研究显示试管婴儿成长后的人有更好的生活质量：IVF-conceived people have better quality of

最近的一项研究发现，通过生育治疗受孕的成年人在成年期的生活质量可能比自然受孕的人更好。

研究已经调查了IVF受孕儿童的健康状况，但有关成人的数据有限，因为IVF是在1978年才开始实施的。

澳大利亚墨尔本莫纳什大学该研究的主要作者Karin Hammarberg博士说：“我们的研究结果表明，接受ART[辅助生殖技术]可以为成年后的生活质量提供一些优势，而不受其他心理社会因素的影响。”

该研究在两个不同的时间点观察了一组193名通过生育治疗受孕的成年人和86名自然受孕的成年人：当他们在18至28岁之间，然后在22至35岁之间。

该研究还表明，无论他们的受孕方法如何，在第一个时间点处于更好心理和家庭环境的成年人，在第二个时间点更有可能拥有更高的生活质量。

“也许不足为奇的是，我们还发现，无论这个人是如何受孕的，与父母更好的关系、更少的心理压力以及更好的家庭财务状况有助于提高成年后的生活质量，”哈马尔伯格博士补充说。.

两组在两个时间点的心理健康状况均使用世界卫生组织生活质量-简要评估(WHOQoL-BREF)进行评估。它基于幸福的四个方面。身体，涉及疼痛、睡眠和能量水平；社会心理，包括关于感觉、记忆和学习的问题；社会关系，关于社会支持和关系；第四是他们周围的环境。

统计测试表明，通过生育治疗受孕的成年人在第二个时间点的测试的社会关系和环境部分得分明显更高。

研究人员推测，通过生育治疗受孕的孩子的积极结果可能反映了这样一个事实，即他们的父母可能对为人父母的承诺特别强烈。

两组还在第一时间点完成了凯斯勒心理困扰问卷和心理健康访谈。后者包括有关性取向、财务状况、对自己体重的看法、家庭关系、友谊和锻炼的问题。

该研究发表在《人类生育力》杂志上。

A recent study found that adults conceived through fertility treatment may have a better quality of life in adulthood than those who were naturally conceived.

Research has already investigated the health of IVF-conceived children，but data about adults is limited because IVF was first implemented relatively recently，in 1978.

'Our findings suggest that being ART[assisted reproductive technology]-conceived can provide some advantages on quality of life in adulthood，independent of other psychosocial factors，'said Dr Karin Hammarberg，lead author of the study at Monash University，Melbourne，Australia.

The study looked at a group of 193 adults conceived through fertility treatment and 86 naturally conceived adults at two separate time points:when they were between 18 and 28 years old and then again between the ages of 22 and 35.

The study also showed that regardless of their method of conception，adults who were in a better psychological and home environment at the first time point，were more likely to have higher quality of life at the second.

'Perhaps unsurprisingly，we also found that，independently of how the person was conceived，having a better relationship with parents，less psychological distress，and a better family financial situation in young adulthood contributed to a better adult quality of life，'Dr Hammarberg added.

The psychological wellbeing of the two groups at both time points was assessed using the World Health Organisation Quality of Life–Brief Assessment(WHOQoL-BREF).It is based around four aspects of wellbeing.Physical，which concerns pain，sleep and energy levels；psychosocial，which includes questions on feelings，memory and learning；social relationships，on social support and relationships；and a fourth on their surrounding environment.

Statistical tests showed that adults conceived through fertility treatment had significantly higher scores in the social relationships and environment sections of the test at the second time point.

The researchers speculated that the positive results for children conceived through fertility treatment could reflect the fact that their parents may have a particularly strong desire for a commitment to parenthood.

The two groups also completed a Kessler Psychological Distress questionnaire and an interview about psychological wellbeing at the first time point.The latter included questions around sexual orientation，financial situation，perceptions of their own weight，family relationships，friendships and exercise.

The study was published in the journal Human Fertility.
