Objective:To explore the impact of previous cytomegalovirus (CMV), herpes simplex virus (HSV), and rubella virus (RV) infection on pregnancy outcomes in infertile women undergoing the first in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection and embryo transfer (IVF/ICSI-ET) treatment. Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of women who underwent IVF/ICSI-ET for the first time at the Reproductive Medicine Center, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from December 2017 to December 2022. The patients were divided into CMV-IgG (+) group ( n=154), RV-IgG (+) group ( n=86), HSV-IgG (+) group ( n=93) and IgG all-negative group ( n=172). The pregnancy outcomes of the patients in the virus-only infection group and the IgG all-negative group were compared. Patients who were previously co-infected with CMV and HSV were classified as the CMV+HSV-IgG (+) group ( n=344), and the pregnancy outcomes of patients with previous CMV and HSV co-infection and those with infection alone were further compared. Results:The two pronuclei (2PN) fertilization rate [63.90% (1 195/1 870)], the clinical pregnancy rate [51.30% (79/154)], and the live birth rate [45.45% (70/154)] of the CMV-IgG (+) group were significantly lower than those of the IgG completely negative group [68.68% (1 469/2 139), P=0.001; 68.60% (118/172), P=0.001; 61.05% (105/172), P=0.005]. The 2PN fertilization rate [61.62% (729/1 183)], the clinical pregnancy rate [50.54% (47/93)], and the live birth rate [43.01% (40/93)] of the HSV-IgG (+) group were significantly lower than those of the IgG completely negative group [68.68% (1 469/2 139), P=0.001; 68.60% (118/172), P=0.004; 61.05% (105/172), P=0.005]. There were no statistical differences in the 2PN fertilization rate, the clinical pregnancy rate, and the live birth rate between the RV-IgG (+) group and the IgG completely negative group (all P>0.05). Compared with the IgG completely negative group, there were no significant differences in the risk of complications such as gestational diabetes, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy and neonatal outcomes in the CMV-IgG (+) group, RV-IgG (+) group, and HSV-IgG (+) group (all P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that CMV-IgG (+) ( OR=0.453, 95% CI: 0.280-0.734, P=0.001; OR=0.515, 95% CI: 0.321-0.825, P=0.006), HSV-IgG (+) ( OR=0.425, 95% CI: 0.245-0.738, P=0.002; OR=0.447, 95% CI: 0.259-0.771, P=0.004) and CMV+HSV-IgG (+) ( OR=0.491, 95% CI: 0.329-0.733, P=0.001; OR=0.528, 95% CI: 0.357-0.780, P=0.001) were all independent influencing factors of patients' clinical pregnancy and live birth. There were no statistical differences in the clinical outcomes between the previous CMV and HSV co-infection group and the single infection group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Previous CMV or HSV infection alone reduced the fertilization rate, the clinical pregnancy rate and the live birth rate of patients undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET treatment, but had no significant impact on pregnancy complications and neonatal outcomes. Pregnancy outcomes of patients with previous CMV and HSV co-infection were similar to those with infection alone.

Reduced or interrupted blood flow is an important pathological and physiological process in femoral head necrosis,so understanding the blood flow of the femoral head can help better understand the progression of femoral head necrosis.With the continuous development and improvement of imaging technology,the technical methods for detecting the blood flow of the femoral head are gradually being widely applied,allowing clinical physicians to better understand the blood flow situation of patients with femoral head necrosis.However,at present,the prognosis prediction of femoral head necrosis still mainly revolves around factors such as the area and angle of femoral head necrosis.Therefore,this article explores imaging techniques covering studies such as femoral head vascular imaging or blood flow perfusion parameters,summarizes their application research progress in femoral head necrosis blood flow assessment,and aims to provide more objective basis for exploring the prevention and prognosis of femoral head necrosis from the perspective of femoral head blood flow.

Objective To analyze the efficacy of the"sandwich"technique for treating varicocele(VC).Methods A total of 310 patients with VC(365 affected veins)were selected and divided into interventional treatment group and non-interventional treatment group.The baseline data,hospitalization data,and 6-month follow-up data of the two groups were analyzed.Results The age of patients in the interventional treatment group was significantly lower than that in the non-interventional treatment group(P＜0.05).The surgical time and hospital stay in the interventional treatment group were significantly lower than those in the non-interventional treatment group(P＜0.05).In the non-interventional treatment group,two patients experienced surgical site infections,and one patient opted for interventional treatment due to recurrence after non-interventional treatment.After surgery,the diameter of the spermatic vein significantly decreased in both the interventional and non-interventional treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusion The"sandwich"technique(embolization coil combined with foam sclerotherapy)is an effective treatment for VC.

