A study led by Dr Francisca Martínez of the Reproductive Medicine Unit of Dexeus Mujer analysed oocyte transcriptomes after two different LH suppression protocols in the same patient: with a GnRH antagonist (ANT) and with progesterone.
Dr Gerard Albaigés, head of R&D at the Foetal Medicine Division of the Obstetrics Unit of Dexeus Mujer is part of the team of researchers participating in the prospective, multicentre study TRUFFLE 2 (Trial of Randomised Umbilical and Foetal Flow in Europe).
The nursing staff of the Reproductive Medicine Unit at Dexeus Mujer has carried out a retrospective observational study to see whether incorporating folliculometry into their routine during egg donation monitoring cycles can contribute to improving donor satisfaction without affecting the outcome of the treatment.

A group of researchers at Dexeus Mujer, led by biologist Beatriz Carrasco, carried out a retrospective study to determine the sex ratio in the blastocyst stage of human embryos generated by ICSI, in transferred and implanted euploid blastocysts, and, finally, in babies at birth.

A team of researchers at Dexeus Mujer has carried out a study, led by Dr Máximo Izquierdo, which analyses the relationship between bone mineral density (BMD) and breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The study was carried out on a sample of 340…
Carme Pons, a clinical embryologist at Dexeus Mujer and a member of the Embryology Interest Group of the Spanish Association for the Study of Reproductive Biology (ASEBIR), has led a multicentre study promoted by this interest group.
At Dexeus Mujer, two techniques are routinely applied to maintain haemostasis: temporary clipping of both uterine arteries at their origin and of the ovarian vessels at the pelvic infundibulum, and intramyometrial epinephrine injection before performing the hysterectomy.
The variables analyzed were: age, age of onset of menopause, smoking and grip strength, body mass index and adiposity assessed by bioelectrical impedance. Physical activity levels were assessed by means the International Physical Activity Questionnaire.
A total of 1,495 cryotransfer cycles with Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) performed between August 2017 and December 2019 analysed. All patients were between 18 and 40 years old and had previously undergone an ovarian stimulation treatment.
The fact that women with hyperandrogenism present an increased number of antral follicles suggests a role of androgens in follicular development. Clinical examples of this effect are polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia…
