Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of cerebral-placental-uterine ratio(CPUR)in predicting late-on-set fetal growth restriction(FGR).Methods:From May 2020 to May 2021,1255 women with singleton pregnancy who underwent prenatal examinations at the University of Hong Kong Shenzhen Hospital were selected for fetal growth and Doppler measurements at 35-37 +6 weeks of gestation.Pregnant women with birth weight of newbo-rns＜the 10th percentile were the FGR group.The pulsatility index(PI)of uterine artery(UtA),umbilical artery(UA)and fetal middle cerebral artery(MCA)were analyzed separately and in combination.ROC curve was used to analyze the cerebral-placental-uterine ratio(CPUR),cerebral-placental ratio(CPR),cerebral-uterine ratio(C-UtA)for predicting late-onset FGR;and to evaluate the sensitivity,positive and negative predictive value and of CPUR in the prediction of late-onset FGR.Results:The area under the curve(AUC)of CPUR,CPR,C-UtA and mean UtA-PI for FGR grope were 0.88,0.86,0.84 and 0.72.Under certain cut-off values and 87% specificity,the specificity of CPUR,CPR,C-UtA and mean UtA-Pifor predicting FGR group was 43.2%,46.6%,39.8% and 23.9%,respectively.The positive predictive values of CPUR,CPR,C-UtA and mean UtA-PI,UA-PI for predicting FGR group were 90.5%,71.9%,83.3%,63.6%and 5.2%,respectively.Conclusions:CPUR is more effective in predicting late onset FGR than CPR,C-UtA and mean UtA-PI.It can effectively increase the detection rate of fetal growth restrictionand reduce the FGR risk.

Objective:To develop and verify a nomogram to predict disease-free survival(DFS)and overall survival(OS)for patients undergoing cervical cancer surgery,which may provide reference for evaluating the prognosis of cervical cancer patients undergoing surgery.Methods:The clinical,pathological and follow-up data of patients who underwent radical operation for cervical cancer in Xijing Hospital,Air Force Medical University from March 2013 to October 2018 were analyzed retrospectively.Based on Cox regression analysis,Bayesian Informa-tion Criterion(BIC)backward stepwise selection method and R square screening variables,Net Reclassification Index(NRI)and Integrated Discrimination Improvement(IDI)were used to compare the predictive efficiency of the model,and a nomogram with better predictive efficiency was selected.The consistency index(C-index)and the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)were used to test the efficiency of the nomogram.Results:A total of 950 patients with cervical cancer were enrolled in this study.The risk factors for constructing the DFS nomogram were FIGO stage(2018),parametrium invasion,invasion depth,and maximum tumor diameter.The C-index for DFS in the training cohort and the verification cohort were 0.754 and 0.720,respectively.The area under ROC of the training cohort for 1-,3-and 5-years was 0.74(95%CI 0.65-0.82),0.77(95%CI 0.71-0.83)and 0.79(95%CI0.74-0.85),and the areas under ROC of verification cohort 1-,3-and 5-years were 0.72(95%CI 0.58-0.87),0.75(95%CI 0.64-0.86)and 0.72(95%CI 0.61-0.84),respectively.The risk factors for con-structing the OS nomogram were FIGO stage(2018),histological type,LVSI,parametrium invasion,surgical mar-gin,and invasion depth.The C-index for OS in the training cohort and the verification cohort were 0.737 and 0.759,respectively.The area under ROC of the 3-and 5-year training cohort were 0.76(95%CI 0.69-0.83)and 0.78(95%CI 0.72-0.84),and the areas under ROC of verification cohort 3-and 5-years were 0.76(95%CI 0.65-0.87)and 0.79(95%CI 0.69-0.88),respectively.Conclusions:This study is based on real-world big data to construct nomogram of DFS for 1,3,and 5 years and OS for 3,and 5 years for cervical cancer,which have ideal predictive effects and help clinical physicians correctly evaluate the prognosis of cervical cancer surgery patients.It provides strong reference basis for diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis evaluation.

