title: [Research progress on living quality of children conceived by assisted reproductive technology].
abstract: With the development of assisted reproductive technique (ART), children born following ART now form a sizeable subgroup of the population, so assessment for the safety of ART becomes more urgent than ever before. The health problems about living quality of children conceived by ART mainly focus on perinatal outcome and short-term follow-up study, including multiple pregnancies, low birth weight and prematurity in singleton births, congenital malformations, imprinting disorders, neurodevelopmental outcome, neonatal outcomes, physical and mental health, as well as cancer risks. In this review, we will discuss the health problems of these children, to provide data for further study.
