摘要：

The Catholic Church has established a large number of universities worldwide. A dozen have schools of medicine and the impact of church doctrine on reproductive medicine appears widely disparate between some medical schools at Catholic universities in Europe and the rest of the world. The pressure of the Vatican on the Catholic universities in Belgium to abandon IVF is mounting. Comparison of the scientific performances by the Catholic universities with and without IVF shows that the absence of IVF is disastrous for research in reproductive medicine.
