  1. Note: The continuous variables were presented as mean (SD) and analyzed by ANOVA analysis. P < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. MTHFR 5,10-Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase. a: CC versus CT. b: CT versus TT. c: TT versus CC. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001, NS: not significant. P-values of post-hoc multivariate comparisons under GnRHa short protocol: For the number of transferable embryos: CC versus CT (p-value=0.858), CT versus TT (p-value=0.001); TT versus CC (p-value=0.001). For the number of good-quality embryos: CC versus CT (p-value=0.943), CT versus TT (p-value<0.001), TT versus CC (p-value<0.001)
