RESUMEN
Aims: Gout is a form of inflammatory arthritis characterized by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals. An important risk factor for gout is hyperuricemia. The relationship between SLC22A12 gene variants and the susceptibility to hyperuricemia has been reported, but these findings have been inconsistent. Thus, we aimed to assess the relationship between SLC22A12 gene variants and hyperuricemia susceptibility through a meta-analysis. Methods: The meta-analysis was performed by searching PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases. The relationship between hyperuricemia risk and the SLC22A12 rs11602903, rs524023, rs3825018, rs3825016, rs11231825, rs7932775, rs893006, and rs475688 variants was assessed by odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Results: In total, 20 eligible publications with 4817 cases and 6819 controls were included in the meta-analysis. Hyperuricemia risk was significantly associated with the SLC22A12 alleles rs3825018, rs7932775, and rs475688 under both the dominant and recessive models and with rs3825016 under the allelic and dominant models. Conclusions: Under the allelic model SLC22A12 rs3825018 and rs3825016 were risk factors for hyperuricemia and gout as was rs7932775 under dominant and recessive models, while the SLC22A12 rs475688 was protective against hyperuricemia under both dominant and recessive models.

Objective To evaluate the application value of the blastocysts derived from non-pronucleus (0PN) zygotes by the good quality blastocyst formation rate and the clinical outcomes of frozen-thawed blastocyst transfers. Methods The good quality blastocyst formation rate derived from 0PN zygotes was compared with that derived from2 pronucleus(2PN)zygotes in in vitro fertilization(IVF)or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles from January 2015 to December 2016. In addition, the clinical pregnancy, embryo implantation and live birth rates of frozen-thawed blastocyst transfers with blastocysts derived from 0PN and 2PN zygotes were analyzed on corresponding dates. Results (1)In IVF cycles, the high quality blastocysts formation rate of 2PN embryos was significantly higher than that of 0PN (46.64% versus 42.42%, P<0.01). In ICSI cycles, the high quality blastocysts formation rate of 2PN embryos was markedly higher than that of 0PN(41.96% versus 21.73%, P<0.01).(2)In frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles for IVF, the clinical pregnancy, implantation and live birth rates of D5 0PN blastocysts were significantly higher than those of D6 2PN(52.64% versus 46.78%, 49.91% versus 41.20%, 46.54% versus 39.56%, all P<0.05), however, the abortion and newborn abnormal rates of D5 0PN blastocysts were lower than those of D6 2PN blastocysts(17.37% versus 23.36%, 1.31% versus 4.21%, both P<0.05); the clinical pregnancy, implantation and livebirth rates of D5 2PN blastocysts were significantly higher than those of D5 0PN(59.73% versus 52.64%, 55.95% versus 49.91%, 53.03% versus 46.54%, all P<0.05), but newborn abnormal rate was a little higher than that of D5 0PN(3.90% versus 1.31%, P<0.05);the clinical pregnancy, implantation and live birth rates of D5 2PN blastocysts were significantly higher than those of D6 2PN(59.73% versus 46.78%, 55.95% versus 41.20%, 53.03% versus 39.56%, all P<0.05), and the abortion rate of D5 2PN blastocysts was lower than that of D6 2PN blastocysts(18.23% versus 23.36%, P<0.05). Conclusions Although the blastocysts derived from 0PN could be transffered, the blastocysts derived from 2PN zygotes are preferred in all cycles. In IVF cycles, the good quality blastocysts derived from 2PN or 0PN zygotes will be transferred.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of different exposure temperatures during the dilution process on the survival rate of vitrified oocytes and following development. METHODS: Patients were divided at random into two groups for different dilution temperature (20-22 °C, RT group; 37 °C,37 °C group) according to computer-generated random numbers on the day of oocyte warming. The survival and fertilization rates of vitrified oocytes as well as the implantation and clinical pregnancy rates of the resulting embryos were recorded. RESULTS: A total of 662 and 676 oocytes were warmed in the 37 °C group and RT group, respectively, and significant difference was observed in the survival rate between 37 °C group (88.37%) and RT group (79.88%) (P = 0.0000). There was significant difference between the survival rate of 37 °C group (87.27%) and RT group (75.64%) in nondonor patients (P = 0.0001). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that dilution temperature (ß = 0.079, P = 0.017) and clinical outcomes of fresh cycles (ß = 0.063, P = 0.001) were significantly and independently associated with survival rate. No significant difference was found between the 37 °C group and RT group in: fertilization rate (66.67 versus 65.37%), implantation rate (20.0 versus 19.46%), clinical pregnancy rate (37.5 versus 35.0%). CONCLUSIONS: In conclusion, the results of this study give supportive evidence of the application of 37 °C in the dilution process, especially for oocytes of poor quality. Further studies with well-controlled experimental groups are needed to optimize protocols for human oocyte vitrification.
