ABSTRACT
To cultivate advanced nursing talents is the fundamental demand of nursing education in twenty-first century.This paper elaborated on the present application of university cooperative learning in clinical nursing practice aiming at combining the teaching theory with clinical practice,arousing nursing students' interest in learning and improving their team spirits and communication skills.Meanwhile,it is also conducive to the development of innovative experiment and further improvement of practical teaching quality.
ABSTRACT
Objective To survey birth defects of neonates conceived by using various types of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) between 1998 and 2007 in Shanghai. Methods From 1998 to 2007, 8507 neonates from 6551 pregnancies conceived through assistant reproductive technology (ART) from 7 reproductive medicine center in Shanghai were enrolled in this retrospective study, including Shanghai Ji-Ai Genetics and IVF Institute, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine affiliated Renji Hospital,Buijin Hospital, China Welfare Institute International Maternal and Infant Health Hospital, Shanghai First Maternity and Infant Health Hospital, Shanghai the Ninth People's Hospital and the Second Military Medical University affiliated Changhal Hospital. The clinical data about the type and incidence of birth defect were analyzed. Meanwhile, the factors associated with birth defect were investigated, such as various ART,gender, mother age, numbers of gestational sac, the source and quality of sperm. Results The birth defect rate was 1.08% (92/8507) and the most remarkable malformation occurred in circulation system [34% (31/92)]. The rates of major congenital malformations were 1.21% (34/2799) in fresh conventional IVF-ET, 1.07% (20/1871) in IVF-frozen-thawed embryo transfer(IVF-FET), 1.04% (23/2212) in fresh intracyto plasmic sperm injection (ICSI)-ET and 0.92% (15/1625) in ICSI-FET, which did not show statistical difference (P>0.05). There was also no significantly different incidence of malformations between 1.12% (49/4371) in male neonates and 1.02% (42/4136) in female neonates (P >0.05).However, the occurrence of congenital malformation is positively related with maternal age, the rates were 0.84% (41/4884) in mother's age less than 30 years and 1.77% (16/902) in mother' age more than 35 years, which reached statistical difference (P < 0.05). It also showed remarkable different incidence among 0.53% (25/4679) in singletons, 1.59% (57/3576) in twins and 3.97% (10/252) in triplets (P< 0.05). No remarkable difference of malformation rate among sperm sources used in fertilization were observed, including 1.09% (81/7419)in ejaculated sperm, 1.21% (7/579)in percutaneous epididymal aspiration (PESA) and 0. 79% (4/509) in donor sperm (P>0.05). Conclusions The overall incidence of birth defect in neonates from ART is similar to those conceived naturally and is not associated with different types of IVF-ET, embryo cryopreservation, sperm sources. However, maternal age and multiple pregnancies coder the higher possibility of birth defect.
ABSTRACT
[Objective]To evaluate the role of mature cumulus cells from oocyte-cumulus complex(OCC)in in-vitro maturation(IVM)and establish a new culture technique which is convenient to carry out.[Methods]The cumulus cells of OCC were cut off and dispersed by 1 mL syringe.The cumulus cells were co-cultured with the immature oocytes retrieved from the COH cycles after they adherent to the bottom of the dish.The immature oocytes were experienced IVM procedures in different culture media.They were divided into 3 groups(the oocytes at germinal vesicle stage from one woman were allotted to the same group randomly).Group 1(solution A):basic culture medium+human follicular fluid(hFF);Group 2(solution B):solution A+ cumulus cells(OCC);Group 3(solution C):solution A+ OCC+ follicle stimulating hormone(FSH)+ epidermal growth factor (EGF).Then,the maturation rate,fertilization rate and formation rate of available embryo were observed.[Results]In 113 treatment cycles,298 immature oocytes were performed IVM with solution A,B,and C.The difference for 24 hour maturation rates among 3 groups wag statistically significant(A:45.2%,B:61.7%,C:78.2%,P＜0.05).There was no statistical difference for 25～48 hour maturation rates and normal fertilization rates of mature oocytes.The differences of cleavage rates and rescued embryo rates between group 1 and 2,group 1 and 3 were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The formation rates of available embryo showed an increasing trend from group 1,2,to 3.[Conclusion]After being dispersed by simply beat upon with syringe and adherent culture,the mature cumulus eells from mature OCCs in COH cycles,together with growth factors in the follicular fluid or extraneously supplemented,could promote the IVM of immature oocyte.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effectiveness of the fallopian tubes embolization for the hydrosalpinx before in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer(IVF-ET).Methods The fallopian tubes embolization was performed on 46 hydrosalpinx patients-Fimt the hysterosalpingography was performed to show the positions and shape of the hydrosalpinx.Then the hydrops was drawn into the celiac cavity in order to be absorbed after performing fallopian tube recanalization. Finally,transv(o)ihal therapy was performed,putting the embolization microcoils into the fallopian tube through a micro-catheter.One month after the fallopian tubes embolization,hystemsalpingography was conducted to check for the effectiveness of the embolization.After 3 months.all the 46 patients received the treatment of IVF-ET,Results The interventional treatment of 82 fallopian tubes obtained one time success among 46 cases of fallopian tubes embolization.Among them,obvious results were achieved in 72 fallopian tubes,taking up 88%0f tIle total;effective results were seen in 10 fallopian tubes.accounting for 12%0f the total.No one was invalid.In the same period,compared with the 91 cases of non-hydrosalpinx as the control group.the embolization group of patients achieved a higher fertilization rate(69%),and clinical pregnancy rate(41%),compared with the control group(63%and 39%respectively),but without a significant difference(P>0.05).However,the ectopic pregnancy rate(O)and the abortion rate(8%)were significantly lower than the control group(8%,16%respectively;P<0.05).Conclusions Fallopian tubes embolization used in hydrosalpinx treatment before IVF-ET is an innovative approach,simple,safe,economical,with no negative impact on ovarian functiorr It can significantly increase the clinical pregnancy rate and prevent the occurrence of tubal pregnancy.It is a feasible and effective method.
