Effects of three pro-nuclei (3PN) incidence on laboratory and clinical outcomes after early rescue intracytoplasmic sperm injection (rescue-ICSI): an analysis of a 5-year period

摘要

Objectives: We aimed to explore the effect of three pro-nuclei (3PN) incidence on laboratory and clinical outcomes after early rescue intracytoplasmic sperm injection (rescue-ICSI). Methods: This study included 509 early rescue-ICSI cycles from February 2014 to February 2019. The patients were divided into 3PN = 0% (394 cycles) and 3PN > 0% (115 cycles) group. Main outcomes compared were good quality embryo, available embryo, implantation (IR), clinical pregnancy (CPR), abortion (AR) and live birth rates (LBR). Results: There were no significant differences in the basal characteristics between two groups (p > .05). We observed that 3PN = 0% and 3PN > 0% groups had similar good quality embryo (47.02 versus 46.80%; p = .917) and available embryo (83.28 versus 81.37%; p = .247) rates. Our results showed that the IR (47.26 versus 51.05%; p = .357), CPR (61.17 versus 66.08%; p = .338) and LBR (52.80 versus 50.43%; p = .656) were comparable between 3PN = 0% and 3PN > 0% groups. The 3PN = 0% group showed significantly lower AR than that in the 3PN > 0% group (11.20 versus 21.05%; p = .029; OR 2.114; 95% CI 1.069-4.178). Conclusions: 3PN incidence made negative effects on the clinical outcomes after early rescue-ICSI.
