Effect of prophylactic use of cefazolin in caesarean section on postoperative infection: A meta-analysis.

Caesarean section rate is increasing and postoperative wound infection is a major health-threatening complication after caesarean section (CS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of Cefazolin at different time for post-caesarean delivery. The aim of this study was to compare the use of Cefazolin at different times on infections after CS. The time of antibiotic use in CS can be divided into two groups: before skin incision (SI) and after cord clamping (CC). In this study, 268 relevant articles were found in the database, and finally, 10 articles were analysed. This study included a total of 5256 cases of caesarean section. The data on wound infections, endometritis, urinary tract infections and fever were analysed. Perform an analysis of the data using RevMan 5.3. The results showed that cefazolin before SI reduced wound infection compared to after CC (odds ratio [OR], 0.51; 95% CI: 0.37-0.69; p < 0.0001). Cefazolin prophylactically used before SI reduce endometritis after CS compared to after CC (OR, 0.52; 95% CI: 0.35-0.77; p = 0.001). There was no significant difference in urinary tract infections after CS between cefazolin prophylactically used before SI and after CC (OR, 0.80; 95% CI: 0.50-11.28; p = 0.35). There was no significant difference in fever after CS between the prophylactic use of cefazolin before SI and after CC (OR, 0.60; 95% CI: 0.26-11.43; p = 0.225). Cefazolin before SI reduces wound infection and endometritis after CS.

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection Improves Normal Fertilization Rate and Clinical Pregnancy Rate in Male Infertility.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) on the normal fertilization rate of oocytes and the clinical pregnancy rate of cycles in male infertility. Eighty cases of male infertility patients attending our hospital from March 2020 to March 2021 were selected and divided into observation group and control group using the random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. The control group was treated with in vitro fertilization (IVF), and the observation group was treated with ICSI. The normal fertilization rate of oocytes and the clinical pregnancy rate of the cycle were compared between the two groups, and the adverse pregnancy outcome and obstetric and perinatal complications were compared between the two groups The rate of normal fertilization and clinical pregnancy in the cycle was higher in the observation group (P < 0.05). The differences were not statistically significant (P > 0.05) when comparing adverse pregnancy outcomes between the two groups. The difference was not statistically significant (P > 0.05) when comparing obstetrics (5.41%, 10.34%) and perinatal complications (8.33%, 14.81%) between the two groups. ICSI in male infertility is significantly effective in improving the rate of normal oocyte fertilization and the clinical pregnancy rate of the cycle. It also has a low impact on adverse pregnancy outcomes and obstetric and perinatal complications and has a high safety profile.
