Regression Toward the Mean01:52

Regression Toward the Mean

6.6K
Regression toward the mean (“RTM”) is a phenomenon in which extremely high or low values—for example, and individual’s blood pressure at a particular moment—appear closer to a group’s average upon remeasuring. Although this statistical peculiarity is the result of random error and chance, it has been problematic across various medical, scientific, financial and psychological applications. In particular, RTM, if not taken into account, can interfere when...

In Vitro Fertilization01:24

In Vitro Fertilization

572
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a form of assisted reproductive technology where an egg is fertilized with sperm in a controlled laboratory environment before transferring the resulting embryo into the uterus. This process is designed to help individuals and couples experiencing difficulties conceiving.
The IVF process begins with ovarian stimulation, during which reproductive endocrinologists prescribe hormonal medications to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs instead of the single...

Teratogenicity01:07

Teratogenicity

3.2K
The ability of a drug to produce structural deformations and functional abnormalities in the developing embryo or the fetus is called teratogenicity, and the drug producing this effect is known as a teratogen. Teratogenic effects include stillbirth, miscarriage, intrauterine growth restriction, and neurocognitive delay. A teratogen may affect the embryo at different stages of development, which is important in determining the type and extent of the damage. During blastocyst formation, the early...

Summary

Assisted reproductive technology (ART) use correlates with lower perinatal mortality rates, especially before 28 weeks gestation. This finding aids in counseling patients undergoing ART treatments.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Health
  • Perinatal Epidemiology
  • Assisted Reproductive Technology

Background:

  • Perinatal mortality remains a significant concern in obstetrics.
  • Understanding factors influencing perinatal deaths, including conception method, is crucial for improving outcomes.
  • Assisted reproductive technology (ART) is increasingly utilized for infertility treatment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare trends and characteristics of perinatal deaths between ART and non-ART conceptions.
  • To evaluate the association between method of conception (ART vs. non-ART) and perinatal mortality.
  • To analyze ART and non-ART perinatal mortality in specific US states from 2006-2011.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective cohort study design.
  • Utilized linked ART surveillance and vital records data.
  • Included data from Florida, Massachusetts, and Michigan (2006-2011).

Main Results:

  • ART perinatal mortality rates were lower than non-ART rates for both singletons (7.0/1,000 vs. 10.2/1,000) and multiples (22.8/1,000 vs. 41.2/1,000).
  • ART use was associated with significantly lower risk of perinatal death before 28 weeks gestation for both singletons (aRR=0.46) and multiples (aRR=0.64).
  • Identified 570 ART-conceived and 25,158 non-ART-conceived perinatal deaths.

Conclusions:

  • ART use is linked to a reduced risk of perinatal death prior to 28 weeks gestation.
  • Potential explanations include earlier detection and management of complications in ART-conceived pregnancies.
  • Findings offer valuable counseling information for healthcare providers and ART users regarding treatment risks.
