Background: Fertility preservation is increasingly important with improving cancer survival rates and the delay in childbearing in modern societies. The objective of our study was to review the experience of the fertility preservation programme in a tertiary-assisted reproduction unit in Hong Kong. Methods: This is a retrospective study involving men and women who were seen at a tertiary-assisted reproduction unit for fertility preservation counselling before gonadotoxic treatment from January 2005 to December 2020. Their medical records in paper and electronic forms were reviewed. Results: There were 75 consultations for female fertility preservation from 2010 to 2020 involving 72 women. Twenty women underwent 22 cycles of ovarian stimulation for oocyte or embryo cryopreservation, two of whom subsequently transported their oocytes abroad for further management and another two achieved natural conception. Additional four women who did not have oocyte or embryo cryopreservation achieved natural conception after cancer treatment. Eleven (15.2%) women were followed up at a reproductive endocrinology clinic after their cancer treatment. From 2005 to 2020, 265 men had sperm cryopreserved. Twenty-six (9.8%) came back to use the cryopreserved sperms, the wives of 13 (50.0%) of whom achieved an on-going pregnancy. Six of them transferred out and 40 discarded the cryopreserved sperms. Conclusions: There was generally an increasing number of patient consultations for fertility preservation in our Centre over the past decade but a consistently low rate of utilisation of cryopreserved gametes for both women and men. Post-cancer treatment fertility evaluation and monitoring was a major area of deficiency in Hong Kong. More structured post-cancer treatment fertility follow-up is needed.
背景:在现代社会,随着癌症存活率的提高和生育年龄的推迟,生育能力的保存变得越来越重要。本研究的目的是回顾香港某第三次辅助生殖单位的生育能力保存计划的经验。方法:这是一项回顾性研究,涉及2005年1月至2020年12月在促性腺毒素治疗前在第三辅助生殖部门接受生育保留咨询的男性和女性。审查了他们纸质和电子形式的医疗记录。结果:2010 - 2020年共进行女性生育保留咨询75次,涉及72名妇女。20名妇女接受了22个周期的卵巢刺激卵母细胞或胚胎冷冻保存,其中2名随后将其卵母细胞运送到国外进行进一步管理,另外2名获得自然受孕。另外4名没有卵母细胞或胚胎冷冻保存的女性在癌症治疗后实现了自然受孕。11名(15.2%)妇女在接受癌症治疗后在生殖内分泌诊所接受随访。从2005年到2020年,265名男性冷冻保存了精子。26人(9.8%)返回使用冷冻保存的精子,其中13人(50.0%)的妻子成功怀孕。其中6人移植了体外,40人丢弃了冷冻保存的精子。结论:在过去的十年中,我们中心有越来越多的患者咨询生育能力保存,但女性和男性冷冻保存配子的使用率一直很低。癌症治疗后的生育能力评估和监测是香港的主要不足。癌症治疗后需要更有条理的生育随访。

Background:Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is diagnosed when [Formula: see text]2 of the following symptoms are present: ovulation disorder (OD), hyperandrogenism (HA), and polycystic ovary morphology (PCO). Clinical features of PCOS are heterogeneous and there are four clinical phenotypes: A (OD + HA + PCO); B (HA + OD); C (HA + PCO); and D (OD + PCO). Women with a PCOS phenotype that includes severe HA are at increased risk for pregnancy complications. There are currently no data on impact of PCOS phenotypes on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes in Vietnamese women. This study investigated the association between PCOS phenotypes and IVF outcomes. Methods:This is a secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial conducted in patients with PCOS undergoing IVF at IVFMD, My Duc Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam between January 2018 and April 2019. The primary outcome was live birth rate. Results:A total of 192 patients were included, of whom 33 patients had phenotype A (17.2%) and 159 had phenotype D (82.8%); no patients had phenotype B or C. Body mass index was significantly higher in patients with phenotype A than D (25.36 ± 4.78 versus 22.08 ± 3.21, [Formula: see text] = 0.001). There were no differences in laboratory and pregnancy outcomes between patients with phenotypes A and D. The live birth rate was lower in patients with phenotype A versus D, but the between-group difference did not reach statistical significance (33.3% vs. 42.8%, [Formula: see text] = 0.419). Conclusions:The common PCOS phenotypes in Vietnamese women with infertility were A and D. No impact of PCOS phenotypes on IVF treatment outcomes was detected in this secondary analysis; larger studies are needed
