Endometriosis, Ovarian Reserve and Live Birth Rate Following In Vitro Fertiliza...
Coelho Neto,Marcela Alencar; Martins,Wellington de Paula; Luz,Caroline Mantovani da; Jianini,Bruna Talita Gazeto Melo; Ferriani,Rui AlbertoAbstract Purpose To evaluate whether women with endometriosis have different ovarian reserves and reproductive outcomes when compared with women without this diagnosis undergoing in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection ( IVF/ ICSI), and to compare the reproductive outcomes between women with and without the diagnosis considering the ovarian reserve assessed by antral follicle count ( AFC ). Meth...
Neurological Outcome in Fetuses with Mild and Moderate Ventriculomegaly
Tonni,Gabriele; Vito,Ida; Palmisano,Marcella; Martins,Wellington de Paula; Araujo Júnior,EdwardAbstract Introduction Ventriculomegaly (VM) is one the most frequent anomalies detected on prenatal ultrasound. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may enhance diagnostic accuracy and prediction of developmental outcome in newborns. Purpose The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between ultrasound and MRI in fetuses with isolated mild and moderate VM. The secondary aim was to report the neurodevelopme...
Association between Number of Formed Embryos, Embryo Morphology and Clinical Pr...
Luz,Caroline Mantovani da; Giorgi,Vanessa Silvestre Innocenti; Coelho Neto,Marcela Alencar; Martins,Wellington de Paula; Ferriani,Rui AlbertoAbstract Introduction Infertility has a high prevalence in the general population, affecting 5 to 15% of couples in reproductive age. The assisted reproduction techniques ( ART ) include in vitro manipulation of gametes and embryos and are an important treatment indicated to these couples. It is well accepted that the implantation rate is positively influenced by the morphology of transferred embryos. However, ...
Subclinical Hypothyroidism and Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection Outcomes
Coelho Neto,Marcela de Alencar; Martins,Wellington de Paula; Melo,Anderson Sanches de; Ferriani,Rui Alberto; Navarro,Paula AndreaAbstract Purpose Whether preconception elevated concentrations of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) compromises reproductive outcomes in patients undergoing assisted reproduction techniques (ARTs) remains unclear. This study therefore compared the reproductive outcomes in patients with TSH concentrations of < 2.5 mIU/L, 2.5-4.0 mIU/L, and 4.0-10.0mIU/L undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) for in vitr...
Ultrasound scan as a potential source of nosocomial and cross-infection: a lite...
Miyague,André Hadyme; Mauad,Fernando Marum; Martins,Wellington de Paula; Benedetti,Augusto César Garcia; Ferreira,Ana Elizabeth Gomes de Melo TavaresAbstractThe authors review the main concepts regarding the importance of cleaning/disinfection of ultrasonography probes, aiming a better comprehension by practitioners and thus enabling strategies to establish a safe practice without compromising the quality of the examination and the operator productivity. In the context of biosafety, it is imperative to assume that contact with blood or body fluids represent...
