Table 2.

Final validation model for prediction of the probability (p) of euploid blastocyst per mature (MII) oocyte.

Y = −2.728414 –0.138868 [I(spermSource=Ejaculate) – I(spermSource=Testicular_NOA)]
      −0.13032 [I(spermSource=Testicular_NOA) – I(spermSource=NOA)]
      +0.4928267[I(spermSource = Ejaculate) – I(spermSource=Testicular NOA)]
      +0.0807783[I(Center = Anatolia) – I(Center = Androfert)]
      +0.3765617[I(Center = GENERA) – I(Center = Anatolia)]
Where the indicator function I(x) = 1 if x is TRUE and 0 otherwise. The probability p is p=(11+e-Y)

The full equation is written at the top of the table. Each particular characteristic is displayed with an associated P-value (Prob >ChiSquare) giving the indication of how much weight each variable will contribute to the probability of blastocyst euploidy per metaphase II oocytes.
