Multivariate analysis of the factors associated with live births during in vitro fertilisation in Southeast Asia: a cross-sectional study of 104,015 in vitro fertilisation records in Taiwan.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate the factors associated with live births and the interaction between age and the number of embryos transferred after in vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatment.

Methods

This study analyses data from a population-based-assisted reproductive database of all registered artificial reproduction institutions (n = 80) from 2010 to 2016 in Taiwan. The probability of a live birth in correlation with the treatment parameters was measured with multivariate logistic regression analyses using the generalised additive model (GAM) and Pearson's chi-square exact test.

Results

A total of 104,015 IVF treatments performed between 2010 and 2016 were included in our analysis. From these treatments, 31,467 (30.3%) were successfully delivered, and 40,565 test-tube babies w
