 To sort out the relevant studies on the fertility preservation of cancer patients in the past decade in order to present the research hotspots and research frontiers, and to compare the hotspots related to fertility preservation of cancer patients at home and abroad, so as to provide evidences for the further researches related to fertility preservation in China. Methods: The literatures had been collected from the core databases, such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, Wipu, Sinomed, Pubmed, and Web of science from January 2012 to December 2021, and were analyzed by Citespace software. Results: A total of 4574 English literatures and 485 Chinese literatures were included for analysis. The English and Chinese literatures on fertility preservation of the cancer patients had been rising year by year in the last decade, but the rising trend of foreign literatures were significantly higher than that of Chinese literatures. The related literatures from United States were the leader in fertility preservation of cancer patients, which were far ahead from other countries. The studied cancer patients mainly included breast cancer, cervical cancer, and endometrial cancer, and so on. The age of the population in these studies had gradually shifted from those of childbearing age to those of children and adolescents with cancer. The main techniques in these studies included the modification of surgical model and the vitrification used for embryo freezing, the oocyte freezing, the sperm cryopreservation, and the ovarian tissue freezing, and so on. The foreign guidelines of the fertility preservation of the cancer patients were well established relatively, while the guidelines of the fertility preservation of the cancer patients were rather lacking in China. Conclusion: Fertility preservation is in its infancy in China, and the research depth and breadth of which still needs to be expanded. The international research hotspots of the fertility preservation should be learned by China and the Chinese guideline of the fertility preservation should be improved, so as to ensure the standardization and safety of the fertility preservation process in China.

To investigate the association between the fat mass and obesity (FTO) related gene polymorphisms in rs9939609 and rs8050136 sites of pregnant women and their gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) occurrence. Methods:The literatures about the association between the FTO related gene polymorphisms in rs9939609 and rs8050136 sites of the pregnant women and their GDM occurrence were searched from databases, such as Pubmed,EMBASE,and Wanfang,and web of science. The literatures were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Odds ratio(OR) and 95%CI were used to assess the association between the FTO related gene polymorphisms in rs9939609 and rs8050136 sites of the pregnant women and their GDM occurrence by random or fixed-effect models. Results:A total of 11 literatures were included in this meta-analysis,which were 2364 women with GDM and 4425 healthy pregnant women. In the three models of FTO related gen polymorphisms in rs9939609 site, the OR of AA to TT was 1.53 (95%CI:1.22-1.91,Ph=0.164), the OR of AA to TT+AT was 1.43 (95%CI  1.17-1.74, Ph=0.500), and the OR of AA+AT to TT was OR=1.22 (95%CI 1.04-1.44,Ph=0.054). It was suggested that FTO gene polymorphism in RS9939609 site of the women was associated with their GDM susceptibility. The subgroup analysis was conducted according to the sample size of the studies and the genotyping method of the women in the observation group, which had showed that FTO related gene polymorphism in RS9939609 site were all associated with the GDM susceptibility when the sample size >150 cases, or grouping by RT-PCR and Taq- MAN. 5 models of FTO related gene polymorphism in RS8050136 site gene had no statistical significance. Conclusion:FTO gene polymorphisms in rs9939609 site of the pregnant women may be a susceptible polymorphic locus of their GDM occurrence,while FTO gene polymorphisms in rs8050136 site may not be associated with their GDM occurrence.

To observe the effects of PI3K agonist on the expression of PI3K/Akt/Foxo3a protein levels, cell cycle, and apoptosis protein of ovary of newborn rats. Methods: The ovaries of female rats of aged in 7 days (7d) were cultured in vitro and were randomly divided into control group (the ovaries of the rats were cultured without PI3K activator or PI3K pathway inhibitor for 7d), group A (the ovaries of the rats were cultured by PI3K activator for 7d), and group B (the ovaries of the rats were cultured by PI3K pathway inhibitor for 7d). The follicular morphology of ovarian tissue cultured for 5d was observed by HE staining, and the apoptosis of ovarian cells was detected by fluorescence microscope method. Western blot was used to compare the protein expressions of P-Akt, P-Foxo3a, CDK2, P27, Bcl-2, and TAP63, and PCR was used to detect the mRNA expressions of PI3K, Akt, Foxo3a, Bcl-2, p27, Cdk2, and Tap63 in the ovarian tissues on the 3rd d, 5th d, and 7th d after culture. Results:The protein expressions of PI3K, p-AKT, p-FOXO3A, BCL-2, CDK2, and TAP63 in the ovarian tissues of the rats in group A had increased significantly (P<0.01), especially on the 5th day after culture (P<0.05), but then which had decreased gradually after the 7th day after culture (P<0.05). The protein expression of P27 protein of the rats in group A had decreased significantly. The protein expressions of PI3K, p-AKT, p-FOXO3A, BCL-2, CDK2, and TAP63 in ovarian tissues of the rats in group B had increased significantly (P<0.01), but the protein expression of P27 protein of the rats had decreased significantly. Conclusion: Activation of PI3K/AKT/Foxo3a signaling pathway can promote the development of primitive follicles, and the mechanism of which may be related to the up-regulation of the protein expression of PI3K, AKT, FOXO3A, BCL-2, CDK2, and TAP63 in ovarian tissues, and related to the down-regulation of the expression of P27 protein.

