However, people undergoing PGT for monogenic diseases or structural rearrangements are often fertile in contrast to infertile people undergoing general IVF\/ICSI treatment.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>STUDY DESIGN, SIZE DURATION<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library on 15 November 2024 and the search was updated on 11 June 2025. Inclusion criteria were: (i) randomized clinical trials or cohort studies comparing IVF\/ICSI with or without PGT-A, (ii) embryo cultivation until the blastocyst stage, (iii) TE biopsy, and (iv) vitrification as cryopreservation method. Exclusion criteria were: (i) case series and case reports, (ii) polar body- or cleavage-stage biopsy, (iii) slow freeze, (iv) use of donor oocytes, or (v) natural conception controls. The main outcomes were HDP, preterm delivery, abnormal placentation, low birth weight, very low birth weight, and small for gestational age.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>PARTICIPANTS\/MATERIALS, SETTING, METHODS<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Meta-analyses were performed for outcomes reported in \u22653 of the included studies. Frozen embryo transfer (FET)-cycles only subgroup-analyses were performed if the data were available in \u22653 of the included studies. Newcastle-Ottawa quality assessment score and Risk-of-Bias 2 were used to assess potential bias in the individual studies, and the GRADE approach was used to assess the certainty of evidence.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>MAIN RESULTS AND THE ROLE OF CHANCE<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 2260 records were screened, and 12 studies comprising 56\u00a0113 live births were included, of which 17\u00a0254 resulted from PGT-A and 38\u00a0859 resulted from IVF\/ICSI without PGT-A.
