Objective:To explore the safety and long-term efficacy of transvaginal reconstructive pelvic surgery (TVRPS) in ≥70-year-old women with severe pelvic organ prolapse (POP).Methods:A single-center, prospective cohort study was conducted on 343 elderly women patients with severe POP who received TVRPS at the Fourth Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Medical School of Chinese PLA from March 2007 to September 2024. There were 297 cases (86.6%, 297/343) of Ⅲ degree and 46 cases (13.4%, 46/343) of Ⅳ degree prolapse respectively. Among them, anterior pelvic prolapse accounted for 80.8% (277/343), and those with prolapse in two or more sites accounted for 30.0% (103/343). The age was (74.2±3.4) years (range: 70 to 89 years old). There were 300 cases (87.5%, 300/343) with more than one internal medicine disease. Preoperative general conditions were assessed using American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification system (ASA) and American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-frailty index (ACS NSQIP-FI). TVRPS surgeries included transvaginal hysterectomy, salpingooophorectomy, high uterosacral ligament suspension, sacrospinous ligament fixation, native tissue and mesh repair of the anterior and posterior vaginal walls, mid-urethral sling for anti-urinary incontinence, and levator anal muscle folding suture and perineal repair. Perioperative complications were evaluated using Clavien-Dindo classification system. The objective effect of TVRPS was determined based on pelvic organ prolapse quantification system (POP-Q), and the subjective results were evaluated using pelvic floor distress inventory-short form 20 (PFDI-20), pelvic floor impact questionnaire-short form 7 (PFIQ-7) and patient global impression of improvement (PGI-I).Results:All patients had a preoperative ASA grade of ≤gradeⅡ, and ACS NSQIP-FI score of ≤0.27. All patients safely and successfully underwent all TVRPS surgeries. The operation time was (154.2±43.2) minutes. The perioperative morbidity and mortality rate were 0.6% (2/343) and 0 (0/343) respectively. None of the patient needed blood transfusion. The follow-up time was (7.5±4.3) years, with the longest being 17 years. Thirty-four cases (9.9%, 34/343) were lost to follow-up, and 22 cases (6.4%, 22/343) died of internal diseases during the follow-up period. The point values of Aa, Ba, C, Ap and Bp in the POP-Q system were significantly decreased after the operation (all P<0.01), the genital hiatus was significantly shortened (all P<0.01), and the perineal body was significantly elongated (all P<0.01). The scores of PFDI-20 and PFIQ-7 were significantly lower than those before the operation (all P<0.01). There were 332 cases (96.8%, 332/343) with an overall symptom impression improvement score of PGI-I≤2. Conclusion:The results on 343 elderly women with severe POP aged an average of 74.2 years show that for elderly POP patients who still have the desire to preserve the vagina and do not meet the conditions for colpocleisis, as long as there is a comprehensive understanding and strict evaluation of the overall condition before the operation, TVRPS is a safe, feasible and long-lasting therapeutic procedure.

Objective:To analyze the changing trends and international differences in the incidence and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (HDP) in China from 1990 to 2021 based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database.Methods:The data were derived from the GBD database, covering the incidence and DALY data of HDP in countries or regions around the world. Descriptive statistics were used to compare the differences in disease burden between China and different regions of Europe, America and other developed countries, and to analyze the disease burden characteristics of women of childbearing age in different age groups (every 5 years). The Joinpoint regression model was used to identify trend change points. The age-period-cohort model was used to analyze the independent effects of age, period and birth cohort.Results:(1) From 1990 to 2021, the incidence of HDP in China showed an overall downward trend, from 387.18/100 000 in 1990 to 216.35/100 000 in 2021. Compared with the global incidence rate (1990: 1 167.28/100 000; 2021: 923.48/100 000), the incidence rate of HDP in China was relatively low, but it was still higher than that in some developed countries. (2) The analysis of the Joinpoint regression model showed that the incidence rate of HDP in different age groups first decreased, then increased, and finally leveled off. The connection point with the lowest point was in 2005. DALY showed a continuous downward trend in all age groups. Among them, the decline in maternal DALY of pregnant women in all age groups from 15 to 39 years old was more obvious. (3) The age-period-cohort effect model showed that the incidence rate and DALY of HDP in women of childbearing age aged 20 to 24 years reached their peak.Conclusions:The burden of HDP in China continues to decrease, and the disease prevention and control has achieved remarkable results, but the incidence rate is still higher than that in some developed countries. It is suggested that personalized interventions should be developed for different risk groups to further reduce the burden of disease.

