Objective:To systematically evaluate the experience and needs of parental care for premature infants during the transition from hospital to home.Methods:Qualitative studies on the experience and needs of parental care for premature infants transitioning from hospital to home were electronically searched in Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, PsycINFO, CINAHL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, China Biomedical Medline Disc, and WanFang Data. The search period was from the establishment of the database to June 3, 2023. The retrieved studies were evaluated using the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center. The qualitative research results were integrated using the method of aggregation integration.Results:A total of 14 articles were included, 39 research results were extracted, categorized into nine categories. These categories were integrated into three synthesized results, namely the dependency period (parents of premature infants coexisted with joy and concern, and relied on professional support from medical and nursing staff), shock period (parents of premature infants developed negative emotions, faced dual difficulties in home care and role switching, and needed internal and external professional support from the family), adaptation period (parents of premature infants actively responded to changes, sought peer support, and transitioned to the "new normal" of life) .Conclusions:The transition from hospital to home is a dynamic process. During the transition process, parents of premature infants undergo complex emotional experiences and role transitions, requiring support from healthcare professionals, family members, and peers. Medical and nursing workers should pay attention to the psychological changes and diverse needs of parents, provide professional support and guidance to help them adapt to the role of parents, and promote the healthy growth of premature infants.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of non-pharmacological interventions on benefit finding of breast cancer patients by using network Meta-analysis.Methods:Randomized controlled trials on the effect of non-pharmacological interventions on the benefit finding of breast cancer patients were retrieved by computer from CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Date, China Biology Medicine disc, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, EBSCO, Embase, Medline, Ovid, CINAHL and other databases. The retrieval time was from establishment of the databases to October 15th, 2023. Literature screening and data extraction were carried out independently by two researchers. The Cochrane Manual 5.1.0 randomised Controlled Trial Bias Risk Assessment Scale were used to evaluate the included literature. And the Stata 14.0 were used for Network Meta-analysis.Results:A total of 10 literatures were included. The results of Network Meta-analysis showed that cognitive behavior therapy was the best intervention in improving the benefit finding of breast cancer patients. The effects of different non-pharmacological intervention methods in descending order were cognitive behavior therapy, yoga, acceptance and commitment therapy, self disclosure and muscle stretching.Conclusions:Existing evidence suggests that cognitive behavioral therapy is most effective in improving benefiting finding in breast cancer patients, but more valuable evidence support and high-quality randomized controlled trial studies are needed to further validate.

The solute carrier family 12(SLC12)of cation-chloride cotransporters(CCCs)comprises potassium chlo-ride cotransporters(KCCs,e.g.KCC1,KCC2,KCC3,and KCC4)-mediated Cl-extrusion,and sodium po-tassium chloride cotransporters(N[K]CCs,NKCC1,NKCC2,and NCC)-mediated Cl-loading.The CCCs play vital roles in cell volume regulation and ion homeostasis.Gain-of-function or loss-of-function of these ion transporters can cause diseases in many tissues.In recent years,there have been considerable ad-vances in our understanding of CCCs'control mechanisms in cell volume regulations,with many tech-niques developed in studying the functions and activities of CCCs.Classic approaches to directly measure CCC activity involve assays that measure the transport of potassium substitutes through the CCCs.These techniques include the ammonium pulse technique,radioactive or nonradioactive rubidium ion uptake-assay,and thallium ion-uptake assay.CCCs'activity can also be indirectly observed by measuring y-aminobutyric acid(GABA)activity with patch-clamp electrophysiology and intracellular chloride con-centration with sensitive microelectrodes,radiotracer 36Cl-,and fluorescent dyes.Other techniques include directly looking at kinase regulatory sites phosphorylation,flame photometry,22Na+uptake assay,structural biology,molecular modeling,and high-throughput drug screening.This review sum-marizes the role of CCCs in genetic disorders and cell volume regulation,current methods applied in studying CCCs biology,and compounds developed that directly or indirectly target the CCCs for disease treatments.