背景:多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS)被诊断为以下症状2:排卵障碍(OD),高雄激素(HA),多囊卵巢形态(PCO)。多囊卵巢综合征的临床特征具有异质性,临床表型有四种:A型(OD + HA + PCO);B (ha + od);C (ha + pco);D (OD + PCO)。患有多囊卵巢综合征(PCOS)表型的女性,包括严重的HA,妊娠并发症的风险增加。目前尚无关于多囊卵巢综合征表型对越南妇女体外受精(IVF)结果影响的数据。本研究探讨了PCOS表型与IVF结果之间的关系。方法:这是对2018年1月至2019年4月期间在越南胡志明市美德医院IVFMD接受体外受精的PCOS患者进行的一项随机对照试验的二次分析。主要观察指标为活产率。结果:共纳入192例患者,其中A型33例(占17.2%),D型159例(占82.8%);A型患者的体重指数明显高于D型患者(25.36±4.78 vs 22.08±3.21,[公式:见文]= 0.001)。A型和D型患者的实验室和妊娠结局无差异。A型患者的活产率低于D型患者,但组间差异无统计学意义(33.3%比42.8%,[公式:见文]= 0.419)。结论:越南不孕妇女常见的PCOS表型为A型和d型,本二次分析未发现PCOS表型对IVF治疗结果的影响;需要更大规模的研究

Oogenesis in mammalian females, including humans, is arrested prior to birth. Females, therefore, are born with a limited number of primary oocytes. This is in direct contrast to males in whom spermatogenesis continues during the entire lifespan following puberty. Here, we discuss possible evolutionary advantages that this confers and contrast this with age-related decline in oocyte quality that results in diminished fertility with advancing maternal age. We believe that a better understanding of these processes would be helpful in developing strategies to preserve fertility as maternal age increases, especially in the context of the current demographic shift with more and more women seeking fertility treatment at advanced age.
哺乳动物(包括人类)的雌性卵子在出生前就被阻止了。因此,雌性在出生时具有数量有限的初级卵母细胞。这与男性形成鲜明对比,男性的精子在青春期后的整个生命周期中都在继续发生。在这里,我们讨论了这可能带来的进化优势,并将其与年龄相关的卵母细胞质量下降(随着母亲年龄的增长而导致生育能力下降)进行了对比。我们认为,随着产妇年龄的增长,更好地了解这些过程将有助于制定保持生育能力的策略,特别是在当前人口结构变化的背景下,越来越多的妇女在高龄时寻求生育治疗。

Background: To evaluate obstetrical and neonatal outcomes of singletons conceived after advanced assisted reproductive technology (ART) techniques: conventional IVF pregnancies (C-IVF), ejaculated sperm intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), assisted oocyte activation (AOA), in vitro maturation (IVM), and testicular sperm extraction (TESE). Methods: The subjects were 3,028 singletons who were born after fresh or frozen embryo transfer. The subjects were separated into five groups: C-IVF (n = 855), ICSI (n = 1,869), AOA (n = 42), IVM (n = 32), and TESE (n = 230). We evaluated obstetrical and neonatal outcomes calculating the adjusted odds ratio (AOR) using multivariable logistic regression analyses for fresh and frozen embryos and for cleavage and blastocyst transfer. The C-IVF group was used as a background control for the ICSI group. Moreover, the TESE, AOA, and IVM groups were compared to the ICSI group to evaluate the effects of the ICSI procedure itself. Results: The incidence of perinatal complications was significantly lower in the ICSI-fresh group (AOR = 0.29, 95% CI: 0.10–0.83, p ¡ 0.05). Regarding sex ratio, the IVM was significantly associated with sex ratio imbalance toward female in both fresh and frozen groups (AOR = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.10–0.96, AOR = 0.27, 95% CI: 0.07–0.98, p ¡ 0.05). On the other hand, there were no significant differences in preterm birth rate, low birth weight rate and congenital abnormalities rate between conventional IVF, ICSI, and the other groups. Conclusions: There were no negative effects on obstetrical and neonatal outcomes between conventional IVF and ICSI. Although this was a limited sample size study, advanced ART technologies such as AOA, IVM, and TESE also seem to have a low risk of adverse impact on obstetrical and neonatal outcomes but may have a slight impact on sex ratio.
