While the clinical implementation of the antagonist COH protocol has achieved widespread consensus, opportunities for refinement persist. Therefore, this review article focuses on the advantages and disadvantages of GnRH antagonist protocol, the selection of optimal standard doses, and the strategies for adjusting antagonist doses after the premature luteinizing hormone (LH) surge, aiming to provide more reasonable and scientific recommendations for the application of this scheme.展开更多

In order to control the membrane fouling, powdered activated carbon (PAC) was added to the UF tank for removing natural organic matter (NOM). The optimal dosage of PAC was investigated in the PAC/UF combined process. UV254 was used to measure the organic matter adsorbed by PAC. And the results show that the maximum elimination can be achieved while the dosage of PAC is 60mg/L. However, the elimination can not reduce the rate of membrane fouling which indicates that the organic matter absorbed by PAC is not the only factor leading to the fouling and the overload of PAC also contributes to the fouling. Therefore, the optimal dosage of PAC should be determined by organic matter removal as well as membrane fouling control. The ultimately optimized dosing of PAC is 20mg/L in this study, and the average removal rate of the PAC/UF process for dissolved organic carbon (DOC), UV254, and CODMn are 42.6%, 63.4%, and 45.7% respectively.展开更多

This study was designed to provide a reference for the clinical use of oral progesterone by exploring the relationship among Body Mass Index (BMI), dosage of progesterone, and serum progesterone concentration. Many gynecology and obstetrics doctors are unfamiliar with progesterone treatment. Our study is intended to help determine the dosage of oral progesterone. Methods This was a block randomized, open-label, prospective clinical trial. Eighty women undergoing cessation of menses were recruited, given oral progesterone therapy for 10 consecutive days. They were randomly assigned to four groups (four different doses of progesterone, n=20): group A 100 rag/d, group B 200 rag/d, group C 300 mg/d, and group D 400 mg/d. Results Seventy-four patients (92.5%, 74/80) completed the study. It was observed that administration of progesterone significantly increased serum progesterone concentration in the four groups (all P 〈0.001). And there is a positive correlation between the increase and dosage (rp=0.613, P 〈0.001). A further linear regression analysis found the major regression equation: when 18.5 kg/m^2 -≤BMI 〈24 kg/m^2, Y=8.4820×10^0.003x (R^2=0.425, P 〈0.001); Y was the increase of serum progesterone concentration in nmol/L, and X was the dosage of oral progesterone in mg/d. Conclusions Serum progesterone levels went up linearly as the dosage increased. The higher the patient's BMI, the higher dosage would be needed to achieve the same serum progesterone for different patients can be roughly calculated progesterone concentration. The appropriate dosage of ora in light of the results of this study.展开更多
