A meta-analysis of pregnancy outcomes in women with polycystic ovary syndrome. (2006, neutral): “C.M.Boomsma et al. Page 10 of 11 ( Schieve et al., 2002 ).”
Association of in vitro fertilization with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and epigenetic alterations of LIT1 and H19. (2003, background): “Specifically, low birth weight has been described after ART (Schieve et al. 2002), and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) may be associated with an increased risk of major birth defects (Hansen et al. 2002).”
Sperm DNA integrity assessment in prediction of assisted reproduction technology outcome. (2007, background): “The most recent epidemiological studies report a 2-fold higher risk on infant malformations and the occurrence of syndromes related to errors in imprinting after ICSI (Hansen et al., 2002, 2005; Schieve et al., 2002; Boundelle et al., 2005).”
Intracytoplasmic sperm injection may increase the risk of imprinting defects. (2002, background): “Schieve et al. (2002) reported an excess risk of low and very low birth weight after assisted reproduction, and Hansen et al. (2002) found that ICSI is associated with an increased risk of major birth defects.”
Perinatal Outcomes in Singletons Following In Vitro Fertilization: A Meta-Analysis (2004, background): “A number of studies that were originally excluded were added in the sensitivity analyses.(10,11,21,41,46,50) Addition of these did not change any of the summary ORs.”
