Hearing loss is the most prevalent disabling disease. Cochlear implantation（CI） serves as the primary intervention for severe to profound hearing loss. This consensus systematically explores the value of genetic diagnosis in the pre-operative assessment and efficacy prognosis for CI. Drawing upon domestic and international research and clinical experience, it proposes an evidence-based medicine three-tiered prognostic classification system（Favorable, Marginal, Poor）. The consensus focuses on common hereditary non-syndromic hearing loss（such as that caused by mutations in genes like GJB2, SLC26A4, OTOF, LOXHD1） and syndromic hereditary hearing loss（such as Jervell & Lange-Nielsen syndrome and Waardenburg syndrome）, which are closely associated with congenital hearing loss, analyzing the impact of their pathological mechanisms on CI outcomes. The consensus provides recommendations based on multiple round of expert discussion and voting. It emphasizes that genetic diagnosis can optimize patient selection, predict prognosis, guide post-operative rehabilitation, offer stratified management strategies for patients with different genotypes, and advance the application of precision medicine in the field of CI.

Objective:To investigate the neurorestorative effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) on neurological function recovery in rats with spinal cord injury and its potential mechanisms.Methods:Ninety adult SD rats were selected and randomly divided into 6 groups using a random number table: sham-operated group ( n=24), spinal cord injury group ( n=24), bFGF group ( n=24), bFGF autophagy pathway validation group ( n=6), bFGF+rapamycin group ( n=6), and bFGF+MHY1485 group ( n=6). A spinal cord injury model was established by impacting the T 10 spinal cord segment using a self-made Allen′s weight-drop impactor. The sham-operated group underwent a 3 cm midline dorsal incision without spinal cord injury; the bFGF group received immediate intrathecal injection of 100 μl bFGF solution (20 μg/L) after injury; the sham surgery group and spinal cord injury group received an equal volume of saline after injury; the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group received the identical treatment as the bFGF group; the bFGF+rapamycin group received the same treatment as the bFGF group with additional intraperitoneal injection of rapamycin (4 mg·kg -1·d -1); the bFGF+MHY1485 group received the identical bFGF treatment plus intraperitoneal injection of MHY1485 (10 mg·kg -1·d -1). At 28 days after injury, the rats were sacrificed and the spinal cord tissue was collected at 5 mm from the injury epicenter for HE staining and pathological observation. At 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after injury, BBB scoring was used to assess hindlimb motor function; P wave latency and P1-N1 wave amplitude were recorded to evaluate neuroelectrophysiological changes; Western blot analysis was performed to detect the expression levels of phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3-II (LC3-II) and evaluate changes in mTOR signaling pathway and autophagy activity. At 28 days after injury, behavioral alterations, neuroelectrophysiological changes, and auctophagy-related protein expression levels were assessed in the bFGF autophagy pathyway validation group, bFGF+rapamycin group and bFGF+MHY1485 group. Results:At 28 days after injury, the sham-operated group exhibited regular nuclear morphology, while the spinal cord injury group showed disordered cell structures and the bFGF group displayed relatively normal nuclear morphology. At 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after injury, the BBB scores in both the spinal cord injury group and bFGF group were lower than those in the sham-operated group ( P<0.01), with higher scores in the bFGF group than those in the spinal cord injury group ( P<0.01). At 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after injury, P-wave latency was longer and P1-N1 wave amplitude was lower in both the spinal cord injury group and bFGF group compared to those in the sham-operated group ( P<0.01), with shorter P-wave latency and higher P1-N1 wave amplitude in the bFGF group compared to those in the spinal cord injury group ( P<0.01). Western blot results indicated that at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after injury, in the spinal cord injury group, p-mTOR/mTOR levels were lower than those in both the sham-operated group and bFGF group ( P<0.01), while LC3-II expression levels were higher ( P<0.01); in the bFGF group, p-mTOR/mTOR levels were higher than those in the spinal cord injury group but lower than those in the sham-operated group ( P<0.01), and LC3-II expression levels were lower than those in the spinal cord injury group but higher than those in the sham-operated group ( P<0.01). At 28 days after injury, the BBB scores were higher in both the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group and bFGF+MHY1485 group than those in the bFGF+rapamycin group ( P<0.01), with higher scores in the bFGF+MHY1485 group than those in the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group ( P<0.01). P-wave latency was shorter in both the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group and bFGF+MHY1485 group than those in the bFGF+rapamycin group ( P<0.01), with shorter P-wave latency in the bFGF+MHY1485 group than that in the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group ( P<0.01). P1-N1 wave amplitude was lower in both the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group and bFGF+MHY1485 group than that in the bFGF+rapamycin group ( P<0.01), with lower P1-N1 wave amplitude in the bFGF+MHY1485 group than that in the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group ( P<0.01). The p-mTOR/mTOR levels were higher in both the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group and bFGF+MHY1485 group than those in the bFGF+rapamycin group ( P<0.01), with higher p-mTOR/mTOR levels in the bFGF+MHY1485 group than those in the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group ( P<0.01). The LC3-II expression levels were higher in both the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group and bFGF+MHY1485 group than those in the bFGF+rapamycin group ( P<0.01), with higher LC3-II expression levels in the bFGF+MHY1485 group than those in the bFGF autophagy pathway validation group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:bFGF can improve the pathological state, motor behavior, and neuroelectrophysiological function in rats with spinal cord injury, for which the mechanism of action may involve downregulating cellular autophagy function by activating the mTOR pathway, thereby inhibiting excessive autophagy to promote neuronal regeneration and repair.

