The Challenges of Making a Blastocyst-Stage Embryo: Impact of Heat Stress & Technical Factors Associated with IVP Procedures

It was hypothesized that technical factors associated with in vitro production (IVP) of embryos may influence rate of blastocyst development of oocytes matured at 38.5 or 41.0 C. To test this hypothesis, a retrospective meta-analysis was performed. Simple linear regression was performed to analyze...
