Journal ArticleDOI

Diet-Induced Obesity Model: Abnormal Oocytes and Persistent Growth Abnormalities in the Offspring

TL;DR: These findings suggest maternal obesity has adverse effects as early as the oocyte and preimplantation embryo stage and that these effects may contribute to lasting morbidity in offspring, underscoring the importance of optimal maternal weight and nutrition before conception.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations between free fatty acids, cumulus oocyte complex morphology and ovarian function during in vitro fertilization

TL;DR: Elevated follicular FFA levels are associated with poor COC morphology, and further work is needed to determine what factors influence follicularFFA levels and if these factors impact fertility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Current knowledge of obesity's effects in the pre- and periconceptional periods and avenues for future research.

TL;DR: This work discusses current knowledge of the pathophysiology of obesity in early reproductive events and how these events may affect reproductive outcomes including fertility and miscarriage risk and avenues for future research and interventions to improve reproductive outcomes for obese women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Obesity and reproductive function.

TL;DR: The adverse reproductive outcomes associated with obesity and the mechanisms involved are discussed and a discussion of public health policy with respect to the treatment of infertility in obese women is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

IVF outcomes in obese donor oocyte recipients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: Oocyte quality rather than endometrial receptivity may be the overriding factor influencing IVF outcomes in obese women using autologous oocytes, as suggested in the first systematic review and meta-analysis to address the association between BMI and outcomes for donor oocyte recipients.
