Basic and Clinical Andrology (2018) 28:4 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12610-018-0070-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Sperm aneuploidy and DNA fragmentation in unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss: a multicenter case-control study Camille Esquerré-Lamare1,2, Marie Walschaerts1,2, Lucie Chansel Debordeaux3, Jessika Moreau1,2, Florence Bretelle4, François Isus1,5, Gilles Karsenty6, Laetitia Monteil7, Jeanne Perrin8,9, Aline Papaxanthos-Roche3 and Louis Bujan1,2* Abstract Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is defined as the loss of at least three pregnancies in the first trimester. Although the most common cause is embryo aneuploidy, and despite female checkup and couple karyotyping, in about 50% of cases RPL remain unexplained. Male implication has little been investigated and results are discordant. In this context, we conducted a multi-center prospective case-control study to investigate male gamete implication in unexplained RPL. Methods: A total of 33 cases and 27 controls were included from three university hospitals. We investigated environmental and family factors with a detailed questionnaire and andrological examination, sperm characteristics, sperm DNA/chromatin status using the sperm chromatin structure assay (SCSA) and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) and sperm aneuploidy using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The Mann-Whitney test and the Wilcoxon or Fisher exact tests were used. A non-parametric Spearman correlation was performed in order to analyze the relationship between various sperm parameters and FISH and sperm DNA fragmentation results. Results: We found significant differences between cases and controls in time to conceive, body mass index (BMI), family history of infertility and living environment.

  • Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Female Lifestyle Factors and Risk Of
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Systematic review and meta‑analysis of female lifestyle factors and risk of recurrent pregnancy loss Ka Ying Bonnie Ng1,2, George Cherian2, Alexandra J. Kermack1,2, Sarah Bailey2, Nick Macklon3,4, Sesh K. Sunkara5 & Ying Cheong1,2,6* It is known that lifestyle factors afect sporadic miscarriage, but the extent of this on RPL (recurrent pregnancy loss) is less well known. A systematic review and meta‑analysis was performed to assess the associations between lifestyle factors and RPL. Studies that analysed RPL in the context of BMI, smoking, alcohol and cafeine intake were included. The primary and secondary outcomes were odds of having RPL in the general population and odds of further miscarriage, respectively. Underweight and women with BMI > 25 are at higher odds of RPL in the general population (OR 1.2, 95% CI 1.12– 1.28 and OR 1.21, 95% CI 1.06–1.38, respectively). In women with RPL, having BMI > 30 and BMI > 25 has increased odds of further miscarriages (OR 1.77, 95% CI 1.25–2.50 and OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.07–1.72, respectively). The quality of the evidence for our fndings was low or very low. Being underweight and BMI > 25 contributes signifcantly to increased risk of RPL (general population). BMI > 25 or BMI > 30 increases the risk of further miscarriages (RPL population). Larger studies addressing the efects of alcohol, cigarette smoking and cafeine on the risk of RPL with optimisation of BMI in this cohort of women are now needed. Spontaneous early pregnancy loss (or miscarriage) is described as any pregnancy that fails to progress beyond 24 weeks, resulting in death and ofen expulsion of the embryo or fetus1.

  • SLE and Pregnancy
    21 SLE and Pregnancy Hanan Al-Osaimi and Suvarnaraju Yelamanchili King Fahad Armed Forces Hospital, Jeddah Saudi Arabia 1. Introduction Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that affects multiple organs. Disease flares can occur at any time during pregnancy and postpartum without any clear pattern. The hormonal and physiological changes that occur in pregnancy can induce lupus activity. Likewise the increased inflammatory response during a lupus flare can cause significant complications in pregnancy. Distinguishing between signs of lupus activity and pregnancy either physiological or pathological can be difficult [Clowse, 2007]. Pregnancy is a crucial issue that needs to be clearly discussed in details in all female patients with SLE who are in the reproductive age group. There are two essential concerns. The first one is the Lupus activity on pregnancy and the second one is the influence of pregnancy on Lupus. That is the reason why pregnancy should be planned at least six months of remission with close follow-up for SLE flares. Women with SLE usually have complicated pregnancies out of which one third will result in cesarean section, one third will have preterm delivery and more than 20% will be complicated by preeclampsia [Clowse, 2006; Clark, 2003]. Rarely an SLE patient with a controlled disease activity may deteriorate as pregnancy advances, but still the pregnancy outcome can be better if pregnancy is well timed and managed. 2. Physiology of pregnancy There are increased demands by the mother, fetus and the placenta during pregnancy which is to be met by the mother’s organ systems. Therefore there are some cardiovascular, hematological, immunological, endocrinal and metabolic changes in the mother in normal pregnancy.