Objective:To explore the relationship between body composition and the risk of gestational diabe-tes mellitus(GDM)in pregnant women.Methods:90 pregnant women with spontaneous pregnancy of singleton who underwent routine prenatal examination in our hospital were selected as GDM group,and 219 pregnant women with normal singleton in the same period as control group(NGT).The body composition was determined by bioimpedance method at 24-28 weeks of gestation.The relationship between body mass index(BMI),per-centage of body fat(FMP),percentage of fat-free body weight(FFMP),extracellular/intracellular fluid(ECW/ICW),body fat index(FMI)and GDM were analyzed.The levels of circulating adiponectin,fatty acid binding pro-tein 4(FABP4),leptin and fasting insulin(FINS)were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)method,and their relationship with various indicators of human body composition was analyzed.Results:①Adi-ponectin in GDM group was lower than that in NGT group,while leptin was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05).②The FMP,ECW/ICW and FMI in GDM group were significantly higher than those in control group(P＜0.05).Univariate regression analysis showed that BMI,FMP,FMI and ECW/ICW before pregnancy were the risk factorsof GDM(OR＞1,P＜0.05),FFMP,MP,PP and M/F was the protective factor of GDM(OR＜1,P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that only FMP was significantly correlated with the risk of GDM,which was an independent risk factor(OR＞1,P＜0.05).③In GDM group,HOMA-IR was positively correlated with FMI(r＞1,P＜0.05)and negatively correlated with PP(r＜1,P＜0.05).④The ROC curve showed that the diagnostic value of pre-pregnancy BMI、FMP、ECW/ICW and FMI in GDM was similar.There was no significant difference in pre-pregnancy BMI,FMP and FMI(P＞0.05),but they were slightly better than ECW/ICW(P＜0.001).Conclu-sions:Body composition during pregnancy is related to the risk of gestational diabetes.The increase in FMP is associated with an increased risk of developing GDM.The higher the FMP,the higher the risk of GDM.The diag nostic efficacy of BMI,FMP and FMI in GDM is Similar.

Objective:To explore the relationship between fluid dosage during fluid resuscitation and the risk of disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC)in postpartum hemorrhage patients.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted on patients who were admitted to Shenyang Women′s and Children′s Hospital between January 1,2016,and December 31,2022 with postpartum hemorrhage≥1000 ml.The patients were di-vided into two groups according to pregnancy-corrected ISTH scores:group with ISTH score＞26;group with ISTH score≤26.The two groups were matched for 1 ∶ 4 propensity scores and the differences between ratio of crystalloid solution to bleeding volume;ratio of colloidal solution to bleeding volume;ratio of red blood cell infusion to bleeding volume;ratio of plasma infusion to bleeding volume and peak decrease of fibrinogen in the two groups were compared.And analyze the relationship between various observation indicators and the occurrence of DIC.Results:The ROC area under the curve(AUC)values for predicting of the ratio of crystalloid solution to bleeding volume,ratio of colloidal solution to bleeding volume,the peak decrease in fibrinogen,ratio of red blood cell infu-sion to bleeding volume,ratio of plasma infusion to bleeding volume were 0.670(95%CI 0.589-0.751),0.532(95%CI 0.440-0.623),0.771(95%CI 0.706-0.837),0.530(95%CI 0.439-0.621),and 0.563(95%CI 0.473-0.653),the optimal cut off values were 1.23,0.29,0.77,0.48,0.24.The ratio of crystalloid solution to bleeding volume and the peak decrease in fibrinogen were positively correlated with the occurrence of DIC after postpartum hemorrhage,the OR values were 0.256(95%CI 0.111-0.590)and 0.074(95%CI 0.024-0.228).There was no correlation between the ratio of colloidal solution to bleeding volume,the ratio of red blood cell infusion to bleeding volume,the ratio of plasma infusion to bleeding volume and the occurrence of DIC after postpartum hemorrhage.Conclusions:The infusion volume of crystalloid solution is related to the occurrence of DIC,and restrictive fluid resuscitation can reduce the incidence of DIC.Additionally,to lower the risk of DIC,fibrin-ogen or cold precipitation should be rapidly supplied when the decrease of fibrinogen exceeded 0.77 g/L to re-duce the risk of postpartum hemorrhage DIC.

Objective:To investigate the effect of anoxic cold environment at 4500 m altitude on female men-struation.Methods:From March 1 to March 20,2023,women in a unit at an altitude of 4500 meters were selected for reproductive health questionnaire survey,and were divided into≤6 months group,6 months to 12 months group and≥12 months group according to altitude exposure time.The changes of menstruation in each group were analyzed to explore the relevant influencing factors.Results:The total incidence of abnormal menstruation in working women in hypoxic cold environment was as high as 66.14%,and there was no statistically significant difference between the groups at different high-altitude exposure times(P＞0.05).The highest incidence of dys-menorrhea among the types of menstrual changes was 61.90%,but there was no statistically significant differ-ence between the groups at different high altitude exposure times(P＞0.05).There was a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05)in the proportion of insufficient sleep for at least 3 days per week,nervousness and anxiety,and training during their menstrual period in the women who experienced changes in their menstrual cycle com-pared to those who did not.Conclusions:Hypoxic cold environment can lead to the change of female menstrua-tion,and it is combined with sleep deficiency,tension and anxiety,and menstrual exercise.