To investigate the contraceptive methods and contraceptive behavior of unmarried women after induced abortion. Methods: A total of 188 unmarried women who had undergone induced abortion were selected as the respondents. Through questionnaires and follow-up, the contraceptive knowledge and attitude, as well as the contraceptive status of these respondents were investigated. Results: 2.1% respondents knew a lot of contraceptive knowledge, and 29.8% respondents knew a little of contraceptive knowledge. 71.8% respondents knew the contraceptive knowledge from internet. The awareness rate of condom of the respondents was the highest (100.0%), while the awareness rates of other contraceptive methods of the respondents were all less than 50.0%, especially the awareness rates of implantation contraceptive and contraceptive injection of the respondents were only 4.8% and 2.7%, respectively. 97.9% respondents thought it was necessary to know about contraception, 88.8% respondents were willing to contraception used on their own initiative, and 75.0% respondents thought that the abortion would have an adverse impact on their future love and marriage. The score of contraceptive knowledge attitude of the respondents was 51.6±7.7 points (the range 12.0-75.0 points), which was the lowest. One week after abortion, the utilization rate of high effective contraceptive of the respondents was 89.9%, which included 147 cases with combination oral contraceptive (COC) used, 20 cases with long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) used, and 2 cases with long-acting contraceptive injection used. In the first month after abortion, the utilization rate of high effective contraceptive of the respondents decreased to 58.0%. In the third month after abortion, the utilization rate of high effective contraceptive of the respondents decreased to 37.6%, but the utilization rate of non-effective contraceptive of the respondents increased to 52.7%. In the 6th month after abortion, the un-contraceptive rate of the respondents increased to 15.5%. In the 12th month after abortion, the utilization rate of high effective contraceptive of the respondents decreased to 29.7%, but the utilization rate of non-effective contraceptive of the respondents increased to 22.5%, and the rate of unintended pregnancy of the respondents was 8.11%. In the last follow-up, the continuation rates of COC and LARC of the respondents were 25.2% and 75.0%, respectively. Survival curve analysis showed that the usage rate of the non-high effective contraceptive of the respondents was significantly higher than that of the high effective contraceptive of the respondents (P<0.05). The main reason for not continual COC used of the respondents was “difficult to adhere to daily timed medication", and that of followed by "adverse reaction of drug". The main reason for abandoning LARC used of the respondents was "adverse reactions". Conclusion: Unmarried women who underwent induced abortion have a low level of contraceptive knowledge, but their postoperative contraceptive attitude is positive. Most of these women will adopt highefficient contraceptive methods after PAC, but most of them cannot persist in using the high-efficient contraceptive methods with low continuation rate, so it is suggested that preoperative consultation service for the unmarried women should be strengthened.

To investigate the depression status of the perimenopausal women of Nanping city, and to analyze its related influencing factors. Methods: Stratified cluster sampling was used to investigate the current situation of women aged 45-55 in Nanping city. Questionnaires were issued to investigate the general situation, the personality characteristics, and the situations of depression and perimenopausal syndrome of the women. The relevant factors affecting depression of the perimenopausal women were analyzed. Results: Among 1000 perimenopausal women who had been investigated, the incidence of perimenopausal syndrome was 80.2%, which include 48.5% women with mild perimenopausal syndrome, 20.5% women with moderate perimenopausal syndrome, and 11.2% women with severe perimenopausal syndrome, and the rate of depressive symptoms of the women was 46.5%. The rates of divorce/widowhood, no health insurance, chronic disease, no exercise, with perimenopausal syndromes of the women with depression were significantly higher than those women without depression, but the rates of the harmonious marital relationship and the harmonious relationship with children of the women with depression were significantly lower than those women without depression (P<0.05). As for the personality characteristics scores, the neuroticism N and psychoticism P scores of the women with depression were significantly higher than those of the women without depression, but the inward and outward E scores of the women with depression were significantly lower than those of the women without depression (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the camouflage L score between the women with and without depression (P>0.05). The proportion of the women with representative depression by neuroticism N and psychoticism P scale was significantly higher than that of the women without depression, and the proportion of the introversive women with depression by introversion E scale was significantly higher than that of the women without depression (P<0.05). Multiple regression analysis showed that divorced/widowed, chronic diseases, perimenopausal syndrome, poor marital relationship, and poor relationships with children, typical neuroticism, typical mental quality, and introversion of the postmenopausal women were the risk factors affecting their depressive symptoms, but exercise regularly and extroversion of the postmenopausal women were the protective factors affecting their depressive symptoms (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The detection rate of depressive symptoms of the perimenopausal women in Nanping city is high, which suggests that the relevant management departments should pay attention to. And the perimenopausal women with high risk factors of depression should be given necessary psychological counseling in time, so as to reduce the occurrence of perimenopausal depression.

To understand the situation and the possible risk factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes of women of childbearing age in rural areas of Haikou, and to provide reference for reducing the occurrence of adverse pregnancy outcomes of Haikou. Methods: From January 1, 2019 to February 28, 2021, 2,335 rural married women of childbearing age in Haikou who participated in the national free pre-pregnancy healthy birth examination program were selected as the subjects. The pregnant situation during the first trimester of pregnancy and the pregnancy outcomes of these women were followed up. Results: Among 2335 women, 1356 women were pregnancy within 1 year after participation of the national free pre-pregnancy healthy birth examination program, with the pregnant rate of 58.1%. Among them, 93 (6.9%) women had adverse pregnancy outcomes. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that maternal age ≥35 years old, the value of body mass index ≥24 kg/m2, the education level of the women or their husband less than high school, the smoking or passive smoking, the exposure to harmful substances, and the reproductive tract infection were all the risk factors of their adverse pregnancy outcomes (P<0.05). Conclusion: It is suggested that local management departments should be strengthen the publicity and education, and the couples with risks of adverse pregnancy outcomes who planning to pregnancy should be counselling to avoid the adverse risks mentioned above, and should be strengthened the awareness of self health care and selfprotecting of reproductive tract, so as to reduce the occurrence of adverse pregnancy of the women.

