Objective:
To systematically evaluate the influencing factors for repeated implantation failure (RIF) after in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in China, so as to provide the evidence for prevention of RIF.
Methods:
Literature on influencing factors for RIF in China were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, China Medical Literature Service System, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library and Embase from inception to September, 2024. A meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 14.0 softwares. Literature were excluded one by one for sensitivity analysis. Publication bias was evaluated using Egger's test.
Results:
Initially 4 836 relevant articles were retrieved, and 12 of them were finally included, with a total sample size of 11 554 individuals. There were 10 case-control studies, 1 cohort study, and 1 cross-sectional study; and 10 high-quality studies and 2 medium-quality studies. The meta-analysis showed that factors including advanced age (OR=1.121, 95%CI: 1.035-1.215), prolonged infertility duration (OR=1.237, 95%CI: 1.091-1.403), abnormal hysteroscopy findings (OR=2.205, 95%CI: 1.119-4.348), positive anti-nuclear antibody (ANA) (OR=2.393, 95%CI: 1.473-3.886), and positive anti-beta2 glycoprotein Ⅰ antibody (β2-GPⅠ-Ab) (OR=2.824, 95%CI: 1.987-4.013) were associated with an increased risk of RIF; while factors including the large number of embryos transferred (OR=0.309, 95%CI: 0.098-0.973), thicker endometrium (OR=0.601, 95%CI: 0.556-0.650), and higher granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) levels (OR=0.657, 95%CI: 0.511-0.845) were associated with a reduced risk of RIF.
Conclusion
IVF-ET RIF is associated with age, infertility duration, number of embryos transferred, endometrial thickness, hysteroscopy findings, G-CSF levels, ANA and β2-GPⅠ-Ab.

【Objective】 To investigate and summarize the clinical and imaging features of a few patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Lanzhou City. 【Methods】 We carried out a retrospective analysis of the epidemiological data, laboratory results and clinical imaging features of eight hospitalized patients with confirmed COVID-19 in The First Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 23 to February 23, 2020. 【Results】 The sex ratio (men to women) of the 8 patients was 5∶3 while their age ranged from 24 to 57 years old. The incubation period was 1-10 days. Of the 8 patients, 7(87.5%) had COVID-19 brought in from other places in China and 1(12.5%) was a secondary infection case. The main clinical manifestations included cough in 6 cases (75%), fever in 4 cases (50%), expectoration in 3 cases (37.5%), and fatigue in 2 cases (25%). All the 8 cases indicated abnormal manifestations in blood routine examinations, 4 cases (50%) decreased in WBC, 7 cases (87.5%) decreased in Lym count, 5 cases (62.5%) increased in LDH, 1 case (12.5%) increased in CK, 1 case(12.5%) increased in CK-MB, 4 cases (50%) increased in CRP, 2 cases (25%) increased in PCT, and 1 case (12.5%) increased in D-dimer. Of the 2 patients examined by chest digital radiography (DR), one DR finding was not typical and the other one suggested increased bilateral lung markings. Six patients were examined by HRCT, of whom four (50%) showed multiple ground glass opacities on both lobes and two (25%) showed multiple ground glass opacities only on the right lobe; none of the 6 imaging findings suggested pleural effusion. Six patients were discharged from hospital after being cured and 1 patient still underwent treatment. 【Conclusion】 Most of these 8 patients had COVID-19 imported from outside the city, and the patients were relatively young with few underlying diseases. Their major symptoms were fever, cough, and expectoration. All of them exhibited abnormal findings in blood routine examinations; half of them suggested increased CRP while a few ones showed abnormal CK and Ddimer values. The imaging manifestations of most patients were multiple ground glass opacities near the peripheral pleura.

Objective To observe the alteration and clinical significances of blood coagulation indicators in patients with lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL). Methods Twenty patients who were newly diagnosed LPL in the First People's Hospital of Changzhou from January 2008 to October 2017 and twenty healthy controls were studied. The patients were treated by chemotherapy, plasma exchange, supplement of coagulation factor or other supportive therapy. The parameters of prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FIB), thrombin time (TT), D-dimer (D-D), and platelet count (Plt) were detected in LPL group and healthy controls. Results The levels of PT and APTT in LPL group were dramatically higher than those in control group [(12.9±1.2) s vs. (11.6±0.9) s, (41.7±9.8) s vs. (24.7±2.9) s], and the level of Plt in LPL group was lower than that in control group [112×109/L (3×109/L - 379×109/L) vs. 210×109/L (170×109/L - 271×109/L)], and the differences were statistically significant (all P< 0.05). There were no significant differences in FIB, TT and D-D levels between LPL group and control group (all P >0.05). There were no statistical differences in PT, APTT, FIB, TT, D-D and Plt levels among LPL patients with different types of immunoglobins (all P > 0.05). After treatment, all the coagulation abnormalities got relieved and no patient died of hemorrhage or thrombosis. Conclusions The LPL patients have coagulation disorders and hypercoagulability, and this is independent of the type of immunoglobulin. Clinical attention should be paid to monitoring coagulation indicators to prevent the occurrence of adverse reactions.