Objective:To analyze the clinical phenotype, sperm morphological characteristics and assisted reproductive therapy efficiency in patients with total globozoospermia.Methods:Four male patients with total globozoospermia were collected during November 2019 to May 2022 from Reproductive Medical and Genetic Center, the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Peripheral blood samples were collected for genetic detection and the whole exome sequencing to explore the pathogenic genes. Semen characteristics, sperm morphology and ultrastructure were analyzed. Four patients were treated with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) combined with artificial oocyte activation (AOA). Conventional ICSI cycles ( n=9) were selected as control group, and the development dynamic parameters were monitored by Time-lapse. The fertilization and embryo development parameters, developmental dynamic parameters and clinical outcomes were analyzed between the two groups. Results:Four patients were complicated with low sperm motility and increased sperm DNA fragmentation. Sperm morphology analysis and acrosome fluorescence staining represented that all the spermatozoas were with a small round head lacked of acrosome. By the transmission electron microscope, it was observed that round-headed spermatozoas were lacked of acrosome completely, loose chromatin structure, vacuolation and other abnormal changes in the head, mitochondrial sheath in neck were reduced arranged in disorder, and the structure of "9+2" of the flagellar axial filament was incomplete. Of the 4 patients, 1 was homozygous deletion of DPY19L2 gene and 1 was homozygous frameshift mutation of DPY19L2 gene. There were no significance differences in fertilization rate, two pronuclei fertilization rate, day 3 high-quality embryo rate, day 6 blastocyst formation rate and day 6 high-quality blastocyst formation rate between total globozoospermia group and control group (all P>0.05). The developmental dynamic parameters as the time at which the second polar body is extruded, the time when both (or the last) PN disappear, two to six discrete cells in the total globozoospermia group were significantly earlier than those in control group, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the embryo cleavage patterns between the two groups ( P>0.05). Among the 4 patients with total globozoospermia, 2 live births with signal healthy male baby were achieved by fresh embryo transfer, and 2 live births with one signal healthy male baby and one healthy female baby were achieved by frozen-thawed embryo transfer respectively. Conclusion:Abnormal morphology characteristics of spermatozoas from patients with total globozoospermia are obvious, patients with total globozoospermia could have favorable clinical outcomes following ICSI combined with AOA.

Objective:To investigate whether the early developmental dynamic phenotypes and kinetic parameters of embryos used for embryo selection are affected by the differences in the components of culture media utilized.Methods:The clinical data of patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) at Center for Reproductive Medicine and Genetics of People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from October 2016 to December 2018 were analyzed in a retrospective cohort study. According to the different culture media utilized, IVF cycles were divided into Cook group and Vitrolife group. After 1∶1 propensity-score matching (PSM), 59 IVF cycles were included in each group. Time-lapse imaging technology was used to analyze the early developmental dynamics of normal fertilized embryos between insemination and 68 h post insemination. Seven developmental dynamic phenotypes of embryos were annotated and the differences in the composition of dynamic phenotypes were compared between the two groups. Thirteen early developmental kinetic parameters were calculated, and the differences in the kinetic parameters of normal dynamic phenotypic embryos between the two groups were compared. According to the two published time-lapse embryo selection algorithms, the hierarchical distribution of normal dynamic phenotypic embryos of two groups was compared. Results:1) In Cook group, the composition of developmental dynamic phenotypes of embryos were 54.0% normal phenotype, 3.0% abnormal first cytokinesis (A1 cyt), 17.4% abnormal cleavage (AC), 5.2% reverse cleavage (RC), 3.2% chaotic cleavage (CC), 3.5% multinucleation (Mn) and 13.7% mixed phenotype, which were 49.3%, 4.0%, 19.1%, 7.5%, 2.1%, 6.4% and 11.6% in Vitrolife group, respectively. No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups for the composition of dynamic developmental phenotypes ( P>0.05). 2) Compared with Vitrolife group, the 13 developmental kinetic parameters (tPNa, tPNf, t2, t3, t4, t5, t6, t7, t8, cc2, s2, t5_PNf and t8_PNf) of normal dynamic phenotype embryos in Cook group were slightly longer, and the average number of blastomeres in 68 h post insemination (EB68hpi) was less, but the differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). 3) No significant difference in hierarchical distribution of embryos was observed between Vitrolife group and Cook group according to algorithm A ( P>0.05). The difference of embryo hierarchical distribution between the two groups was statistically significant according to algorithm B ( P=0.040), the proportion of grade A + embryos in Vitrolife group was higher than that in Cook group [59.8% (125/209) vs. 43.3% (94/217)], and grade C proportion was lower [9.6% (20/209) vs. 20.3% (44/217)]. Conclusion:Although the early developmental dynamic phenotypes and kinetic parameters of embryos were not affected by the differences between Cook and Vitrolife sequential culture media, the applicability of different time-lapse embryo selection algorithms to the culture media is different, the embryo culture media utilized should be considered when selecting or constructing the algorithms.

