Résumé
This meta-analysis aimed to assess the reproductive competence of blastocysts developed on day 7 compared with blastocysts developed on day 5/6. A systematic search was carried out to select relevant studies published before January 2020. Ten retrospective observational cohort studies were included. The primary outcome was the clinical pregnancy rate (CPR). Secondary outcomes were live birth rate (LBR), euploid rate, and survival rates after thawing. Frozen-thawed day 7 blastocyst transfer was associated with a significant reduction in CPR compared to day 5/6 (OR 0.36 95% CI 0.21 to 0.62, p = 0.0002, I