To explore the effects of laparoscopic surgery combined with gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist (GnRH-α) for treating infertility patients with endometriosis (EM) on the levels of their serum AsAb, AEMab, AZpAb, and their ovarian function. Methods:In this prospective research, the infertility patients with EM were enrolled and were divided into observation group (62 cases) and control group (60 cases) by the wishes of the patients from September 2015 to September 2018. The patients in the control group were treated by laparoscopic surgery combined with progesterone therapy, while the patients in the observation group were treated by laparoscopic surgery combined with GnRH-α. In the 3rd or 6th month after surgery, the pain situations of the patients in the two groups were evaluated by visual analogous scale (VAS). The levels of serum autoimmune antibodies, such as AsAb, AEMab, AZpAb, and the ovarian function indexes levels, such as stradiol (E2), luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), of the patients in the two groups were detected. The situations of pregnancy and recurrence of EM of the patients in the two groups were followed up. Results:In the 3rd or 6th month after surgery, the VAS score and the serum FSH, LH and E2 levels of the patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those of the patients in the control group, and the positive rates of serum AsAb (8.1%), AEmAb (6.5%), and AZpAb (6.5%) of the patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those (21.0%, 17.7%, and 17.7%) of the patients in the control group. The cumulative pregnancy rate of the patients in the observation group in the 12th month (50.0%) and the 24th month (67.7%) after surgery were significantly higher than those (30.0% and 46.7%) of the patients in the control group (all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the recurrence rate of the patients between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion:Laparoscopic surgery combined with GnRH-αfor treating infertility patients with EM can increase their pregnancy rate and reduce the recurrence of EM after surgery, and the mechanism of which may be related to the immunosuppressive effect of GnRH-αand to the regulation effect of sex hormone.

To investigate the efficacy of labetalol combined with low molecular heparin for treating pregnant women with early-onset severe preeclampsia, and to study it influence on the urinary protein level and their maternal and infant outcomes of these women. Methods: 112 pregnant women with early-onset severe preeclampsia who would delivery in hospital from January 2020 to June 2021 were selected prospectively and were divided into two groups (56 cases in each group) according to the random number table method. The women in the control group were treated with labetalol combined with magnesium sulfate, and the women in the study group were treated with labetalol and magnesium sulfate combined with low molecular heparin. The clinical efficacy before treatment and 1 week after treatment, the incidence of adverse reaction during treatment, the levels of serum angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ) and lipid per oxidation (LPO), the values of blood diastolic pressure (DP), blood systolic pressure (SP), and 24h proteinuria, the maternal and infant outcomes, and the difference of coagulation function of the were compared between the two groups. Results: After 1 week of treatment, the effective rate (96.4%) of the women in the study group was significantly higher than that (83.9%) of the women in the control group (P<0.05). During treatment, there were women with nausea, vomiting, fatigue, headache, fever, and other adverse reactions in both groups, and of the women in the control group also had rash, constipation, and other adverse reactions. The incidence of adverse reactions (12.5%) of the women in the study group was significantly lower than that (28.6%) of the women in the control group (P<0.05). 1 week after treatment, the levels of AngⅡ and LOP of the women in the two groups had decreased significantly, and which (9.65±1.31 nmol/L) of the women in the study group was significantly lower than that (13.43±2.24 nmol/L) of the women in the control group. The values of DP and SP, and the 24h proteinuria of the women in both groups had decreased significantly, and which (83.42±2.52 mmHg, 132.76±5.98 mmHg, and 1.12±0.36 g) of the women in the study group were significantly lower than those (88.75±2.54 mmHg, 140.54±5.98mmHg, and 1.91±0.61 g) of the women in the control group (all P<0.05). The incidences of preterm birth (1.8%), postpartum hemorrhage (3.6%), neonatal asphyxia (1.8%), placental abruption (3.6%), and fetal distress (3.6%) of the women in the study group were significantly lower than those (5.4%, 8.9%, 14.3%, 16.1%, and 16.1%) of the women in the control group. The incidences of neonatal asphyxia, placental abruption, and fetal distress of the women in the control group were significantly higher than those of the women in the study group (all P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of prothrombin time and thrombin time of the women in the study group had increased significantly, while the levels of plasma fibrinogen and D-dimer had decreased significantly, and the improving degrees of which (12.43±1.67s, 17.96±2.51s, 3.51± 1.04g /L, and 0.48± 0.11mg /ml) of the women in the study group were significantly better than those (10.99±1.33s, 16.59±2.21s, 4.62± 1.09g /L, and 0.92±0.22mg/mL) of the women in the control group (P<0.05).