Objective:To compare the left ventricular (LV) reverse remodeling after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) between patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis and tricuspid aortic valve (TAV) stenosis.Methods:The data of patients who underwent TAVR procedure from March 2013 to December 2018 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University were retrospectively reviewed. The patients were divided into BAV group and TAV group according to cardiac computed tomography. Echocardiographic parameters, including aortic valve peak velocity (Vmax), mean gradient (PGmean), effective orifice area(EOA), interventricular septum diastolic thickness (IVSd), left ventricular posterior wall diastolic thickness (LVPWd), left ventricular end diastolic diameter( LVEDd), LV mass index (LVMI), ΔLVMI%, left ventricular ejection fraction( LVEF) of the two groups at baseline, 1 week, 1 month and 1 year post TAVR procedure were obtained and compared.Results:①Compared with preoperative measurements, both groups showed decreases in Vmax, PGmean and increase in EOA at 1 week, 1 month, 1 year follow-ups(all P<0.05). No significant differences were found in Vmax, PGmean, EOA, moderate/sever perivalvular leakage(PVL), moderate/sever prosthetic-patient mismatch(PPM) between BAV group and TAV group at 1 year. ②Both groups showed decreases in IVSd, LVPWd, LVEDd at 1 month, 1 year post TAVR compared with those before the procedure (all P<0.05), as well as increases in LVEF at 1 week, 1 month, 1 year (all P<0.05). Downward trends of LVMI were detected in both groups within 1 year follow-up( P<0.05). ③Compared to TAV group, BAV group showed smaller baseline LVMI( P<0.05), while there were no significant differences in ΔLVMI% post TAVR for all follow-up times of the two groups(all P>0.05). Repeated measures analysis of variance also showed no significant differences in downward trend of LVMI between the two groups after TAVR within 1 year( P>0.05). Conclusions:Left ventricular reverse remodeling can be detected in both BAV and TAV patients after TAVR, which starts from 1 week and can be lasted for 1 year post procedure. Patients with bicuspid morphology might experience similar reverse LV remodeling post TAVR versus patients with tricuspid morphology.

Objective:To establish a technical system for early judgment and rescue artificial oocyte activation of oocytes after fertilization failed, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and to explore the activation efficiency and application value.Methods:Firstly, a retrospective analysis was performed in 150 ICSI cycles cultured by Time-lapse system during January 2017 to March 2018 from Reproductive Medical and Genetic Center, the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, the time distribution of the second polar body (Pb2) exclusion and its relationship with fertilization and embryo development outcomes, the feasibility of Pb2 exclusion as an early indicator of fertilization failure in ICSI was discussed. Secondly, 225 fertilization failed oocytes from 93 ICSI cycles during March 2018 to June 2019 were collected for randomized controlled trials according to different artificial activation modes. They were divided into three groups including non-activation group (NAOA group), rescue activation group (RAOA group) and late activation group (LAOA group). At the same time, the rest of injected oocytes from ICSI cycles include in this study were used as control group. Fertilization and embryo development parameters were used to explore the efficiency and application value of rescue artificial activation for after fertilization failure oocytes ICSI.Results:Time-lapse monitoring showed that the fertilization rate and 2PN fertilization rate were 99.91% and 97.76% in the Pb2-exclusion group, 0.03% and 0% in the without Pb2-exclusion group after ICSI, with significant differences between the two groups ( P<0.001); the exclusion time of Pb2 after ICSI was (3.04±1.45) h, and the distribution and proportion of Pb2 exclusion time were 0-3 h (58.00%), 3-5 h (36.29%), 5-8 h (3.92%) and >8 h (1.21%). The Pb2 exclusion rate, the fertilization rate and the 2PN fertilization rate in NAOA group were all 0%, and the 2PN fertilization rate (36.00%), day 3 (D3) high-quality embryo rate (8.00%), day 5 (D5) blastocyst formation rate (0%) and D5 high-quality blastocyst formation rate (0%) in LAOA group were significantly lower than those in RAOA group (60.00%, 44.19%, 51.16%, 25.58%) ( P=0.005, P=0.002, P<0.001, P=0.005), and also in control group (97.63%, 48.62%, 63.23%, 37.94%) ( P<0.001); the Pb2 exclusion rate (84.00%), the fertilization rate (81.33%), the 2PN fertilization rate (60.00%) and the 2PN cleavage rate (95.56%) in RAOA group were significantly lower than those in control group (100.00%, 99.68%, 97.63%, 99.51%) ( P<0.001, P<0.001, P<0.001, P=0.04). However, there was no significant difference in D3 high-quality embryo rate, D5 blastocyst formation rate and D5 high-quality blastocyst formation rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Time-lapse monitoring of the Pb2 exclusion can be used as an early judgment indicator of fertilization failure in ICSI cycles. Rescue artificial activation of fertilization failed oocytes in 5 h after ICSI can achieve normal fertilization and acceptable embryo development outcomes.
