Abstract BackgroundThe outcome of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer is often determined according to follicles and estradiol levels following gonadotropin stimulation. However, there is no accurate indicator to predict pregnancy outcome, and it has not been determined how to choose subsequent drugs and dosage based on the ovarian response. This study aimed to make timely adjustments to follow-up medication to improve clinical outcomes based on the potential value of estradiol growth rate. MethodsSerum estradiol levels were measured on the day of gonadotrophin treatment (Gn0), four days later (Gn4), seven days later (Gn7), and on the trigger day (HCG). The ratio was used to determine the increase in estradiol levels. According to the ratio of estradiol increase, the patients were divided into four groups: group A1 (Gn4/Gn0≤6.44), group A2 (6.44˂Gn4/Gn0≤10.62), group A3 (10.62˂Gn4/Gn0 ≤21.33), and group A4 (Gn4/Gn0>21.33); group B1 (Gn7/Gn4≤2.39), group B2 (2.39˂Gn7/Gn4≤3.03), group B3 (3.03˂Gn7/Gn4≤3.84), and group B4 (Gn7/Gn4>3.84). We analyzed and compared the relationship between data in each group and pregnancy outcome. ResultsIn the statistical analysis, the estradiol levels of Gn4 (P = 0.029, P = 0.042), Gn7 (P< 0.001, P = 0.001), and HCG (P< 0.001, P = 0.002), as well as the ratios of Gn4/Gn0 (P = 0.004, P = 0.006), Gn7/Gn4 (P = 0.001, P = 0.002), and HCG/Gn0 (P< 0.001, P< 0.001) both had clinical guiding significance, and the lower one significantly reduced the pregnancy rate. The outcomes were positively linked to groups A (P = 0.040, P = 0.041) and B (P = 0.015, P = 0.017). The logistical regression analysis revealed that group A1 (OR = 0.440 [0.223–0.865]; P = 0.017, OR = 0.368 [0.169–0.804]; P = 0.012) and B1 (OR = 0.261 [0.126–0.541]; P< 0.001, OR = 0.299 [0.142–0.629]; P = 0.001) had opposite influence on outcomes. ConclusionMaintaining a serum estradiol increase ratio at least above 2.39 on Gn7/Gn4 may result in a higher pregnancy rate. When estradiol growth is not ideal, gonadotrophin dosage should be adjusted appropriately to ensure the desired outcome.

Embryo transfer is a critical final step in the in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle. Much attention has been paid to standardizing the procedures of embryo transfer to improve pregnancy outcome. Objective. To identify the impact of embryo thawing-loading interval (the time interval passing from thawing to loading of frozen embryo into the catheter) on pregnancy outcome. Results. The study was divided into quartiles according to thawing-loading interval in minutes (G I: <60; G II: 60–119; G III: 120–239; G IV: 240 and above). Numerical variables are presented as median and interquartile range, and inter-group differences are compared using the Mann-Whitney U test. Categorical variables are presented as numbers and percentages, and differences are compared using the chi-square test for trend. After adjustment for the age of women, time of previous failed ICSI (Intracytoplasmic sperm injection) trials, number and maturity of transferred embryos, a thawing-loading interval between 60–119 minutes (adjusted odds ratio = 2.222, 95% CI = 1.370 to 3.603, p-value = 0.001) or between 120–239 minutes (adjusted odds ratio = 1.924, 95% CI = 1.172 to 3.161, p-value = 0.010) was independently associated with increased probability of clinical pregnancy compared with a thawing-loading interval of <60 minutes. On the other hand, a thawing-loading interval of ≥240 minutes significantly decreased the probability of clinical pregnancy (adjusted odds ratio = 0.378, 95% CI 0.215 to 0.664, p-value = 0.001). Conclusion. After adjusting for potential confounders, this analysis found that a thawing-loading interval between 60–239 minutes was independently associated with better pregnancy outcomes compared with a thawing-loading interval of <60 minutes. On the other hand, a thawing-loading interval of ≥240 minutes was significantly associated with a worse outcome.
