Fuat; Celik, Hale Goksever; Aytan, Asli Nehir; Celik, Ali; Celik, Engin; Buyru, Faruk; Bastu, ErcanObjective: Hysteroscopy is frequently performed in infertile women and thought to improve pregnancy rates. The data obtained from studies investigating the effect of hysteroscopy in in-vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles is variable. We aimed to evaluate the effect of hysteroscopy on pregnancy outcomes of fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfers (FET) performed during IVF cycles. Material and Methods: The data of the 765 patients, who had IVF treatment between January 2015 and July 2017 in an infertility center, were retrospectively analyzed. Of those, 586 ( 76.6\%) patients underwent fresh embryo transfer, while 179 (23.4\%) patients underwent FET. Hysteroscopy performed by a single experienced surgeon was scheduled two months before transfer. Hysteroscopy was performed in 101/586 (17.2\%) in those undergoing fresh embryo transfer and 44/179 (24.6\%) patients in the FET group. Pregnancy outcomes of the groups were compared respectively within their own group. Results: The mean age was similar in patients in the fresh and FET groups (p=0.365, respectively). There was no difference in the number of transferred embryos between the groups ( p=0.218). In the fresh embryo group there were 246 pregnancies, of which 44 had undergone diagnostic hysteroscopy while 202 had not, (p=0.516) and 79 pregnancies in the FET group, of which 20 had undergone diagnostic hysteroscopy while 59 had not (p=0.711). There was no statistical difference according to pregnancy rate between the groups (p=0.538). Conclusion: Performing diagnostic hysteroscopy before fresh or FET does not improve the pregnancy rates.Item IS AMNIOTIC FLUID ANALYSIS DURING THE SECOND TRIMESTER A PREDICTOR FOR THE DETECTION OF PRETERM LABOR?(ISTANBUL UNIV, FAC MEDICINE, PUBL OFF, 2020-01-01) Kocyigit, Yucel; Celik, Hale Goksever; Simsek, MehmetObjective: Premature activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis due to stress can initiate preterm labor. Many mechanisms have been proposed to explain etiopathogenesis. The most important one is clinical and subclinical chorioamnionitis. We aimed to assess the possibility of early detection and prevention of preterm labor based on second trimester amniotic fluid analysis. Material and Method: One hundred and twenty-five pregnant women with singleton pregnancies who underwent amniocentesis were included. The first 2 cm(3) of the amniotic fluid obtained during the amniocentesis was used for glucose, interleukin-1, interleukin-6, high sensitivity C-reactive protein, electrolytes, progesterone/estrogen analysis, and cell counts. Results: Sixteen women (13.8\%) went into labor prior to 37 weeks of gestation. The mean age of the study population was 33.2 +/- 6.25 years. Ages were similar between the preterm and term groups (36.06 +/- 3.91 vs 32.77 +/- 6.43). Furthermore, the analysis of all parameters in the amniotic fluid did not show any statistical significant difference between the groups. Conclusion: The possible effects of subclinical infection and steroid hormonal changes that are implied in the etiology of preterm labor were investigated in our study, and no evidence was found to support that these factors played a role in the etiology of preterm labor.
