Feyz Medical Sciences Journal Feyz 1029-7855 2008-9821 2001 5 1 The preventive effect of Mannitol in Hyperstimulation syndrome Aboutaleb Saremi Mohammad Elm Mina Mottaghi History and Objectives: Considering the incremental trend for using the stimulatory drugs for ovulation and the new techniques for the treatment of infertility, therefore there is a higher incidence for the syndrome of polycystic ovaries. In this research study mannitol serum was used as a preventive agent in patients with such a syndrome referred to Sarem medical center from 1999 to 2000. Materials and Methods: The clinical trial of this study was carried out on 228 patients with polycystic ovaries. They have been treated by stimulatory agents of ovulation (Human chorionic gonadotropin and human menopausal gonadotropin) and were divided into case and control groups. The former received daily injection of mannitol serum (0.5 g/kg of body weight) and the control group received no treatment. For evaluation of the efficacy of mannitol, the parameters blood pressure, hemoglobin, hematocrit and WBC were measured and statistical t-test was used. Results: Out of the total 228, 132 patients were included in the control group and the remainder (96 patients) comprised the case group. Both group were similar regarding age, weight, blood pressure, hemoglobin, Hct and WBC before using mannitol serum. The results showed that 100% and 25% of patients in control and case groups respectively had OHSS. The systolic and diastolic blood pressures were 87±10.7 and 54±10 in control group and were 112±5.6 and 63±14 mmHg in case group respectively. The level of hemoglobin, Hct and number of WBC were 15.7±1.5, 45.3±7 and 13548±6165 in control group and were 12.6±0.7, 38.3±3.8 and 77525±1523 in case group respectively. The difference between case and control groups was significant statistically (P<0.001). Conclusion: It is concluded that the administration of mannitol serum can prevent the severe form of OHSS and can attenuate the mild and severe forms of OHSS. Therefore it is recommended to perform more intensive researches to find the beneficial effects of mannitol serum.

Materials and Methods: The clinical trial, sequential sampling and quasi-experimental strategy of this research was carried out on 45 newborns in demand-based feeding group (Control) and 40 newborns in multiple-feeding group (Case). The groups were similar regarding age, occupation, education, multiparous state, number of children, kind of pregnancy, interval between labors, father’s age, education and occupation, number of children, home area, home status, monthly income, gender, time of first feeding and birth-time weight, height and head perimeter. Birth-time weight, height and head perimeter and the same parameters at days 14 and 28 postpartum were measured and statistical t-test was used for data analysis. Results: Eight cases of the demand-based group and 14 cases from the multiple-feeding group were excluded from the study for illnesses, incomplete information, supplementary nutrition, not on time refers, inappropriate follow-up and/or mismatch of nutritional style with considered criteria. In total, the research was carried out on 63 cases (Control (n=32) and case (n=31) groups). During the first 14 days, the weight changes were 399.7±113 and 613.9±194.1 in control group and case group respectively. In other words, case group showed a 53% increase in comparison with control group (P<0.001). In addition, changes of head perimeter and height were also greater in case group, but did not reach to significant level. Conclusion: Multiple-feeding method can clearly affect the physical growth of newborns. It is recommended to perform a research study to evaluate the long-term effect of this feeding pattern on growth and other related parameters.
