SimpleNLG-ZH: a Linguistic Realisation Engine for Mandarin
We introduce SimpleNLG-ZH, a realisation engine for Mandarin that follows the software design paradigm of SimpleNLG. We explain the core grammar (morphology and syntax) and the lexicon of SimpleNLG-ZH, which is very different from English and other languages for which SimpleNLG engines have been built. The system was evaluated by regenerating expressions from a body of test sentences and a corpus of human-authored expressions. Human evaluation was conducted to estimate the quality of regenerated sentences

Luteal Phase Ovarian Stimulation May Improve Oocyte Retrieval and Oocyte Quality in Poor Ovarian Responders Undergoing In Vitro Fertilization: Preliminary Results from a Single-Center Prospective Pilot Study
Introduction: Luteal phase ovarian stimulation
(LPOS) has been proven a feasible protocol for
infertile patients. High progesterone level in the
luteal phase could physiologically inhibit premature
luteinizing hormone surge, from which
poor ovarian responders (PORs) could obtain
benefits. Therefore, we aimed to compare clinical
outcomes between LPOS and follicular phase
ovarian stimulation (FPOS) protocol in PORs
undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Methods: This prospective pilot study was performed
at one tertiary center from January 2016
to October 2017. A total of 60 PORs who met
Bologna criteria and undergoing IVF were
enrolled. Thirty PORs were allocated to the
LPOS group and 30 PORs were allocated to the
FPOS group. Basic characteristics, cycle characteristics,
and pregnancy outcomes were compared
between the two groups.
Results: The length of stimulation was significantly
longer in the LPOS group than in the
FPOS group. The numbers of retrieved oocytes,
metaphase II oocytes, fertilized oocytes, and
day-3 embryos were significantly higher in the
LPOS group than in the FPOS group. Conversely,
we could not find any significant difference for clinical pregnancy rate, ongoing
pregnancy rate, abortion rate, and cancellation
rate. The multivariate analysis showed that only
LPOS (p = 0.007) was significantly associated
the possibility to retrieve three or more oocytes,
whereas basal follicle-stimulating hormone
(FSH)\8 IU/l (p = 0.103) and antral follicle
count (AFC) C 3 (p = 0.143) did not significantly
affect this event.
Conclusion: LPOS allows improved oocyte
retrieval and oocyte quality in PORs with
respect to FPOS, despite comparable pregnancy
outcomes. LPOS may be considered a feasible
option for oocytes accumulation in PORs.
