Methods： The samples were selected from 66 suffers who underwent in vitro fertilization（IVF）or intracytoplasmic sperm injection（ICSl）. Eeach patients＇ perifollicular blood flow（diameter ≥ 12mm ）was estimated on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin（HCG）administration. Results：Among 66 cycles, 26（39.4%） cycles resulted in pregnancy, perifollicular blood flow resistance index（Rl）, peak systolic velocity/end diastasis velocity（S/D） of non-pregnant group was significantly higher than that of the pregnant group （P 〈 0.004）. When RI 〈 0.49, the pregnancy rates, fecundation rates, fertilization rates, metaphase numbers for the of second meiosis oocytes increased evidently （P 〈 0.05）, but there were no statistical difference in gonadotropin dosage, cycle frequency, infertility years, ages, estradiol（E2）on the day of HCG administration, numbers of oocyet retrieved and high-quality embryo rates （P 〉 0.05 ）. There were no statistical difference between non-pregnant group and pregnant group in S and D （P 〉 0.05 ）. There was no correlation between periFollicular blood flow RI and follicular diameter by linear regression analysis. Conclusion：Our study shows that perifollicular blood flow RI and S/D are effective indices of predicting the pregnancy outcome of IVF-ET.展开更多

Materials and Methods: 25 patients hospitalized for eye injury and elevated IOP were evaluated 24 months after the trauma. All injured and fellow eyes underwent IOP measure, visual field (HFAII, Central 30/2SITA), pulsatile ocular blood flow analysis (POBF, OBF Labs UK), CDI examination (PSV, EDV, and RI) of Ophthalmic Artery, Central Retinal Artery, Short Posterior Ciliary Arteries. Results: IOP was significantly higher in injured eyes (15.1 vs 13.0±2.7mmHg) (P= 0,01), but only 2 eyes (8.8%) were under medical treatment POBF values were significantly lower in injured eyes: 11,25 μl/s in traumatised eyes and 15,40 μl/s in fellow eyes (P = 0.002). Resistivity Index (RI) of all investigated retrobulbar vessels was very significantly higher in injured eyes than in fellow eyes (P= 0.0001). There is no significant correlation between IOP and ocular blood flow disturbances.展开更多

However, the definitive hemodynamic changes that occur in leukoaraiosis are not clear, and there are many controversies. This study aimed to investigate hemodynamic changes in symptomatic leukoaraiosis using transcranial Doppler ultrasonography and the breath-holding test in a Chinese Han population, from northern China. A total of 203 patients who were diagnosed with ischemic stroke or clinical chronic progressive ischemic symptoms were enrolled in this study, including 97 males and 106 females, with an age range of 43-93 years. The severity of leukoaraiosis was evaluated according to the Fazekas grading scale, and patients were divided into four groups accordingly. Grade 0 was no leukoaraiosis, and grades I, II, and III were mild, moderate, and severe leukoaraiosis, respectively, with 44, 79, 44, and 36 cases in each group. Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography and the breath-holding test were performed. The mean blood flow velocity of the bilateral middle cerebral artery was measured and the breath-holding index was calculated. The breath holding index was correlated with leukoaraiosis severity and cognitive impairment. Patients with a low breath holding index presented poor performance in the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and executive function tests. That is, the lower the breath holding index, the lower the scores for the MoCA and the higher for the trail-making test Parts A and B. These results indicate that the breath-holding index is a useful parameter for the evaluation of cerebrovascular reserve impairment in patients with leukoaraiosis. In addition, the breath-holding index can reflect cognitive dysfunction, providing a new insight into the pathophysiology of leukoaraiosis. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Fifth Peoples Hospital of Shenyang, China (approval No. 20160301) and registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (registration number: ChiCTR1800014421).展开更多