To explore the effects of the combined spinal-epidural anesthesia with different concentrations of ropivacaine used in cesarean section of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on their postoperative pain and micro-circulation. Methods: A total of 96 pregnant women with GDM who wanted cesarean section in selected time were selected and were random divided in three groups (32 cases in each group) between June 2019 and October 2020. During the combined spinal-epidural anesthesia in the cesarean section, the women in group A were given 0.25% ropivacaine, the women were given in group B 0.375% ropivacaine, and the women in group C were given 0.5% ropivacaine. The anesthesia effect of the women was compared among the three groups. The degrees of static and dynamic postoperative pain of the women were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS). Before surgery, and at 24h and 48h after surgery, the micro-circulation indexes values of the women in the three groups were detected by nailfold micro-circulation tester. The mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) values of the women in the three groups at 15min after anesthesia and 2h after surgery were monitored. The incidence of adverse reactions during anesthesia of the women was compared among the three groups. Results: The anesthesia block time, the Bromage score, and the sensory block level of the women in group C were significantly higher than those of the women in group A and group B, and the static VAS scores at 2 h and 4 h after cesarean section, and the dynamic VAS scores of the women in group C at 1 h, 2 h and 4 h after cesarean section were significantly lower than those of the women in group A and group B. The length and the width of loops of the women in group C at 24 h and 48 h after cesarean section were significantly higher than those of the women in group A and group B (all P<0.05). After 15 min of anesthesia, the MAP value of the women in group A was significantly higher than that of the women in group B and group C, the HR value of the women in group A was significantly lower than that of the women in group B and group C, and the incidence of total adverse reactions (6.3%) of the women in group A was significantly lower than that (18.8%) of the women in group B and that (31.3%) of the women in group C (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The combined spinal-epidural anesthesia with different concentrations of ropivacaine used in cesarean section of the women with GDM has better anesthetic effect, and 0.5% ropivacaine has the best postoperative analgesic effects and has the lowest influence on the micro-circulation of the women. While 0.25% ropivacaine has fewer effect on the maternal hemodynamics with lower incidence of adverse reactions.

To detect the expression levels of melanoma antigen gene-A3 (MAGE-A3) and melanoma antigen gene-A6 (MAGE-A6) in the peripheral blood circulation of patients with cervical cancer, and to explain their clinical significance. Methods: The peripheral blood circulation of 85 women with cervical cancer (in observation group) and 85 healthy volunteers (in control group) were collected from June 2015 to June 2016, and the monocyte were separate from the peripheral blood circulation of these women. The expression levels of MAGE-A3 and MAGE-A6 mRNA in the peripheral blood circulation of the women in the two groups were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR technology, and the correlation between which of the women with cervical cancer and their clinical parameters was analyzed. The patients with cervical cancer were followed up for 5 years, and their survival status was recorded. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the correlation between the expression levels of MAGE-A3 and MAGE-A6 mRNA of the women with cervical cancer and their prognosis. Results: The relative expression levels of MAGE-A3 (1.63±0.34) and MAGE-A6 mRNA (1.79±0.52) of the women in the observation group were significantly higher than those (1.00±0.00 and 1.00±0.00) of the women in the control group (P<0.05). The expression level of MAGE-A3 mRNA of the women in the observation group was correlated with their clinicopathological grade and lymph node metastasis of cervical cancer (P<0.05), but which was not correlated with their age, menopausal status, and pathological type of the women (P>0.05). The MAGE-A6 mRNA expression level of the women in the observation group was correlated with their lymph node metastasis (P<0.05), but which was not correlated with their age, menopausal status, pathological type and pathological grade of cervical cancer (P>0.05). In the observation group, the 5-year survival rate of the women with high expression level of MAGE-A3 mRNA or with high expression level of MAGE-A6 mRNA (41.9% or 44.2%) was significantly lower than that (69.1% or 66.7%) of the women with low expression level of MAGE-A3 mRNA or with low expression level of MAGE-A6 mRNA (P=0.008 or 0.014). Conclusion: The expression levels of MAGE-A3 and MAGE-A6 mRNA in the peripheral blood of the women with cervical cancer are abnormal increased, and which are closely related to the occurrence and development of cervical cancer. The high expression levels of MAGE-A3 and MAGE-A6 mRNA are related to the poor prognosis of the women with cervical cancer, which means that the MAGE-A3 and MAGE-A6 mRNA levels may be used as the clinical treatment targets and prognostic indicators of cervical cancer.

To investigate the effects of nalbuphine hydrochloride injection on the analgesic effect, depression, and recovery situation of women after cesarean section. Methods: From June 2019 to June 2020, 120 pregnant women who wanted cesarean section were randomly selected and were divided into two groups (60 cases in each group). Nalbuphine hydrochloride injection was given to the women in the observation group for postoperative analgesia, and sufentanil was given to the women in the control group for postoperative analgesia. The postoperative analgesic effect, the depression mood situation, the inflammatory factors levels, and the adverse reactions rate of the women after cesarean section were compared between the two groups. Results: The visual analogue scale (VAS) score of analgesia of the women in the observation group at 6h after analgesia (2.27±0.58 points), 24h after analgesia (1.74±0.52 points), and 48h after analgesia (0.96±0.36 points) were significantly lower than those (3.18±1.21 points, 2.41±2.15 points, and 2.02±1.17 points) of the women in the control group. The score (3.87±0.44 points) by Postpartum Edinburgh Postpartum Depression Scale (EPDS) of the women in the observation group was significantly lower than that (5.78±0.41 points) of the women in the control group. The levels of serum interleukin-6 and C-reactive protein of the women in the observation group at 24h and 48h after analgesia were significantly lower than of the women in the control group, and the incidence of adverse reactions (8.3%) of the women in the observation group was significantly lower than that (23.3%) of the women in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Nalbuphine hydrochloride injection after cesarean section has better postoperative analgesic effect of the women, can improve their depression and reduce their inflammatory response, and which can also improve their recovery after cesarean section.