Objective:To study the risk factors of venous thromboembolism(VTE)and the predictive value of the improved VTE score model to identify the risk of VTE in gynecological surgery patients.Methods:From Janu-ary 1,2020 to December 31,2022,41 patients with VTE after gynecological surgery were selected as the VTE group,and a total of 164 patients with adjacent gynecological surgeries during the same period were selected as the non-VTE group with a ratio of 1 :4.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to ana-lyze the risk factors of VTE after gynecological surgery,and a modified VTE risk factor rapid assessment model(referred to as the improved VTE score model)was constructed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to study the predictive value for VTE for in gynecological surgery,and compared with the Caprini score model(Caprini table for short).Results:①Multivatiate Logistic regression analysis showed that there were independent risk factors for postoperative VTE in gynecology surgery(OR＞1,P＜0.05),including age≥60 years,BMI≥28 kg/m2,malignant tumors,surgery time＞3 hours,history of thrombosis,and the increased D-di-mer difference before and after surgery.②The Area under Curve(AUC)of ROC was 0.963 in the improved VTE score model with a Youden index 81.10％,sensitivity 87.80％and specificity 93.29％.The AUC of the Caprini score model was 0.888 with Youden index 63.41％,sensitivity 73.17％and specificity 90.24％.The improved VTE score model the Caprini score model identified 92.68％and 85.37％of VTE patients as high-risk or ex-tremely high-risk,respectively,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions:More attention should be paid to the six independent risk factors for postoperative VTE in gynecology surgery.The two score models showed a similar identified level.However,the improved VTE score model is more simple and easier to operate,has better practicality,and has certain clinical promotion value.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of pregnancy-associated plasma protein A(PAPP-A),fasting blood glucose(FPG),body mass index(BMI)and age in gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM)during the first trimester.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 792 pregnant women who underwent pre-natal examination and delivered in Sichuan Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from December 2021 to June 2022.They were divided into GDM group(232 cases)and control group(560 cases)according to whether they had GDM.The clinical data,serum PAPP-A median multiple(PAPP-A MoM)in early pregnancy and FPG levels were compared between the two groups.The indicators with statistical significance in univariate analy-sis were included in multivariate Logistic regression analysis to analyze the related factors affecting the occurrence of GDM.The receiver operating curve(ROC)and area under the curve(AUC)of different indexes were plotted to compare the efficacy of GDM prediction.Results:①The age,pre pregnancy BMI,early pregnancy FPG and the proportion of assisted reproductive technology in GDM group were higher than those in control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The early pregnancy PAPP-A MoM level in GDM group was lower than that in control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).②Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that older age,lager pre-pregnancy BMI and lager FPG in the first trimester were in-dependent risk factors for GDM occurrence(OR＞1,P＜0.05),while an increase of PAPP-A MoM in the first tri-mester was a protective factor(OR＜1,P＜0.05).③ROC showed that the combination of PAPP-A MoM in early pregnancy,FPG in early pregnancy,BMI in pre-pregnancy and age had the highest AUC(0.752)when predicting GDM,with a sensitivity of 55.6％and a specificity of 84.3％.Conclusions:The combined screening of serologi-cal(PAPP-A +FPG)and clinical data(pre-pregnancy BMI +age)in early pregnancy has a high clinical application prospect and can be popularized.

Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological features of giant ovarian masses(mean diameter≥10 cm)and analyze the clinical characteristics of patients in different age groups.Methods:The clinicopathological characteristics of 311 patients diagnosed with giant ovarian masses by surgery at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital,Affiliated Hospital of Medical School,Nanjing University from January 2014 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were further stratified by age and mass size to compare the differences of clinical and patho-logical features among different age groups and different mass diameter groups.Results:①The median age of thepatients were 44(24,60)years old.The first symptoms were as follows:ovarian mass discovered during physi-cal examination,abdominal pain,bloating,conscious abdominal distension,and symptoms of compression.②The surgical methods were as follows:unilateral oophorectomy(30.5％,95/311),ovarian cystectomy(28.9％,90/311),tumor staging or cytoreductive surgery(28.0％,87/311),total hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy(12.5％,39/311).③The pathological types were benign(49.5％,154/311),malignant(31.8％,99/311)and borderline(18.7％,58/311).④ Patients complained abdominal distension in＜20 years old group were signifi-cantly higher than the other two groups(P＜0.05).The ovarian resection rate in the＞50-year-old group was higher than that of the other two groups(P＜0.05),and the rate of unilateral ovarian resection in the＜20-year-old group was still as high as 30.1％(15/49).⑤ The size of the mass correlated with the duration of the disease.When the disease course was between 1 to 6 months,the mass diameter line＞30 cm was the most common(P＜0.05).The incidence of borderline tumors in the＞30 cm group was significantly higher than that in the other two groups,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions:Ovarian mucinous and mucinous borderline tumors are the most common types of giant adnexal masses.The size of the mass tends to increase with the prolongation of the disease course.The incidence of borderline tumors increases with the in-crease of mass.Health education for young people should be strengthened.When abdominal pain,abdominal bloating,especially lower abdominal distension occurs,they should seek medical treatment in time to avoid adnex-ectomy due to borderline tumors.

