Investigation on early essential newborn care practices in 124 baby-friendly hospitals / 中华围产医学杂志

Objective:To analyze the implementation of early essential newborn care (EENC) in baby-friendly hospitals in China.Methods:This is an investigation carried out using convenience sampling method. People in charge of labor ward, obstetric wards or neonatology department of the selected hospitals, such as baby-friendly hospitals with birth facilities, primary or higher level of hospitals, or general hospitals or those specialized in obstetrics and gynecology or materal and child health care centers, were selected as the subjects of the survey. Information about EENC practices in these hospitals was collected using a self-designed questionnaire sent through WeChat from April 1 to 30, 2021. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 126 questionnaires were distributed and 124 (124 baby-friendly hospitals) were withdrawn. There were 74 hospitals in the eastern, 18 in the central and 32 in the western region. Among the 124 hospitals, tertiary hospitals, general hospitals, and maternity and child care hospitals accounted for 72.6% ( n=90), 64.5% ( n=80) and 35.5% ( n=44), respectively. There were no significant differences in the hospital type, levels, EENC coverage and training, or implementation of mainly recommended EENC practices among the hospitals in the eastern, central and western regions (all P>0.05). The implementation rate of at least one mainly recommended EENC practice was 79.0% (98/124) and there was no significant difference in the implementation rates among eastern, central and western regions [86.4% (64/74), 13/18 and 65.6% (21/32), χ2=6.60, P=0.159]. A total of 80 (64.5%) hospitals implemented 10 or more recommended EENC practices, and the implementation rates in eastern, central and western regions were 71.6% (53/74), 10/18 and 53.1% (17/32), respectively ( χ2=4.08, P=0.130). Among the 17 mainly recommended measures of EENC, in eastern, central and western hospitals, the implementation rates were 10.8% (8/74), 2/18 and 18.8% (6/32) for mother-infant skin-to-skin contact for 90 min after birth; 66.2% (49/74), 11/18 and 68.8% (22/32) for delayed umbilical cord clamping; and 25.7% (19/74), 7/18 and 21.9% (7/32) for delayed routine care following skin-to-skin contact, respectively ( χ2=6.57, 0.34 and 4.53, all P>0.05). Conclusions:There is a big gap between the implementation of EENC in most baby-friendly hospitals in eastern, central and western China and the recommendation of the World Health Organization. It is necessary to further strengthen and standardize the implementation of EENC practices in baby-friendly hospitals in our country to continuously improve the health of newborns.

Mechanism of Qiwei Guibao Granules in treatment of premature ovarian failure based on proteomics / 中国中药杂志

In this study, the underlying mechanism of Qiwei Guibao Granules(QWGB) in the treatment of premature ovarian fai-lure(POF) was explored by the proteomics technique. Firstly, the POF model was induced in mice by intragastric administration of Tripterygium wilfordii glycosides solution at 50 mg·kg~(-1) for 14 days. Ten days prior to the end of the modeling, the estrous cycle of mice was observed every day to evaluate the success of modeling. From the 1st day after modeling, the POF model mice were treated with QWGB by gavage every day and the treatment lasted four weeks. On the 2nd day after the end of the experiment, blood was collected from the eyeballs and the serum was separated by centrifugation. The ovaries and uterus were collected and the adipose tissues were carefully stripped. The organ indexes of the ovaries and uterus of each group were calculated. The serum estrogen(E_2) level of mice in each group was detected by ELISA. Protein samples were extracted from ovarian tissues of mice, and the differential proteins before and after QWGB intervention and before and after modeling were analyzed by quantitative proteomics using tandem mass tags(TMT). As revealed by the analysis of differential proteins, QWGB could regulate 26 differentially expressed proteins related to the POF model induced by T. wilfordii glycosides, including S100A4, STAR, adrenodoxin oxidoreductase, XAF1, and PBXIP1. GO enrichment results showed that the 26 differential proteins were mainly enriched in biological processes and cellular components. The results of KEGG enrichment showed that those differential proteins were involved in signaling pathways such as completion and coalescence cascades, focal adhesion, arginine biosynthesis, and terpenoid backbone biosynthesis. The complement and coalescence cascades signaling pathway was presumably the target pathway of QWGB in the treatment of POF. In this study, the proteomics technique was used to screen the differential proteins of QWGB in the treatment of POF in mice induced by T. wilfordii glycosides, and they were mainly involved in immune regulation, apoptosis regulation, complement and coagulation cascade reactions, cholesterol metabolism, and steroid hormone production, which may be the main mechanisms of QWGB in the treatment of POF.

Research progress on the regulation of mammalian energy metabolism by the circadian clock system and gut microbiota / 生理学报

The mammalian internal circadian clock system has been evolved to adapt to the diurnal changes in the internal and external environment of the organism to regulate diverse physiological functions, such as the sleep-wake cycle and feeding rhythm, thereby coordinating the rhythmic changes of energy demand and nutrition supply in each diurnal cycle. The circadian clock regulates glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, and hormones secretion in diverse tissues and organs, including the liver, skeletal muscle, pancreas, heart, and vessels. As a special "organ" of the host, the gut microbiota, together with the intestinal microenvironment (tissues, cells, and metabolites) in a co-evolutionary process, constitutes a micro-ecosystem and plays an important role in the process of nutrient digestion and absorption in the intestine of the host. In recent years, accumulating evidence indicates that the compositions, quantities, colonization, and functional activities of the gut microbiota exhibit significant circadian variations, which are closely related to the changes of various physiological functions under the regulation of host circadian clock system. In addition, several studies have shown that the gut microbiota can produce many important metabolites such as the short-chain fatty acids through the degradation of indigestive dietary fibers. A portion of gut microbiota-derived metabolites can regulate the circadian clock system and metabolism of the host. This article mainly discusses the interaction between the host circadian clock system and the gut microbiota, and highlights its influence on energy metabolism of the host, providing a novel clues and thought for the prevention and treatment of metabolic diseases.
