A prospective, randomized trial on the effect of atmospheric versus reduced oxygen concentration on the outcome of ICSI cycles.

Conclusion(s): The use of reduced oxygen in IVF is reasonable, irrespective of the duration of embryo culture. It improves embryo development and cumulative PR and is also recommended in poor responding cycles.

Sperm morphological abnormalities as indicators of DNA fragmentation and fertilization in ICSI.

Conclusions. Head abnormalities, especially amorphous heads, are related to elevated degree of DNA fragmentation. Elongated heads, when detected as predominant abnormal form in sperm samples, may affect fertilization in ICSI.

Experimental model and immunohistochemical comparison of U87 human glioblastoma cell xenografts.

In the article we compared the immunohistochemical characteristics of two animal glioma models – the implantation of U87 human glioblastoma cells into chick chorioallantoic membrane and into rat brains. Brain tumour sections were examined for various known tumour markers.

An observational study of assisted reproductive technology outcomes in new EU states: an overview of protocols used for ovarian stimulation.

This study represents the most comprehensive audit of individualized ART in clinical practice in Central and Eastern Europe. Overall, clinical pregnancy was achieved by 39.5% of patients after stimulation with follitropin alfa. The use of follitropin alfa FbM resulted in a higher cumulative pregnancy rate than did the FbIU formulation. However, limitations of the study include the observational and non-comparative study design, and descriptive nature of statistical analyses.

DVORŠAK-ERKER, Andreja, GREGORIČ, Alojz. Sonographic measurements of renal size in slovenian population of children.

Conclusions: We believe that our tables with normal values of kidney length and volume will provide a useful references for kidney evaluation by ultrasonography in children. We suggest correlation with body height for the kidney length and correlation with body weight for the kidney volume evaluation.