Objectives:To investigate the effect of circular RNA (circRNA) hsa_circ_0019217 on the biological function of chorionic trophoblast cell line (HTR8/SVneo) and its mechanism in the occurrence of pre-eclampsia (PE).Methods:The circRNA expression database was used to analyze the differentially expressed circRNA in placental tissues of PE women. The expression levels of hsa_circ_0019217 and miR-526b-5p were detected by reverse transcription real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and the subcellular localization of hsa_circ_0019217 was detected by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The proliferation, migration and invasion of trophoblast cells were detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and transwell assay. Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) were used to verify the effects of hsa_circ_0019217, miR-526b-5p and decorin (DCN) on matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP2), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP2), placental growth factor (PlGF) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) protein expression levels. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay and RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) assay were used to verify the interaction between hsa_circ_0019217, miR-526-5p and DCN.Results:(1) The analysis of circRNA expression database showed that the expression level of hsa_circ_0019217 was significantly increased in the placental tissues of PE women (fold change=67, P<0.05), and it was mainly located in the cytoplasm. (2) Knockdown of hsa_circ_0019217 promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion of HTR8/SVneo cells, increased the expression levels of MMP2 and PlGF, and decreased the expression levels of TIMP2 and hCG in HTR8/SVneo cells. (3) Hsa_circ_0019217 targeted adsorption of miR-526b-5p, and inhibition of miR-526b-5p reduced the proliferation, migration and invasion of HTR8/SVneo cells. The expression levels of MMP2 and PlGF in HTR8/SVneo cells were increased, and the expression levels of TIMP2 and hCG were decreased. Hsa_circ_0019217 knockdown and inhibiting miR-526b-5p could reverse the effect of hsa_circ_0019217 knockdown on promoting the proliferation, migration and invasion of HTR8/SVneo cells, and reversed the effect of hsa_circ_0019217 knockdown on the protein expression levels of MMP2, PlGF, TIMP2 and hCG. (4) miR-526b-5p targeted DCN in HTR8/SVneo cells, hsa_circ_0019217 knockdown reduced the expression level of DCN, and inhibiting miR-526b-5p increased the expression level of DCN. When hsa_circ_0019217 and miR-526b-5p were inhibited simultaneously, there was no significant change in the protein expression level of DCN. (5) Overexpression of miR-526b-5p promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion of HTR8/SVneo cells, while overexpression of DCN inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of HTR8/SVneo cells. Simultaneous overexpression of miR-526b-5p and DCN reversed the effects of miR-526b-5p overexpression on cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Overexpression of miR-526b-5p increased the expression levels of MMP2 and PlGF and decreased the expression levels of TIMP2 and hCG in HTR8/SVneo cells. Overexpression of DCN reduced the expression levels of MMP2 and PlGF and increased the expression levels of TIMP2 and hCG. Overexpression of miR-526b-5p and DCN reversed the effects of miR-526b-5p on the expression of these proteins. Conclusion:Hsa_circ_0019217 regulates the expression of DCN by adsorption of miR-526b-5p, thereby affecting the proliferation, migration and invasion of trophoblast cells and regulating the protein expression levels of MMP2, TIMP2, PlGF and hCG, which might be used as a target for early prevention of PE.