To detect the expression of circulating long non-coding NTF3-5 (Lnc-NTF3-5) in peripheral blood of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and to study the correlation between the Lnc-NTF3-5 level of the patients and their insulin resistance (IR). Methods: 108 patients with PCOS were included in study group during December 2018 to December 2020, and 108 healthy women with the matching age who underwent physical examinations were included control group during the same period. Fasting venous blood of the patients in the two groups were collected. Real-time fluorescence quantification and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were used to detect the levels of Lnc-NTF3-5 and CRP of the patients in the two groups, respectively. The patients in the study group were also divided into group A (the patients with IR) and group B (the patients without IR) according to homeostatic model assessment (HOMA-IR) index of the patients. The Lnc-NTF3-5 expression level and the HOMA-IR value of the patients were compared among these groups. Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between the Lnc-NTF3-5 level of the patients with PCOS and their CRP and sex hormone levels, and their HOMA-IR value. Results: The levels of Lnc-NTF3-5 and CRP of the patients in the study group were significantly higher than those of the patients in the control group, and the Lnc-NTF3-5 level and the HOMA-IR value of the patients in group A were significantly higher than those of the patients in group B (all P<0.05). The expression of Lnc-NTF3-5 of the patients in the study group was positively correlated with their levels of CRP, luteinizing hormone, testosterone, and estradiol, and their HOMA-IR value, but was negatively correlated with their follicle stimulating hormone level (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The expression of Lnc-NTF3-5 in peripheral blood of the patients with PCOS is up-regulated, which may play an important role in their IR by affecting the inflammatory response and the sex hormone endocrine of the patients. It provides the new ideas for studying the potential mechanism of IR and the identification of new therapeutic targets of the patients with PCOS.

To analyze the characteristics of postpartum lipid metabolism of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and to study its influencing factors. Methods: 164 pregnant women with GDM were selected in study group, and 160 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance were selected in control group from January 2018 to October 2019. According to blood lipid indexes of the women in postpartum 6-8 weeks, the women in the study groups were further divided into group A (women with hyperlipidemia) and group B (women with normal blood lipid metabolism). The levels of blood lipid metabolism indexes of the women in postpartum 6-8 weeks were compared between the study group and the control group. The risk factors of postpartum hyperlipidemia of the women with GDM were analyzed. Results: The levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) of the women in the study group at delivery, and in 6 to 8 weeks after delivery were significantly higher than those of the women in the control group, while high density lipoprotein (HDL) level of the women in the study group was significantly lower than that of the women in the control group (P<0.05). The age, the proportion of poor blood glucose control, and the postpartum body mass index (BMI) value of the women in group A were significantly higher than those of the women in group B (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the value of gestational weight gain, the proportion of primiparas, the insulin treatment rate, the gestational weeks at delivery, and the BMI value at enrollment in this study, and the newborn birth weight of the women between group A and group B (P>0.05). The levels of TC, TG, LDL, and 2h blood glucose level of oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) of the women in group A were significantly higher than those of the women in group B (P<0.05), and there were no significant differences in the levels of HDL, FPG, and 1 h blood glucose of OGTT of the women between group A and group B (P>0.05). The postpartum BMI value, the poor blood glucose control, the abnormal increase of the levels of TC and TG during delivery, and 2h blood glucose level of OGTT during pregnancy were the independent risk factors of postpartum hyperlipidemia of the pregnant women with GDM (P<0.05). Conclusion: In postpartum 6-8 weeks, the women with GDM still has abnormal lipid metabolism, especially for those women with obese, with poor blood glucose control during pregnancy, and with the high levels of TC and TG during delivery, or with the high 2h blood glucose level of OGTT during pregnancy have the high risk of postpartum hyperlipidemia.

Methods: From June 2017 to June 2018, 79 patients with ovarian serous tumors who would surgically treat were selected as the research objects, and the general information and clinicopathological parameters of the patients were collected. 79 pathological tissue specimens of these patients were collected during the operation, and these patients were divided into group A (54 cases with malignant ovarian serous tumors), group B (15 cases with ovarian borderline serous tumor), and group C (10 cases with benign ovarian serous cystadenoma) according to their pathological results. The expressions of ALDH1 and SOX2 proteins in the tissues were detected by immunohistochemical staining. These patients were followed up for 3 years. The correlation between ALDH1 and SOX2 expression levels of the patients and their clinical pathological parameters and the factors affecting the prognosis of the patients were analyzed. Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between the expression level of ALDH1 in ovarian serous tumor tissue of the patients and their SOX2 level. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the correlation between the different ALDH1 and SOX2 expression levels of the patients and their survival time. Results: The high expression rates of ALDH1 protein in serous ovarian serous tumors tissues of the patients in group A, group B, and group C were 66.7%, 46.8%, and 20.0%, respectively, and the high expression rates of SOX2 protein in serous ovarian serous tumors tissues of the patients in group A, group B, and group C were 83.3%, 26.7%, and 20.0%, respectively, which were all decreased gradually (P<0.05). There was a positive correlation between the ALDH1 expression and the SOX2 expression in pathological tissues (P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the FIGO stage, the lymph node metastasis, the pelvic invasion, the greater omentum metastasis, and ki-67, ALDH1, and SOX2 protein expressions of the patients were correlated with their prognosis (P<0.05). Kaplan-Meiermeie analysis showed that the 3-year cumulative survival rate of the patients with high ALDH1 and SOX2 protein expressions was significantly lower than that of the patients with low ALDH1 and SOX2 protein expressions (P=0.000). Conclusion: ALDH1 and SOX2 proteins are highly expressed in the ovarian serous tumors tissues, and their expressions are obviously positively correlated with their severity of disease. The expression levels of ALDH1 and SOX2 proteins of the patient are closely related to their disease development, and which have certain reference value for predicting the prognosis of patients.