背景:评估先进辅助生殖技术(ART)技术后单胎妊娠的产科和新生儿结局:常规IVF妊娠(C-IVF)、精精胞浆内单精子注射(ICSI)、辅助卵母细胞激活(AOA)、体外成熟(IVM)和睾丸精子提取(TESE)。方法:以新鲜或冷冻胚胎移植后出生的单胎3028例为研究对象。受试者分为5组:C-IVF (n = 855)、ICSI (n = 1869)、AOA (n = 42)、IVM (n = 32)和TESE (n = 230)。我们使用多变量logistic回归分析计算新鲜和冷冻胚胎以及卵裂和囊胚移植的调整优势比(AOR)来评估产科和新生儿结局。C-IVF组作为ICSI组的背景对照。此外,将TESE、AOA和IVM组与ICSI组进行比较,以评估ICSI手术本身的效果。结果:ICSI-fresh组围产期并发症发生率明显低于对照组(AOR = 0.29, 95% CI: 0.10 ~ 0.83, p < 0.05)。在性别比方面,新鲜组和冷冻组的IVM与女性性别比失衡显著相关(AOR = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.10 ~ 0.96; AOR = 0.27, 95% CI: 0.07 ~ 0.98, p < 0.05)。另一方面,在早产率、低出生体重率和先天性异常率方面,常规IVF、ICSI组与其他组无显著差异。结论:常规IVF和ICSI对产科和新生儿结局没有负面影响。虽然这是一项样本量有限的研究,但先进的ART技术,如AOA、IVM和TESE,似乎对产科和新生儿结局的不良影响风险也很低,但可能对性别比例有轻微影响。

Background and objective: Day-5 blastocyst embryos are usually chosen for assisted reproductive therapy. We compared the reproductive outcomes of the euploid blastocysts developed on Day 5 versus Day 6. Methods: This single-center, retrospective observational study analyzed patients aged 25–45 years, who underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection from December 2014 to November 2018. Depending on the day of trophectoderm biopsy, patients were categorized into Day-5 and Day-6 groups. Percentages of euploid embryos were calculated for both groups, and elective single euploid blastocysts were transferred in a frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles. The study endpoints were the comparisons of the reproductive outcomes including clinical pregnancy rate (CPR), implantation rate (IR), miscarriage rate (MR), and live birth rate (LBR) between Day-5 and Day-6 euploid FET groups. Results: A total of 801 embryos from 184 patients were evaluated [Day 5 ([Formula: see text]=769); Day 6 ([Formula: see text]=32); 42.45% were euploid] with the rate of euploidy in Day-5 and Day-6 groups at 42.52% and 40.62%, respectively. A total of 126 patients underwent FET with 126 elective single euploid embryos (Day 5: 117; Day 6: 9). For Day-5 versus Day-6 groups, a significantly higher IR (61.54% vs. 44.44%; [Formula: see text] = 0.0531), CPR (61.54% vs. 44.44%; [Formula: see text] = 0.0531), and LBR (61.54% vs. 33.33%; [Formula: see text] = 0.0014) were reported. Multivariate analysis on ANOVA suggested, comparable pregnancy rates at Day 5 and Day 6 ([Formula: see text] = 0.728). Conclusions: Day-5 euploid blastocysts seem to offer better reproductive outcomes than Day-6 euploid blastocysts. Further research is recommended to evaluate the reproductive outcomes of Day-6 blastocysts.
