Development and validation of a pregnancy prediction model based on ultrasonographic features related to endometrial receptivity.

Objective: Our aim was to identify multiple endometrial receptivity related factors by applying non-invasive, repeatable multimodal ultrasound methods. We further established a practical prediction model for pregnancy prediction.

Materials And Methods: Our study included 152 participants from Wenzhou People's Hospital, Wenzhou Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital, and the Third Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University.

Assessment of early damage of endometrium after artificial abortion by shear wave elastography.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the application of shear wave elastography (SWE) in the early damage detection through assessing the endometrial elasticity after artificial abortion.

Methods: A total of nulliparous women (20-30 years) who received ultrasonography in our hospital were recruited between January 2017 and December 2017. These women were divided into normal control group (NC; n = 65), after once artificial abortion group (AOAA; n = 68), after twice artificial abortion group (ATAA; n = 61), and after three times or more (range, 3-6) artificial abortion group (ATTMAA; n = 60).

Application of ultrasound multimodal score in the assessment of endometrial receptivity in patients with artificial abortion.

Background: This study aimed to evaluate the value and feasibility of ultrasound multimodal score in the evaluation of endometrial receptivity in patients with artificial abortion (AA).

Methods: Sixty-eight patients with AA (AA group) and 70 women of the childbearing age without any history of abortion (control group) were recruited between January 2018 and December 2018. All subjects received the examination of endometrium in the middle luteum phase (7-9 days after ovulation) with two-dimensional gray-scale ultrasound, two-dimensional color Doppler ultrasound, and three-dimensional ultrasound, and the quantitative scores were obtained and compared between two groups.

Evaluation of ovarian function using three dimensional ultrasound in perimenopausal women.

To evaluate the feasibility and clinical value of three-dimensional ultrasound in evaluating ovarian function in perimenopausal women. In this prospective cohort study, 102 patients with clinically suspected perimenopause and 90 patients with menopause were enrolled. These patients were classified into three groups according to the level of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and estradiol (E2): menopause group, perimenopause group, and normal group.

Clinicopathologic and Ultrasound Variables Associated With a Heavy Axillary Nodal Tumor Burden in Invasive Breast Carcinoma.

Objectives: To identify clinicopathologic and ultrasound (US) variables that were associated with a heavy nodal tumor burden, which was defined as 3 or more lymph nodes involved with metastasis to the axilla after invasive breast carcinoma.

Methods: With ethical approval, 621 patients with a pathologic diagnosis of invasive breast carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed for clinical, pathologic, and US data. Pathologic findings were ascertained by the final paraffin pathologic analysis.
