The effect of paternal age on intracytoplasmic sperm injection outcome in unexplained infertility

Arab Journal of Urology

Objective: : To examine the effect of paternal age on intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) outcomes in unexplained infertility Subjects and Methods: : This retrospective study, done at the Hamad Medical Corporation, Doha, Qatar screened infertile couples who underwent ICSI between 2014 and 2019 for the inclusion and exclusion criteria defining 'unexplained infertility'. Couples recruited were allocated into two groups: Group A (paternal age <35 years) and Group B (paternal age ≥35 years). Baseline characteristics, investigations including semen and advanced sperm function tests and ICSI records were compared for primary outcomes such as fertilisation, cleavage, clinical pregnancy, miscarriage and live birth; and secondary outcomes such as semen parameters and advanced sperm functions (DNA fragmentation index and oxidation reduction potential). Results: : We found that final pregnancy outcomes including clinical pregnancy rate (P = 0.231), live-birth rate (P = 0.143), and miscarriage rates (P = 0.466) were not significantly different between the two age groups. Normal fertilisation (P = 0.01) and cleavage rate after ICSI (P = 0.001) were statistically significant when the age groups were compared. Also, normal sperm morphology was found to be significantly different (P = 0.041). Conclusions: : Advanced paternal age affects sperm morphology, fertilisation and embryo cleavage in ICSI but does not appear to affect clinical pregnancy, miscarriage or live-birth rates. ICSI appears to be a valid fertility treatment option in advancing paternal age.

Effect of parental age on fertilization and pregnancy characteristics in couples treated by intracytoplasmic sperm injection

1998

The purpose of this study was to investigate any influence of maternal and/or paternal age on gamete characteristics and pregnancy outcomes in intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles. In all, 821 consecutive ICSI cases were analysed retrospectively. While a significant linear decline in semen volume was detected, no significant differences in the concentration, motility or morphology of the spermatozoa were found with paternal ageing. A significant decline in the number of oocytes retrieved and the number of mature oocytes obtained was found with advancing maternal age. An increase in the occurrence of digyny was noted with parental ageing, while no difference in single or bipronuclear fertilization was found. Older women had a decreased incidence of single pronucleus formation and an increase in digyny, but no significant difference in the percentage of oocytes that underwent two-pronuclear fertilization was detected with regard to maternal ageing. Pregnancy outcomes were not influenced by the age of the male partner, while a strong negative correlation was found with maternal ageing. To better analyse male partner ageing as a factor affecting pregnancy outcome, we analysed a subgroup of patients with a female partner aged <35 years who underwent ICSI. No paternal influence on ICSI pregnancy outcome was found in this subgroup of patients. We conclude that the influence on pregnancy outcome after ICSI is related mostly to maternal and not paternal age.

Ovulasyon indüksiyonu ve intrauterin inseminasyon sonrası infertil kadınlarda gebelik hızlarının değerlendirilmesi

Cukurova Medical Journal, 2020

Öz Purpose: The aim of this studywas to investigate the effects of these factors on pregnancy rates in infertile patients following ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination. Materials and Methods: The study was performed retrospectively that investigated examination reports and laboratory results of 201 infertile patients with unexplained infertility, male factor and anovulation. Women were subdivided into two groups according to the ovarystimulating agent used as gonadotropin or clomiphene citrate. A semen sample was obtained from all men participants. Results: There were 239 cycles of unexplained infertility (77.9%), 39 cycles in ovulatory dysfunction (12.7%) and 29 cycles in male factor (9.4%) groups. The clinical pregnancy rates per cycle according to infertility type were found as 18.4% (n:44) for unexplained infertility, 17.9% (n:7) for ovulatory dysfunction and 13.8% (n:4) for malefactor. In regression analyses, follicle (diameter>10mm) count on the day of hCG administration and inseminated total motile sperm count (ITMSC) were independently affected pregnancy rate. ITMSC area value under the curve (0.63) was significantly different from 0.5. Conclusion: Follicle count on the day of hCG administration and ITMSC independently affect the pregnancy rate. Additionally, the intrauterine insemination method should be attempted in appropriate cases that have an acceptable successful pregnancy rate.

Analysis of 2,386 consecutive cycles of in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection using autologous oocytes in women aged 40 years and above

Fertility and Sterility, 2010

Objective: To estimate the live-birth and miscarriage rates in 1-year age increments for women aged R40 years undergoing in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI-IVF) with autologous oocytes. Design: Retrospective database and chart analysis. Setting: Egyptian IVF and embryo transfer center. Patient(s): 1645 women aged R40 years undergoing 2004 fresh nondonor IVF-ICSI cycles. Intervention(s): ICSI-IVF using ejaculate or surgically retrieved sperm. Main Outcome Measure(s): Pregnancy and live-birth rates per initiated cycle based on 1-year age increments. Result(s): The overall live-birth rate per initiated cycle was 6.7% (range: 10% to 0.5%). The pregnancy loss rate was 44.8% (range: 39.0% to 75.0%). The cutoff age was 43 years, when the pregnancy rate became statistically significantly lower. The live-birth rate per initiated cycle was statistically significantly higher for women <43 years old, 132 out of 1766 (7.4%) compared with women R43 years old, 7 out of 620 (1.1%). The miscarriage rate was 127 out of 295 (43.1%) compared with 15 out of 23 (65.2%) for the two age groups, respectively. Conclusion(s): The success rate of ICSI-IVF as measured by live-birth rate per initiated cycle was statistically significantly higher for women aged <43 years as compared with women aged R43 years. Once women have attained age 43 years, alternative methods such as oocyte donation cycles or previously cryopreserved embryos are likely to be more effective. (Fertil Steril Ò 2009;-:---.

