Understanding the ethical concerns that have shaped European regulation of human embryonic stem cell research [PDF]

, 2012
Human embryonic stem cell research has generated much hope, but also fear and repulsion. National legislators, as well as the European Parliament, the European Patent Office and the European Court of Justice have had to make decisions relating to what is

Comparison of the effectiveness and pregnancy outcomes of the “incise and suture” versus “fold and suture” methods in hysteroscopic‐assisted laparoscopic treatment of previous cesarean scar defect: A retrospective cohort study

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of the hysteroscopic‐assisted laparoscopic incised‐suture versus folded‐suture methods at the cesarean incision site for the treatment of previous cesarean scar defects (PCSD) and to evaluate pregnancy outcomes.

Inferring simple but precise quantitative models of human oocyte and early embryo development [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Macroscopic, phenomenological models have proven useful as concise framings of our understandings in fields from statistical physics to economics to biology. Constructing a phenomenological model for development would provide a framework for understanding the complicated, regulatory nature of oogenesis and embryogenesis.

FIGO position statement: Gamete donations

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Gamete donation has become a crucial part of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs), providing hope to individuals, including those who may have no other option for parenthood. This process comes with a wide range of ethical, medical, and legal challenges that need to be carefully addressed to protect the well‐being and rights of all ...

Interactive Visual Facets to Support Fluid Exploratory Search [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
Exploratory search starts with ill-defined goals and involves browsing, learning, and formulating new targets for search. To fluidly support such dynamic search behaviours, we focus on devising interactive visual facets (IVF), visualising information facets to support user comprehension and control of the information space.

Towards deep learning-powered IVF: A large public benchmark for morphokinetic parameter prediction [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
An important limitation to the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based solutions for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is the absence of a public reference benchmark to train and evaluate deep learning (DL) models. In this work, we describe a fully annotated dataset of 704 videos of developing embryos, for a total of 337k images. We applied ResNet,

Screening Positive for Rare Autosomal Aneuploidies Increases Frequency of Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes and Alters Clinical Management

Prenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Outcomes in pregnancies with rare autosomal aneuploidies (RAAs) are poorly characterized, with most studies having small sample sizes. Here, we describe outcomes and management in a large cohort of pregnancies that screened positive for an RAA (RAA+).