背景与目的:辅助生殖治疗通常选择第5天的囊胚。我们比较了第5天和第6天发育的整倍体囊胚的生殖结果。方法:本研究为单中心、回顾性观察性研究,分析了2014年12月至2018年11月25-45岁接受卵胞浆内单精子注射的患者。根据滋养外胚层活检的日期,将患者分为第5天和第6天组。计算两组整倍体胚胎的百分比,并在冷冻胚胎移植(FET)周期中移植选择性的单个整倍体囊胚。研究终点是比较第5天和第6天整倍体FET组的生殖结局,包括临床妊娠率(CPR)、着床率(IR)、流产率(MR)和活产率(LBR)。结果:184例患者共801个胚胎被评估[第5天]([公式:见文]=769);第6天([公式:见正文]=32);42.45%为整倍体,第5天和第6天整倍体率分别为42.52%和40.62%。126例患者接受了FET, 126个选择性的单整倍体胚胎(第5天:117;第5天组与第6天组相比,IR显著更高(61.54% vs. 44.44%;[公式:见正文]= 0.0531),CPR (61.54% vs. 44.44%;[公式:见文]= 0.0531),LBR (61.54% vs. 33.33%;[公式:见文]= 0.0014)。多因素方差分析显示,第5天和第6天的妊娠率可比([公式:见文]= 0.728)。结论:第5天的整倍体囊胚似乎比第6天的整倍体囊胚提供更好的生殖结果。建议进一步研究以评估第6天囊胚的生殖结果。

Background: The clinical value of personalized embryo transfer (pET) guided by the endometrial receptivity analysis (ERA) tests for recurrent implantation failure (RIF) cases is still unclear. The aim of this study is to clarify the efficacy of ERA leading to personalization of the day of embryo transfer (ET) in RIF patients. Methods: A retrospective study was performed for 94 patients with RIF who underwent ERA between July 2015 and December 2019. Pregnancy outcomes in a previous vitrified-warmed blastocyst transfer (previous VBT) and a personalized vitrified-warmed blastocyst transfer (pVBT) in identical patients were compared. The details of each pVBT were further analyzed between patients in a non-displaced group, which indicated “receptive” cases in ERA results and those who were in the displaced group, which indicated “non-receptive” cases. Results: When the pregnancy rate, both per patient and per transfer cycle, of previous VBT and pVBT were compared, a significant increase in pVBT was observed between the two methods (5.3% vs. 62.8%, 4.4% vs. 47.9%, respectively). The pregnancy rates, implantation rates, and clinical pregnancy rates of the first pVBT were significantly higher in the displaced group than the non-displaced group. The cumulative ongoing pregnancy rate of the displaced group tended to be higher compared to that of the non-displaced group in the first pVBT, although the difference was not statistically significant (51.0% vs. 31.1%, [Formula: see text] = 0.06). Conclusions: Our study demonstrates that pVBT guided by ERA tests may improve pregnancy outcomes in RIF patients whose window of implantation (WOI) is displaced, and its effect may be more pronounced at the first pVBT. The displacement of WOI may be considered to be one of the causes of RIF, and its adjustment may contribute to the improvement of pregnancy outcomes in RIF patients.