Objective To evaluate the medium-to-long-term efficacy of parallel stenting technology in treating aortoiliac occlusive disease(AIOD).Methods The clinical data of 18 patients with symptomatic AIOD,who received parallel stenting(using metal bare stent or covered stent)to reconstruct the aortoiliac artery at the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University of China from March 2017 to May 2019,were retrospectively analyzed.The patients included 14 males and 4 females with a mean age of(64.78±9.04)years.The surgical details,clinical success,complications,and stent patency rate were recorded.Results Both technical success and clinical success were achieved in all patients.A total of 62 stents were implanted,including 52 bare metal stents,9 covered stents and one renal artery balloon dilatation stent.After stent implantation,one patient each developed lacunar cerebral infarction,brachial artery pseudoaneurysm,decreased hemoglobin level,and thrombus migration into the renal artery,and after active management the patients were well discharged.The incidence of complications was 22％(4/18).During the follow-up period,3 patients developed in-stent restenosis,and the vascular lumen returned to patency after a second time of endovascular intervention.The postoperative 12-,18-,24-,30-,and 36-month main patency rates were 100％,95％,90％,85％,and 85％,respectively.Conclusion For the treatment of AIOD,parallel stenting technology has obtained satisfactory 3-year results.For the patients with complicated AIOD,this technique also carries a high technical success rate and an acceptable medium-to-long-term patency rate.

BACKGROUND:Up to now,there is no literature on the relationship between blood laboratory tests and the course of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of femoral head in different stages.It is necessary to further explore and analyze so as to better clarify the influencing factors of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of femoral head. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the relationship between blood laboratory indicators and the course of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head by the Association Research Circulation Osseous(ARCO),thus exploring the influencing factors of blood laboratory indicators on the course of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS:This study used a retrospective study design.A total of 2 103 patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head were retrieved from Wangjing Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences database,and 1 075 patients with nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head were ultimately included based on inclusion and exclusion criteria.Patient age,gender,body mass index,and blood laboratory test results were collected.Blood laboratory tests included low-density lipoprotein,total cholesterol,triglycerides,high-density lipoprotein,apolipoprotein β,apolipoprotein α1,uric acid,total protein quantitative,alkaline phosphatase,activated partial thromboplastin time,prothrombin time,prothrombin time International Normalized Ratio,prothrombin time activity,fibrinogen quantitative,coagulation time of thrombin,D-dimer,total iron binding capacity,and platelet count.The indicators of patients with different age groups and different ARCO stages were compared,and multiple Logistic regression analysis was applied to explore the influencing factors of ARCO stages in osteonecrosis of the femoral head. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)There were statistical differences in total cholesterol,uric acid,prothrombin time,prothrombin time International Normalized Ratio,and D-dimer among ARCO stages in the young group(P<0.05).Among young patients in ARCO stage II,total cholesterol levels were higher than those in ARCO stage III(P<0.05).Uric acid levels in ARCO stage IV were higher than those in ARCO stage II and III(P<0.05).Prothrombin time and prothrombin time International Normalized Ratio were shorter in ARCO stage IV and II than in ARCO stage III(P<0.05).D-dimer levels were higher in ARCO stage III and IV than in ARCO stage II(P<0.05).(2)There were statistically significant differences in high-density lipoprotein,coagulation time of thrombin,and D-dimer among ARCO stages in the middle-aged group(P<0.05).Among middle-aged patients in ARCO stage IV,high-density lipoprotein levels were higher than those in ARCO stages II and III(P<0.05).Coagulation time of thrombin was shorter in ARCO stage IV than in ARCO stage III(P<0.05).D-dimer levels were higher in ARCO stages IV than in ARCO stages II and III(P<0.05).(3)The uric acid,activated partial thromboplastin time,D-dimer,and platelet count in the elderly group showed statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The uric acid level in ARCO stage IV was higher than that in ARCO stage II and III patients in the elderly group(P<0.05),while the activated prothrombin time in ARCO stage II patients was shorter than that in ARCO stage III patients in the elderly group(P<0.05).The D-dimer level in ARCO stage III and IV patients was higher than that in ARCO stage II patients in the elderly group(P<0.05).The platelet count in ARCO stage IV was lower than that in ARCO stage III patients in the elderly group(P<0.05).(4)Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that total cholesterol and platelet count may be protective factors for course of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head,while D-dimer,uric acid,overweight,and young and middle age may be risk factors for course of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head.(5)It is indicated that total cholesterol,high-density lipoprotein,uric acid,prothrombin time,prothrombin time International Normalized Ratio,and D-dimer are statistically significant among patients with different ARCO stages.Total cholesterol and platelet count may be protective factors for the course of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head,while D-dimer,uric acid,overweight,and middle-aged and young age groups may be hazard factors for the course of nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head.
