This study was designed to explore the effects of LMWH on clot rate （CR） and activated clotting time （ACT）, and to search for an appropriate method for bedside monitoring of anticoagulant activity of LMWH. Methods Thirty-two healthy volunteers were selected from the staff of Beijing Tongren Hospital. CR and ACT were measured with different reagents （glass beads, diatomite, kaolin and magnetic bar） on blood samples spiked with increasing concentrations of LMWH （dalteparin, 0.2-1.8 IU/ml）. Correlations between concentrations of LMWH and values of CR and ACT were analysed based on the data obtained and regression analysis was performed to establish a regression equation. Results With the increase in doses of dalteparin, CR values reduced gradually. The values of CR of four reagents （glass beads, diatomite, kaolin and magnetic bar） were 20.4-4.5 IU/min, 27.4-6.9 IU/min, 27.5-7.9 IU/min and 7.8-0.1 IU/min respectively and an linear relationship was observed between the CR values and dalteparin concentrations （P〈0.05）. The values of ACT were 173-615 seconds, 130-270 seconds, 123-226 seconds, 337-1411 seconds respectively, which showed a linear regression between the ACT values and dalteparin concentrations （P〈0.01）. Differences in slope of the regression curves of ACT were observed with all the reagents tested （glass beads 248.2 s/IU, diatomite 74.8 s/IU, kaolin 58.2 s/IU and magnetic bar 1112.2 s/IU, P〈0.01）. While the minimum concentration of dalteparin was 0.2 IU/ml, 0.4 IU/ml, 1.4 IU/ml and 0.2 IU/ml separately, the ACT values of the four coagulants （glass beads, diatomite, kaolin and magnetic bar） were beyond the normal limit and showed a noticeable increase respectively （P〈0.01）. Conclusions This study showed that there was an excellent linear relationship between the CR and ACT values and dalteparin concentrations for all the four reagents （glass beads, diatomite, kaolin and magnetic bar） in vitro. The sensitivity of different coagulation reagents to LMWH different. Choosing a suitable reagent, both CR and ACT were possible to be used as a convenient bedside test for LMWH.展开更多

The OCCCs with blood clots removed or not, were randomly grouped into A or B. The OCCCs without blood clots were group C （the control）.Results The patient＇s age, infertility duration, the average GN consumption, the average days of superovulation and an average number of harvested oocytes showed no significant difference in the 3 groups. The fertilization rate and 2PN rate in group A were the highest, which were 85.4% and 71.1%, respectively, followed by group C, which were 77.5% and 64.9%, respectively. The lowest fertilization rate and 2PN rate were in group B, 75.8% and 62.2%, respectively. Those in group A were significantly higher than those in groups B and C （P〈0.01）, while there was no significant difference between group B and group C. The implantation rates and pregnancy rates showed no significant difference in the 3 groups after transplantation, even if group A got the highest rate among the 3 groups. Conclusion Removing the blood clots in OCCC can improve the outcome of IVF-ET without increasing the cost and complexity of the operation.展开更多
