Endometrial thickness in assisted reproductive techniques is one of the essential factors in the success of pregnancy. Despite extensive studies on endometrial thickness prediction, research is still needed. We aimed to analyze the impact of endometrial thickness on the ongoing pregnancy rate in couples with unexplained infertility. A total of 729 couples with unexplained infertility were included in this study. A random forest model (RFM) and logistic regression (LRM) were used to predict pregnancy. Evaluation of the performance of RFM and LRM was based on classification criteria and ROC curve, Odd Ratio for ongoing Pregnancy by EMT categorized. The results showed that RFM outperformed the LRM in IVF/ICSI and IUI treatments, obtaining the highest accuracy. We obtained a 7.7mm cut-off point for IUI and 9.99 mm for IVF/ICSI treatment. The results showed machine learning is a valuable tool in predicting ongoing pregnancy and is trustable via multicenter data for two treatments. In addition, Endometrial thickness was not statistically significantly different from CPR and FHR in both treatments.
子宫内膜厚度是辅助生殖技术中妊娠成功的重要因素之一。尽管对子宫内膜厚度预测进行了广泛的研究,但仍需要进一步研究。我们旨在分析不明原因不孕夫妇的子宫内膜厚度对持续妊娠率的影响。本研究共纳入 729 对不明原因不孕夫妇。采用随机森林模型(RFM)和逻辑回归(LRM)预测妊娠。基于分类标准和 ROC 曲线评估 RFM 和 LRM 的性能,通过 EMT 分类评估持续妊娠的优势比。结果表明,RFM 在 IVF/ICSI 和 IUI 治疗中优于 LRM,获得了最高的准确性。我们为 IUI 获得了 7.7mm 的截断点,为 IVF/ICSI 治疗获得了 9.99mm 的截断点。结果表明,机器学习是预测持续妊娠的一种有价值的工具,通过两种治疗的多中心数据是可靠的。此外,在两种治疗中,子宫内膜厚度与 CPR 和 FHR 均无统计学差异。