To explore the relationship between the body composition value and serum adipokines level of women and their polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) occurrence.  Methods: 65 women with PCOS were selected in study group, and 55 healthy women were randomly selected in control group. The body composition value, and the levels of serum adiponectin (ADP), plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1(PAI-1), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), sex hormones, blood lipids (BL), and fasting blood glucose (FBG) of the women in the two groups were detected. And statistically analysis was conducted. Results: The levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), total testosterone (TT), low density lipoprotein (LDL-C), apolipoprotein B(ApoB), apolipoprotein A1(ApoA1), and the values of body mass index (BMI), body fat, and visceral fat of the women in the study group were significant higher than those of the women in the control group. The levels of serum high density lipoprotein (HDL-C), ApoA1, and ADP of the women in the study group were significant lower than those of the women in the control group (all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that homeostasis model assessment - insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) value of the women was positively correlated with their values of BMI, waist-hip ratio (WHR), visceral fat area, and body fat content, but was negatively correlated with their serum ADP level. Logistic regression analysis showed that HOMA-IR value (aOR=1.800, 95%CI 1.051-3.083), ADP (AOR=0.032, 95%CI 0.001-0.992), visceral fat area (aOR=1.039, 95%CI 1.007-1.079), and skeletal muscle (aOR=0.665, 95%CI 0.457-0.947) were the independent influencing factors for PCOS after adjusted age and BMI value.  Conclusion: The visceral fat area and serum ADP level are the independent predictors of PCOS. The visceral fat area may promote the occurrence and development of PCOS by IR. The mechanism of serum ADP participating in PCOS may be related to IR. ADP level can used as a serological marker of the diseases related to IR.

To explore the changes of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [(OH)D] and pre-S1 antigen (PreS1Ag) levels of pregnant women with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, and to study their correlation with the prognosis of the perinatal infants. Methods: A total of 109 pregnant women with HBV infection were selected and were divided into 41 women with infection symptom in group A and asymptomatic 68 women in group B from August 2018 to June 2020. Another 62 normal pregnant women were enrolled group C during the same period. The levels of serum 25-(OH) D and PreS1Ag of the women were compared among the three groups. The correlation between the serum 25-(OH) D and PreS1Ag levels of the women and their perinatal infants was analyzed. Results: The serum 25-(OH) D level of the women in group A (20.17±1.09 ng/ml) was significantly lower than that of the women in group B or group C, and the positive rate of PreS1Ag of the women in group A (75.6%) was significantly higher than that of the women in group B or group C. The incidences of the pregnancy complications and the adverse pregnancy outcomes of the women in group A were significantly higher than those of the women in group B or group C (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidences of the pregnancy complications and the adverse pregnancy outcomes of the women between group B and group C (P>0.05). The range of the serum 25-(OH)D levels of the women with PreS1Ag positive were mainly in the two intervals of 10-19 ng/mL and 20-29 ng/ml. The incidence of perinatal adverse prognosis (46.3%) of the women with PreS1Ag positive was significantly higher than that (11.9%) of the women with PreS1Ag negative (P<0.05). The serum 25-(OH) D level of the women in group A was correlated with their PreS1Ag positive rate and their perinatal adverse prognosis (P<0.05). Conclusion: The abnormal changes of serum 25-(OH) D and PreS1Ag levels of the pregnant women with HBV infection will affect the prognosis of their perinatal infants. The incidence of adverse prognosis of perinatal infants of the women with PreS1Ag positive or with low serum 25-(OH) D level is higher, which indicates that early intervention and treatment for those women with PreS1Ag positive or with low serum 25-(OH)D level can improve the prognosis of their perinatal infants in clinic.

Methods: The dry blood filter paper samples of 105,742 newborns in Guiyang area from November 16, 2015 to December 31, 2019 were collected, and tandem mass-spectrometric technique of amino acid and acylcarnitine profiles (11 kinds of amino acids, 30 kinds of acylcarnitine, free Carnitine, and succinylacetone) were performed to screen a variety of genetic metabolic diseases of these newborns. The positive rates of initial screening of the newborns during different periods and from different regions were statistically analyzed, and the characteristics of the newborns with positive results in initial screening were analyzed. Results: There were 1413 neonates with multiple positive genetic metabolic diseases screened by tandem mass-spectrometric technique, and the positive rate was 1.34%. A total of 14 neonates were diagnosed with genetic metabolic diseases, and the population prevalence was 1/7553. The screening positive rate of the neonates in early 2018 was 2.40%, which was relatively high in different years. In the neonates from different prefectures and municipia, the positive rate in western and northern of Guiyang were higher, while which in the eastern and southern of Guiyang were lower. Regression analysis showed that the preterm birth and the low birth weight of the neonates were the characteristic factors of the positive neonates in preliminary screening. Conclusion: There are certain prevalence of the neonatal multiple genetic metabolic diseases in neonates in Guiyang area. The positive rate of neonatal genetic metabolic diseases during the initial screening of these neonates born in different year and from different regions is different, and which of the premature infants or the low weight neonates are higher. Therefore, tandem mass-spectrometric technique should be strengthened to screen multiple genetic metabolic diseases of the neonates, so as to detect, diagnose, and treat these diseases as soon as possible.

