Since the birth of the first "test-tube baby" in Chinese mainland in 1988, assisted reproductive technology (ART) in China has matured significantly. The number of ART cycles has surpassed one million, and the number of assisted reproductive institutions and practitioners has attained a significant scale, contributing to the establishment of a fertility-friendly society. However, due to the complexity of the ART process, the diversity of personnel backgrounds, and the profound impact of any error that may occur, there is an urgent need to establish an efficient and effective safety management model for error prevention. This paper aims to outline the key processes and steps involved in the implementation of ART, explore control measures for these critical processes, and delve into error prevention strategies for gamete and embryo laboratories through the creation and utilization of a "gamete safety checklist".

Objective:To investigate the role of serotonergic (5-HT) neurons activation in the dorsal raphe nucleus (DRN) in heat-induced seizures and its influence on breathing patterns in Scn1a + /- mice. Methods:24-day-old male Scn1a + /- mice were used for experiments, and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy(SUDEP) model was established through heat induction for 5 consecutive days. (1) Fluoxetine intervention experiment: 20 male mice were randomly divided into model group( n=10) and fluoxetine group ( n=10) according the weight-matched method. The fluoxetine group received intraperitoneal injection of fluoxetine (10 mg/kg) 45 min before heat induction each day for 5 consecutive days, while the model group received equal volume of 0.9% NaCl solution. (2) Chemogenetic activation experiment: 20 male mice were randomly divided into vector control group( n=10) and chemogenetic activation group ( n=10) according the weight-matched method. Empty vector or rAAV-TPH2-hM3d(Gq)-EGFP-WPREs was stereotaxically injected into DRN 14 d prior to seizure induction, and deschloroclozapine (5 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected 30 min before heat induction. Seizure characteristics and survival were assessed through video monitoring, and respiratory parameters were monitored. Immunofluorescence was used to detect colocalization of tryptophan hydroxylase 2(TPH2) and c-Fos in DRN. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 24.0 and GraphPad Prism 9.0. The independent sample t-test or Mann-Whitney test was used for inter-group comparison. Results:(1) In the fluoxetine intervention experiment: the survival rates between the model group and fluoxetine group showed no statistically significant difference ( χ2=2.23, P>0.05). As for the frequency of grade Ⅳ seizures, the model group (1.50(1.25, 2.35)min) demonstrated higher frequency than the fluoxetine group (0.43(0.20, 0.67)min) ( t=-3.40, P<0.05).With respect to respiratory parameters, the model group demonstrated shorter expiratory time ((0.10±0.02) s) and inspiratory time ((0.15±0.02) s) compared to the fluoxetine group ((0.16±0.05) s, (0.19±0.04) s) ( t=-3.47, -3.73, both P<0.01). The respiratory rate in the model group ((269.96±44.84) times/min) was significantly higher compared to the fluoxetine group ((195.04±52.37) times/min) ( t=3.44, P<0.01). The tidal volume in the model group ((0.10±0.02) mL) was significantly lower than the fluoxetine group ((0.13±0.04) mL) ( t=-2.19, P<0.05).The number of TPH2+ /c-Fos+ co-expressing cells in the model group (11.00±4.00) was lower than that in the fluoxetine group (33.00±8.39)( t=-4.16, P<0.05). (2) In the chemogenetic activation experiment: compared to the vehicle group, the chemogenetic activation group demonstrated significantly enhanced survival rates ( χ2=5.83, P<0.05). As for the frequency of grade Ⅴ seizures, the vehicle group (2.11(1.62, 3.44) times/min) showed higher frequency compared to the chemogenetic activation group (0.81(0.00, 1.62) times/min) ( t=18.00, P<0.05). In terms of respiratory parameters, the vehicle group showed shorter expiratory time ((0.10±0.01) s) and inspiratory time ((0.14±0.01) s) compared to the chemogenetic activation group ((0.12±0.01) s, (0.15±0.01) s) ( t=-2.78, -2.50, both P<0.05). The respiratory rate in the vehicle group ((208.37±9.73) times/min) was significantly higher than the chemogenetic activation group ((191.85±8.83) times/min) ( t=3.98, P<0.01). The tidal volume in the vehicle group ((0.09±0.01) mL) was significantly lower than the chemogenetic activation group ((0.12±0.02) mL) ( t=-4.77, P<0.001).The number of TPH2+ /c-Fos+ co-expressing cells in the vehicle group (9.00±3.46) was lower than that in the chemogenetic activation group (43.00±11.02)( t=-5.20, P<0.01). Conclusion:Specific activation of serotonergic neurons in the DRN can ameliorate heat-induced epileptic symptoms, improve respiratory function, and prolong survival time in Scn1a + /- mice.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum pregnancy-specific protein 1(PSG1),stress-induced protein 2(Sestrin 2),growth arrest-specific protein 6(Gas6)and uterine artery blood flow pa-rameters and fetal growth restriction(FGR)in patients with gestational hypertension(GH).Methods A to-tal of 485 GH patients admitted to Handan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2020 to October 2023 were selected as the research objects and divided into the occurrence group(81 cases)and the non-occur-rence group according to whether FGR occurred.The correlations between serum PSG1,Sestrin 2,Gas6 and uterine artery blood flow parameters[pulse index(PI),resistance index(RI),ratio of peak systolic velocity to end diastolic velocity(S/D)]was analysed,as well as the related influencing factors of FGR in GH patients.In addition,a Nomogram model based on the influencing factors was constructed to analyze the predictive value.Results The serum PSG1 level in occurrence group was significantly lower than that in non-occurrence group,and the serum Sestrin 2,Gas6 levels and PI,RI,S/D values were significantly higher than those in non-occurrence group(P<0.05).Pearson correlation results showed that serum PSG1 was negatively correlated with the uterine artery blood flow parameters PI,RI,and S/D,and the levels of serum Sestrin 2 and Gas6 were positively correlated with the uterine artery blood flow parameters PI,RI,and S/D(P<0.05).Gestational di-abetes mellitus,umbilical cord abnormalities,high Sestrin 2,high Gas6,high PI,high RI,and high S/D were independent risk factors for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients(P<0.05),and increased PSG1 level was protective factor for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients(P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the Nomogram prediction model con-structed based on the influencing factors for predicting the occurrence of FGR in GH patients was 0.982,and the sensitivity and specificity were 0.943 and 0.938,respectively.The internal verification of the Bootstrap method shows that the Bias-corrected prediction curve basically coincides with the Ideal line,and the consis-tency index(C-index)was 0.964,indicating that the model was relatively stable.The decision curve shows that the threshold probability of this model was 0.01-1.00 and the net return rate was above 0.Conclusion Ser-um PSG1,Sestrin 2 and Gas6 in GH patients are closely related to uterine artery blood flow parameters and FGR,and the three are the influencing factors for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients.The constructed No-mogram model has a good predictive efficacy for FGR.
