A review of world literature was conducted in the databases Scopus, Web of Science, MedLine, Cochrane CENTRAL, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews (CDSR), Database of Abstracts of Reviews of Effectiveness (DARE), EMBASE, Global Health, CyberLeninka, RSCI on the problem of the effect of combined oral contraceptives (COCs) and hormone therapy during assisted reproductive technologies on the function of the hemostatic system in non-pregnant and pregnant women. The scientific concept of this work is different in that we have summarized and analyzed information on the effect of sex hormones entering the woman’s body from the outside on individual links and the hemostatic system as a whole, determined the relationship between drug administration and thrombotic complications, optimized the sequence of diagnosis of conditions predisposing to thrombosis. The scientific novelty of this work is that we have compared the effects of COCs and hormonal changes during pregnancy on the hemostatic system and found that changes in the hemostatic system in women taking COCs are similar to those that occur during pregnancy.

This world literature review tries to determine the significance of the gamete donation in the field of assisted reproductive technologies as well as the availability of treatment methods using donation in in vitro fertilization programs. Gamete donation is regulated by every country's national legislation system, and quite often the laws vary between the states. There are practically no universal standards and/or rules in this area, which, in turn, leads to an ambivalent reaction towards reproductive practices.

Retinal Pathology

A review of the literature data is presented, which indicates the possible influence of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) on the formation of both systemic and retinal vascular pathology. Despite the fact that the overall incidence of thromboembolic complications as a result of the use of ART is low, nevertheless, in women included in the in vitro fertilization program, their risk increases by 10 times. Therefore, due to the adverse effect of these drugs on the hemostatic system of a woman, ophthalmologists should be more wary of them in order to detect vascular retinal pathology in a timely manner. Key words: assisted reproductive technologies, in vitro fertilization, hyperestrogenism, vascular retinal pathology.

The Relationship

The aim of the study is to systematically analyze the data available in the modern literature on the relationship between endometrial thickness and the frequency of pregnancy in the program of assisted reproductive technologies (ART). Materials and methods. The review includes data from foreign and domestic articles found in PubMed on this topic. Results. The article presents data on the relationship between the thickness of the endometrium and the frequency of pregnancy in ART programs. The greatest number of studies is devoted to the evaluation of the relationship between the thickness of the endometrium and the frequency of pregnancy on the day of the ovulation trigger. Data are presented on the existence of a correlation between the thickness of the endometrium measured on the day of the ovulation trigger and the frequency of clinical pregnancy, as well as data on the need to evaluate the structure of the endometrium and the state of subendometric blood flow. The importance of multilayered (three-layered) endometrium as a prognostic marker of success in in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection programs in the ovum is emphasized. The conclusion. The thickness of the endometrium can not be used as an argument for canceling the cycle or abolishing embryo transfer to the uterine cavity. Further studies in this direction are needed with a study of the morphological and molecular genetic characteristics of the endometrium, which in the future will allow us to evaluate the relationship between the thickness of the endometrium and the probability of pregnancy.

AbstractDevelopment of assisted reproductive technologies to address infertility has favored the birth of many children in the last years. The majority of children born with these treatments are healthy, but some concerns remain on the safety of these medical procedures. We have retrospectively analyzed both the fertilization method and the microarray results in all those children born between 2010 and 2019 with multiple congenital anomalies, developmental delay and/or autistic spectrum disorder (n = 486) referred for array study in our center. This analysis showed a significant excess of pathogenic copy number variants among those patients conceived after in vitro fertilization with donor oocyte with respect to those patients conceived by natural fertilization (p = 0.0001). On the other hand, no significant excess of pathogenic copy number variants was observed among patients born by autologous oocyte in vitro fertilization. Further studies are necessary to confirm these results and in order to identify the factors that may contribute to an increased risk of genomic rearrangements, as well as consider the screening for genomic alterations after oocyte donation in prenatal diagnosis.

Retrieving spermatozoa from the testicles has been a great hope for patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA), but relevant methods have not yet been developed to the level necessary to provide resolutions for all cases of NOA. Although performing testicular sperm extraction under microscopic magnification has increased sperm retrieval rates, in vitro selection and processing of quality sperm plays an essential role in the success of in vitro fertilization. Moreover, sperm cryopreservation is widely used in assisted reproductive technologies, whether for therapeutic purposes or for future fertility preservation. In recent years, there have been new developments using advanced technologies to freeze and preserve even very small numbers of sperm for which conventional techniques are inadequate. The present review provides an up-to-date summary of current strategies for maximizing sperm recovery from surgically obtained testicular samples and, as an extension, optimization of in vitro sperm processing techniques in the management of NOA.

