Objective To evaluate the influences of abnormal glucose challenge test (GCT) on pregnancy outcomes and neonatal anthropometric data in women with normal oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).Methods Totally 214 women who delivered in the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from November 2006 to December 2007 were enrolled.50 g GCT was performed at 24-28 weeks of gestation and 75 g OGTT would be followed if GCT≥7.8 mmol/L.Those patients,whose OGTT results below the following criteria (5.3 mmoL/L,10.0 mmol/L,8.6 mmol/L,7.8 mmol/L),were classified as normal OGTT.Altogether,116 of the 214 women with abnormal GCT and normal OGTT were collected as the study group and the rest 98 women with normal GCT as the control group.The pregnant outcomes of the two groups were analyzed.The neonatal anthropometry,including birth weight,body length,head circumference and shoulder circumference,were recorded.Other neonatal anthropometric data,such as upper arm circumference,tricep skinfold thickness and hypodermic fat thickness of abdomen were measured by a tape measure within 24 hours after birth.Results (1) Pregnant outcomes:No significant difference was found in the rate of assisted vaginal delivery,polyhydramnios,premature rupture of membranes and fetal distress between the study and control group[10.3% (12/116) vs 4% (4/98),5.2% (6/116) vs 10% (10/98),13.8% (16/116) vs 17% (17/98),20.7% (24/116) vs 13% (13/98),P >0.05,respectively],but the rate of cesarean section,spontaneous vaginal delivery and large for gestational age babies in the study group were different from those of the control[72.4% (84/116) vs 51% (51/98),17.2%(20/116) vs 45% (44/98),25.9% (30/116) vs 6% (6/98),P <0.05,respectively].(2)Neonatal anthropometry:The birth weight of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group[(3.4 ±0.4) kg vs (3.3±0.4) kg,P <0.05],but no significant difference was shown in any other neonatal anthropometric results between the study and control group,including body length[(49.9 ±1.3)cm vs (49.7±1.4) cm],head circumference[(33.4±1.5)cm vs (33.8±1.7) cm],shoulder circumference [(35.4±2.3)cm vs (35.0±2.3)cm],upper arm circumference[(11.0±0.7)cm vs (10.9±0.8)cm],tricep skinfold thickness[(9.7±1.0)mm vs (9.9± 1.4)mm]and hypodermic fat thickness of abdomen[(7.2±1.2)mm vs (7.2+1.0)mm;all P>0.05].Conclusion Women with abnormal GCT alone may have no significant influences on neonatal anthropometric data,but might have more cesarean section,large for gestational age babies,and neonatal birth weight than those women with normal GCT.

Objective To investigate the changes in nunmber and function of natural killer ( NK ) cells in patients with newly-diagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus.Methods Cell courning was performed in peripheral blood mononuclear cell ( PBMC ) subsets in 43 cases with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes ( T1D ),14 cases with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes( T2D ) and 21 cases of normal controls by flow cytometry sorting.And then,isolating and collecting NK cells were performed in T1D patients and normal controls.Real time PCR was performed to evaluate the mRNA expression levels of NK cell activity related genes IFN-γ,perforin,NKp46,and NKp30 in NK cells.Results Compared to normal controls,both the proportion and the absolute counting of NK cells in PBMC from patients with T1D were significantly decreased [( 102±86 )/μl vs ( 355±264 )/μ1,P<0.01],while only the proportion of CD4+ cell were slightly increased( P<0.05 ).No statistical difference was observed regarding CD8+ T cells ( P>0.05 ).mRNA expression levels of NK cell activity related genes perforin and NKp46 in NK cells were remarkably down-regulated ( P<0.05 ),while IFN-γ and NKp30 were not changed compared with normal controls.Conclusions The reduced number and functional deficiency of NK cells may lead to the immune dysfunction in T1D and play an important role in the development of T1D.

