The integration of both genomics and clinical data to model disease progression is now possible, thanks to the increasing availability of molecular patients' profiles. This may lead to the definition of novel decision support tools, able to tailor therapeutic interventions on the basis of a "precise" patients' risk stratification, given their health status evolution. However, longitudinal analysis requires long-term data collection and curation, which can be time demanding, expensive and sometimes unfeasible. Here we present a clinical decision support framework that combines the simulation of disease progression from cross-sectional data with a Markov model that exploits continuous-time transition probabilities derived from Cox regression. Trajectories between patients at different disease stages are stochastically built according to a measure of patient similarity, computed with a matrix tri-factorization technique. Such trajectories are seen as realizations drawn from the stochastic process driving the tra that simulated longitudinal data represent a valuable resource to investigate disease progression of MDS patients. A significant proportion of clinically recognized pregnancies end in miscarriage. About 50 % of early pregnancy losses are due to chromosome abnormalities. In assisted reproduction technology (ART), a high proportion of top-quality embryos with morphological values are aneuploid whenever they have been evaluated in terms of genetic integrity in human preimplantation embryos either from in vitro or in vivo matured oocytes. It is plausible to think of preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) as a means of increasing pregnancy rates and minimizing the risk of fetal aneuploidy. It is believed that PGT will assume a prominent role in the field of ART, especially in a successful pregnancy, so it is embraced recently as a popular diagnostic technique. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/perhexiline-maleate.html The PGT includes three sub-categories of PGT for aneuploidies (PGT-A), PGT for single gene / monogenic disorders (PGT-M), and PGT for chromosome structural rearrangements (PGT-SR). PGT-A is used to detect aneuploidies and previously it was known as PGS. PGT-M, formerly known as PGD, is intended to reduce monogenic defects. Previously known as PGS translocation, PGT-SR is PGT to identify structural chromosomal rearrangements. Since many of the old and new definitions for PGT are still vague and confusing for some researchers in the field of reproductive genetics, the main purpose of this study is to introduce all PGT classifications as well as elaborate on different aspects of this technology to improve ART outcomes. OBJECTIVE Progesterone elevation on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration remains one of the most controversial topics in reproductive endocrinology. Factors associated with these increases have not been fully determined. The purpose of our study is to investigate factors associated with extreme progesterone elevation on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration. MATERIALS AND METHODS This retrospective observational, single-center cohort study recruited 2000 fresh in vitro fertilization (IVF) and/or intracytoplasmic sperm injection(ICSI)-embryo transfer cycles from January 2000 to December 2014 in our institution. RESULTS When cycles were divided into those with progesterone less then 1.94 ng/mL (n = 1791) and ≧1.94 ng/mL (n = 209) on the day of hCG administration, five factors were positively associated with highly elevated progesterone concentration protocol (GnRH agonist versus antagonist; odds ratio [OR = 2.786]), number of dominant follicles (OR = 1.098), total dose of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) used (OR = 1.023), elevated luteinizing hormone (LH) (OR = 1.085) and estradiol (E2; OR = 1.001) concentrations on the day of hCG administration (p less then 0.001 each). After omitting the protocol effect, the remaining factors showed limited contributions to highly elevated progesterone (ORs = 0.95-1.2). CONCLUSIONS The factor showing the greatest association with extreme progesterone elevation was use of the GnRH agonist protocol. BACKGROUND Low serum progesterone levels were strongly correlated with miscarriages in several publications and with completion of miscarriage in one paper. This study evaluated several parameters, predominantly serum progesterone, as predictors for miscarriages, their swift non-surgical completion and their complications. BASIC PROCEDURES Suspected or confirmed non-viable pregnancies with available concomitant serum progesterone measurements were retrospectively reviewed. The performance of serum progesterone, either alone or combined with other parameters, to predict viability, surgical removal and delay of non-surgical evacuation of non-viable pregnancy and complications, was analysed by logistic regression combined with Akaike and Bayesian information criteria, likelihood, receiver operated characteristic (ROC) curves, Mann-Whitney test and Fisher's exact test. MAIN FINDINGS From 151 included pregnancies, 104 (68.9 %) were non-viable with 91 completions of miscarriage without surgery. The probability of viability was correlated linearly and curvilinearly with serum progesterone (p less then 0.001). The probability of surgical removal, and the delay before non-surgical evacuation, showed a linear relationship with progesterone. No complication occurred when progesterone levels remained below 10 μg/L, while its rates were 9.5 % of non-viable pregnancies with progesterone levels between 10 and 20 μg/L and 26.7 % of cases with progesterone levels above 20 μg/L. Combined with progesterone, either "parity" or "history of miscarriage" improved the prediction of viability, "history of supra-isthmic uterine surgery" improved the prediction of surgery and "history of miscarriage" improved the prediction of delayed non-surgical evacuations. CONCLUSION Serum progesterone can probably predict the odds of miscarriages, surgical removal, delayed non-surgical evacuation and complications, with potential improvements when different predictors are combined. OBJECTIVES To compare the analgesic effect of topical lidocaine-prilocaine (LP) cream and rectal meloxicam suppository on the post-episiotomy pain in primigravidae. PATIENTS AND METHODS A randomized open-label clinical trial included primigravidae delivered vaginally with episiotomy. Eligible women were recruited and randomized to topical LP cream on the episiotomy line or rectal meloxicam suppository 15 mg. The intensity of the perineal pain was assessed using a visual analog scale (VAS) immediately, at 6, 12 h and after 5 days post-episiotomy. RESULTS One hundred ninety women were enrolled (n = 95 in each arm). No difference between both groups in the VAS scores immediately (mean ± SD 8.54 ± 1.35 vs. 8.33 ± 1.50, p = 0.419) and 6 h after episiotomy (p = 0.859). However, women in the LP arm were more likely to report lower VAS scores at 12 h and 5 days post-episiotomy (mean ± SD 1.20 ± 0.50 vs. 5.65 ± 1.65, p = 0.0001; 1.19 ± 0.49 vs. 2.64 ± 1.73, p less then 0.001; respectively). CONCLUSION Application of topical LP cream after repair of episiotomy in primigravidae seems to substantially alleviate the induced pain with subsequent less need for additional analgesia and more patients' satisfaction.
