Objective To investigate the characteristics of diet in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM) and analyze their dietary nutrition.Methods Clinical data of 978 cases of pregnant women in our hospital were collected and divided into GDM group(458 cases) and the healthy control group (520 cases).Dietary questionnaire was designed and diet characteristics were analyzed retrospectively.Daily calories and nutrients intake were calculated by software calculation.Results There were significant differences on the dietary pattern between the two groups:daily coarse grains:(35.12 ±4.87) g vs (46.35 ±5.23) g;seafood:(22.10 ± 8.45) g vs (39.34 ± 12.45) g;grilled:(6.72 ± 1.76) g vs (3.45 ±0.34) g;fried:(25.34 ± 7.84)g vs (10.56 ±4.76) g;sausage:(5.38 ± 1.81) g vs (3.45 ± 0.45) g;dessert type products intake:(50.41 ±20.76) g vs (35.86 ± 10.45) g (t =2.582,10.346,15.452,20.239,18.195,8.472,respectively,P <0.05).There was only significant difference between the two groups on calcium supplements in daily intake of nutritional supplements(GDM group 43.89%,control group 72.69%,x2 =83.660,P < 0.001),and there was no significant difference on the rests(all P > 0.05).Vitamin A,B1,B2,C and calcium,iron,zinc,selenium daily intake in GDM patients were less than those in the control group,but there was significant difference only in calcium compared with the control group (GDM group (785.2 ± 194.5) mg,control group (945.5 ± 245.2)mg,t =2.795,P =0.005).Multivariate logistic regression found that excessive intake of fried class (OR =3.357,95% CI =2.012-11.340),barbecue (OR =2.652,95% CI =1.834-8.578),sausage type products (OR =2.518,95% CI =1.743-7.421) etc.were dietary factors of GDM (all P < 0.05).Incidence of GDM was significantly increased if taking more.While the increased intake of coarse grains (OR =0.632 95% CI =0.134-1.489),seafood class(OR =0.408,95% CI =0.105-1.189) can reduce the occurrence of GDM(all P < 0.05).Conclusion Many unscientific ways of eating involved in pregnant women with GDM.Dessert,sausage,grilled,fried products intake increased the risk factors for GDM.Coarse grains,seafood intake were the protective factors of GDM.Timely adjustment of maternal diet and adequate calcium supplementation played an important role in the prevention of GDM.

[Abstract] Objective: To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA LINC01001 in breast cancer tissues and its effect on the proliferation of breast cancer MCF-7 cells. Methods: The expression levels of lncRNA LINC01001 were analyzed in 12 cases of cancer and para-cancer tissues from breast cancer patients, who underwent surgical resection in Affiliated People’s Hospital of Hubei University of Medicine from March 2016 to June 2017. The plasmid over-expressing LINC01001 was transfected into human breast cancer MCF-7 cells. The cell cycle distribution and proliferation ability of MCF-7 cells were detected by flow cytometry and MTT assay, respectively. The mRNA expressions of miR-485-5p and CDKN1A mRNA were detected by qRT-PCR, and the protein expressions of CDKN1A, CDK4, CDK6 and Cyclin D1 were detected by Western blotting. Results: The expression level of lncRNA LINC01001 in breast cancer tissues was lower than that in para-cancer tissues (P<0.01). LINC01001 recombinant plasmid transfection significantly inhibited cell cycle progression (P<0.05) and cell proliferation (P<0.05) of MCF-7 cells. qRT-PCR showed that the expression level of miR-485-5p was decreased (P<0.01) and the expression level of CDKN1A mRNA was increased (P<0.01) after over-expressing LINC01001. Western blot results confirmed that over-expression of LINC01001 could promote the expression of CDKN1A protein, but decrease the expressions of CDK4, CDK6 and Cyclin D1 proteins. Conclusion: The expression of LINC01001 in breast cancer tissues was decreased. LINC01001 may down-regulate the expression of miR-485-5p to up-regulate the expression of CDKN1A, and further to inhibit the proliferation of breast cancer MCF-7 cells, providing experimental basis for the clinical application of lncRNA.
