Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To establish the relative success of treatment by unstimulated in vitro maturation (IVM) of oocytes or stimulated in vitro fertilization (IVF) in women with polycystic ovaries undergoing assisted conception treatment. METHODS: The case-control study included 107 IVM and 107 IVF cycles matched for age and cause of infertility. In vitro maturation patients underwent transvaginal recovery of immature oocytes during an unstimulated cycle, in vitro oocyte maturation, and fertilization. Those in the IVF group underwent ovarian stimulation after pituitary suppression. Embryos were transferred in the same cycle in both groups. Main outcome measures included numbers of mature oocytes and embryos produced, and rates of implantation, pregnancy, live birth, and complications. RESULTS: In the IVM group after in vitro culture, 7.8 mature oocytes and 6.1 embryos were obtained per retrieval. With IVF, 12.0 mature oocytes (P <.01) and 9.3 embryos (P <.01) were obtained. The IVM pregnancy and live birth rates per retrieval were 26.2% and 15.9% compared with 38.3% and 26.2% for IVF (nonsignificant). The implantation rate of IVF-derived embryos was higher (17.1% versus 9.5%) than that for IVM (P <.01). There were 12 cases (11.2%) of moderate or severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in IVF patients, compared with none in the IVM group (P <.01). CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that for women with polycystic ovaries who require assisted conception, IVM is a promising alternative to conventional IVF treatment.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
