I am very interested in your article “a review of best practices of rapid-cooling vitrification for oocytes and embryos: a committee opinion” on Fertil Steril 2021,115:305-309. The paper showed a first delivery after human blastocyst rapid cooling by Mukaida et al. 2001 on supplement table 1. However, we already reported earlier than them.