Objective:To investigate the effect of laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy on anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) level, ovarian response to gonadotropin stimulation and pregnancy rate for in vitro fertilization (IVF) patients with benign ovarian cysts.Methods:Patients with benign ovarian cysts who were admitted for cystectomy and had undergone IVF treatment were enrolled in the study. There were 373 participants with ovarian cysts underwent laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy in the experimental group. According to duration of post-surgery, there were four sub-groups: 1 year post-surgery (1Y POST), 2 years post-surgery (2Y POST), 4 years post-surgery (4Y POST) and ≥5 years post-surgery (≥5Y POST) in the experimental group. According to histopathologic types of ovarian cysts, there were two sub-groups: ovarian endometriotic cysts and ovarian non-endometriotic cysts. Two hundreds and three patients with no history of ovarian cysts and ovarian surgery were in the control group. The level of AMH and basic concentrations of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), progesterone (P), estradiol (E 2) were measured. Antral follicle counts (AFC) were calculated. There were other study variables: total dose of gonadotropins, duration of ovarian stimulation, the number of oocyte retrieved, the number of embryo obtained, blastocyst transfer rate and pregnancy rate. Results:The control group was matched as closely as possible to the experimental group, including age, body mass index and menstrual cycle (all P>0.05). Compared to the women in control group, the women in ovarian endometriotic cystectomy sub-group had significantly higher levels of basal FSH and basal P, lower level of AMH (all P<0.05); the women in ovarian endometriotic cysts sub-group had significantly higher dose of gonadotropins (all P<0.05); the women in ovarian endometriotic cysts ≥5Y POST sub-group had significantly lower number of oocyte retrieved, lower number of embryo obtained, lower blastocyst transfer rate, and lower pregnancy rate (all P<0.05). Compared to the women in control group, the women in ovarian non-endometriotic cysts sub-group had a significantly higher level of basal FSH and basal P (all P<0.05). The women in ovarian non-endometriotic cysts sub-group had lower level of AMH, higher dose of gonadotropins, lower number of oocyte retrieved, lower number of embryo obtained, lower rate of blastocyst transfer and lower rate of pregnancy than the control group but there were no statistically significant differences among them (all P>0.05). The women with unilateral ovarian endometriotic cysts had significantly lower number of oocyte retrieved on the side of surgery than another side ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In short term laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy has no significant effect on ovarian reserve. But with long-term follow-up ovarian reserve, ovarian response to gonadotropin stimulation and pregnancy rate are decreased. The effect of laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy in benign cysts on ovarian is associated with whether or not it is the surgical side.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness, safety and cost between urinary follicle stimulating hormone (uFSH) and recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH) in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in China.Methods:Data were collected from 16 reproductive centers in China covering oocytes collection time from May 1, 2015 to June 30, 2018. Eligible patients were over 18 years old, adopting COS with uFSH (uFSH group) or rFSH (rFSH group) as start gonadotropins (Gn), and using in vitro fertilization (IVF) and (or) intracytoplasmic sperm injection for fertilisation, excluding frozen embryo recovery cycle. Generalised estimating equation was used to address the violation of independency assumption between cycles due to multiple IVF cycles for one person and clustering nature of cycles carried out within one center. Controlling variables included age, body mass index, anti-Müllerian hormone level, cause of infertility, ovulation protocol, type of fertilisation, number of embryos transferred, number of days of Gn use.Results:Totally 102 061 cycles met eligibility criteria and were included in the analyses. In terms of effectiveness, after controlling relevant unbalanced baseline characteristics, compared with rFSH group, the high oocyte retrieval (>15 oocytes was considered high retrieval) rate of uFSH group significantly decreased in gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist protocol ( OR=0.642, P<0.01) and in gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist protocol ( OR=0.556, P=0.001), but the clinical pregnancy rate per transfer cycle and the live birth rate per transfer cycle significantly increased ( OR=1.179, OR=1.169, both P<0.01) in both agonist and antagonist protocols. For safety, multiple analysis result demonstrated that in the agonist protocol, compared with rFSH group, the incidence of moderate to severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome of uFSH group significantly decreased ( OR=0.644, P=0.002). The differences in ectopic pregnancy rate and multiple pregnancy rate between the uFSH and rFSH groups were not significant ( P=0.890, P=0.470) in all patients. In terms of cost, compared with rFSH group, the uFSH group had lower total Gn costs for each patient ( P<0.01). Conclusion:For patients who underwent COS, uFSH has better safety, and economic profiles over rFSH in China.

Objective:To explore the related factors of poor ovarian response (POR) in patients receiving controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) and to establish the nomogram for predicting POR in patients who received in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI).Methods:In this retrospective research, clinical data of 17 164 cycles of patients who received IVF/ICSI treatment at Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from September 1st, 2016 to September 1st, 2020 were analyzed. Independent correlative factors affecting the occurrence of POR were screened by logistic regression, which were the model enrollment variables in the prediction model. Totally 13 266 cycles with well-record of enrollment variables were screened, and these data were randomly divided into model group (9 896 patients) and validation group (3 370 patients) according to 3∶1. The nomogram was established according to the regression coefficient of the relevant variables. The prediction accuracy of the nomogram was evaluated by calculating area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC).Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed age, infertility type, body mass index, anti-Müllerian hormone, basal follicle stimulating hormone, basal estrogen, antral follicle number, previous times of POR, history of ovarian surgery, ovulation stimulation protocol and average amount of gonadotropin were independent correlative factors affecting the occurrence of POR (all P<0.05). In the model group, according to the above factors, the prediction model and nomogram of POR risk were constructed and the validation group verified the model. The AUC of the model group was 0.893 (95% CI: 0.885-0.900), and the AUC of the validation group was 0.890 (95% CI: 0.878-0.903). Conclusion:The influencing factors of POR after COS in patients treated by IVF/ICSI are screened, and the nomogram for predicting POR established in this study is proved to be effective, simple, intuitive and clear in predicting the occurrence of POR.