Objective To investigate blood plasma melatonin level in night-shift nurses and explore the relationship of blood plasma melatonin level with nervous system symptom (insomnia、anxiety、depression). Methods ELISA were used for detection of blood plasma melatonin level in 80 night-shift nurses of different age group. Results Blood plasma melatonin level of shift work nurses (36to40、41to45 yearold) were significant lower than the corresponding age group of the control group, the nervous system symptom of these age group night-shift nurses correlated to melatonin level of melatonin. Conclusions Blood plasma level of melatonin have a close relation to nervous system symptom(insomnia、anxietydepression).

OBJECTIVETo explore common biological pathways for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and low birth weight (LBW).
METHODSThei-Gsea4GwasV2 software was used to analyze the result of genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) for LBW (pathways were derived from Reactome), and nominally significant (P< 0.05, FDR< 0.25) pathways were tested for replication in ADHD.Significant pathways were analyzed with DAPPLE and Reatome FI software to identify genes involved in such pathways, with each cluster enriched with the gene ontology (GO). The Centiscape2.0 software was used to calculate the degree of genetic networks and the betweenness value to explore the core node (gene). Weighed gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was then used to explore the co-expression of genes in these pathways.With gene expression data derived from BrainSpan, GO enrichment was carried out for each gene module.
RESULTSEleven significant biological pathways was identified in association with LBW, among which two (Selenoamino acid metabolism and Diseases associated with glycosaminoglycan metabolism) were replicated during subsequent ADHD analysis. Network analysis of 130 genes in these pathways revealed that some of the sub-networksare related with morphology of cerebellum, development of hippocampus, and plasticity of synaptic structure. Upon co-expression network analysis, 120 genes passed the quality control and were found to express in 3 gene modules. These modules are mainly related to the regulation of synaptic structure and activity regulation.
CONCLUSIONADHD and LBW share some biological regulation processes. Anomalies of such proces sesmay predispose to ADHD.

ObjectiveTo explore the impact of autonomic nerve function on motor function in patients with post-stroke depression (PSD) from the perspective of regional homogeneity (ReHo). MethodsFrom January to December, 2020, a total of 60 inpatients and outpatients with cerebral infarction in the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were divided into control group (n = 30) and PSD group (n = 30). Two groups were assessed using Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), modified Barthel Index (MBI) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD). Heart rate variability (HRV) was measured. Ten patients in each group were selected randomly to undergo resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) to calculate ReHo. ResultsAll HRV indices were lower in PSD group than in the control group (|t| > 2.092, P < 0.05). In PSD group, FMA and MBI scores showed positive correlations with 24-hour standard deviation of normal-to-normal R-R intervals (SDNN), the root mean square of successive differences between normal heartbeats over 24 hours (RMSSD), the percentage of differences between adjacent normal R-R intervals over 24 hours that were greater than 50 ms (PNN50), total power (TP), very low frequency power (VLF) and low frequency power (LF) (r > 0.394, P < 0.05), and showed negative correlations with HAMD scores (|r| > 0.919, P < 0.001). HAMD scores in PSD group were negatively correlated with SDNN, RMSSD, PNN50, TP and VLF (|r| > 0.769, P < 0.001). Compared with the control group, the ReHo increased in PSD group in the right rectus gyrus (142 voxels, t = 6.575), the left medial and paracingulate gyri (204 voxels, t = 4.925) (GRF correction, P-Voxel < 0.005,P-Cluster < 0.05); and reduced in the right cerebellum (191 voxels, t = -6.487), the left middle temporal gyrus (140 voxels, t = -5.516), and the left precentral gyrus (119 voxels, t = -4.764) (GRF correction, P-Voxel < 0.005,P-Cluster < 0.05) in PSD group. ConclusionAutonomic nerve function is related to motor dysfunction in patients with PSD. The modulation of emotional, cognitive and motor brain regions by the autonomic nervous system may play a role in influencing the motor function in patients with PSD.
