Objective To compare the laboratory and clinical results between unstimulated in vitro maturation (IVM) and IVM converted from in vitro fertilization (IVF) in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and non-PCOS patients.Methods We divided 591 IVM cycles in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical Univesity from Jan.2008 to Dec.2013 into 4 groups:group A1B1,PCOS patients underwent unstimulated IVM protocol,240 cycles; group A1B2,PCOS patients underwent IVM converted from conventional stimulated IVF protocol,153 cycles; group A2B1,non-PCOS patients underwent unstimutlated IVM protocol,103 cycles; group A2B2,non-PCOS patient underwent IVM converted from conventional stimulated IVF protocol,95 cycles.Multiple linear regression method and binary logistic regression method were used to assess the influence of PCOS and protocols for IVM on laboratory and clinical outcomes.Results The mean number of oocytes retrieved was positively related with PCOS [partial regression coefficient (B)=3.37,P<0.01].The maturation rate of oocytes was positively related with hCG-prime prior to oocyte aspiration (B=0.05,P=0.010).High-quality embryo rate was positively related with PCOS and IVM converted from IVF (B=0.08,P=0.010; B=0.09,P=0.001),as well as implantation rate related with them (B=0.07,P=0.010; B=0.10,P<0.01).PCOS and IVM converted from IVF improved hCG positive (hCG>10 U/L) rate (OR=1.636,95%CI:1.113-2.204,P<0.05; OR=1.861,95%CI:1.307-2.649,P<0.05) and the clinical pregnancy rate (OR=1.507,95%CI:1.041-2.240,P<0.05; OR=1.881,95%CI:1.312-2.696,P<0.05).IVM converted from IVF protocol decreased the spontaneous abortion rate (OR=0.490,95%CI:0.245-0.978,P<0.05).Multiple gestation rate and ectopic pregnancy rate were not affected by PCOS condition and protocol used (P>0.05).Conclusions PCOS and IVM converted from IVF protocol improved the high-quality embryo rate,implantation rate,hCG positive rate and clinical pregnancy rate.IVM converted from IVF protocol reduced the spontaneous abortion rate.PCOS patients may be more suitable for the IVM treatment.No matter PCOS or non-PCOS patients,IVM converted from IVF protocol had better pregnancy outcome than that of unstimulated cycle.

Objective To compare the outcomes of in-vitro maturation (IVM) and in-vitro fertilization (IVF) after early follicular phase gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-a)down-regulation in infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Methods From July 2010 to December 2012,72 infertile patients with PCOS undergoing assisted reproductive technology treatment in the Affiliated First Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were enrolled in this study.The patients were divided into 2 groups,which were patients with early follieular phase down-regulation IVM (36 cases) at IVM group and early follicular phase down-regulation long protocol IVF (36 cases) at IVF group.The laboratory parameters and clinical outcomes were compared between two groups.Results (1) Lab parameters:a total of 442 oocytes were retrieved in group IVM,and 560 were in group IVF.The rate of mature oocytes of 83.8% (469/560) and high-quality embryos of 70.9% (212/299) at group IVF were significantly higher than that of group IVM [54.1% (239/442) and 50.7% (73/144),retrospectively,P <0.01].In group IVM,the average duration of gonadotropin (Gn) was (2.8 ± 1.5) days and the average dosage of Gn was (285 ± 169) U,which were significantly lower than (11.0 ± 1.0) days and (1499 ±165) U in group IVF (P <0.01).The mean number of oocytes retrieved 12.8 ± 2.5,fertilization rate of 64.8% (155/239),and implantation rate of 31% (23/74) in group IVM and 15.6 ±3.1,65.5% (307/469),31% (23/74) in group IVF,which did not reach statistical difference (P >0.05).(2) Clinical outcomes:the clinical pregnancy rate (17/31,55%) of IVF group was not significantly higher than that 44% (14/32) at IVM group (P > 0.05).The abortion rate was 1/17 at Group IVF and 1/14 in group IVM,which did not show statistical difference.Women at IVM group has no ovarian hyper-stimulation syndrome (OHSS) cycle,group IVF has 31% (11/36) cycles presented moderate and severe OHSS.Conclusions Infertile patients with PCOS undergoing IVM and IVF treatment after early follicular phase GnRH-a down-regulation can get satisfactory laboratory and clinical outcome.In addition to short treatment cycle,IVM can also avoid the occurrence of OHSS completely,but it has a rising trend in the abortion rate.IVF has a high incidence of OHSS,meanwhile,it increases the dosage of gonadotropins.

【Objective】 To compare the current standards and explore the influencing factors for hemolysis rate of leukocyte-reduced red blood cells at the end of the preservation period, in order to formulate reasonable internal control indicators. 【Methods】 A retrospective analysis was performed on hemolysis rate of 427 samples of leukocyte-reduced red blood cells at the end of the preservation period in Nanning Blood Center from 2015 to 2022. Compared with the current standard for hemolysis rate at the end of the preservation period (GB 18469-2012 Quality Requirements for Whole Blood and Component Blood), the differences were analyzed, and the factors influncing the hemolysis rate were analyzed in terms of different blood donor groups. 【Results】 1) Among the 427 samples, the hemolysis rate of 418 (97.89%) did not exceed 0.4%, all lower than 0.8%; 2)the hemolysis rate of the male group was higher than that of the female group; 3) the hemolysis rate of the 18-29 years old group was lower than that of the 30-39 year old group and the 40-60 year old group, with statistically significant difference; 4) in terms of occupation, the hemolysis rate of students was the lowest, and the differences between groups were statistically significant; 5) no statistical significance was found in ethnicity and blood type. 【Conclusion】 Statistics indicated that gender, age, blood donation volume and occupation of blood donors were the influencing factors of hemolysis rate. The current standard is obviously higher in the qualified range of blood quality control in Nanning. It is advisable to formulate a reasonable quality control strategy with internal control index of hemolysis rate set <0.4%, which is conducive to making accurate evaluation of internal quality control and ensuring blood safety.
