Objective To investigate the clinical significance of gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) under laparoscope. Methods The gonadotropin was adopted to induce superovulation and the spermatic fluid was managed with the swim-up method. After oviums were dislodged by puncture under laparoscope, gametes were transplanted by intubating the fallopian tube. Results Among a total of 19 patients, 4 were pregnant, the pregnancy rate being 21.1% (4/19). Three women had a delivery at term and 1 had an abortion. No serious complications were seen. Of the 15 unfertilized patients, normal pregnancy was observed within 6 months after surgery in 5 patients, the circle pregnancy rate being 5.6% (5/89). Conclusions GIFT under laparoscope is a practical assisted reproductive technique (ART) that may achieve a relatively high pregnancy rate. Some other pelvic diseases resulting in infertility can be treated simultaneously, which contributes to natural fertilization in the future.

Objective To determine risk factors of environment and lifestyles involved in acute hematology departments of 29 secondary-care and tertiary-care hospitals in Shanghai. There were 206 hospitalized patients with de novo AML during June 2003 to April 2007 meeting the diagnostic criteria for AML by the World Health Organization, excluding those with definite history of radiotherapy or chemotherapy, and 412 age- and gender-matched controls with non-hematological other diseases from the same hospitals. All the participants were interviewed face-to-face using a standard structured questionnaire,including personal medical history, family medical history, history of medications, traditional Chinese herb medicines, exposure to occupational hazards, lifestyle factors, etc. in the past five years prior to onset of the disease. Conditional univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify risk factors for AML. Results Logistic regression analysis showed that taking traditional Chinese herb medicine might be a protective factor for AML, with an odds ratio (OR) of 0. 39 and its 95% confidence interval (CI) of 0. 16-0. 98. Potential risk factors for AML included history of diabetes and taking hypoglycemic agents ( OR: 1.39, 95% CI: 0.67 -2. 87), occupational exposure to metal ( OR: 1.73, 95% CI: 0. 77 -3. 91 ), glue, paint and other coating materials, etc. ( OR: 1.72, 95% CI: 0. 93 - 3.2), raising animals (OR: 1.33, 95% CI: 0. 79 -2. 24). No association of living within a distance of 100 meters from high voltage power transmission lines, home renovation and decoration in the past year, hair dyeing, smoking,alcohol drinking with AML in adults was found. Conclusions Factors mentioned above such as occupational exposure to metal, glue, paint and other coating materials potentially increase risk for AML in adults,however taking traditional Chinese herb medicine is possibly a protective factor for it.
