TL;DR: This first large-scale report of birth defects in 15,405 offspring conceived by assisted reproductive technologies in China found infants born after IVF alone to have a birth defect frequency comparable to that in the general Chinese population.

TL;DR: DNA methylation patterns of the H19 differentially methylated region were successfully determined in 32 of 50 human day 3 embryos produced and discarded after assisted reproductive technology procedures.