背景:子宫内膜容受性分析(ERA)试验指导下的个体化胚胎移植(pET)治疗复发性着床失败(RIF)的临床价值尚不明确。本研究的目的是阐明ERA对RIF患者胚胎移植(ET)日期个性化的功效。方法:对2015年7月至2019年12月期间接受ERA治疗的94例RIF患者进行回顾性研究。比较了相同患者以前玻璃化加热囊胚移植(以前的VBT)和个性化玻璃化加热囊胚移植(pVBT)的妊娠结局。进一步分析非移位组患者(ERA结果为“可接受”病例)和移位组患者(ERA结果为“不可接受”病例)之间每个pVBT的细节。结果:比较既往VBT和pVBT的每名患者和每个转移周期的妊娠率,两种方法的pVBT显著增加(分别为5.3%比62.8%,4.4%比47.9%)。移位组第一pVBT的妊娠率、着床率、临床妊娠率均显著高于未移位组。在第一次pVBT中,移位组的累积持续妊娠率有高于非移位组的趋势,但差异无统计学意义(51.0% vs. 31.1%,[公式:见文]= 0.06)。结论:我们的研究表明,ERA试验指导下的pVBT可以改善着床窗(WOI)移位的RIF患者的妊娠结局,并且在第一次pVBT时效果更明显。WOI的移位可能是RIF发生的原因之一,其调整可能有助于改善RIF患者的妊娠结局。

Background: New vessel formation or neovascularization has been recognized as a feature of endometriosis. Treatment with cabergoline suppresses cell proliferation and vascular-endothelial-growth-factor-mediated angiogenesis, thereby promoting regression of endometriotic lesions. Dienogest, a fourth-generation progestin currently in use for the treatment of endometriosis significantly decreases the volume of endometrial implants. Objective: The objective of the study was to see if cabergoline is as effective as dienogest in reducing the size of endometriomas and pelvic pain in women with endometriosis. Methods: The prospective comparative study was carried out on 56 women with endometrioma (diagnosed by ultrasound), divided by odd and even numbers into two groups. Cabergoline, 0.5 mg tablet twice weekly, was given to 28 women for 3 months. Dienogest, 2 mg tablet daily, was given to 28 women for the same duration. Pre- and post-treatment assessment of endometrioma size by transvaginal sonography and pelvic pain using the 10-cm visual analog scale (VAS) were recorded. Results: The percentage reduction in endometrioma size in women given dienogest was twice that compared to the women given cabergoline. Mean VAS score after 3 months was significantly lower in the cabergoline group compared to dienogest ([Formula: see text] ¡ 0.05). The incidence of nausea, vomiting, and headache were similar in cabergoline and dienogest group. There was polymenorrhea in the cabergoline group and irregular spotting in the dienogest group. Conclusions: Reduction of the size of endometrioma is less apparent with cabergoline than dienogest after 3 months of treatment. Cabergoline yields better results in decreasing pelvic pain compared to dienogest.
背景:新血管形成或新血管形成已被认为是子宫内膜异位症的一个特征。卡麦角林治疗可抑制细胞增殖和血管内皮生长因子介导的血管生成,从而促进子宫内膜异位症病变的消退。Dienogest是目前用于治疗子宫内膜异位症的第四代黄体酮,可显著减少子宫内膜植入物的体积。目的:该研究的目的是观察卡麦角林在减少子宫内膜异位症患者子宫内膜异位症的大小和盆腔疼痛方面是否与地孕素一样有效。方法:对56例经超声诊断为子宫内膜异位瘤的妇女进行前瞻性比较研究,按奇数、偶数分为两组。卡麦角林,0.5 mg片,每周2次,28例,疗程3个月。28名妇女服用Dienogest,每天2毫克,持续相同的时间。记录治疗前和治疗后经阴道超声评估子宫内膜瘤大小和使用10cm视觉模拟评分(VAS)评估盆腔疼痛。结果:与服用卡麦角林的妇女相比,服用地诺孕酮的妇女子宫内膜瘤大小减少的百分比是服用卡麦角林的妇女的两倍。卡麦角林组3个月后VAS平均评分明显低于地诺吉组([公式:见文]±0.05)。卡麦角林组和地诺孕素组的恶心、呕吐和头痛发生率相似。卡麦角林组有月经过多,孕母组有不规则斑点。结论:治疗3个月后,卡麦角林对子宫内膜瘤的缩小效果不如地诺孕素明显。卡麦角林在减少盆腔疼痛方面的效果优于地诺吉思。

Background: Fertility physicians are gatekeepers of assisted reproductive technology (ART) and have immediate control over access to fertility care. However, little is understood about their attitudes and willingness to provide and support different procedures. Therefore, we examined fertility physicians’ perspectives on support of public funding and willingness to provide care in various scenarios. Methods: We invited fertility physicians attending the 8th Congress of the Asia Pacific Initiative on Reproduction (ASPIRE 2018) to participate in a 10-minute survey. Participants completed the survey anonymously and in private. Results: 78 out of 105 