Objective:To investigate the status of allostatic load (AL) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and its influence on the clinical outcomes of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer.Methods:This was a prospective study. By using convenient sampling method, 421 patients with PCOS (PCOS group) and 372 control infertility patients (control group) in the Reproductive Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University from April 2022 to January 2024 were investigated for basic information, physical examination, laboratory examination and follow-up of clinical outcomes. The total score of AL was calculated using 16 related indicators of cardiovascular system, metabolic system and immune system, and AL>3 was used as the judgment criteria for the high level AL group and the low level AL group. The differences in general data, embryo development and clinical outcomes between the groups were compared.Results:There were 222 cases (52.7%, 222/421) in PCOS low level AL group and 199 cases (47.3%, 199/421) in PCOS high level AL group. There were 214 patients (57.5%, 214/372) in the control low level AL group and 158 patients (42.5%, 158/372) in the control high level AL group. Embryo development outcomes: number of oocytes retrieved (median: 12, 12, 19, 14, respectively; P<0.001), number of two pronuclei (median: 8, 7, 11, 8, respectively; P<0.001), number of fertilization (median: 9, 9, 13, 10, respectively; P<0.001), number of metaphase of meiosis Ⅱ oocytes (median: 9, 8, 13, 10, respectively; P<0.001), number of transferable embryos (median: 5, 5, 7, 6, respectively; P<0.001), number of high-quality embryos (median: 4, 3, 6, 5, respectively; P<0.001), gonadotropin(Gn) starting dosage (median: 150, 200, 150, 200 U, respectively; P<0.001), total dosage of Gn (median: 1 800, 2 075, 1 575, 2 025 U, respectively; P<0.001), duration of Gn used (median: 10, 10, 10, 10 days, respectively; P=0.027) in the control low level AL group, control high level AL group, PCOS low level AL group and PCOS high level AL group were significantly different. Pairings between groups showed that number of oocytes retrieved, number of two pronuclei, number of fertilization, number of metaphase of meiosis Ⅱ oocytes and number of transferable embryos in PCOS high level AL group were lower than those in PCOS low level AL group (all P<0.05); Gn starting dosage and total dosage of Gn in PCOS low level AL group were lower than those in the other three groups (all P<0.05); duration of Gn used in PCOS high level AL group was higher than that PCOS low level AL group ( P<0.05). Clinical outcomes: the control low level AL group, control high level AL group, PCOS low level AL group and PCOS high level AL group underwent fresh transplantation [27.4% (57/208), 24.4% (38/156), 15.1% (32/212), 17.1% (33/193), respectively; P=0.006] and the proportion of transplanted day 5 embryos [82.7% (172/208), 77.6% (121/156), 91.0% (193/212), 86.5% (167/193), respectively; P=0.018] were statistically significant. There were no significant differences in fertilization rate, biochemical pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate, multiple pregnancy rate and early abortion rate among the four groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The high level of AL in PCOS patients may affect the outcomes of embryo development, and more attention should be paid to AL in PCOS patients to reduce stress.

Objective:To investigate the mode and timing of delivery in pregnant women with complex fetal congenital heart disease (CHD) detected by prenatal ultrasound.Methods:The clinical data of 123 fetuses with complex CHD detected by prenatal ultrasound in Peking University People′s Hospital from January 2016 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Pregnant women with indications for prenatal diagnosis underwent G-banding karyotype analysis, single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNP arrry) or whole exome sequencing after informed consent. Integrated managements were provided for pregnant women with complex CHD during pregnancy and perinatal period, and to determine the mode and timing of delivery. Infants with complex CHD received timely treatment or referral after birth.Results:The gestational age at ultrasound diagnosis of the 123 fetuses with complex CHD was (23.7±3.4) weeks. There were 11 cases (8.9%) of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC), 14 cases (11.4%) of anomalous pulmonary valve (PVA), 7 cases (5.7%) of right ventricle double outlet (RVDO), 13 cases (10.6%) of anomalous aortic arch, 69 cases (56.1%) of transposition of the great arteries (TGA), 9 cases (7.3%) of other types. All cases were treated with fetal preservation after prenatal consultation. Among the 72 cases undergoing prenatal diagnosis, 9 cases (12.5%) had chromosomal variations. Fifty-five cases (44.7%, 55/123) underwent trial of labor, of which 46 cases (37.4%, 46/123) had successful vaginal delivery, including 6 cases of forceps delivery, and other 9 cases of failed trial of labor transferred to cesarean section. A total of 77 cases of pregnant women underwent cesarean section. Except for the 21 cases of pregnant women who asked for cesarean section, the cesarean section rate of pregnant women with complex CHD was 45.5% (56/123), which was not significantly different from the average cesarean section rate of the same period in our hospital (40.2%; χ2=7.34, P=0.270). The gestational age at delivery of the 123 fetuses with complex CHD was (37.9±1.4) weeks, the birth weight of the neonates was (3 099±480) g, and the umbilical artery blood pH value was 7.31±0.05. The oxygen saturation of 86 cases before and after alprostadil infusion were (72.8±6.0)% and (80.5±5.0)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=4.38, P<0.001). One hundred and fourteen children underwent surgical treatment, 112 of them (98.2%) had good postoperative reexamination. Only 2 cases (1.8%) died after surgery, and 14.0% (16/114) had the possibility of secondary surgery. Conclusions:Fetal complex CHD is not an indication for cesarean section, and the delivery mode could be selected according to the obstetric situation. If the mother and child are in stable condition, the delivery is planned after 39 weeks of gestation. For children with low oxygen saturation after birth, alprostadil could be pumped to maintain the open ductus arteriosus, and timely referral to the pediatric cardiac surgery for subsequent surgical treatment, which could achieve a good prognosis.

