Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Total fertilization failure (TFF) remains a critical barrier in assisted reproductive technology (ART), occurring in 5–10% of treatment cycles. While TFF can result from both male and female gamete factors, emerging evidence suggests that oocyte gene mutations may play a significant role. This study systematically reviews and meta-analyzes the influence of specific oocyte gene mutations (OGMs) on...
