Trial summary

Oocyte quality is a key limiting factor in female fertility which is primarily reflected in morphological features. Centrally located cytoplasm granulation (CLCG) is one type of cytoplasmic dimorphism exhibited by oocytes that could be linked to pesticide exposure with a significant risk of decreased ICSI outcomes.

Study population: The population in the retrospective study consisted of 633 couples who attended a reproductive medical center and who were part of an ICSI program between 2009 and 2011. The study population is described in Table 1. In the selected couples, women were normo-responders (oocyte cohort over 5), under 35 years old, living in the Picardy, France region, and exhibited CLCG after oocyte morphology evaluation which was confirmed by a second embryologist (Fig. 1

Who may be able to join

  • couples who attendes a reproductive medical center
  • couples that were part of a ICSI program between 2009 and 2011
  • women were normo-responders
  • female > 18 years <35 yeas old

Who cannot join

  • female < 18 years > 35 yeas old
  • couple with severe male infertility factors on oocyte activation and subsequent embryo development

About this study

Oocyte quality is a key limiting factor in female fertility which is primarily reflected in morphological features. Centrally located cytoplasm granulation (CLCG) is one type of cytoplasmic dimorphism exhibited by oocytes that could be linked to pesticide exposure with a significant risk of decreased ICSI outcomes.

This retrospective study included 633 women who were part of an intracytoplasmic spermatozoa injection (ICSI) program between 2009 and 2011. The participants lived in the Picardy region of France and had been exposed to pesticides. The participants were divided in two groups based on prevalence of oocytes with CLCG (LCLCG [n= 83]: low prevalence of oocytes with CLCG under 25%. HCLCG [ n= 68]: high prevalence of CLCG over 75%). The embryological and clinical outcomes were analysed for both groups and were calculated using the difference between the two values.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. ICS outcomes of couples presenting differetn CLCG prevalence

    The aim of the present study was to investigate the ICSI outcomes of couples presenting different CLCG prevalence's of retrieved oocytes (low prevalence of CLCG; fewer than 25% [LCLCG] and high prevalence of CLCG; over 75% [HCLCG]) and its correlation to pesticide exposure zones in the region of Picardy, France.

    Measured: 2years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pesticide Poisoning, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ICS outcomes of couples presenting differetn CLCG prevalence (time frame: 2years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jun 2026.
