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.
The paper is concerned with the state and proof of the solvability theorem of unique state vector solution (SVS) of triple nonlinear hyperbolic boundary value problem (TNLHBVP), via utilizing the Galerkin method (GAM) with the Aubin theorem (AUTH), when the boundary control vector (BCV) is known. Solvability theorem of a boundary optimal control vector (BOCV) with equality and inequality state vector constraints (EINESVC) is proved. We studied the solvability theorem of a unique solution for the adjoint triple boundary value problem (ATHBVP) associated with TNLHBVP. The directional derivation (DRD) of the "Hamiltonian"(DRDH) is deduced. Finally, the necessary theorem (necessary conditions "NCOs") and the sufficient theorem (sufficient co

Show MoreBackground: The surface properties of the titanium alloy plays a significant role in the bond of the dental implant with living bone and modification of the implant surface could enhance osseointegration. This study was aimed to investigate the effect of different durations of heat treatment on the surface properties of titanium alloy for dental implants. Materials and methods: Twenty disks of (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy were prepared. The sample was divided into four test groups to study the effect of different duration of heat treatment to the surface topography; surface chemistry, titanium oxide layer thickness, blood contact angle, & blood drop diameter of titanium alloy samples were investigated to evaluate the effect of different durations of

Orbital cysts presented as a primary lesion in our study which is rare to have such lesion without involvement of other organs (3). Humans represent the intermediate host where the commonly affected organ are liver and the lung (10-15%) (4).

A constant DC voltage gradient of 1 V/cm was applied for all these tests with duration of 7 days remediation process for each test. Different purging solutions and addition configurations, i.e. injection wells, were investigated experimentally to enhance the removal of lead from Iraqi soil during electro-kinetic remediation process. The experimental results showed that the overall removal efficiency of lead for tests conducted with distilled water, 0.1 M acetic acid, 0.2 M EDTA and 1 M ammonium citrate as the purging solutions were equal to 18 %, 37 %, 42 %, and 29 %, respectively.

Fractional calculus has paid much attention in recent years, because it plays an essential role in many fields of science and engineering, where the study of stability theory of fractional differential equations emerges to be very important. In this paper, the stability of fractional order ordinary differential equations will be studied and introduced the backstepping method. The Lyapunov function is easily found by this method. This method also gives a guarantee of stable solutions for the fractional order differential equations. Furthermore it gives asymptotically stable.