Methods: From June 2019 to June 2021, 52 women with placenta previa who underwent cesarean section for pregnancy termination were included in observation group, and another 50 women without pregnancy comorbidities who also underwent cesarean section due to maternal pelvis size, fetal size, or maternal hip girth were included in control group. The peripheral venous blood of the women in the two groups was collected immediately after cesarean section, and the serum PGE1 and GPX1 levels of the women were detected. The postpartum hemorrhage of the women were calculated by volumetric method combined with weighing method. The postpartum hemorrhage and the serum PGE1 and GPX1 levels of the women were compared between the two groups, and which of the women with different clinical characteristics in the observation group were also observed and compared. The value of the serum PGE1 and GPX1 levels of the women for predicting their postpartum hemorrhage was analyzed. Results: The levels of serum PGE1 (41.15±10.17 pg/ml) and GPX1 (34.15±3.36 U/L) of the women in the observation group were significantly lower than those (53.64±12.16 pg/ml and 47.45±5.56 U/L) of the women in the control group. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage (50.0%) of the women in the observation group was significantly higher than that (4.0%) of the women in the control group (P<0.05), the average blood loss (1164.59±179.58 ml) of the women in the observation group was significantly higher than that (619.69±56.69 ml) of the women in the control group. In the observation group, the serum levels of PGE1 and GPX1 of the women with postpartum massive hemorrhage were significantly lower than those of the women without postpartum massive hemorrhage, which of the women with placenta attachment position in the uterine anterior wall, the women with placenta implantation, or the women with central placenta previa were all significantly lower than those of the women without placenta attachment position in the anterior wall, the women without placenta implantation, or the women without central placenta previa. In the observation group, the average postpartum blood loss of the women with placenta attachment position in the uterine anterior wall, the women with placenta implantation, or the women with central placenta previa was all significantly higher than those of the women without placenta attachment position in the anterior wall, the women without placenta implantation, or the women without central placenta previa (all P<0.05). Pearson linear correlation analysis showed that the serum PGE1 and GPX1 levels of the women with placenta previa after cesarean section were negatively correlated with their postpartum blood loss (P<0.05). Drawing receiver operating characteristic curve, the postpartum serum PGE1 level (AUC=0.759) and the GPX1 level (AUC=0.749) of the women with placenta previa had certain value efficacy for predicting their postpartum hemorrhage, and the combined levels of the serum PGE1 and GPX1 had the best predicted efficacy for postpartum hemorrhage (AUC=0.826). Conclusion: Detection of the serum PGE1 and GPX1 levels of the women with placenta previa after cesarean section has certain guiding significance in evaluating their postpartum hemorrhage in clinic.

To explore the correlation between the expressions of serum thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP) and glucoseregulated protein 78(GRP78) of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and their insulin resistance (IR). Methods: 94 pregnant women diagnosed as GDM by oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT) were selected in study group, and 94 pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance(NGT) were selected in control group from November 2018 to April 2021. The age, the family history of diabetes, the fasting blood glucose(FBG) level, the pre-pregnancy body mass index(BMI) value, the fasting insulin(FINS) level, the homeostasis model insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR) value, and the gestational weeks, and other data of the women were compared between the two groups. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) was used to measure the levels of serum TXNIP and GRP78. Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between the serum TXNIP and GRP78 levels of the women with GDM and their HOMA-IR value. Receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve was used to evaluate the value of serum TXNIP and GRP78 levels for diagnosing GDM. The influencing factors of GDM occurrence was analyzed. Results: The levels of serum TXNIP, GRP78, FINS, and FBG, the HOMA-IR value, and the proportion of family history of diabetes of the women in the study group were significantly higher than those of the women in the control group (P<0.05). The serum TXNIP and GRP78 levels of the women in the study group were positively correlated with their HOMA-IR value (r=0.557, 0.584, P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of serum TXNIP and GRP78 levels for diagnosing GDM were 0.883 and 0.892, and the cut-off values of which were 48.67 pg/mL and 174.22 pg/mL, respectively, the sensitivity of which were 87.2% and 88.3%, respectively, and the specificity of which were 77.7% and 76.6%, respectively. The AUC of the combined levels of TXNIP and GRP78 for diagnosing GDM was 0.950, and the sensitivity and specificity of which were 85.1% and 91.5%. Family history of diabetes, abnormal increase of HOMA-IR value, and the levels of TXNIP and GRP78 were the risk factors affecting the occurrence of GDM (95%CI 1.697-4.214, 1.572-3.622, 1.626-3.959, 1.572-3.723, P<0.05). Conclusion: The levels of serum TXNIP and GRP78 of the pregnant women with GDM are abnormally increase, which are related to the IR value of the women. The combined levels of TXNIP and GRP78 for diagnosing GDM has high value.

To investigate the influence of serum glycocholic acid(CG) level and time of pregnancy termination of pregnant women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) on the outcomes of their perinatal infants. Methods: 112 pregnant women with ICP were selected in study group and 69 healthy pregnant women were selected in control group from July 2018 to July 2020. According to the serum CG level of the women in the study group, the women were divided into group A (63 women with low level CG of 2.7-13.5mg/L) and group B (49 women with high level CG of≥13.5mg/L). And according to the time of the pregnancy termination of the women in the study group, the women were also divided into group C (46 women with termination of pregnancy during <36 gestational weeks) and group D (466 women with termination of pregnancy during ≥36 gestational weeks). The serum CG level of all these women was detected by automatic biochemical analyzer. And the adverse outcomes of the perinatal infants were compared among these groups. The influencing factors of the adverse outcomes of the perinatal infants of the women with ICP were analyzed. Results: The levels of serum total bilirubin (TBIL) (14.79±3.36μmol/L), aspartate transaminase (AST) (65.61±4.63 U/L), alanine transaminase (ALT) (89.57±11.23 U/L), and CG (15.47±6.34 mg/L) of the women in the study group were significantly higher than those (6.37±2.83μmol/L, 15.27±2.82 U/L, 14.35±3.26 U/L, and 1.63±0.54 mg/L) of the women in the control group. The incidence of perinatal adverse outcomes of the women in group B was significantly higher than that of the women in group A, and which of the women in group C was
significantly higher than that of the women in group D (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the serum CG level ≥13.5mg/L (OR=2.16, 95%CI: 1.30-3.57) and the time of pregnancy termination <36 gestational weeks (OR=2.10, 95%CI= 1.29-3.42) of the women with ICP were the risk factors of the adverse outcomes of their perinatal infants (P<0.05). Conclusion: Abnormal high level of serum CG and the time of termination of pregnancy <36 gestational weeks of the pregnant women are closely related to the occurrence of the adverse outcomes of their perinatal infants, so it suggests that termination of pregnancy after 36 gestational weeks for the pregnant women with ICP can reduce the adverse outcomes of their perinatal infants.

