摘要
Objective:The objective of this study was to investigate the clinical value of the endometrial microbiota test(EMT)combined with personalized treatment in patients with repeated implantation failure(RIF).Methods:From March 2019 to August 2022,the clinical data of patients with RIF at the Reproductive Medicine Research Center of the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 356 patients underwent the EMT using 16S rRNA sequencing and were included in the EMT group.The SPSS statistical software propensity score was set at 1:1 to match the age,anti-Müllerian hormone(AMH),antral follicle count(AFC),years of infertility,and body mass index(BMI)of the women who had not undergone the EMT;subsequently,354 patients were classified in the non-EMT group.We compared the clinical characteristics of the two groups and analyzed the clinical pregnancy outcomes after personalized treatment.Results:The clinical pregnancy rate(CPR)of the EMT group was significantly higher than that of the non-EMT group(47.81%vs.13.38%,P<0.05).Among 356 patients who underwent the EMT,55 patients(15.45%)in group A with normal endometrial microbiota composition did not test positive for the pathogenic bacteria causing chronic endometritis,34 patients(9.55%)in group B with abnormal endometrial microbiota composition did not test positive for the pathogenic bacteria causing chronic endometritis,35 patients(9.83%)in group C with normal endometrial microbiota composition tested positive for the pathogenic bacteria causing chronic endometritis,and 232 patients(65.17%)in group D with abnormal endometrial microbiota composition tested positive for the pathogenic bacteria causing chronic endometritis.After administration of probiotics or antibiotic plus probiotics treatment,the pregnancy rates of groups C and D were higher than those of group A(44.00%vs.20.00%and 55.03%vs.20.00%,respectively;bothP<0.05).Conclusion:The EMT combined with personalized treatment in patients with RIF has solid clinical value as a new treatment strategy.
