Background: Ovulation induction by human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG) results in temporal luteal phase defect. Luteal support therapies are required to support embryo implantation in stimulated cycle especially in luteal phase defect infertile women.
Objective: The objective of the present study was to investigate the clinical significance of progesterone, aspirin and HCG on human embryo implantation in women with luteal phase defect following ICSI and embryo transfer (ET).
Patients and Methods: The female patients were divided into six groups depending on the type of the luteal support protocols (LSP). Group 1 (No= 54), received 10 mg oral progesterone (P), group 2 (No= 35) received P plus HCG, group 3 (No= 59) received P plus HCG plus oral aspirin, group 4 (No= 47) received vaginal P administered 24 hours before embryo transfer plus oral aspirin, group 5 (No= 40) received vaginal P administered 12 hours after embryo transfer plus oral aspirin and group 6 (No= 46) received intramuscular P plus oral aspirin. The LSP were continued for at least 12 weeks, when the BHCG test was positive, (tested two weeks after embryo transfer).
Results: Statistical analysis of the clinical data showed no significant differences between the LSP in regard to patient's age, body mass index (B/M2), basal FSH/LH ratio and estradiol concentration at the day of HCG injection. The ICSI rate, percentages of embryos developed in vitro, and the numbers of the transferable quality embryos were similar in all groups (P>0.05). The pregnancy rate was significantly higher (P < 0.05), in group 4 compared to other groups (38.66% versus 24.51%(G 1), 22.53% (G 2), 28.66% (G 3), 25% (G 5), 21.60% (G 6). The percentages of viable fetal sac development per patient were 31.49 (17/54), in G 1, 42.86 (15/35), in G 2, 49.16 (29/59), in G 3, 59.58 (28/47), in G 4, 32.50 (13/40), in G 5, and 34.79 (16/46), G 6. The percent of viable gestation sac was significantly higher in group 4 compared to other groups (P < 0.05).
Concl u s i o n s : The administration of 400 mg /day vaginal progesterone 24 hours before ET and 100 mg/day aspirin five days after ET results in significant improvements in pregnancy and embryo implantation rates and development of viable fetuses in luteal phase defect infertile women undergoing ICSI-ET.

Researchers have increased interest in recent years in determining the optimum sample size to obtain sufficient accuracy and estimation and to obtain high-precision parameters in order to evaluate a large number of tests in the field of diagnosis at the same time. In this research, two methods were used to determine the optimum sample size to estimate the parameters of high-dimensional data. These methods are the Bennett inequality method and the regression method. The nonlinear logistic regression model is estimated by the size of each sampling method in high-dimensional data using artificial intelligence, which is the method of artificial neural network (ANN) as it gives a high-precision estimate commensurate with the dat

Background: five clinical phases were described in patients with chronic (HBV) infection: HBeAg- positive HBV infection, HBeAg- positive chronic HB, HBeAg negative HBV infection, HBeAg-negative CHB and occult HBV infection.
Aim: This study aimed to determine the incidence of the unclassified phase (gray zone) in chronic hepatitis B patients and its significant in the clinical practice.
Patients and methods: The study was conducted retrospectively on 109 patients' who have HBsAg positive for more than 6 months. The data recorded include; HbeAg and anti-HBe Ab, ultrasound of the abdomen, HBV DNA load and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), accordingly; we classify the patients

cases and 862,000 deaths in 2018. Depending on the stage, upfront surgery is the main form of treatment,
followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Many drugs were approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
for the treatment of CRC, one of which is Capecitabine. During cancer treatment, patient-reported symptoms
and quality of life parameters can provide additional information to evaluate and compare the efficacy and
toxicity of the treatments. Despite the importance of this issue, there is no published data that evaluates this
vital parameter in Iraqi patients receiving anti-cancer drugs, in general,
