AbstractThe relationship between clinical outcomes and various factors influencing pregnancy was analyzed to provide reference data for patients and clinicians when selecting embryo transfer protocols. This was a retrospective study of 1309 transfer cycles between June 1, 2018, and May 1, 2023, in the Reproductive Medicine Center. Univariate analysis was performed on various factors that may have affected pregnancy outcomes, and further regression analysis was performed on those factors found by univariate analysis to correlate positively with clinical pregnancy outcomes. Finally, the embryo transfer schemes were compared based on the analysis results. The results showed that the stage of embryonic development significantly affected pregnancy outcomes after transplantation (P < .01, 95% confidence interval: 2.554 [1.958-3.332]). There was no significant difference in the pregnancy rate between 1 high-quality blastocyst transfer and 2 cleavage-stage embryos or blastocyst transfer (64.22% vs 70.11%, P = .439); however, the rate of multiple pregnancies after 1 high-quality blastocyst transfer was close to the rate of natural conception. These data show that the transfer of single high-quality blastocysts can significantly reduce the multiple pregnancy rate while ensuring an ideal pregnancy rate, which can be used as a reference for planning the first transplantation in patients with good prognoses.Copyright © 2024 the Author(s).