fertility physicians from 12 countries completed the survey (response rate = 74.3%). Mean age was 44.9 years (SD = 11.1). A majority of respondents supported public funding for ART: 76.3% for intrauterine insemination and 80.5% for in vitro fertilization. For controversial procedures, a majority agreed to provide social egg freezing (88.5%) compared to sex selection (25.6%) and gene editing for nonmedical reasons (19.2%), p < 0.001 for both comparisons. Support for public funding was also significantly higher for social egg freezing (51.3%) compared to sex selection (23.1%) and gene editing for nonmedical reasons (20.5%), p < 0.001 for both comparisons. For eligibility criteria, willingness to provide treatment to single women (50.0%) was significantly higher compared to other nontraditional family structures — single men (33.3%), p < 0.001, male homosexual couples (33.3%), p = 0.002, female homosexual couples (32.1%), p = 0.001 and unmarried heterosexual couples (32.1%), p = 0.004. Consistently, support for public finding was significantly higher for single women (32.1%) compared to single men (23.1%), p = 0.013, male homosexual couples (20.5%), p = 0.020, and unmarried heterosexual couples (20.5%), p = 0.006. Conclusions: These results show support for public funding and conservative opinions toward ART for nontraditional family structures among physicians in the Asia-Pacific region.
背景:生育医生是辅助生殖技术(ART)的守门人,对获得生育护理有直接的控制权。然而,人们对他们提供和支持不同程序的态度和意愿知之甚少。因此,我们调查了生育医生对公共资金支持的观点和在各种情况下提供护理的意愿。方法:我们邀请参加第八届亚太生殖倡议大会(ASPIRE 2018)的生育医生参与10分钟的调查。参与者以匿名方式私下完成了调查。结果:来自12个国家的105名生育医生中有78人完成了调查,回复率为74.3%。平均年龄44.9岁(SD = 11.1)。大多数应答者支持公共资金用于抗逆转录病毒治疗:76.3%的人支持宫内人工授精,80.5%的人支持体外受精。对于有争议的程序,大多数人同意提供社会卵子冷冻(88.5%),而性别选择(25.6%)和非医学原因的基因编辑(19.2%),两种比较的p < 0.001。与性别选择(23.1%)和非医学原因的基因编辑(20.5%)相比,社会卵子冷冻(51.3%)对公共资金的支持也明显更高,两种比较的p < 0.001。在资格标准方面,单身女性(50.0%)提供治疗的意愿显著高于其他非传统家庭结构——单身男性(33.3%),p < 0.001;男性同性恋伴侣(33.3%),p = 0.002;女性同性恋伴侣(32.1%),p = 0.001;未婚异性恋伴侣(32.1%),p = 0.004。与此同时,支持公开调查的单身女性(32.1%)明显高于单身男性(23.1%),p = 0.013,男性同性恋伴侣(20.5%),p = 0.020,未婚异性恋伴侣(20.5%),p = 0.006。结论:这些结果表明,亚太地区的医生支持公共资金,对非传统家庭结构的抗逆转录病毒治疗持保守态度。

Background: Tubal evaluation is an integral part of the evaluation of female infertility. Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is the radiographic evaluation of the uterus and fallopian tubes, which has been used as a first-line test for tubal assessment since 1920s. Laparoscopy is considered to be the gold standard for the diagnosis and management of tubo-peritoneal pathology. The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the diagnostic value of both HSG and laparoscopy for assessment of tubal occlusion. Methods: This is a prospective cross-sectional study. Laparoscopic chromopertubation was conducted on 125 consecutive infertile women who attended the “Infertility Management Center” from October 2018 to September 2019. All patients had HSG performed in the radiology department of different hospitals. Laparoscopic findings were used as a reference standard to analyze the findings of HSG for tubal occlusion. Data were analyzed by SPSS software (version 16). Results: Normal HSG findings were seen in 53 patients (42.4%). Unilateral tubal occlusion was present in 38 (30.7%), and bilateral occlusion in 34 (27.2%) patients. Laparoscopy showed normal findings in 85 (68.0%) patients. Unilateral tubal occlusion was demonstrated in laparoscopy in 27 (21.6%) and bilateral tubal occlusion in 13 (10.4%) patients. HSG