Intracytoplasmic sperm injection and advanced maternal age: Success or treatment failure?

Pakistan journal of pharmaceutical sciences, 2019

Infertility rate documented in Pakistan is 21.9% with only 25% success rate even after procedures like intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). This rate is further on the decline with enhancement of female age. We aimed to observe the effect of female age on oocyte parameters and reproductive outcome after ICSI. It was done by retrospective analysis of a quasi- experimental design carried out after approval from "Ethical review board of Islamabad clinic serving infertile couples" from July 2010 to August 2011. The response to ovarian stimulation in (282) females was assessed on the basis of groups, A, B, C and D with age ranges up to 25years; 25.1 to 30years; 30.1 to 35years and >35years, respectively. The outcome was assessed as non-pregnant, preclinical abortion and clinical pregnancy groups on the basis of beta hCG and cardiac activity by trans-vaginal scan. We observed that maximum number of pregnancies 32 (38%) occurred in C group, and least 10 (10%) in group A. T...

Maternal age and intracytoplasmic sperm injection outcome in infertile couples at Khartoum, Sudan

F1000Research, 2015

BackgroundIntracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) was considered as the mainstay of treatment for male infertility. Nowadays, the scope of ICSI has been widened to include other causes of infertility. There are few published data on ICSI in countries with low incomes.AimsA cross-sectional study was conducted at Saad AbuAlla and Banoun Centers, Khartoum, Sudan to investigate outcomes of ICSI and to determine the parameters that might predict pregnancy success rate following ICSI.MethodsThe study included 191 infertile couples who underwent 296 ICSI cycles between 1st April 2013 and 31 March 2014.ResultsOne hundred and ninety one couples (comprising 296 cycles of ICSI) were enrolled to the study. The mean (SD) number of retrieved oocytes was 9.7 (7.5). The mean (SD) number of transferred embryos was 2.9 (1.0). Out of these, 50 (26.2%) and 40 (20.9%) had chemical and clinical pregnancy, respectively. Thirty–six couples (18.8%) and five couples (2.6%) had miscarriage and had ectopic pr...

İn Vitro Fertilizasyon Olgularında Serım Ve Folliküler Sıvı Total Oksidan Ve Antioksidan Seviyelerinin Incelenmesi

Zeynep Kamil tıp bülteni, 2018

Objective: To assess the effects of serum and follicular fluid total oxidant (TOC) levels, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), and oxidative stress index (OSI) on oocyte maturation, fertilization, embryogenesis, and clinical pregnancy outcomes in In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) cycles of infertile patients. Material and Methods: One hundred patients having infertility and underwent ART enrolled the study group and blood samples were collected on gonadotropin starting, oocyte pickup (OPU) and embryo transfer (ET) days. Additionally, follicular fluid specimen obtained during OPU was collected. TOC, TAC levels and OSI in serum samples and follicular fluid specimens between clinically pregnant and non-pregnant patients were compared. Results: No significant difference was noted between clinically pregnant and nonpregnant patients in terms of the woman's age, duration of infertility, ovarian reserve or number of transferred embryos. There was also no significant difference in TAC, TOC and OSI levels in serum samples obtained during three phases of treatment cycle (basal gonadotropin starting day, OPU day and ET day) and in follicular fluid samples. Conclusion: TAC, TOC and OSI seem to be ineffective to predict clinical pregnancy as an outcome in patients who underwent ART.

Intrauterine insemination: evaluation of the results according to the woman's age, sperm quality, total sperm count per insemination and life table analysis

Human Reproduction, 1996

We report on 332 infertile couples who underwent 1115 cycles of intrauterine insemination (IUI) with washed husband's semen. The indication for IUI was an abnormal post-coital test due to either a male or cervical infertility factor. The mean number of IUI cycles per patient was 3.4, the overall pregnancy rate 18.7%, and the pregnancy rate per cycle 5.6%. The cumulative pregnancy rate calculated by life table analysis showed that 16.0% of pregnancies occurred in the first three treatment cycles, while the cumulative pregnancy rate was 26.9% by the sixth cycle. The outcome of the therapy was adversely affected if the woman's age was >39 years and/or total motile sperm count per insemination was <1X1O*. No pregnancy occurred in women older than 44 years or in cases with a total motile sperm count before semen preparation of <1X1O*.

Fertilization and early embryology: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection does not overcome an oocyte defect in previous fertilization failure with conventional in-vitro fertilization and normal spermatozoa

Human Reproduction, 1996

A cohort comprising a total of 447 oocyte aspirations due to male factors (« = 258) or to previous fertilization failure by IVF in the presence of normal sperm parameters (n = 189) was studied. We found a significantly reduced implantation and pregnancy rate per transfer in the group with previously failed IVF attempts compared to the male factor group (P < 0.001). No differences were found in age, number of oocytes retrieved, number of embryos transferred or quality of embryos scored at the time of transfer. However, the fertilization and cleavage rates were found to be reduced in the group with previous failed IVF cycles. It is therefore concluded that previous fertilization failure despite normal sperm parameters in an IVF cycle may not be alleviated by the intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) procedure. These patients might suffer from oocyte defects as well.