Objective:To analyse the clinical significance of selective single embryo transfer by time-lapse mo-nitoring(TLM)or conventional morphology assessment(CMA)in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm in-jection and embryo transfer(IVF/ICSI-ET),and to initially explore the predictive value of Raman spectral analy-sis of embryo culture medium for clinical pregnancy rate.Methods:The study is a prospective randomized con-trolled clinical trial.We assigned 139 patients treated with IVF/ICSI-ET in Reproductive and Genetics Center of Suzhou Municipal Hospital from April 2019 to July 2020,which were randomly assigned to either the CMA or the TLM group.We performed selective single-embryo transfer(fresh cycle and FET)after selecting the optimal em-bryos with TLM or CMA respectively.If the patient's first embryo transfer was unsuccessful,a second one would be performed to compare the differences in the cumulative live birth rate of embryo transfer and other pregnancy outcomes between the two groups.Meanwhile,we collected 15 μl of embryo culture medium at day 3 after IVF/ISCI fertilization for Raman spectroscopy analysis.Results:There were no differences in cumulative live birth,cu-mulative clinical pregnancy,cumulative premature birth,cumulative early spontaneous abortion,cumulative ectopic pregnancy and LGA or SGA between TLM and CMA groups(P＞0.05).The Neonatal sex ratio in the TLM group was lower than that in the CMA group,but the difference was not significant(P＞0.05).Raman spectros-copy analysis of embryo culture medium predicted the clinical pregnancy rate with 67.21％accuracy.Conclu-sions:In young women with a good ovarian reserve,the advantage of using TLM to evaluate embryos is not obvi-ous,so we should remain vigilant that embryo selection based on morphokinetic parameters may affect the sex ratio.Raman spectroscopic analysis of embryo culture medium is not yet able to effectively predict the planting ability of embryos.

Objective:To optimize the existing protocols for the detection of sperm nuclear DNA integrity and to explore their application value in assisted reproductive technology.Methods:194 couples intending to undergo in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer(IVF-ET)treatment at the Affiliated Reproductive Hospital of Jiangxi University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 1,2021,to December 8,2022,were selected as the study subjects.The sperm samples from the male partners were collected as the control group,and the same semen,processed after optimization using a double-layer density gradient centrifugation method,was used as the observation group.According to the DNA fragmentation index(DFI)results,the control group and the observation group were divided into three subgroups,control group A and observation group A:DFI＜15％;control group B and observation group B:DFI 15％～30％;control group C and observation group C:DFI ≥30％.Then the DFI values of the observation group and control group were compared.The conditions of assisted pregnancy and pregnancy were analyzed among the subgroups.Results:①The sperm DNA fragmentation index(DFI)of the observation group was signifi-cantly lower than that of the control group[(13.55±10.17)％vs.(18.56±11.54)％,P＜0.05].②There was no significant difference in fertilization rate,cleavage rate and high-quality embryo rate among the six subgroups(P＞0.05).③There were significant differences in pregnancy rate and implantation rate among the six subgroups(P＜0.05);The clinical pregnancy rate(all above 65.00％)and implantation rate(all above 50.00％)were com-pared among four groups:control group A,control group B,observation group A and observation group B.There was no significant difference among the four groups(P＞0.05),but they were all higher than those of control group C(43.24％,31.67％)and observation group C(13.64％,8.82％)(P＜0.05).The clinical pregnancy rate and implantation rate in the control group were significantly higher than those in the observation group C(P＜0.05).Conclusions:The DNA integrity of sperm nucleus can be improved obviously after the sperm was opti-mized.Both of the two methods have good application value in assisted reproductive technology,but the DFI≥30％of semen after optimal treatment has a better predictive value for adverse pregnancy outcomes in ART.