 To investigate the risk factors of cesarean section caused by intrapartum fever of full-term primipara with singleton. Methods: A retrospective case-control study was used to collect the clinical data of 1073 full-term primipara with singleton and cephalic fetus who had accepted cesarean section from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019. 172 primipara with intrapartum fever or suspected intrauterine infection as the main indications of cesarean section were selected in observation group, and 901 cases with other indications of cesarean section were selected in control group. The clinical data of the primipara were compared between the two groups. The data were analyzed by univariate analysis and binary logistic regression. Results: The utilization rate of labor analgesia of the primipara in the observation group was 91.9% (158/172), which was significantly higher than that (81.8%, 737/901) of the primipara in the control group, and the modified OR was 2.410 (95%CI 1.339-4.337). The median value (25%,75%) of the neonatal weight in the observation group was [3647.0 (3343.8-3850.0) g], which was significantly higher than that [3495.0 (3250.0-3782.0) g] of the neonatal weight in the control group, and the modified OR was 1.001 (95%CI 1.000-1.001). The rate of gestational hypertension of the primipara in the observation group was 4.7%, which was significantly lower than that (10.0%) of the primipara in the control group, and the modified OR was 0.451 (95%CI 0.212-0.959). Conclusion: The risk of the cesarean section because of intrapartum fever of the primipara during labor analgesia is 2.4 times higher than that of the primipara without labor analgesia. The risk of the cesarean section because of intrapartum fever of the primipara with big fetus is higher. The gestational hypertension of the primipara is a protective factor of their cesarean section because of intrapartum fever.

To investigate the diagnostic value of blood flow parameters of uterine artery and vascularization parameters of scar site for cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) of women during the first trimester of pregnancy. Methods: 82 women with CSP during the first trimester of pregnancy (≤12 gestational weeks) who had caesarean section history from June 2018 to June 2020 were selected in group A retrospectively,114 normal pregnant who had caesarean section history during the first trimester of pregnancy were selected in group B,and 74 normal pregnant women with vaginal delivery history and without caesarean section history were selected in group C. The values of uterine artery blood flow parameters, such as pulsatility index (PI),uterine artery resistance index (RI), peak systolic velocity/end diastolic velocity (S/D), of the women in the three groups were examined by transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound. The vascularization parameters of scar site, such as vascularization index (VI),blood flow index (FI), and vascularization flow index (VFI), of the women in the three groups were examined by the three-dimensional energy Doppler ultrasound mode combined with Vocal software. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of the vascularization parameters of scar site for CSP. Results: There was significant difference in the RI value of the uterine artery blood flow parameters of the women among the three groups, and there was significant difference in the S/D value of the uterine artery blood flow parameters of the women between group A and group C. There were significant differences in the values of VI, FI, and VFI of vascularization parameters of scar site of the women between group A and group B (all P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of the VI value, the FI value, and the VFI value of the women for diagnosing CSP was 0.768, 0.795, and 0.805, respectively, and the detection critical value of which were 8.49, 20.93, and 2.27, respectively. Conclusion: The values of RI and S/D of uterine artery of the pregnant women with different delivery history during the first trimester of pregnancy are differences, and the values of VI, FI, and VFI of uterine artery examined by three-dimensional energy Doppler ultrasound for diagnosing CSP of the women have certain values. In order to improve the accuracy of diagnosing CSP during the first trimester of pregnancy, the quantitatively analysis should be done based on the critical value of the RI and S/D values of uterine artery of the pregnant women with different delivery history in clinic.

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI)refers to the decline or loss of ovarian function of the women before 40 years old, which seriously affects the physical and mental health, and the reproductive function of these women. With the liberalization of the national three child policy, the adverse impact of POI on the fertility of the women is becoming more and more serious. Early detection, early treatment and iatrogenic intervention for the women with POI are particularly important to slow down their ovarian decline. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)have the characteristics of differentiating into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and adipocytes. More and more studies have confirmed that MSCs from different tissue sources are preferentially implanted into damaged tissues, which can show strong regeneration, differentiation, and repair ability. At present, MSCs have been used to repair ovarian failure caused by chemotherapy, but there are still many unknown mysteries about MSCs. Based on the previous research results, this paper summarizes the latest research progress of MSCs from different sources to improve the ovarian function of the women with POI through diversified biochemical pathways and gene expression pathways, so as to strive the application of the means of MSCs for treating POI in clinic as soon as possible, to benefit the majority of the women with POI, and to provide the evidences for translational medicine. At the same time, it provides more novel ideas for reproductive doctors to treat POI.

With the widely application of assisted reproductive technology (ART), a lot of evidences suggest that ART increases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and pregnancy complications, such as ectopic pregnancy and miscarriage, and the increase of the incidence rate of preterm birth and low birth weight. At the same time, some pregnancy complications, such as gestational diabetes mellitus and gestational hypertension disease, of the pregnant women after ART are also significantly higher than those of the pregnant women after nature pregnancy. Complex infertility factors and ART related program of the infertile population may be responsible for these adverse pregnancy outcomes. Therefore, the population with ART is high-risk pregnant women, so more attention should be paid to the pre-pregnancy intervention and pregnancy examination of the ART population, and appropriate ART techniques should be selected according to the characteristics of infertility patients, so as to reduce the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and pregnancy complications.
