ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of pelvic motion in late pregnancy on the outcome of first trimester delivery.Methods:A total of 127 first-borns admitted to the midwifical clinic of Nanjing Maternal and Child Health Hospital from November 1, 2019 to March 10, 2020 were selected as the research objects, and they were divided into the walking group and the pelvic motion group according to the random number table method. In the end, 62 cases were included in the walking group and 65 cases in the pelvic motion group. The walking group did brisk walking in the third trimester. In the pelvic motion group, the motion in the third trimester consisted of the combined pelvic motion involving the two planes of the upright spine and the horizontal spine, and multiple peripelvic joints. The changes of fertility, birth canal and fetus before and after exercise were observed, and the outcomes of childbirth were compared between the two groups.Results:Indicators reflecting productivity: persistence time of "air bike" on the day before delivery was (27.12±7.73) seconds in the pelvic motion group and (20.56±6.60) seconds in the walking group, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 5.12, P<0.01). The time of contractions after exercise before delivery was (269.38±123.70) seconds in the pelvic motion group and (591.29±201.82) seconds in the walking group, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 10.89, P<0.01). The indicators reflecting the situation of the maternal birth canal were as follows: "sitting forward flexion level", pelvic motion group was (33.64±5.91) cm, walking group was (29.50±5.28) cm, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 4.15, P<0.01). The cervical score during regular contractions was 8.01±1.69 in the pelvic motion group and 7.30±1.40 in the walking group, the difference was statistically significant( t value was 2.56, P<0.05). At the beginning of regular contractions, the proportion of fetal "occipital position" was 93.85% (61/65) in the pelvic motion group and 72.58%(45/62) in the walking group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 10.41, P<0.01). The "no pain rate after exercise the day before delivery" was 72.31% (47/65) in the pelvic motion group and 29.03% (18/62) in the walking group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 25.30, P<0.01). Time of the first labor was (395.84±165.24) min in the pelvic motion group and (574.35±152.23) min in the walking group, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 6.32, P<0.01). The second stage of labor was (25.98±9.88) min in the pelvic motion group and (33.62±13.94) min in the walking group, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 3.57, P<0.01). Conclusions:Pelvic motion in middle and late pregnancy can affect labor force, birth canal, fetus and other delivery factors, reduce movement pain and shorten the time of labor.
ABSTRACT
Objective To detect the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) gene in peripheral blood of patients with oral paraquat (PQ) poisoning and evaluate its predictive value for their prognosis.Methods Thirty-seven cases of oral PQ poisoning admitted to Linyi People's Hospital from January 2013 to June 2014 were enrolled,and they were divided into survival group (26 cases) and death group (11 cases) according to the survival sitnation in 28 days after poisoning;a healthy control group included 10 healthy people selected in the same period.The peripheral blood 3 mL was collected from each PQ patient on the 1st and 3rd day after admission,and in the healthy control group,3 mL peripheral venous blood was obtained under fast on the day for physical examination.The MMP-9 gene expression of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) methods;the serum MMP-9 concentration was determined by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA);the serum PQ level was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC),and the amount of poison orally taken was recorded.The correlations between PQ amount orally taken,serum PQ level and MMP-9 expression were analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis.A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of peripheral blood MMP-9 level for the 28-day prognosis of PQ poisoning patients.Results After admission the 1 day serum PQ level was (2.60 ± 1.29) mg/L,and the amount of poison taken was 50.0 (7.5,60.0) mL in the 37 patients with oral PQ poisoning.The MMP-9 gene expression level in PBMCs and serum MMP-9 protein level of both PQ poisoning groups were significantly higher than those of healthy control group,and the levels were gradually increased with the extension of poisoning time;the degrees of elevation in death group were more significant [the PBMCs' MMP-9 gene expression (A value):2.84± 1.16 vs.0.95 ± 0.23 on the 1st poisoning day,4.22± 1.75 vs.1.29 ±0.30 on the 3rd poisoning day;serum MMP-9 concentration (μg/L):2791.48± 1 230.88 vs.807.81±279.86 on the 1st poisoning day,4384.21 ± 1 781.97 vs.1 131.14±291.76 on the 3rd poisoning day,all P ＜ 0.05].Correlation analysis showed:there were significant positive correlations of oral PQ amount,serum PQ concentration to the MMP-9 gene expression in PBMCs and serum MMP-9 protein concentration in patients with oral PQ poisoning (all P =0.000).ROC curve analysis showed:the MMP-9 gene expression in PBMCs on the 1st day and the serum MMP-9 content on the 3rd day after admission had predictive value for 28-day prognosis in patients with oral PQ poisoning,and the ROC areas under the curve (AUC) was 0.820 and 0.776 respectively.When the cutoff value of MMP-9 gene expression level on the 1st day after admission was 0.90,the predictive sensitivity and specificity were 80.00％ and 63.64％ respectively;when the cutoff value of serum MMP-9 protein content on the 3rd day after admission was 904.36 μg/L,the predictive sensitivity and specificity were 80.00％ and 72.73％ respectively.Conclusion Oral PQ poisoning can lead to the MMP-9 gene expression in PBMCs and elevation of serum MMP-9 protein level in the body,and the MMP-9 gene expression has predictive value for the prognosis of patients with oral PQ poisoning.