findings for diagnosis of tubal occlusion was true positive in 30 (24%) cases, false positive in 42 (33.6%) cases, false negative in 10 (8%) cases, and true negative in 43 (34.4%) cases in comparison to laparoscopy findings. Sensitivity of HSG was found to be 75.0%, specificity 50.6%, and accuracy 58.4%. Positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 41.7% and 81.1%, respectively. Conclusion: HSG is widely used for tubal assessment in Bangladesh as it is a relatively inexpensive, low-risk office procedure. But it has a low specificity and positive predictive value with a relatively high negative predictive value. Laparoscopy, on the other hand, is preferable when there is high suspicion of tubal pathology.
背景:输卵管评估是女性不孕症评估的重要组成部分。子宫输卵管造影(HSG)是子宫和输卵管的影像学评估,自20世纪20年代以来一直被用作输卵管评估的一线检查。腹腔镜检查被认为是诊断和处理输卵管-腹膜病理的金标准。本研究的目的是评估和比较输卵管造影和腹腔镜检查对输卵管阻塞的诊断价值。方法:这是一项前瞻性横断面研究。对2018年10月至2019年9月在“不孕症管理中心”就诊的125例连续不孕症患者进行腹腔镜彩色输卵管检查。所有患者均在不同医院放射科行输卵管造影。以腹腔镜检查结果作为参考标准,分析输卵管闭塞的输卵管造影结果。数据分析采用SPSS (version 16)软件。结果:正常HSG 53例(42.4%)。单侧输卵管阻塞38例(30.7%),双侧输卵管阻塞34例(27.2%)。85例(68.0%)患者腹腔镜检查结果正常。单侧输卵管阻塞27例(21.6%),双侧输卵管阻塞13例(10.4%)。与腹腔镜检查结果相比,HSG诊断输卵管阻塞的真阳性30例(24%),假阳性42例(33.6%),假阴性10例(8%),真阴性43例(34.4%)。HSG的敏感性为75.0%,特异性为50.6%,准确性为58.4%。阳性预测值为41.7%,阴性预测值为81.1%。结论:输卵管造影在孟加拉国被广泛用于输卵管评估,因为它是一种相对便宜、低风险的办公室手术。但特异性较低,阳性预测值较高,阴性预测值较高。另一方面,当高度怀疑输卵管病变时,腹腔镜检查更可取。

Background: Following on from Part 1 of these companion articles, which described the maternal and paternal cohort of the Middle East Area of Operations (MEAO) Census Study, this manuscript aims to describe fetal and infant characteristics and outcomes from the self-report data, including live deliveries, stillbirths, all other pregnancy losses, and unknown outcomes. Methods: A descriptive analysis was performed on the clinical variables where data were reported. Descriptive statistics (means, frequencies, percentiles) were used to describe the occurrence of adverse gestational outcomes. Odds ratios were also calculated for perinatal outcomes. Infant characteristics and outcomes were evaluated using statistical analysis software IBM SPSS v26. Results: There were 15,417 pregnancies reported by respondents to the MEAO Census Study. Of these, 74% (11,367) resulted in a live delivery, 0.75% in a stillbirth, and 20% in another type of pregnancy loss (ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, termination). The unadjusted odds of an adverse perinatal outcome were higher in the MEAO Census population than in the general Australian population, notably stillbirth (OR = 3.11, 95% CI 2.56–3.80), perinatal death (OR = 3.80, 95% CI 3.26–4.44), and neonatal death (OR = 5.43, 95% CI 4.27–6.91). There were 499 cases of birth defects reported and 85 cases of childhood cancer in the MEAO population. The unadjusted odds of childhood cancer were slightly higher (OR = 1.7, 95% CI 0.09–3.28) in the MEAO population, and the unadjusted odds of birth defects were lower (OR = 0.52, 95% CI 0.40–0.68). The male:female infant sex ratio of babies born to respondents was 102 (5939 males:5823 females). Conclusions: The MEAO Census Study presents a generally reassuring picture of reproductive health for women serving in the Australian Defence Force with regards to the risk of pregnancy loss and perinatal outcomes. The increased odds of perinatal and neonatal death and stillbirth are worthy of further study and evaluation, as is the increase in likelihood of childhood cancer in the offspring of MEAO veterans.
