Effects of Temperature during in vitro culture and HSP70 addition in the IMC medium on blastocyst formation rates on days 7, 8 and 9.
Stage of Embryos | Factor | B- Coefficients with 95% CI | Sig. |
---|---|---|---|
Day-7 blastocysts | Temperature | −9.1 (−10.7, −7.6) | <0.001 |
HSP70 | 3.9 (0.8, 6.9) | 0.017 | |
Day-8 blastocysts | Temperature | −10.0 (−12.5, −7.5) | <0.001 |
HSP70 | 4.1 (−0.8, 9.0) | 0.096 | |
Day-9 blastocysts | Temperature | −9.9 (−12.2, −7.5) | <0.001 |
HSP70 | 4.8 (0.2, 9.5) | 0.043 |
Multiple regression (Dependent variable: embryo development rates on days 7, 8, 9, respectively and independent variables: Temperature and HSP70).
