This study was conducted to determine the pregnancy outcome in women with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and leukocytosis. From a total of 944 women who underwent IVF-ET, 89 (9.4%) developed OHSS, of whom 67 underwent embryo transfer. The criteria of the study were met by 53 women and underwent WBC count and haematological, hormonal and biochemical tests were performed on the day of HCG administration. Statistical comparison was made between women with a WBC count of >15,000 and those with a WBC count of <15,000. Patients with WBC count of >15,000 at the time of HCG administration (n = 24) had significantly increased rate of early pregnancy loss than women who had WBC count of <15,000 (n = 29). No other blood, chemical and hormonal parameters were different between the two groups. It is concluded that women with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in an IVF-ET cycle are more likely to miscarry if they have a WBC count of >15,000 on the day of HCG administration.

Background: White matter damage is closely associated with cognitive and psychiatric symptoms and is prevalent in cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD); although the pathophysiological mechanisms involved in CSVD remain elusive, inflammation plays a crucial role. We sought to investigate the relationship between systemic inflammation markers and imaging markers of CVSD, namely white matter hyperintensity (WMH) and microstructural injury.
Methods: We conducted a study involving both cross-sectional and longitudinal data from the UK Biobank Cohort.
Unveiling the potential role of the shock index in maternal sepsis: reality or fantasy?

Objective: Maternal sepsis continues to be a maternal health problem associated with 75,000 deaths per year worldwide, representing a greater burden in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Although the Shock Index (SI) has been widely studied in postpartum hemorrhage and in non-obstetric populations, it has not yet been widely studied in sepsis. We aimed to identify the relationship between Shock Index and suspected sepsis in pregnant and postpartum patients to explore the use of Shock index in the context of maternal sepsis and its relationship with sepsis-related outcomes.

Waste milk (WM) is commonly used in calf feeding to reduce rearing costs; however, its effects on the innate immune response remain unexplored. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of WM on the innate immune response and inflammatory profile of pre-weaned dairy calves. Thirty male Holstein calves were assigned to receive pasteurized waste milk (PWM), saleable milk (SM), and WM (n = 10 in each group).

Leukemia is a prevalent cancer that severely affects children, and standard chemotherapy often leads to severe gastrointestinal symptoms and neutropenia. This study aimed to discover alternative treatments to prevent neutropenia in pediatric leukemia patients and minimize chemotherapy-related complications. This randomized, placebo-controlled trial was conducted on 52 children between the ages of 3 and 18 years who were suffering from acute leukemia and undergoing chemotherapy.
