“…Ten trials had age restrictions with an upper limit of between 35 and 49 years (Eskew et al, 2019;Karimzade et al, 2010;Lensen et al, 2019;Liu et al, 2017;Mackens et al, 2020;Maged et al, 2018;Mahran et al, 2016;Metwally et al, 2021;Nastri et al, 2013;Polanski et al, 2014). Three trials restricted the body mass index (BMI) to an upper limit ranging from 30 to 35 kg/m 2 (Karimzade et al, 2010;Maged et al, 2018;Metwally et al, 2021). Five trials selected women that were deemed to have a good ovarian reserve, by allowing only those with a certain level of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) to participate, with a maximum level of 10 IU/mL and 12 IU/mL in two (Maged et al, 2018;Metwally et al, 2021), and three studies (Karimzade et al, 2010;Liu et al, 2017;Mahran et al, 2016), respectively.…”