Objective:To compare pregnancy outcomes between patients undergoing combined hysteroscopy and hysterosalpingo-contrast sonography (HyCoSy) versus hysteroscopy alone prior to intrauterine insemination, and to evaluate the safety and clinical value of the combined procedure in the diagnosis and treatment of infertility.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data from 385 patients who underwent hysteroscopy at Peking University Third Hospital between October 1, 2020 and September 30, 2022, and subsequently received their first cycle of artificial insemination with donor sperm (AID) within six months. Pregnancy outcomes were compared between the group receiving combined hysteroscopy with four-dimensional HyCoSy (hysteroscopy+4D-HyCoSy group) and the group receiving hysteroscopy alone (hysteroscopy group). Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze factors influencing pregnancy outcomes after AID.Results:Among the 385 patients included, 79 achieved clinical pregnancy. The clinical pregnancy rate (24.9%, 53/213) and live birth rate (21.1%, 45/213) in the hysteroscopy+4D-HyCoSy group were significantly higher than those in the hysteroscopy group [15.1% (26/172) and 12.8% (22/172), respectively; all P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in tubal patency between the two groups ( P>0.05); however, the time interval from tubal patency assessment to intrauterine insemination was significantly longer in the hysteroscopy group compared to the hysteroscopy+4D-HyCoSy group (median: 4.0 vs 2.0 months; P<0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that double insemination significantly increased clinical pregnancy rate compared to single insemination ( OR=2.42, 95% CI: 1.02-5.72; P=0.044). An interval exceeding 6 months between tubal patency assessment and intrauterine insemination was identified as a risk factor for reduced clinical pregnancy ( OR=0.35, 95% CI: 0.14-0.92; P=0.047). Additionally, neither the time interval from hysteroscopy to intrauterine insemination nor hysteroscopic findings and pathological diagnoses had significant effects on clinical pregnancy rates (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The combination of hysteroscopy and HyCoSy provides a safe and efficient approach for fertility assessment in infertile patients and improves clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate in intrauterine insemination cycles. Hysteroscopy is recommended for patients with suspected endometrial or intrauterine abnormalities. If no previous tubal patency assessment has been performed or the last assessment was more than six months prior, combined hysteroscopy and HyCoSy may be considered to enhance the likelihood of clinical pregnancy.

