“…Studies on policy-and practice-level factors may help to understand these results. At the policy level, a review (Trawick, Pecoriello, Quinn, & Goldman, 2021) At the practice level, previous fertility knowledge studies have identified several factors that may hamper provision of reproductive biology counseling and education, including the following.…”

Background Female infertility is a major problem for women of reproductive-age worldwide. Oxidative stress and inflammation are involved in processes related to female infertility. Serum uric acid levels, an indicator of oxidative stress and inflammation, have rarely been reported to be associated with female infertility. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between serum uric acid levels and female infertility. Methods This cross-sectional study included women aged 18–44 years from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 2013 and 2018. All data were extracted from NHANES questionnaires and laboratory measurements. Weighted univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were utilized to explore the relationship between serum uric acid and female infertility. Stratified analyses were performed based on body mass index (BMI, < 25 kg/m2 and ≥ 25 kg/m2) and age (≤ 30 years and > 30 years). The odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to report associations. Results A total of 2,884 women were included, of which 352 (13.30%) had infertility. Women with high serum uric acid concentrations were related to higher odds of infertility (OR = 1.20, 95%CI: 1.03–1.39) after adjusting for confounders. Compared with serum uric acid concentrations ≤ 3.72 mg/dL, women with uric acid concentrations of 4.43–5.13 mg/dL (OR = 1.65, 95%CI: 1.02–2.67) and > 5.13 mg/dL (OR = 1.86, 95%CI: 1.10–3.13) were related to higher odds of infertility. Stratified analyses showed that high serum uric acid concentrations were associated with higher odds of infertility in women with a BMI < 25 kg/m2 (OR = 1.41, 95%CI: 1.04–1.93), but not in women with a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2 (P = 0.056). In addition, high serum uric acid concentrations were associated with higher odds of infertility in women aged > 30 years (OR = 1.23, 95%CI: 1.04–1.45), but not in women aged ≤ 30 years (P = 0.556). Conclusion Women with high serum uric acid concentrations were associated with higher odds of infertility, and this association may vary by BMI and age.

“…It has been well known that with increasing chronological age, female fecundity decreases. In view of the current trend to postpone childbearing in contemporary populations, the age-related decrease of the ability to produce offspring in female has gradually appeared [ 1 ]. The mechanisms underlying the observed gradual decline of the follicle pool and the reduced oocyte quality are far from being fully understood.…”

The age-related decay in oocyte quality contributes to the gradual decline in fertility and the final occurrence of natural sterility. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of the hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBOT) on oocyte quality in aging mouse oocyte. Eight- and forty-week-old female C57BL/6 J mice were treated with HBO for 10 days, and the quality of oocytes was analyzed. The results revealed that HBOT improved the age-related serum AMH levels. While compared with untreated aged mice, HBOT showed reduced follicular apoptosis and improved oocyte maturation, fertilization, and blastocyst formation in aged mice. HBO triggered changes in the microRNA expression in the ovaries of aged mice. In this study, 27 DEGs were identified in the HBOT mouse ovarian tissues, of which 9 were upregulated and 18 were downregulated. Notably, KEGG analysis revealed that these genes involved in different biological processes differed significantly in the ovary. Among these, the PI3K-Akt signaling was the most prominent pathway that controlled the recruitment and growth of primordial follicles. The calcium signaling pathway was found to be involved during the peri-implantation period. These results suggest that HBOT can be applied to improve the quality of oocytes, and it could be a potential clinical application to improve the fertility of aged female.
