Objective To know the research status and the tendency of development about the catheter depth of retention enema.Methods All the clinical studies about the catheter depth of retention enema were searched in China national knowledge internet (CNKI),VIP,Chinese biological medical disc and WanFang database from January 26th 2016.Bibliometric analysis was used to analyze these articles from the distribution of the year,periodical,region,work unit,fund,study type and the characteristics of included studies.Results A total of 76 articles were included and the number of published articles was stable in recent years.The majority was journal articles and was published in nursing journals.Most of the published articles were from Shandong,Guangdong and Sichuan province.Most of the authors were work in hospitals.Funding source was poor.58 (76.3％) articles were about random control trails (RCTs).The catheter depth in the experimental group was 3-60 cm;the number of samples included in the study was 15-560,while none was estimated.8 studies reported the inclusion criteria,and 6 studies reported the exclusion criteria.Baseline comparability was reported in 50 studies.Conclusions Although the number of clinical studies on the catheter depth of retention enema is at the stable stage,the study design and methodological quality still need to be further improved.Researchers should follow the principle of randomization,control and blinding in the future researches;specify the strict inclusion and exclusion criteria;and set up a reasonable control to ensure the authenticity and reliability of the findings.

Objective:To systematically evaluate effects of auricular acupoint pressing on improving perimenopausal insomnia.Methods:The randomized controlled trials of auricular plaster therapy to improve perimenopausal insomnia was searched by computer in domestic and foreign databases, and the search time was from the establishment of each database to October 25, 2018. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data and evaluated the risk of bias in the included literature and RevMan 5.3 analysis software was used for data analysis.Results:A total of 6 Chinese literatures were included. Meta-analysis results showed that there was no statistically significant difference in Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score reduction by auricular acupoint pressing compared with estazolam ( WMD=-0.06, 95% CI: -0.96-0.84, P=0.90) .Auricular acupoint pressing was better than Anshen Buxin capsule in reducing PSQI score ( WMD=-5.16, 95% CI: -7.37--2.95, P<0.000 01) . Auricular acupoint pressing could effectively improve perimenopausal insomnia, and the difference was statistically significant ( RR=1.19, 95% CI: 1.08-1.31, P=0.000 4) . Auricular acupoint pressing with beans combined with oral modified Huanglian Ejiao Decoction was better than oral modified Huanglian Ejiao Decoction alone in reducing Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS) scores ( WMD=-2.60, 95% CI: -4.42--0.78, P=0.005) . Compared with modified Chaihu Guizhi Longgu Muli Decoction treatment, auricular acupoint pressing combined with modified Chaihu Guizhi Longgu Muli Decoction could effectively reduce the modified Kupperman score ( WMD=-4.07, 95% CI: -6.36--1.78, P=0.000 5) . In terms of reducing the scores of the social support scale, there was no statistically significant difference between the auricular acupoint pressing with beans and estazolam ( WMD=-0.16, 95% CI: -1.26-0.94, P=0.78) . Conclusions:Auricular acupoint pressing has advantages in improving the total effective rate, reducing PSQI score and AIS score and improving Kupperman score. Limited by the quantity and quality of the included literatures, more large-sample high-quality studies with long-term follow-ups are needed for verification.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the pre-conception factors for intrauterine growth retardation. METHODS: A nested case-control study was conducted in a cohort of 1368 women from 14 Child and Maternity Health Care Departments by cluster sampling method in Liuyang City, Hunan Province. Following-up until delivery, we collected their medical records and maternal health care manual materials. All neonates with intrauterine growth retardation were detected in the follow-up (the case group) and another 186 neonates without intrauterine growth retardation, matched with gender and mother's age, were randomly selected from the cohort as controls. χ2 test and multiple conditional logistic regression were used to investigate the determinants of intrauterine growth retardation. RESULTS: Intrauterine growth retardation was associated with BMI (OR=64.775), waist circumference (OR=0.166), abortion (OR=6.997), level of total cholesterol (OR=0.045), folic acid (OR=0.077), and cortisol (OR=9.164). CONCLUSION Intrauterine growth retardation is associated with BMI, waist circumference, abortion,level of total cholesterol, folic acid, and cortisol. Effective measures to reduce intrauterine growth retardation in children include strengthening the detection of pre-pregnancy blood biochemical indicators to guide health care during pregnancy, and increasing nutrition during pregnancy according to pre-pregnancy BMI and waist circumference.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the incidence and risk factors of postpartum hemorrhage in Liuyang City, Hunan Province. METHODS: This was a nested case-control study. A total of 14 townships were randomly selected by cluster random sampling method from 37 townships in Liuyang City, Hunan Province. All women who got pregnant and childbirth from January 2010 to December 2011 in the above 14 townships were selected and followed up at first-trimester, second trimester, third trimester and each delivery period. Data were collected directly from maternal care manuals and the clinical records from the subjects' delivery hospitals. These whose postpartum bleeding was more than 500 mL were selected as cases, and the same amounts of normal maternal in the same cohort study whose postpartum bleeding was less than 500 mL were selected as controls. χ2 test and unconditional logistic regression analysis were applied to identify the determinants. RESULTS: A total of 5 933 women were included in our study. The incidence of postpartum hemorrhage was 2.22%. Unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors for postpartum hemorrhage mainly included anemia (OR=3.940, 95% CI: 2.100-7.389), scarred uterus (OR=2.730, 95% CI: 1.198-6.220), placenta previa (OR=10.665, 95% CI: 1.142-99.566), placental factors (OR=4.332, 95% CI: 1.004-18.692), and prolonged pregnancy (OR=5.899, 95% CI: 2.602-13.376). CONCLUSION Postpartum hemorrhage is caused by complicated factors. Comprehensive measures should be taken to reduce postpartum hemorrhage.
