Objectives: Vaccine hesitancy persists as a significant global health concern, especially during public health crises. This study aimed to explore factors influencing vaccination acceptance during a major public health crisis and establish a model of influencing factors.
Design: A cross-sectional study.
Objectives: To assess the effectiveness, safety, and acceptability of postplacental insertion of GyneFix postpartum intrauterine device (PPIUD) in women undergoing cesarean section (C-section).
Study Design: We conducted a prospective cohort study at 14 hospitals in four eastern coastal provinces of China between September 2017 and November 2020. A total of 470 women who underwent C-section and consented to the postplacental insertion of GyneFix PPIUD were enrolled, and 400 completed the 12-month follow-up.
Objectives: The objective was to examine care willingness and demand of residents under 60 years of age after retirement.
Setting: The staged cluster sampling method was used between August and October 2018 in Dujiangyan, Sichuan Province, China.
Participants: 2282 participants under 60 years of age were surveyed in 2018 by the staged cluster sampling method in China.
Background: Rural-to-urban migrant women in Shanghai have poor reproductive health; the incidence of postpartum unintended pregnancy and contraceptive practices has not been adequately studied in this population.
Study Design: This retrospective study examined the incidence of postpartum unintended pregnancy and associated factors among migrant women and included a medical records reviews, telephone interviews and in-depth face-to-face interviews.
Results: The incidence of unintended pregnancy during the first and second years postpartum was 12.
Background: Mifepristone combined with misoprostol for second-trimester abortion (MM) and intra-amniotic injection of ethacridine lactate (EL; Rivanol®) are the common methods for termination of second-trimester pregnancy in China. The systematic review of relevant literature was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and safety on termination of second-trimester pregnancy using MM, introduced in 1988 in China, versus the Chinese routinely used method since 1970 -- EL. The review was conducted to evaluate mifepristone combined with the misoprostol versus intra-amniotic injection of ethacridine lactate in China for termination of second-trimester pregnancy with respect to efficacy, side effects, complications and so on.

Objectives: Medical regimens using mifepristone in combination with prostaglandins have been widely available for women undergoing termination of pregnancy (TOP) at 10-16 weeks' gestation in China. We undertook a systematic review to compare different regimens of mifepristone with prostaglandins for TOP at 10-16 weeks' gestation.
Methods: We searched multiple electronic databases for English and Chinese language reports (1990-2007) including MEDLINE, the Cochrane Library and the Chinese Biomedical Literature Database.

Objective: To study the mechanism of hypoxia inducing factor-1α (HIF-1α) pathway in establishment of hypoxia inducing low endometrial receptivity.
Methods: RL95-2 cell lines, the ideal model of study ER, were cultured in hypoxia condition induced by CoCl2, and the expression of mRNA and protein of HIF-1α and tumor necrosis factor like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) were measured by reverse transcription-PCR and western blot. The apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry.
To evaluate and compare the contraceptive efficacy, bleeding pattern, side effects and other positive effects of a combined oral contraceptive (COC) containing drospirenone (DRSP) [Yasmin] with those of a COC containing desogestrel (DSG) in healthy Chinese women. This was a randomized, open-label, controlled, multicentre study of 768 healthy Chinese women requiring contraception. The subjects were randomized to ethinylestradiol (EE) 30 microg/DRSP 3 mg (n = 573) or EE 30 microg/ DSG 150 microg (n = 195), at a ratio of 3 : 1.

Objective: To find out whether there was any change in early infant temperament after mothers had received group psychological therapy on depression and anxiety during pregnancy period.
Methods: A total of 800 subjects meeting the inclusion criteria, without the exclusion criteria and willing to sign the informed consent were recruited randomly from Shanghai International Peace Maternity & Child Health Hospital in their l6th-20th weeks of pregnancy. They were randomized into the therapy group and the control group by the doll randomization table.
Objective: To evaluate the contraception efficacy, mode of bleeding, side effects and other positive effects of drospirenone-ethinylestradiol (Yasmin) in healthy Chinese women.
Methods: This was a multicenter, randomized, control study of 768 healthy Chinese women who consulted about contraception. The subjects were randomized into Yasmin group (30 microg ethinylestradiol plus 3 mg drospirenone, 573 cases) or desogestrel group (30 microg ethinylestradiol plus 150 microg desogestrel, 195 cases) with the ratio of 3:1.
Levonorgestrel (1.5 mg) is commonly used for emergency contraception to prevent an unwanted pregnancy after an unprotected intercourse. We found that postovulatory administration of 1.

Objective: To study the factors related to repeated abortions among unmarried young people, and to standardize the services as informed choice counseling and post abortion, and to reduce the repeated abortion rate.
Methods: A cross-sectional survey using anonymous questionnaire was conducted among unmarried young women who requested termination of early pregnancy in 10 hospitals in Shanghai.
Results: 2343 subjects responded to the questionnaires.
Objective: To investigate the effects of ovarian stimulation on endometrial receptivity in the peri-implantation phase.
Design: Comparison of integrin beta3 and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) expression in endometrial biopsies from moderate responders and high responders with temporally matched natural cycles.
Setting: Clinical and experimental research.
Background: The study was aimed at investigating the effects of ovarian high response during controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) on implantation and pregnancy outcome in fresh IVF/ICSI cycles, and subsequent frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles.
Methods: An analysis of 1,196 cycles using a long protocol with GnRHa and rFSH was performed. A serum oestrial level (peak E(2)) was obtained on the day of hCG administration, and patients were grouped by peak E(2) percentile distribution into 3 groups.
Objective: To compare the effects of mifepristone of different doses on emergency contraception.
Methods: 3,052 healthy women with regular menstrual cycle who visited the 10 family planning institutes and hospitals in Beijing, Shanghai, Shangdong, Sichuan, Tianjin, Guangdong, and Liaoning for emergency contraception within the period of 120 hours after a single act of unprotected sex were given a single dose of 10 mg or 25 mg mifepristone randomly and double-blindly. They were asked to record the vaginal hemorrhage that would occur and not to have unprotected sex until the next menstrual onset when they were followed up.
