ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate application of femoston combined with Kuntai capsule in poor ovarian responders (PORs) receiving vitro fertilization. Methods 120 women with poor ovarian response after receiving IVF were s randomly elected. Pre-treatment with femoston plus Kuntai capsule was used for three menstrual cycles before the next cycle of assisted reproductive treatment. FSH, LH, E2, AMH, number of antral follicles, PSV, days of Gn, ampoules of Gn, cycle cancellation rate, E2 value of the day of HCG, follicle of less than 16mm, number of oocytes, fertilization rate, and number of good quality embryos were compared before and after treatment used. Results After pre-treatment, levels of FSH and LH were decreased, AMH, PSV were increased, E2 value of the day of HCG, number of antral follicles, follicle of less than 16 mm, oocytes, fertilization rate, and good quality embryos were increased; cycle cancellation rate was decreased, with significant differences (P< 0.05). Conclusions Femoston combined with kuntai capsule can effectively increase the functional reserve of the ovarian in poor ovarian responders, and can improve the outcome of IVF.
ABSTRACT
The sources of the indoor air pollutants are widely ranging and the kinds of pollutants are increasing.More and more attention has been paid to the adverse effects of the pollutants on human health.The current studies on the sources of the pollutants,the adverse effects on human health and the control techniques were reviewed in the present paper.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the influence of excessive magnesium and/or deficient calcium intake on the bone mass of ovariectomized rats. Methods Three-month-old ovariectomized rats were fed with different types of drinking water: Interaction group was fed with deficient-Ca and excessive-Mg water: Ca 5 mg/L, Mg 60 mg/L; Excessive-Mg group was Ca 60 mg/L, Mg 60 mg/L; Deficient-Ca group was Ca 5 mg/L, Mg 30 mg/L; Normal group was Ca 60 mg/L, Mg 30 mg/L. After 3 months of treatment, the left femur was measured with the length and weight, then the content of Ca and Mg were determined, right femur was X-rayed, and right tibia was taken for the pathological examination. Results Calcium deficiency in water caused significant changes in all of the bone mass indexes, magnesium excess in water showed a tendency of Ca decreasing and Mg increasing in the bone. It was easily distinguish the difference in bone mineral and bone microstructure by X-ray and pathological examination: control group was the best, then was Mg excess group, Ca deficiency group was inferior, and the interaction group was the worst. Conclusion Calcium deficiency is one of the major reasons of osteoporosis, while the excessive intake of magnesium may not only disturb the bone metabolism but also aggravate the adverse effect of Ca deficiency on bone mineral and bone health.
