Vol. 1 No. 5 (2023): Евразийский журнал технологий и инноваций 165-167
Abstract
This scientific research article investigates the features of the elasticity of the vascular wall during pregnancy resulting from in vitro fertilization (IVF). The study includes 50 pregnant women who conceived through IVF and 50 pregnant women who conceived naturally. Arterial stiffness and compliance were assessed using the pulse wave velocity (PWV) and augmentation index (AIx) methods. The results showed that the arterial stiffness and compliance were better in the IVF group compared to the natural conception group.
