Abstract
Introduction: The present study aims to identify the factors contributing to diminished successful cumulative live birth rate (LBR) of in-vitro fertilisation-intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF-ICSI) among patients with endometriosis.
Materials and methods: In this study, a retrospective cohort investigation was conducted from January 2016 to December 2022 at the Reproductive Medicine Center, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Sultanah Bahiyah Hospital, Alor Setar, Malaysia. Various determinants influencing substandard cumulative IVF-ICSI LBR prognosis in women diagnosed with endometriosis were analysed. A total of 157 patients, representing 214 IVF-ICSI cycles and 231 embryo transfers, were involved in the current study. The cumulative LBR per cycle was the primary outcome established.
Results: The present study recorded 25.7% (n=55) cumulative LBR per cycle. Prolonged infertility (95% confidence intervals, 95%CI: 0.33, 0.86, p=0.009), moderate to severe endometriosis (95%CI: 0.001, 0.39, p=0.009), and adenomyosis (95%CI: 0.013, 0.98, p=0.048) were factors that significantly reduced the cumulative LBR.
Conclusion: A prolonged infertility duration, the presence of adenomyosis, and moderate to severe endometriosis negatively impacted the cumulative LBR in IVF-ICSI treatments for women with endometriosis. Consequently, early aggressive infertility treatments for patients diagnosed with endometriosis are recommended.
期刊介绍:
Published since 1890 this journal originated as the Journal of the Straits Medical Association. With the formation of the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA), the Journal became the official organ, supervised by an editorial board. Some of the early Hon. Editors were Mr. H.M. McGladdery (1960 - 1964), Dr. A.A. Sandosham (1965 - 1977), Prof. Paul C.Y. Chen (1977 - 1987). It is a scientific journal, published quarterly and can be found in medical libraries in many parts of the world. The Journal also enjoys the status of being listed in the Index Medicus, the internationally accepted reference index of medical journals. The editorial columns often reflect the Association''s views and attitudes towards medical problems in the country. The MJM aims to be a peer reviewed scientific journal of the highest quality. We want to ensure that whatever data is published is true and any opinion expressed important to medical science. We believe being Malaysian is our unique niche; our priority will be for scientific knowledge about diseases found in Malaysia and for the practice of medicine in Malaysia. The MJM will archive knowledge about the changing pattern of human diseases and our endeavours to overcome them. It will also document how medicine develops as a profession in the nation. We will communicate and co-operate with other scientific journals in Malaysia. We seek articles that are of educational value to doctors. We will consider all unsolicited articles submitted to the journal and will commission distinguished Malaysians to write relevant review articles. We want to help doctors make better decisions and be good at judging the value of scientific data. We want to help doctors write better, to be articulate and precise.