The objective: to study the structure and frequency of complications of pregnancy, deliveries and perinatal outcomes in three groups of women: women with infertility and obesity, treated by application of in vitro fertilization (hereinafter IVF), pregnant women after IVF application with normal body weight, and pregnant women on the background of obesity which did not have an infertility in past history. Materials and methods. A retrospective analysis of 221 case histories of pregnancies and labors in women who were treated and gave birth in the Pregnancy and delivery pathology Department of SI «Institute of Pediatrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology named after Acad. O. M. Lukyanova of NAMS of Ukraine» for 2012 – 2016 years was carried out. Results. The overwhelming majority of pregnant women after IVF on the background of obesity are primaparas, who have a complicated obstetric history, hormonal changes in the form of progesterone deficiency predominantly and chronic inflammatory processes. Pregnancy with a combination of infertility, treated by the means of IVF application, and obesity, in most cases is accompanied by a long-term threat of termination of pregnancy (48.8%), threatening preterm deliveries (56%), placental dysfunction (41.5%), premature rupture of the amniotic membranes (41.5%), other problems during pregnancy, at the same time, every second woman (58.5%) had a combination of several complications, and required a long-term and repeated inpatient treatment (53.7%). The specific gravity of surgical delivery was 90%, and 16.2% of such deliveries were complicated by pathological blood loss. The number of preterm deliveries was 17.1%, with perinatal losses up to 11.3‰. Among full-term newborns 21.3% of newborns had malnutrition of the I degree and 17% of them had hypoxic-ischemic lesion of CNS. Conclusion. The course of pregnancy, delivery and the postpartum period in the studied contingent of women has a significant frequency of complications, mainly the coinciding ones, which affects on the consequences of perinatal outcomes and requires further study of this problem and the development of differentiated algorithms for antenatal observation. Key words: pregnancy, obesity, in vitro fertilization, complications, delivery, newborn.

Assisted reproductive technologies are of great importance for increasing genetic diversity in captive animals without displacing them. The development and improvement of these techniques require accurate methods to assess sperm function. The ability of the sperm to bind the zona pellucida and the formation of a male pronucleus have been shown to have a high predictive value for fertilization outcome. The use of zona-intact bovine in vitro–matured oocytes in heterologous fertilization with dolphin spermatozoa could provide valuable information on its fertilizing ability. The aim of the present study was to evaluate male pronuclear formation in zona-intact bovine oocytes after coincubation with frozen-thawed bottlenose dolphin spermatozoa. A total of 1546 immature cumulus oocytes complexes (COC) were obtained from bovine ovaries collected at slaughter. The COC were matured for 24 h in TCM-199 supplemented with 10 ng mL–1 of epidermal growth factor and 10% FCS. Matured COC were inseminated with frozen-thawed Bovi-pure (Nidacon International, Mölndal, Sweden) separated bovine (control) or dolphin spermatozoa. At 18, 20, 22, 24, 26 and 28 h post-insemination (hpi), half of the presumptive zygotes from each group were fixed and stained with Hoechst 33342 to examine sperm penetration, polyspermy and pronuclear formation and the remainder were cultured in synthetic oviduct fluid supplemented with 5% FCS for evaluating fertilization rates by cleavage on Days 2 and 4 (Day 0 = day of IVF). As expected, in the control a higher percentage of 2 pronuclear formation was observed at 18 hpi (74.5%), with a decrease at 20 and 22 hpi (57.4 and 43.2%, respectively) and was significantly lower (P ≤ 0.001) at 24 hpi (13.3%), reaching the lowest values at 26 and 28 hpi. However, in the heterologous group significantly less oocytes with both pronuclear formed (P ≤ 0.001) were observed at 18, 20 and 22 hpi (1.2, 3.4 and 3.0%, respectively) compared with 24, 26 and 28 hpi (22.5, 11.4 and 8.9%, respectively). No polyspermy was detected in oocytes coincubated with dolphin spermatozoa. Moreover, the cleavage rate at Day 2 and 4 in heterologous fertilization was 13.0 and 34.8%, respectively, whereas for the control it was 90.0%. In conclusion, these results indicate that dolphin spermatozoa can penetrate bovine oocytes and induce the block to polyspermy and the differences found regarding pronuclear formation times between the 2 species could be due to distinct sperm chromatin organisation or condensation. In conclusion, our preliminary results show that heterologous fertilization using bovine oocytes is useful for characterising the viability of dolphin thawed spermatozoa, which also could be helpful in performing a more complete sperm evaluation. Further studies are necessary to provide more consistent evidence of the efficiency of this test.
