Objective To study the effect of systematic prenatal education on the outcome of childbirth. Methods Pregnant women (200 cases) were randomly divided into 2 groups, 100 pregnant women who were willing to attend the maternity club to accept the systematic prenatal education were set as the experimental group, while 100 pregnant women who only accepted the regular prenatal health education as the control group. The experimental group not only received regular prenatal health education, but also had classes about prenatal gymnastics training exercise, the simulant delivery process, Lamaze pain relieving delivery, various postures of 3 delivery processes, the knowledge of husband assistance, the physical and psychological change and relevant coping method during gestation and postpartum, etc. The control group only accepted the regular prenatal health education, which was watching breastfecding VCD, having classes about the basic health knowledge and the physical process of pregnant period, delivery period, and puerperal period, the breasffecding knowledge, etc. Results The cesarean section rate and the total stage of labor of the experimental group was significantly less and shorter than that of the control group(P<0.05 and P<0.01). Conclusions The systematic prenatal e-ducation can improve pregnant women's knowledge of pregnancy and parturition, improve pregnant women's confidence of natural delivery, help to regulate nerve and the function of different organs, shorten the childbirth process, and reduce the cesarean section rate.

Objective To investigate the adverse effect of different doses of high power microwave(HPM) irradiation on oxidative stress in the brain of Wistar rats in order to contribute to establishing an animal model to evaluate protective agents which will be used for protection against microwave radiation.Methods Eighty male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 16 groups according to factor analysis.The average power density was 0,10,30 and 100 mW/cm2 and the sampling time was 6 h,1,3 and 7 d .The duration of exposure was 6 minutes for each radiation group.After exposure, the rats were sacrificed at each sampling time.Colorimetric method was used to measure the content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and protein carbonyl, the activity of GSH-px, SOD and CAT.Results The content of MDA and protein carbonyl of each radiation group was increased with the radiation dose, but decreased with the sampling time prolonged.The activity of superoxide dismutast(SOD),glutathion peroxidase(GSH-px) and catalase(CAT) in each radiation group was decreased with the radiation dose increased, and with the sampling time prolonged, but increased later.Conclusion Microwave radiation can cause oxidative stress in rats brain, as shown by the oxidative damage of lipid and protein and the decrease in the activity of antioxidant enzymes.Besides, the effect also depends on the radiation dose and sampling time.

Objective To explore the protective effects of a new military functional food NB-5 on psychological stress-induced oxidative stress .Methods Rat whiskers were completely removed to induce the oxidative stress , and the concen-trations of MDA and protein carbonyl in various organs were detected to study the damage to membrane lipid and protein . Rats were fed with NB-5 for 4 weeks, and the oxidative stress was induced by whisker cutting .Biochemical marks men-tioned above were detected to explore the protective effects of NB-5.Results and Conclusion Lipid and protein peroxida-tion occurred in the brain , heart, liver, spleen and kidney after whisker removal due to emotional stress , while the catalase ( CAT) activity decreased significantly in these organs except the spleen .In this experiment model , NB-5 showed a good free radical scavenging activity to reduce the lipid and protein peroxidation among whisker -cutting rats fed with NB-5 in ad-vance.So NB-5 can serve as a good food for soldiers in case of emergency incidents .

Objective To investigate the differences in magnetic resonance imaging characteristics between perianal?fistulas of Crohn disease (P?FCD) and perianal?fistulas of non?Crohn disease (P?FNCD). Methods A retrospective analysis was made of 109 patients with perianal fistula who were confirmed by clinical examinations and surgery and had complete preoperative pelvic MRI data from sir run run shaw hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University from June 2015 to March 2017. Patients were divided into P?FCD and P?FNCD groups according to whether the patient was clinically diagnosed with Crohn disease (CD). There were 59 cases in group P?FCD and 50 cases in group P?FNCD. All patients underwent pelvic MRI plain scan and enhanced scan. the classifications of perianal fistula (St. James University Hospital classification and improved Parks classification) were evaluated. The number of branches, the number of abscesses, the number of internal opening, the height of the internal opening were measured and recorded. The incidence of proctitis and anal inflammation were recorded. Van Assche score was evaluated. Measured data between patients in the P?FCD and P?FNCD groups were compared using independent sample t test (normal distribution) or non?parametric test (skewed distribution).The quantitative data were compared using cross?sectional Pearson χ2 test. Results There were significant differences in the number of branches, the number of abscesses, the number of internal opening, the height of the internal opening, the positive rate of proctitis, the positive rate of anal canalitis, and the Van Assche score between the P?FCD group and the P?FNCD group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the modified Parks classification between the P?FCD group and the P?FNCD group (P>0.05).There was significant difference in the classification of St. James University Hospital between the P?FCD group and the P?FNCD group (P<0.05). Conclusions P?FCD is mainly composed of high complex anal fistula, which is significantly different from P?FNCD. We used St. James University Hospital classification and Van Assche score to diagnose perianal fistula in combination with clinical examinations, which was helpful for the diagnosis of P?FCD.

RANKL/RANK/OPG axis is important in bone metabolism regulation, and becomes a popular research area in bone diseases. RANKL is a critical part of RANKL/RANK/OPG axis, and widely required in bone metabolism research. However, the yield of recombinant soluble human RANKL (hRANKL) in Escherichia coli is much lower than mouse RANKL (mRANKL). In this study, by adjusting and stabilizing the pH value of LB medium at 7.5, lowering the inducing temperature to 16 ℃ and optimizing the lysis program, the yield of soluble hRANKL increased by approximately 5 to 12-fold over the non-adjusted group. Our experiment effectively enhanced soluble hRANKL expression in E. coli and might constitute a meaningful attempt to obtain soluble expression of recombinant protein in E. coli.
