Our strategy for the present ecological study was to search scientific publications in Latin America and in Europe that reported data collection for the same time periods: data from ART performed in 2013 in Latin America and Europe (i.e., treatment cycles initiated between January 1 and December 31, 2013), and published by the ESHRE in 2017 and by the RLA in 2016.8 9 As only members of the ESHRE and of the RLA can access and use the full registry databases for research purposes, we focused our comparisons in the published, summarized data. No Institutional Review Board approval was therefore required, since neither patients nor center level data were used.