The diagnosis and treatment of spontaneous rupture and massive hemorrhage of tuberous sclerosis-related renal hamartoma in a woman in the third trimester are reported. The patient was admitted at 39 weeks of gestation, with threatened labor and a history of bilateral renal hamartoma, which had been hidden. Placental abruption was considered due to persistent lumbago, abdominal pain, abdominal muscle tension, uterine tension and fetal heart rate dropping to 90 bpm, and an emergency cesarean section was performed at 39 +1 weeks. About 200 ml of bloody ascites was found in the peritoneal cavity. A live boy was delivered and no blood clot was seen in the maternal face of the placenta. After the uterine incision was closed, a huge bluish purple mass was detected on the right-side retroperitoneum and the renal angiography showed rupture and hemorrhage of a right renal hamartoma. A selective right renal artery embolization was performed. The patient recovered after the operation and was discharged seven days later required by the family. The patient was in good condition except for hematuria during a 30-day postpartum follow-up, and oral everolimus treatment and regular follow-up were continued. The newborn with a birth weight of 2 355 g was transferred to the neonatology department after birth due to severe asphyxia, and postnatal echocardiography suspected heart rhabdomyoma. The baby had one seizure but was otherwise well, and was discharged after eight days. The seizure did not recur to the neonate after discharge. Clinicians should pay attention to pregnant women with renal hamartoma. If abnormal abdominal distension, hematuria or lumbago occur during pregnancy, rupture of renal hamartoma and possible massive hemorrhage should be considered.

Objective:To investigate the effect of endometrial thickness(EMT) on the clinical outcome of blastocyst hormone replacement freeze-thawed embryo transfer (HRT-FET) on the first progesterone day, and to analyze the threshold and optimal thickness interval corresponding to ideal clinical pregnancy rate by statistical method.Methods:The endometrial preparation protocols of 2 825 blastocyst HRT-FET cycles from January 2013 to December 2016 in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital and the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University were studied retrospectively. According to EMT on the first progesterone day, they were divided into 5 subgroups: group Q1(EMT: 3.5-7.9 mm), group Q2(EMT: 8.0-8.9 mm), group Q3(EMT: 9.0-9.5 mm), group Q4(EMT: 9.6-10.7 mm), group Q5(EMT: 10.8-21.0 mm). Univariate analysis, classification multivariate Logistic regression analysis, curve fitting and threshold effect analysis were used to investigate the effect of endometrial thickness on clinical outcome of blastocyst HRT-FET.Results:Group Q1 was set as the control group in classification multivariate Logistic regression analysis, after adjusting for confounding factors, the clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate in other groups were higher than the control group. The clinical pregnancy rate and live birth rate in group Q3 and Q4 were significantly increased and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). The cut-off value of the endometrial thickness was 9.6 mm. When endometrial thickness was less than 9.6 mm, with 1 mm increase of endometrial thickness, the clinical pregnancy rate increased by 23%( OR=1.23, 95% CI=1.11-1.36) and the live birth rate increased by 21%( OR=1.21, 95% CI=1.10-1.33). When the endometrial thickness was thicker than the threshold, the clinical pregnancy rate did not increase significantly( OR=0.92, 95% CI=0.84-1.02), and the live birth rate showed a downward trend( OR=0.88, 95% CI=0.81-0.96). Conclusions:In the blastocyst HRT-FET cycle, endometrial thickness showes a curvilinear relationship with clinical outcome. The optimal endometrial thickness range for ideal clinical outcome is 9.0-11.0 mm.

Objective To explore the value of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and age in predicting outcomes of patients undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer treatment. Methods In this retrospective study, 6 328 Chinese patients who underwent the first in vitro fertilization or intracytoplasmic sperm injection and embryo transfer treatment in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital between July 2016 and July 2018 were analyzed. All the patients were categorized into two groups according to pregnancy or not. Baseline data and outcomes of two groups were compared. The regression analysis was conducted to identify the independent factors of clinical pregnancy rates. Furthermore, correlation analysis was performed between AMH and other factors. Results (1) The total clinical pregnancy rate was 56.86% (3 547/6 238). Age, AMH, basal FSH, antral follicle number (AFC), starting dose of gonadotropin (Gn), total doses of Gn, duration of Gn, number of oocytes, transferable cleavage embryos and transferred embryos were significantly different (all P<0.01). (2) Correlation analysis showed that AMH had significant passive correlation with age, basal FSH, starting dose of Gn and total doses of Gn (all P<0.01), while showed significant positive correlation with AFC, body mass index, duration of Gn, number of oocytes and transferable cleavage embryos (all P<0.01). Of all the factors, AMH had the strongest correlation with AFC (P<0.01). (3) Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that age was the independent influencing factor of clinical pregnancy rate ( OR=0.938, 95%CI : 0.824-0.952, P<0.01), while AMH not ( OR=1.004, 95%CI : 0.984-1.024, P=0.687). In the subgroups according to age, the advanced group (age>35 years old) had lower clinical pregnancy rate and higher cancellation rate for no available embryos. Conclusions AMH has no predictive value of clinical pregnancy outcomes for patients with in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer treatment, while age has certain predictive value of pregnancy outcomes. AMH level may have indictive value for the evaluation of ovarian reserve.
