backgrund: imprinted genes are a unique subset of few genes, which have been differentially methylated region (dmr) in a parental origin-dependent manner during gametogenesis, and these genes are highly protected during pre-implantation epigenetic reprogramming. several studies heve shown that the particular vulnerability of imprinting genes during suboptimal pre- and peri-conception microenvir...

background: effect of seasonal changes in human reproduction has been intensively researched. some studies acknowledge influences of seasonal variation on natural conception, while others can not confirm them. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of seasonal changes on different stages of assisted reproductive technology (art) in tehran. materials and methods: this study was carr...

AIM A few cases of psychosis induced by clomiphene citrate have been described so far. However, data on the prevalence of psychotic symptoms among women treated for infertility are inconclusive. Still a little is known about possible psychiatric complications of medications used in assisted reproduction techniques (ART). We present a case of a patient who developed transient psychotic symptoms ...

BACKGROUND Sexually transmitted diseases such as Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) which causes or induces incurable fatal infections have been transmitted through Assisted Reproduction Technology and from infected mothers to the fetus or new born. AIM The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of this chronic viral agent among infertile women recruited for Assisted Reproduction Te...

OBJECTIVE To examine the outcome of assisted reproduction techniques (ART) using cryopreserved semen from patients with cancer. DESIGN Prospective. SETTING Therapeutic semen banking program at a tertiary healthcare center. PATIENT(S) Twenty-nine men with cancer who cryopreserved their sperm before treatment at our facility from 1982 to 2001 and withdrew their samples for assisted reproduc...

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was first to give an overview of the historical development of polarization microscopy, second to describe the various applications of this technique in assisted reproduction techniques (ART) and third to discuss the potential benefit of polarization microscopy as a predictor for IVF success. METHODS The history of polarization microscopy was undertaken by...
