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.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the clinical features and prognosis of patients with massive pulmonary hemoptysis.Methods Patients with massive hemoptysis,who received bronchial artery embolization at authors'hospital between 2016 and 2018,were collected for this study.According to the gender,the patients were divided into female group(n=68)and male group(n=195).The primary disease,age at onset,length of hospital stay,bleeding site,embolization agent used,recurrence rate of hemoptysis,and mortality were calculated.SPSS.27.0 software was used to analyze the correlation between the age of onset,length of hospital stay,gender,recurrence of hemoptysis and death.RStudio4.2.2 software was used to make a normogram of patient's recurrent hemoptysis and death.Results The primary diseases in the top three were bacterial infection,bronchiectasis and old pulmonary tuberculosis,the incidences of them in the female group were 50%,22%and 15%respectively and in the male group were 43%,21%and 21%respectively.The mean age at onset in the female group was(54.6±16.8)years and in the male group was(60.1±14.0)years.The proportions of the bleeding site in the left lung,right lung,or both lungs in the female group were 6%,21%and 73%respectively and in the male group were 17%,21%and 62%respectively.The proportions of the used embolization agent of 350-560 μm PVA particles and 300-500 μm microspheres in the female group were 31%and 24%respectively and in the male group were 50%and 17%respectively.In the patients who had recurrent hemoptysis,the primary diseases in the top three were old pulmonary tuberculosis,pulmonary bacterial infection and bronchiectasis,the incidences of them in the female group were 33%,33%and 33%respectively and in the male group were 44%,34%and 10%respectively.The causes of death were much complex,in which pulmonary infection played an important role.Conclusion In patients with massive pulmonary hemoptysis,there are differences in the primary disease,bleeding site,applicable embolization agent,recurrence rate of hemoptysis,and mortality between females and males,in addition,the age is an independent influencing factor for recurrent hemoptysis and death.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:636-641)
