Abstract:
With the rapid development of assisted reproductive technique (ART),children conceived through ART represent a substantial proportion of the population.Although most researchesonthe safety of A RT offspring are optimistically,it is still worrisome that there are some inconsistent even controversial results.The risk of ARToffspringin perinatal outcomes,birth defects,growth and development,neurological prognosis and imprinting disorders still exist.Therefore,the persistent long-term follow-up of ART children to assess its impact on the long-term prognosis of offspring is particularly important.
