| Variable | Double Trigger (n=17) | r-hCG (n=13) | p-value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fertilization rate | 66.7 (63.3-100.0) | 50.0 (33.3-75.0) | 0.524 |
| Cleavage rate | 50.0 (0.0-75.0) | 50.0 (0.0-100.0) | 0.897 |
| Blastulation rate | 0.0 (0.0-33.3) | 0.0 (0.0-0.0) | 0.056 |
| 2PN-fertilized oocytes | 2.0 (1.0-4.0) | 2.0 (1.0-2.0) | 0.200 |
| D3 embryos | 2.0 (0.0-4.0) | 2.0 (0.0-2.0) | 0.253 |
| D5 embryos | 0.0 (0.0-2.0) | 0.0 (0.0-0.0) | 0.049 |
Values are expressed as median (interquartile range). Fertilized 2PN oocytes, fertilization, cleavage, and blastulation rates, as well as the number of embryos on day 3 (D3) and day 5 (D5) were compared between the Double trigger and r-hCG groups. p-values are from Mann–Whitney U tests and are reported for descriptive/exploratory purposes due to skewed distributions and small subgroup sizes. A p<0.05 was considered significant.
