Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the information and the factors that contribute to the decision to accept and choose
single embryo transfer (SET) in females and males.
Materials and methods Fifty-four females and males undergoing SET were interviewed separately using a structured questionnaire.
Results The women were significantly more satisfied with the information than the men (odds ratio 3.3), but the decision to accept
SET was nevertheless more difficult for women (OR 3.1). Only one-third of both female and males were aware of the increased
maternal risks with twin pregnancies. There was a tendency that the women who accepted SET had previous children, shorter
duration of infertility, and were younger. Cryopreservation of embryos and a good pregnancy chance were important irrespective
of gender.
Conclusion The female needs more support to choose SET. The male needs better information and further involvement in decision-making.
The females were more aware of the fetal risks, but the awareness of the increased maternal risks with twin pregnancies was
low.
The female need more support to accept and choose single embryo transfer, compared to the male and information should in some
areas be directed differently to females and males. 相似文献

Several studies indicated that trophoblast tissue synthesizes pro-opiomelanocortin-related peptides. These peptides are also present in amniotic fluid, but their origin remains unknown. The present study evaluated the presence of and the possible changes in beta-endorphin (beta-EP) in amnion and chorion during pregnancy, at parturition and in spontaneous abortion. Amnion, chorion and placental tissues were isolated and homogenized from a total of 46 pregnant women between 4th and 42 th week of pregnancy. Beta-EP was separated on a Sephadex G-75 column and measured by RIA with specific antiserum. The identity of the endogenous opioid with its corresponding reference molecule was confirmed by high performance liquid chromatography. In all tissues, the concentration of beta-EP in the first trimester was significantly higher than in the second trimester. A negative correlation between opioid levels and gestational age was observed in the first two trimesters. At delivery, the beta-EP content of all tissues was greater than in the second trimester. In tissues collected at term, in the absence of labor, beta-EP levels were very low in comparison with those collected after vaginal delivery. Low beta-EP contents were found in membranes collected from spontaneous abortion in 1st trimester. From these data one can surmise the existence of a local endogenous opioid system in fetal adnexes. This system seems sensitive to the stress of vaginal delivery and could be involved in the mechanisms leading to spontaneous abortion. 相似文献

A growing number of countries are moving to scale up interventions for prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV in maternal and child health services. Similarly, many are working to improve access to paediatric HIV treatment. This paper reviews national programme data for 2004-2005 from low- and middle-income countries to track progress in these programmes. The attainment of the UNGASS target of reducing HIV infections by 50% by 2010 necessitates that 80% of all pregnant women accessing antenatal care receive PMTCT services. In 2005, only seven of the 71 countries were on track to meet this target. However PMTCT coverage increased from 7% in 2004 (58 countries) to 11% in 2005 (71 countries). In 2005, 8% of all infants born to HIV positive mothers received antiretroviral prophylaxis for PMTCT, up from 5% in 2004, though only 4% received cotrimoxazole. 11% of HIV positive children in need received antiretroviral treatment in 2005. In 31 countries that had data, 28% of women who received an antiretroviral for PMTCT also reported receiving antiretroviral treatment for their own health. Achieving the UNGASS target is possible but will require substantial investments and commitment to strengthen maternal and child health services, the health workforce and health systems to move from pilot projects to a decentralised, integrated approach. 相似文献

Objective: To determine the relationship between antiphospholipid antibodies and pregnancy rates (PRs) and outcome among IVF patients. Design: Prospective collection of all serum samples with assays for immunoglobulin G (IgG), IgA, and IgM antibodies for anticardiolipin, antiphosphatidyl serine, antiphosphatidyl ethanolamine, antiphosphatidyl choline, antiphosphatidyl inositol, antiphosphatidyl glycerol, and anti-phosphatidic acid being done following completion of all treatment cycles. Setting: A tertiary care teaching hospital. Patient(s): Seven hundred ninety-three patients attempting to conceive through IVF. Main Outcome Measure(s): Pregnancy rates (PRs) and pregnancy loss rates relative to each of the various antiphospholipid antibodies that were measured. Result(s): There were 528 pregnancies for an overall PR of 66%. Pregnancy rates were equal among patients with positive and negative antiphospholipid antibodies for each of the 21 measured antibodies. Use of receiver operator characteristic curves and logistic regression further confirmed that there was no relationship between PRs or outcome based on antiphospholipid antibodies for any definable threshold value. Conclusion(s): Elevated antiphospholipid antibody levels are not associated with any change in PRs or pregnancy loss rates in patients attempting to conceive through IVF. 相似文献

