    Psychological domain of quality of life, depression and anxiety levels inin vitrofertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles of women with endometriosis: a prospective stud
    (2020) Ceran, M. U.; Yilmaz, N.; Ugurlu, E. N.; Erkal, N.; Ozgu-Erdinc, A. S.; Tasci, Y.; Gulerman, H. C.; Engin-Ustun, Y.; 0000-0003-1923-2373; 32635772
    Objective To evaluate the psychological domain of quality of life (PDQoL), anxiety and depression levels of infertile women with endometriosis versus non endometriosis who applied for Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART). Method This prospective case-control study compromised a total of 105 women who applied for IVF/ICSI program. Ninety-three women were divided into two groups as endometriosis (n = 37) and non-endometriosis (n = 56) after 12 patients who refused to participate in the study were excluded. The WHOQOL-BREF questionnaire, Beck Depression and Anxiety Inventory scales were used to determine the psychological stress levels. Results A significant difference was found between the endometriosis and non-endometriosis groups regarding depression scores, while no significant difference was reported with respect to PDQoL and anxiety (p < 0.01,p = 0.897 andp = 0.058, respectively). A weak but significant correlation was observed between depression and endometriosis (CC: 0.435,p < 0.01). Though anxiety scores were found to be higher in endometriosis group this can not reach statistical significance (p = 0.058). Impact of PDQoL, depression and anxiety scores on pregnancy outcomes were found to be insignificant. Conclusion Women with endometriosis seem to be more susceptible to depression and anxiety than women without endometriosis. Although infertility treatment outcomes are not found to be significantly affected, the impact of depression and anxiety over ART treatment success merit further research.

    GnRH agonist versus HCG triggering in different IVF/ICSI cycles of same patients: a retrospective study
    (2019) Yilmaz, Nafiye; Ceran, Mehmet Ufuk; Ugurlu, Evin Nil; Gulerman, Hacer Cavidan; Engin Ustun, Yaprak; 0000-0003-1923-2373; 31791167
    The aim of this study was to assess Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone agonist (GnRHa) trigger results of fresh in vitro fertilisation (IVF), Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) cycles in high-responder patients. Thirty-six high-responder patients, undergoing GnRH antagonist protocol combined with GnRHa trigger for final oocyte maturation, were included. All cycles were autologous fresh transfer cycles. Fifteen of 36 patients had previous IVF/ICSI cycles triggered with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and both cycles of these patients were compared. The mean fertilisation rate, blastocyst development and clinical pregnancy rates were 67%, 44.4% and 44.4%, respectively. The hCG and GnRHa trigger cycles of the same patients were compared as two groups (n: 15). 2PN oocyte counts were significantly higher in agonist trigger cycles (p .048). There were no differences in terms of M2 oocyte count and fertilisation rate. The blastocyst formation and clinical pregnancy rates for hCG and GnRHa trigger cycles were 33.3-66.7% and 13.3-46.7%, respectively. These results were found to be 2-fold and 3.5-fold higher, but not statistically significant. GnRHa trigger in combination with LPS is a good option for final oocyte maturation due to its good pregnancy outcomes and virtually eliminating OHSS risks.IMPACT STATEMENT What is already known on this subject? Gonadotrophin releasing hormone agonist (GnRHa) trigger is effective in the induction of oocyte maturation and prevention of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) on IVF cycles using antagonist protocol. What do the results of this study add? The main strength of this study is the comparison of different triggers in different cycles of the same patients. GnRHa trigger in combination with Luteal Phase Support (LPS) is a good option for final oocyte maturation due to its good pregnancy outcomes and virtually eliminating OHSS risks.
