Objective: Progestin was recently used as an alternative of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog for preventing premature luteinizing (LH) surge with the aid vitrification techniques, however, limited data were available about potential progestin in poor responders undergoing vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment. We performed a randomized parallel controlled trial to investigate difference and GnRH antagonist responders. Methods: A total 340 who...

Objective. This study is to investigate the effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) transplantation on acute liver failure (ALF). Methods. BMSCs were separated from rat marrow, cultured, and identified by flow cytometry. Rat model with ALF was established injecting D-galactosamine lipopolysaccharide. Rats randomly divided into control group BMSC group. The serum levels alanine aminotransferase (ALT) aspartate (AST) measured at 24 h, 120 168 h after transplantation. Apoptosis...