The gynecologic and obstetric implications of the smooth muscle-relaxing, antiaggregatory prostacyclin and its endogenous antagonist, thromboxane A2, are reviewed. In addition to the vascular wall and circulating platelets, which are primary sources for prostacyclin and thromboxane A2, respectively, reproductive tissues produce great amounts of these prostanoids, evidently for the regulation of the vascular tone and/or vascular platelet interaction. Several gynecologic and obstetric disorders are characterized by abnormalities in prostacyclin and/or thromboxane A2. In primary menorrhagia the uterine release of prostacyclin is increased, and consequently menstrual blood loss can be reduced with various prostaglandin synthesis inhibitors. Prostacyclin relaxes the nonpregnant myometrium in vitro and may also do so in vivo, although intravenous infusion of prostacyclin has no effect upon the uterine contractility in nonpregnant or pregnant subjects. Patients with pelvic endometriosis may have increased levels of prostacyclin and thromboxane A2 metabolites in the peritoneal fluid. The prostacyclin/thromboxane A2 balance shifts to thromboxane A2 dominance in patients with gynecologic cancer. During pregnancy the production of prostacyclin and thromboxane A2 increases in the mother and fetoplacental tissue. Preeclampsia and other chronic placental insufficiency syndromes are accompanied by prostacyclin deficiency in the mother and in fetomaternal tissues and by an overproduction of thromboxane A2, at least in the placenta. These changes may account for the vasoconstriction and platelet hyperactivity, which are pathognomonic for hypertensive pregnancies. By directing the prostacyclin/thromboxane A2 balance to prostacyclin dominance (by dietary manipulation, administration of prostacyclin and/or its analogues, drugs with prostacyclin-stimulating and/or thromboxane A2-inhibiting action), it may be possible to prevent and/or treat hypertensive pregnancy complications in the future. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: (1) To compare the preterm delivery rates in the Bedouin versus the Jewish population. (2) To compare risk factors for preterm delivery in the two populations. (3) To compare outcomes of preterm delivery between the two groups. STUDY DESIGN: 41669 Jewish singletons births of whom 2816 delivered preterm (23-36 weeks) and 26495 Bedouin singletons in whom 2064 preterm deliveries occurred, were compared. All births took place in Soroka University Medical Center. Data were obtained from the computerized database of birth discharge records. RESULTS: The incidence of preterm delivery in Bedouin women was significantly higher than the rate in Jewish women (7.8 vs. 6.8%, P<0.01). The grand multiparity rate was higher among Bedouin women (P<0.001), as was the rate of teenage (<19 years) mothers (P<0.001). Gestational diabetes, PIH, and PROM rates were higher in the Jewish population (P<0.001, P=0.017, P<0.001, respectively). A bad obstetric history and previous perinatal mortality is more common in the Bedouin population (P<0.001 for both). In a logistic regression model including all these factors, the ethnic difference in the incidence of preterm delivery remained significant. The neonatal mortality rate was higher in the Bedouin population (P<0.001), as was the rate of congenital malformations (P<0.001). The perinatal mortality of Bedouins was nearly twice that of Jewish neonates with congenital malformations. However, no difference was found when neonates without congenital malformations were compared. Congenital malformations were found to be the strongest predictor of mortality. Ethnicity per se was no longer a predictor of mortality once congenital malformations were included in a logistic regression model, but the interaction of Bedouin ethnicity and congenital malformation was a significant predictor of mortality. CONCLUSION: The incidence of preterm delivery was significantly higher in Bedouin women than in Jewish women. A full explanation for this difference was not found. However, there were significantly higher rates of congenital malformations in the Bedouin preterm delivered infants. There was a much higher rate of neonatal mortality in the Bedouin population and this ethnic difference was fully explained by the presence of congenital anomalies. 相似文献

Little is known about the emotional demands upon women of the step-by-step procedures characteristic of involvement in an in vitro fertilization/embryo transfer (IVF-ET) program. In this study, 77 women provided their perceptions of the emotional demands of IVF-ET and explanations for failed attempts, as well as describing their coping strategies and sources of emotional support. Nominated as the two most difficult stages of IVF were the wait for a possible pregnancy after the procedure and the blood tests and injections prior to hospitalization. Women were overly optimistic with a first attempt, with 70% being moderately to highly optimistic about success. Levels of optimism, however, generally declined across attempts. About half of the women intended to stop after four attempts, and almost all would stop after six treatment cycles. Women attributed their lack of success to a wide range of factors, including the low success rate, being anxious or stressed, bad luck, or problems associated with their condition and the procedure. Asked how they coped with the program, the women reported that the major strategy was to adopt the attitude that they might be successful in the long term. Other coping strategies involved keeping busy, staying calm, and seeking the support of other IVF women and husbands. Husbands were listed as the major source of emotional support, followed by other infertile women and nurses, counselors, and doctors. Finally, the majority of women believed that although they would be less fulfilled if they did not have a child through IVF-ET, nevertheless there were alternative sources of satisfaction which they would pursue. For most, continued infertility was not seen as detrimental to the quality of their marriages. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to assess fetal subcutaneous fat and lean mass areas as predictors of fetal growth restriction. STUDY DESIGN: Seventeen severe fetal growth-restricted (abdominal circumference, < 2 SD) fetuses and 20 control fetuses underwent ultrasound measurements of subcutaneous fat, lean mass, and standard biometry. Thigh subcutaneous fat and lean mass were measured on enlarged ultrasound axial images (subcutaneous fat area = total cross sectional area - lean mass area [bone + muscle areas]). Subcutaneous fat and lean mass areas were expressed as a percentage of the total cross-sectional area and were normalized to femur length and head circumference. Measurements were modeled as a function of fetal growth-restriction status and week of gestation with multiple linear regression. RESULTS: Fetal growth-restriction fetuses showed reductions in fat and lean mass (in standard biometry) and showed a disproportionate reduction in fat mass compared with lean mass. These were all associated significantly with fetal growth restriction. CONCLUSION: Fetal growth-restricted fetuses have reduced subcutaneous fat and lean mass compared with control fetuses; a further reduction occurs in subcutaneous fat concentration compared with the reduction in lean mass when fat is normalized for body size, with either head circumference or femur length. Fat-to-bone proportions may be useful in distinguishing the small for gestational age fetus who is truly fetal growth restriction from the constitutionally small fetus. 相似文献
