Modeling polygenic embryo screening in real-world IVF patients demonstrates limitations on efficacy

2026-04-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Polygenic embryo screening (PES) has recently become available to in-vitro fertilization (IVF) patients, allowing them to evaluate the genetic risk of each of their embryos for polygenic conditions such as heart attack or diabetes. Initial modeling predicted that transferring the embryo with the lowest genetic risk for one or more diseases would substantially reduce prevalence in the next gene...