Objective:To investigate nationwidely the alert threshold for intraoperative bleeding intervention during dilation and curettage (D&C) for type Ⅱ cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) in the first trimester.Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional survey was conducted. From March 11 to April 14, 2022, obstetricians and gynecologists affiliated with professional associations or institutions of Family Planning Subgroup, Chinese Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Chinese Medical Associaton were surveyed using “Expert Consultation Questionnaire on Alert Threshold for Intraoperative Blood Loss in CSP”. The questionnaire was distributed via WeChat using the Questionnaire Star platform. Observation indicators included professional expertise of participants, preferred treatment modalities for type Ⅱ CSP, and an alert threshold for intraoperative bleeding during D&C.Results:A total of 361 valid questionnaires were collected. Among 361 participants, 73.7% (266/361) held the title of associate chief physician or higher, 61.2% (221/361) had ≥20 years of clinical experience, and 71.8% (178/248) worked in tertiary general hospitals. The most common treatment for type Ⅱ CSP was D&C following pretreatment with medication, uterine artery embolization (UAE), or high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), the percentage was 35.73% (129/361). 51.2% (185/361) of participants recommended an alert threshold of 100 ml for intraoperative bleeding during D&C. Cross-analysis revealed that participants managing <30 cases annually preferred ultrasound-guided D&C (32.0%, 56/175), those managing 30-99 cases or 100-199 cases per year favored pretreatment with medication, UAE or HIFU+D&C (39.0%, 55/141; 52.9%, 18/34), those managing ≥200 cases per year preferred hysteroscopic D&C (4/11). The most frequently selected alert threshold was 100 ml. In the subgroup analysis of participants with ≥100 cases annual admissions for CSP, 46.7% (21/45) of participants chose medication, UAE or HIFU pretreatment+D&C, while 53.3% (24/45) supported setting the alert threshold at 100 ml.Conclusions:The preferred treatment for type Ⅱ CSP is D&C following medication, UAE or HIFU pretreatment, with an intraoperative bleeding alert threshold of 100 ml. Timely alerts and proactive interventions could reduce injury severity, improve outcomes, and optimize CSP management strategies.

Objective:To investigate the dynamic characteristics of human papillomavirus (HPV) genomic integration during cervical lesion progression and the clinical value of HPV integration detection in stratify HPV-positive women, and to explore its molecular mechanisms in cervical carcinogenesis.Methods:A prospective cohort study was designed to enroll high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) positive women who underwent cervical cancer screening in Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical School and Nanjing Maternity and Child Health Care Hospital from July 2022 to July 2024. Cervical exfoliated cells samples were collected, and HPV whole genome targeted capture and high-throughput sequencing technology were used. The HPV integration patterns, host gene functional region distribution and pathway enrichment characteristics of 157 samples with different cervical lesions grades were analyzed, including 31 cases of normal cervix, 40 cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) Ⅰ, 32 cases of CIN Ⅱ, 42 cases of CIN Ⅲ, and 12 cases of cervical cancer.Results:HR-HPV integration was detected in 80.2% (126/157) of the 157 HR-HPV positive samples. The incidence of HR-HPV integration in cervical cancer patients was 12/12, which was higher than that in normal women (77%, 24/31). The incidence of HPV16 integration was significantly higher in high-grade lesions, and the incidence of HPV16 integration was 43% (18/42) in CIN Ⅲ patients and 8/12 in cervical cancer patients ( P<0.001). A total of 14 438 integration events were detected in 126 samples with HPV integration. The integration sites were mainly distributed in the host intergenic region (51.0%, 7 359/14 438) and intronic region (38.1%, 5 494/14 438), and the integration frequency of viral L1 gene was the highest (28.4%, 4 498/16 781). Functional enrichment analysis showed that HPV integration-related host genes were significantly enriched in transport of small molecules,cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-protein kinase G (PKG) signaling pathway, and purine ribonucleotide biosynthetic process, which synergistically drove carcinogenesis through multiple mechanisms. Conclusions:HPV integration events are significantly associated with the progression of cervical lesions. HPV integrated detection based on cervical exfoliated cells is expected to optimize the current screening strategy, reduce excessive intervention of HPV positive women and facilitate their accurate triage management.

