ObjectiveTo evaluate the pregnancy outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART) in women with a history of thyroid cancer who retained fertility intentions after completing cancer treatment. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed on 61 patients with a history of thyroid cancer who underwent in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm microinjection and embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET). These patients were included as the case group. A total of 122 non-cancer patients who received ART during the same period were selected as the control group using 1∶2 matching based on age and oocyte retrieval time. Baseline characteristics, outcomes of the first ART cycle, and cumulative pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups. ResultsThere was no significant difference in the basic data, the total amount of gonadotropin (Gn) and the days of use between the case group and the control group (P>0.05). However, the case group had significantly fewer retrieved oocytes, mature oocytes (MII), lower fertilization and cleavage rates, and fewer transferable and high-quality embryos, as well as fewer embryos transferred during the first cycle (P < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the rate of first embryo implantation and first clinical pregnancy between the two groups (P>0.05). In the analysis of cumulative outcomes, the two groups did not show statistically significant differences in the cumulative pregnancy rate, clinical pregnancy rate per transfer cycle, the number of oocyte retrieval cycles required per live birth, the number of embryo transfer cycles required per live birth, and the number of embryos used for each live birth (P>0.05). However, the cumulative live birth rate was significantly lower in the case group compared to the control group (P=0.005). ConclusionAfter treatment for thyroid cancer, when ART is used to help pregnant women, the pregnancy outcome is comparable to that of women without tumors. Individualized reproductive management and timely fertility preservation strategies are recommended to optimize reproductive outcomes in this population.

Objective:To explore the association between mouth breathing (MB) and functional speech sound disorders (FSSDs) in children, aiming to establish a novel theoretical basis for FSSD interventions.Methods:Eighty-nine children with an FSSD aged 4-12 years formed the FSSD group, while eighty-five age-matched healthy children served as controls. Their clinical data were processed using independent sample t-tests and chi-square tests to test for any significant differences between the two groups in terms of gender, age, mouth breathing status, post-frenotomy condition, Mandarin exposure before age 4, and delayed speech onset. Multivariate logistic regressions were evaluated to identify risk factors for FSSD in such children and to seek any association between mouth brea-thing and FSSD.Results:The regression analysis identified the following risk factors for childhood FSSD, ranked by odds ratio ( OR) magnitude: mouth breathing (adjusted OR=22.168, 95% CI=7.849-62.608, P≤0.01), delayed speech onset (adjusted OR=20.091, 95% CI=4.812-83.878, P≤0.01), age (a protective effect) (adjusted OR=0.979, 95% CI=0.962-0.997, P≤0.05). Univariate analysis of mouth breathing and associated factors revealed significant associations of FSSD with mouth breathing (χ 2=52.15, P≤0.01) and delayed speech onset (χ 2=25.873, P≤0.01). Conclusions:The significant risk factors for childhood functional speech sound disorders are mouth breathing (showing the highest adjusted OR), delayed speech onset and age. These findings suggest that early screening and therapeutic interventions for mouth breathing should be clinically prioritized to minimize FSSD risk.
