Objective To evaluate the characteristics and treatment of ovary torsion after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation.Methods Between Jan.2008 and Dec.2011,5 cases with ovary torsion who underwent ovarian hyperstimulation were retrospectively studied.Results Five cases presented intermittent lower abdominal from I to 38 days after oocyte retrieval.Enlargement of ovary and decreased or absent venous and/or arterial flow were demonstrated by Doppler sonography.Two torsions at left side,two torsions at right side,and one on bilateral side were observed.Three cases give up embryo transplantation,2 cases were pregnant after surgical treatment.One case with partial torsion was successfully treated with simple conservative treatment.Two cases with complete torsion were performed adnexectomy by laparotomy.One case with complete torsion with early pregnancy was managed by laparoscopic adnexectomy.One case with chemical pregnancy was managed by laparoscopic detorsion for left side and excision for right side.Postoperative pathology of ovary tissue all confirmed haemorrhage and necrosis.Conclusions Ovary torsion might occur after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation.The early management on ovary torsion will be benefit for preserving ovarian function.

Objective To know prevalence of depression, its coping strategies and risk factors among infertile women with in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Methods Infertile women with IVF-ET were interviewed with center for epidemiologic studies short depression scale (CES-D10) and an abbreviated version of the COPE inventory (brief COPE), and their basal sex hormone values and estradiol ( E2 ) on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) administration were monitored, as well as the number of oocytes yielded was counted. Results Prevalence of depression was 20.6% in infertile women, higher in those with more than eight years of marriage, infertility for more than six years, and receiving treatment for at least three years. Risk of depression among the women of infertility with monthly family income less than 3000 yuan was 14 times as those with more than 3000 yuan and risk of depression among them due to the factors of their husbands was 2/5 as those not due to men's. Depressive symptoms in the women increased with increasing of their basal follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level, counted egg number and scores of denial items. Occurrence of their depressive symptoms decreased with higher basal E2 levels, and scores of substance use and humor. Conclusions Some infertile women with IVF-ET do have depression and preventive intervention should be aimed at related factors for depression to improve their psychological health.

Objective To sequence follicle stimulating hormone receptro (FSHR) promoter of the ovarian granulocyte and initially research the molecular mechanism of the poor ovarian response. Methods To study the relationship between FSHR promoter mutation of ovarian granulocyte and ovarian respone. The 263 bp DNA fragments before FSHR 5'initiation site in 70 cases of patients with poor ovarian respone and 88 cases of patients with ovarian normal respone who were in the cycle of IVF-ET were sequenced, Results There were 63 cases which occurred 29th site G → A point mutation in 158 women and the mutation rate was 40. 0%. Mutation rate [ 60. 0% ( 42/70 ) ] of 29th site G → A in group of poor ovarian respone was significantly higher(χ2 = 21. 450,P < 0. 01 ) than normal response group [ 23.9% ( 21/88 ) ]. There was no obviously variability ( t = 0. 457, P 0. 05 ) of basic FSH values between two groups [ G/G group was (7.2 ± 2. 3) U/L, G/A & A/A group was (7. 1±2. 0) U/L];there was obviously variability (t = 35. 81 ,P < 0. 05 ) in the number of follicles sinus between two groups ( G/G group was 14. 2±1.3, G/A & A/A group was 4. 5±0. 8 ) ;there was obviously variability ( t = 40. 35, P < 0. 05 ) in the number of ovum pick-up between two groups ( G/G group was 14. 0±1.2, G/A & A/A group was 4. 5±1.1 ) ;there was obviously variability (t =25. 80,P <0.05) of FE2-peak value between two groups [G/G group was (2 865±557) pmol/L, G/A & A/A group was (880±211 ) pmol/L] ;there was obviously variability (t =40. 22 ,P <0. 05) in the number of mature eggs ( G/G group was 13.6±1.2, G/A&A/Agroupwas4.3±0. 9).Conclusion The 29th site of FSHR promoter significantly affect the activity of FSHR promoter. Mutation of G→A can weaken promoter activity, so that ovarian granulocyte poor respone to FSH.
