Metaphase II ratea | 0.630 ± 0.3 | 0.578 ± 0.2 | 0.602 ± 0.3 | 0.86 |

- *p-values were calculated using an ANOVA or chi-square test, as appropriate. aMetaphase II rate was determined as oocytes in metaphase II/number of captured oocytes (as mean ± SD). bFertilization rate was determined as oocytes that developed two pronuclei/number of injected oocytes (mean ± SD). cThe embryo transfer rate was determined as the ratio of patients with transferred embryos among the number of total patients in the group. dThe pregnancy rate was determined as the ratio of pregnant patients (with a positive beta-hCG) among the number of patients with transferred embryos. eThe live birth rate was determined as the ratio of patients with at least one live newborn (either by delivery or caesarean section) among the number of pregnant patients