Objective:To evaluate the histocompatibility and biomechanical properties of domestically produced abdominal wall segment polylactic acid absorbable microhook urethral sling in an animal model.Methods:Twenty four rabbits were divided into two groups: polylactic acid microhook sling group ( n=12) and TVT ABBREVO sling group ( n=12). Segments of the slings (abdominal wall portion and urethral portion) were implanted into the rabbit′s abdominal wall and the vesicovaginal space, respectively. Specimens were harvested via euthanasia at postoperative 0 day ( n=3 per group), 4 weeks ( n=3 per group) and 12 weeks ( n=6 per group) for simulated clinical fixation test, histomorphological observation (to evaluate histocompatibility), and biomechanical property analysis (tensile testing). Results:In the simulated clinical fixation test, the domestically produced abdominal wall segment polylactic acid absorbable microhook urethral sling maintained tight integration with the tissue without detachment across the range of abdominal pressure fluctuations associated with normal human activity (1-34 kPa); in contrast, TVT ABBREVO sling shifted and detached under pressure as low as 15 kPa. At 4 weeks post-implantation in the abdominal wall, none displacement occurred in polylactic acid microhook sling group (0/6 sites), whereas displacement occurred in 5 out of 6 in TVT ABBREVO sling group; at 12 weeks, displacement occurred in 4 out of 24 sites (17%) for polylactic acid microhook sling group, compared to 12 out of 24 sites (50%) for TVT ABBREVO sling group. These differences were statistically significant at both time points (both P<0.01). Tensile testing revealed that the sling of polylactic acid microhook sling group exhibited significantly lower thickness, tensile strength, and elongation percentage after implantation for 12 weeks compared to TVT ABBREVO sling group (all P<0.05). Histocompatibility: both sling types integrated well with host tissues after implantation subcutaneously in the abdominal wall and in the vesicovaginal space. Both induced a mild local inflammatory response. No pathological changes were observed in the surrounding tissues for either sling type, and there were no statistically significant differences in histopathological scores between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The domestically produced abdominal wall segment polylactic acid absorbable microhook urethral sling demonstrates favorable histocompatibility. The polylactic acid microhooks significantly enhance the sling′s fixation to the tissue, effectively preventing early postoperative displacement caused by abrupt changes in abdominal pressure, and thus offer superior clinical applicability.

Objective:To investigate the impact of bundled management of late-pregnancy induction strategies on induction time and maternal and perinatal clinical outcomes.Methods:This was a historical control study, including 61 pregnant women before the implementation of the bundled management strategies for induction protocol in September 2024, and 78 pregnant women after the implementation in December 2024, who received regular prenatal check-ups and finally admitted to Peking University Third Hospital for elective induction of labor at term. The rate of successful induction, the rate of reaching active phase, induction to labor length, duration of labor, hospital stay, and adverse maternal and preinatal outcomes and other information were compared between two groups. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting the rates of successful labor induction and reaching active phase. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted for induction to labor length and duration of labor, and the Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the impact of the bundled management strategies for induction strategies on the above indicators.Results:(1) Compared with the group before implementation, the group after implementation had a shorter induction to labor length (median: 47.4 vs 35.1 h), a shorter duration of labor (median: 14.0 vs 10.5 h), and a shorter hospital stay (median: 6 vs 4 d). The rate of successful induction increased [87% (53/61) vs 97% (76/78)], and the rate of reaching active phase increased [70% (43/61) vs 86% (67/78)]; the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). (2) Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the implementation of the bundled management strategies promoted successful induction ( OR=7.299, 95% CI: 1.189-44.800; P=0.032) and reaching active phase ( OR=2.640, 95% CI: 1.003-6.951; P=0.049). A pre-pregnancy body mass index<18.5 kg/m2 promoted successful induction ( OR=9.142, 95% CI: 1.154-72.423; P=0.036). (3) Kaplan-Meier curve analysis indicated that compared with the group before the implementation, the group after the implementation had a significantly shorter induction to labor length ( χ2=13.883, P<0.001) and a shorter duration of labor ( χ2=5.72, P=0.017). Cox proportional hazards regression analysis showed that the implementation of the bundled management strategies for induction protocol was a protective factor for shortening induction to labor length ( HR=1.806, 95% CI: 1.186-2.749; P=0.006) and duration of labor ( HR=1.677, 95% CI: 1.066-2.637; P=0.025). A cervical Bishop score >3 at admission was a protective factor for shortening the induction to labor length ( HR=1.627, 95% CI: 1.110-2.384; P=0.013), and parity was a protective factor for shortening the duration of labor ( HR=3.370, 95% CI: 1.806-6.288; P<0.001). Conclusions:By the implementation of the bundled management strategies for induction protocol, it is possible to promote successful induction of labor and reaching the active phase for pregnant women undergoing induction. This approach also shortens induction to labor length and the duration of labor, without increasing the risk of maternal and perinatal complications.
