TLDR
Raised BMI is associated with adverse pregnancy outcome in women undergoing IVF/ICSI treatment, including lower live birth rates, present in overweight as well as obese women.Abstract:
There is conflicting evidence regarding the effect of raised body mass index (BMI) on the outcome of assisted reproductive technology In particular, there is insufficient evidence to describe the effect of BMI on live birth rates We carried out a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies to evaluate the effect of raised BMI on treatment outcome following IVF/ICSI treatment Subgroup analysis on overweight and obese patients was performed Literature searches were conducted on MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Web of Science from 1966 to 2010 Thirty-three studies including 47,967 treatment cycles were included Results indicated that women who were overweight or obese (BMI ≥ 25) had significantly lower clinical pregnancy (RR=090, P<00001) and live birth rates (RR=084, P=00002) and significantly higher miscarriage rate (RR=131, P < 00001) compared to women with a BMI < 25 following treatment A subgroup analysis of overweight women (BMI ≥ 25-299) revealed lower clinical pregnancy (RR=091, P=00003) and live birth rates (RR=091, P=001) and higher miscarriage rate (RR=124, P < 000001) compared to women with normal weight (BMI < 25) In conclusion, raised BMI is associated with adverse pregnancy outcome in women undergoing IVF/ICSI treatment, including lower live birth rates This effect is present in overweight as well as obese womenread more

Oocyte environment: follicular fluid and cumulus cells are critical for oocyte health
Daniel A. Dumesic,David R. Meldrum,Mandy G. Katz-Jaffe,Rebecca L. Krisher,William B. Schoolcraft +4 more
TL;DR: Recent technologies are now exploring transcriptional, translational, and post-translational events within the human follicle with the goal of identifying biomarkers that reliably predict oocyte quality in the clinical setting.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that obesity before conception imparts a legacy of mitochondrial loss in offspring that is caused by ER stress and is reversible during the final stages of oocyte development and maturation.

TL;DR: Overweight women have a higher incidence of menstrual dysfunction and anovulation, and are at a high risk for reproductive health, and weight loss has beneficial effects on the reproductive outcomes in patients.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors randomly assigned infertile women with a body-mass index (the weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters) of 29 or higher to a 6-month lifestyle intervention preceding treatment for infertility or to prompt treatment for fertility.

Meta-Analysis in Clinical Trials*
TL;DR: This paper examines eight published reviews each reporting results from several related trials in order to evaluate the efficacy of a certain treatment for a specified medical condition and suggests a simple noniterative procedure for characterizing the distribution of treatment effects in a series of studies.

Quantifying heterogeneity in a meta‐analysis
TL;DR: It is concluded that H and I2, which can usually be calculated for published meta-analyses, are particularly useful summaries of the impact of heterogeneity, and one or both should be presented in publishedMeta-an analyses in preference to the test for heterogeneity.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role and limitations of retrospective investigations of factors possibly associated with the occurrence of a disease are discussed and their relationship to forward-type studies emphasized, and examples of situations in which misleading associations could arise through the use of inappropriate control groups are presented.