背景:继上述相关文章的第1部分(描述了中东手术地区(MEAO)人口普查研究的母亲和父亲队列)之后,本文旨在描述胎儿和婴儿的特征和自报告数据的结果,包括活产、死产、所有其他妊娠损失和未知结果。方法:对报告数据的临床变量进行描述性分析。描述性统计(平均值、频率、百分位数)用于描述不良妊娠结局的发生。还计算了围产期结局的优势比。采用统计分析软件IBM SPSS v26对婴儿的特征和结局进行评价。结果:MEAO人口普查调查对象共报告15417例妊娠。其中,74%(11367例)为活产,0.75%为死产,20%为其他类型的妊娠丢失(异位妊娠、流产、终止妊娠)。MEAO普查人群中不良围产期结局的未调整几率高于澳大利亚一般人群,特别是死产(OR = 3.11, 95% CI 2.56-3.80)、围产期死亡(OR = 3.80, 95% CI 3.26-4.44)和新生儿死亡(OR = 5.43, 95% CI 4.27-6.91)。在MEAO人口中报告了499例出生缺陷和85例儿童癌症。在MEAO人群中,未调整的儿童癌症几率略高(OR = 1.7, 95% CI 0.09-3.28),未调整的出生缺陷几率较低(OR = 0.52, 95% CI 0.40-0.68)。调查对象出生婴儿男女性别比为102(男5939:女5823)。结论:在澳大利亚国防军服役妇女的生殖健康方面,MEAO人口普查研究总体上令人放心,涉及流产风险和围产期结果。围产期和新生儿死亡和死产的几率增加值得进一步研究和评估,MEAO退伍军人后代患儿童癌症的可能性也值得进一步研究和评估。

Methods: A descriptive analysis was performed on the clinical variables where data were reported. Descriptive statistics (means, frequencies, percentiles) were used to describe the occurrence of adverse gestational outcomes. Odds ratios were also calculated for perinatal outcomes. Infant characteristics and outcomes were evaluated using statistical analysis software IBM SPSS v26. Results: There were 15,417 pregnancies reported by respondents to the MEAO Census Study. Of these, 74% (11,367) resulted in a live delivery, 0.75% in a stillbirth, and 20% in another type of pregnancy loss (ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, termination). The unadjusted odds of an adverse perinatal outcome were higher in the MEAO Census population than in the general Australian population, notably stillbirth (OR = 3.11, 95% CI 2.56–3.80), perinatal death (OR = 3.80, 95% CI 3.26–4.44), and neonatal death (OR = 5.43, 95% CI 4.27–6.91). There were 499 cases of birth defects reported and 85 cases of childhood cancer in the MEAO population. The unadjusted odds of childhood cancer were slightly higher (OR = 1.7, 95% CI 0.09–3.28) in the MEAO population, and the unadjusted odds of birth defects were lower (OR = 0.52, 95% CI 0.40–0.68).