ABSTRACT
To study the clinical practice of procalcitonin and hypersensitive c-reactive protein test in neonatal infection. Two hundred cases of our hospital treatment confirmed infection early newborn children were selected from February 2014 to March 2015. According to the condition, the children were divided into four groups as follows: severe infection group, local infection group, non-infection group and healthy newborns group. At the same time, the new healthy newborns were chosen as control group. The levels of serum procalcitonin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein were detected in all children and the levels in severe infection group children before and after treatment were also quantitatively detected and the test results were analyzed. There was significant difference in procalcitonin among the four groups [pS<0.05]. The positive rate of the high-sensitivity C-reactive protein in local infection group has no significant difference compared with the non-infection group [p>0.05]. But there was significant difference between the local infection group and healthy newborn group. As for the severe infection group, both the levels of procalcitonin and positive rate of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein had significant difference compared with the other groups. The detection of procalcitonin and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein could contribute to the diagnose of the early infection neonatal children and has important values in diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases in the newborns
ABSTRACT
Neonatal lactose intolerance syndrome is a series of digestive system symptoms caused by the lack of lactase, and could not fully digest the lactose in breast milk or cow milk. Lactose is one of the disaccharides mainly existed in mammalian milk. Lactose content in breast milk is 7.2g/100ml, cow milk is 4.7g/100ml. Dairy products are the main energy sources for the newborn, and lactose provides 20% energy for infants. During the growth of the newborn, lactose not only play an significant role in energy supply, but also involve in the development of the brain growing. This study mainly studied the lactose development features, the reasons for lactose intolerance, and the measures to treat lactose deficiency

This study was to research the incidence of infants with rotavirus enteritis combined with lactose intolerance and the clinical effect of low lactose milk powder for infantile rotavirus enteritis with lactose intolerance. The control group were 126 cases of infants with diarrhea randomly collected from our hospital at the same period, which their rotavirus detection was negative. The observation group was 185 cases of infants with rotavirus, which was tested to be positive. Through the urine galactose determination, 62 cases of the control group were positive and 124 cases of the observation group were positive. Then 124 cases of infants with rotavirus combined with lactose intolerance were randomly divided into two groups. 60 cases in the control group were given rehydration, correction of acidosis, oral smecta, Intestinal probiotics and other conventional treatment, then continued to the original feeding method. While, 64 cases in the treatment group, on the basis of routine treatment, applied the low lactose milk feeding. To observe the total effective rate for the two groups. The incidence of lactose intolerance in children with rotavirus enteritis [67.03%] was significantly higher than that of children with diarrhea [49.2%], which was tested to be negative. And the difference was statistically significant [p<0.5]. In the aspect of reducing the frequency of diarrhea, and diarrhea stool forming time, the treatment group has the obvious superiority. The total effective rate was 95.4% for treatment group, which was higher than that in the control group [76.7%], the difference was statistically significant [P<0.05]
Conclusion: Infants with rotavirus enteritis was easier to merge with lactose intolerance. The low lactose milk powder could improve the therapeutic effectively and could reduce the duration of disease, and restored to normal diet for 2 weeks feeding time

Objective: To study relationship between coronary heart disease (CHD) and dyslipidemia. Methods: A total of 302 CHD patients diagnosed by coronary angiography were enrolled as CHD group, and 218 healthy subjects without cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases by health examination were regard as healthy control group. Relative data were collected and levels of blood triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) were measured and compared between two groups. Results: Compared with healthy control group, there were significant increase in levels of blood TC [(4.03±0.97) mmol/L vs. (4.62±1.06) mmol/L] and LDL-C[(2.51±0.86) mmol/L vs. (3.76±1.07) mmol/L] in CHD group, P<0.01 both. Multiple factor Logistic regression analysis indicated that elevated LDL-C level was an independent risk factor for occurrence of CHD (OR=2.608, 95%CI = 1.268-5.366, P=0.009). Conclusions: The results show that levels of TC and LDL-C in patients with coronary heart disease are significantly higher than those of healthy control group. Elevated LDL level may be an independent risk factor for occurrence of coronary heart disease.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the CT features of nasal bone foramen and nasal bone fracture,and investigate the differential key points of them.Methods visual observation was performed for 30 selected skull specimens of adults(60 nasal bones)(specimens group),then CT imaging was obtained for them with volume redering(VR)reconstruction(imaging group).The frequency of the nasal bone foramens,their size,shape and location were statistical analysed.Ferthermore,CT features of nasal bone foramen and nasal bone fracture were analyzed in 30 patients who were suspected having nasal bone fractures by clinicians.Results Forty foramen shape nasal bone foramens were found in observation group,while 37 were obtained in imaging group.For patients,19 cases were diagnosed as single fracture of nasal bone by non-spiral axial high-resolution CT images.When using both axial and multi-plane reformation(MPR)and VR images,8 of 19 cases were diagnosed as single fracture,5 were multiple fractures,4 were normal nasal bone foramen,and 2 were normal variation.The other 11 cases that were diagnosed as multiple fractures by non-spiral axial HRCT images were demonstrated as 6 cases multiple fractures and 5 single fracture by combining axial images with MPR and VR images.The frequencies of foramen shape nasal bone foramen in specimens group and imaging group were 66.7% and 61.7%,respectively,and there were no significant differences between them(χ2=1.33,P＞0.05).Conclusion The nasal bone foramen is the normal anatomy,and to recognize the imaging findings of it can improve the diagnostic accuracy of nasal bone fracture.
