Abstract: Objective

To investigate the related factors of pregnancy outcome after fresh embryo transfer in in-vitro fertilization/intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection(IVF/ICSI),and to provide a reference for making and optimizing the individualized transplantation strategy in chinic.

Methods

The clinical materials of 635 fresh embryo transfer in IVF/ICSI cycles were retrospsectively analyzed. According to the pregnancy outcome, they were divided into clinical pregnancy group (n=354) and non-pregnancy group (n=281). The general data, clinical data and laboratory data of the patients in two groups were collected and univariate analysis was performed. The influencing factors with significant differences and clinical significance were included in multiple Logistic regression analysis.

Results

The univariate analysis results showed that there were 14 indicators with statistically significant differences between clinical pregnancy group and non-pregrancy group(P<0.25). Combined with the clinical significance, 12 indicators were included in the multiple Logistic regression model. The results of multiple multiple Logistic regression analysis showed age of female (P=0.002), number of antral follicle count(AFC) (P=0.031),serum progesterone (P) level on human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG) trigger day (P=0.007),number of useable embryo on Day 3 (P=0.002) and number of transferred embryos (P<0.001) were identified as the independent related factors of pregnancy outcome of fresh embryo transfer following assisted reproductive technology. Compared with the patients aged<35 years old, the patients aged ≥35 years old had a lower pregnancy rate by 45.4% (OR=0.546,OR95%CI:0.370-0.806), the clinical pregnancy rate of the patients with serum P level on hCG trigger day≥1.0 μg·L-1 was 38.1% lower than that of the patients with P level<1.0 μg·L-1(OR=0.619,OR95%CI:0.437-0.877)and the clinical pregnancy rate of two embryos transfer was nearly doubled compared with single embryo transfer (OR=1.947,OR95%CI:1.375-2.757). The clinical pregnancy rates of of the patients with AFC>15 and useable embryos>4 on Day 3 were increased to 48.5% (OR=1.485,OR95%CI:1.036-2.129) and 77.5% (OR=1.775,OR95%CI:1.240-2.541), respectively.

Conclusion

Age of female, AFC, serum P level on hCG trigger day, number of useable embryo on Day 3 and number of transferred embryos are identified as the independent related factors of fresh embryo transfer outcome following assisted reproductive technology. Female aged<35 years old, AFC>15, serum P level on hCG trigger day <1.0 μg·L-1,useable embryos on Day 3>4 and two embryos transfer contribute to improve the clinical pregnancy rate in fresh embryo transfer. It can be appropriately referred when making the transplantation strategy.
