Table 6 Morphokinetic characteristics of human cryopreserved embryos after thawing/warming in dataset 2. P-values are based on a clustered logrank test. Hazard ratios and 95% CIs are based on simple random effects Cox proportional hazards regression models, modeling mother as random effect

  1. Nc not computed because the model did not converge
  2. NA median time cannot be computed as less than half of the embryos reached the outcome
