Abstract
Background
To describe and conclude the in vitro fertilization (IVF) results of patients with X chromosome abnormality.
Methods
A retrospective case series was conducted. According to the number of normal X, patients were allocated into two groups: Group A (patients with only a normal X, while other X has any types of abnormalities) and Group B (patients have two or more normal X chromosomes). Clinical data, including basic information, fertility information, and IVF outcomes, were collected.
Results
Fourteen patients with X chromosome abnormality were included, among which 13 patients underwent a total of 29 cycles. Patients in Group B had five successful pregnancies and three live births, while no patient in Group A had a clinical pregnancy. Furthermore, the blastocyst formation rate and incidence of pregnancy were significantly lower in Group A (Z = −3.135, p = .002; Z = −2.946, p = .003, respectively). When controlled covariates, the karyotype of one normal X was also a risk factor for both blastocyst formation rate and success pregnancy (β = .820, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.458–1.116, β = .333, 95% CI = 0.017–0.494, respectively).
Conclusions
Our results revealed that women with only one normal X might suffer from worse IVF outcomes, mainly blastocyst formation rate, compared with those who had two or more normal X, including mosaic Turner syndrome and 47,XXX.
期刊介绍:
The journal Birth Defects Research publishes original research and reviews in areas related to the etiology of adverse developmental and reproductive outcome. In particular the journal is devoted to the publication of original scientific research that contributes to the understanding of the biology of embryonic development and the prenatal causative factors and mechanisms leading to adverse pregnancy outcomes, namely structural and functional birth defects, pregnancy loss, postnatal functional defects in the human population, and to the identification of prenatal factors and biological mechanisms that reduce these risks.
Adverse reproductive and developmental outcomes may have genetic, environmental, nutritional or epigenetic causes. Accordingly, the journal Birth Defects Research takes an integrated, multidisciplinary approach in its organization and publication strategy. The journal Birth Defects Research contains separate sections for clinical and molecular teratology, developmental and reproductive toxicology, and reviews in developmental biology to acknowledge and accommodate the integrative nature of research in this field. Each section has a dedicated editor who is a leader in his/her field and who has full editorial authority in his/her area.
