1.Association between stressful life events during pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes: a review
Journal of Preventive Medicine 2023;35(7):587-590
Improving the quality of newborns is a health development strategy, which has attracted global attention. Adverse pregnancy outcomes, including preterm birth, low birth weight and small for gestational age, are major causes of perinatal mortality and disability. Based on review of international and national publications pertaining to associations between stressful life events during pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes from 2007 to 2023, this review summarizes the correlation between stressful life events during pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes, including preterm birth, low birth weight and small for gestational age, and describes the underlying biological mechanisms. Previous studies have demonstrated the associations between maternal stressful life events during pregnancy and adverse pregnancy outcomes, and the underlying mechanisms mainly include neuroendocrine regulation, inflammation and microbiota pathways; however, the exact mechanisms remain unclear until now. Further studies to identify the critical window period for the association between stressful life events and adverse pregnancy outcomes, and unravel the pathogenesis of adverse pregnancy outcomes are warranted, so as to provide insights into reduction of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of MRI on fetal congenital diaphragmatic hernia(CDH).Methods Fourteen pregnant women with gestation from 16 to 39 weeks were studied with a 1.5 T superconductive MR unit within 24 to 48 hours after ultrasound studies.Fast-imaging employing steady-state acquisition(FIESTA),single-shot fast spin echo(SSFSE)and T_1-weighted fast inversion recovery motion insensitive(FIRM)sequences were employed on the axial,coronal and sagittal planes of the fetal brain,thorax and abdomen,especially the thorax.Prenatal US and MR imaging findings were compared with postnatal diagnoses(13 fetuses)or autopsy(1 fetus).US,MR imaging and surgery were used for postnatal evaluation.Results Fourteen pregnant women(12 with a single fetus and 2 with twin fetuses)were studied.There were 12 fetuses(in 2 cases,being one of twins)with a left-sided and 2 with right-sided diaphragmatic hernias.For all cases,the prenatal MRI diagnosis Was correct when compared with postnatal diagnosis or autopsy.Two CDHs were missed and 2 were misdiagnosed by US.Intrathoracic herniated organs in 12 left CDH included the colon(n=1),the stomach(n=1),the bewel(n=5),or both the stomach and bowel(n=5).Intrathoracic herniated organs in 2 right CDH included the bowel(n=1),or the bowel and the right lobe of the liver(n=1).Conclusion Prenatal MRI is effective in the assessment of fetal congenital diaphragmatic hernia.

OBJECTIVE:To establish a method for simultaneous determination of the contents of ligustroflavone,specnuezhe-nide,demethylwedelolactone and wedelolactone in Zibu ganshen pill. METHODS:Dual-wavelength HPLC was performed on the column of Elite C18 with mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.5%acetic acid(gradient elution)at flow rate of 0.9 ml/min,column temper-ature was 25 ℃,detection wavelengths were 224 nm(0-30 min) and 351 nm (30-50 min),and the injection volume was 20 μl. RESULTS:The linear range was 6.75-135.00μg/ml(r=0.999 5)for ligustroflavone,6.54-130.80μg/ml(r=0.999 8)for specnuezhe-nide,4.90-98.00μg/ml(r=0.999 4)for demethylwedelolactone and 6.42-128.40μg/ml(r=0.999 6)for wedelolactone;RSDs of pre-cision,stability and reproducibility tests were no more than 1.25%;average recoveries were 96.15%-99.96%(RSD<2%,n=6). CONCLUSIONS:The method is rapid,sensitive and accurate,and can be used for the contents determination of ligustroflavone, specnuezhenide,demethylwedelolactone and wedelolactone in Zibu ganshen pill.

Objective To explore the value of MRI on fetal autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD).Methods Sixteen pregnant women,aged from 28 to 38 years (average 30 years) and with gestation age from 22 to 36 weeks (average 25 weeks) underwent MR scanning with a 1.5 T MR unit within 24 to 48 hours after ultrasound examinations.The imaging sequences included steady-state free-precession (SSFP) sequence,single-shot turbo spin echo (SSTSE) sequence and T1-weighted fast imaging sequence.Prenatal US and MR imaging findings were compared with autopsy or pathological results.Results A total of 16 cases of ARPKD showed bilateral markedly enlarged kidneys and diffuse high signal small cysts in renal medulla on SSTSE sequence.Among the 16 cases,11 cases were with oligohydramnios,1 1 cases were with pulmonary hypoplasia,and 6 cases were with hepatic fibrosis.Eleven cases of pulmonary hypoplasia and 6 cases of hepatic fibrosis were all missed by US.For the diagnosis of the renal anomalies,US missed one case.MRI diagnosis was correct in all these cases.Conclusions MRI shows great advantages on the diagnosis of fetal ARPKD,and it is not affected by the amount of amniotic fluid.It can be used to evaluate kidney and lung abnormalities accurately.

Purpose:Telomerase was discovered recently as an important tumor marker, and the necessary gene sequence which is closely related with telomerase activity is one of the methods to study the telomerase regulation mechanism. Methods:RT PCR, Northern blot were used to test the relationship between the expression of hEST2 reverse transcriptase motif fragment and telomerase activity, classic telomerase measurement method was set up as contol. Results:Indicate that the expression of 7 RT motifs fragment which include telomerase specific T motif have a close relationship with telomerase activity. Conclusions:It will be helpful to further research of telomerase regulation mechanism, diagnosis and inhibition.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of MRI on fetal neural tube defects.Methods Ten pregnant women,aged from 25 to 35 years(average 28 years)and with gestation from 20-39 weeks(average 33 weeks)were studied with a 1.5 T superconductive MR unit within 24 to 48 hours after ultrasound(US)studies.The imaging protocol included fast-imaging employing steady-state acquisition,single-shot FSE and T_1-weighted fast inversion recovery motion insensitive sequences in the axial,frontal,and sagittal planes relative to the fetal brain,thorax,abdomen,and spines.Prenatal US and MRI findings were compared with postnatal MRI diagnoses(3 fetuses)or autopsy(7 fetuses).Results Ten pregnant women(9 with a single fetus and 1 with twin fetuses)were examined.For all cases,the diagnoses established by MRI were correct when compared with postnatal diagnosis or autopsy.In 7 cases,US and MRI findings were in complete agreement with postnatal diagnoses.US missed the diagnosis in 1 case and misdiagnosed in 2 cases.Ten neural tube defects in this study included anencephaly(1 case),exencephaly (1 case),meningoencephalocele associated with amniotic band sequence(1 case),meningocele(1 case),thoracic myelomeningocele(1 case),lumbar spinal bifida(1 case),sacroiliac myelomeningocele(2 cases),sacroiliac large cystic spinal meningocele(1 case),sacroiliac spinal bifida(1 case).Conclusions Prenatal MRI is effective in the assessment of fetal neural tube defects.It can exactly discriminate herniated contents and locate the spinal lesion level.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of MRI on fetal congenital limb deformities.Methods Sixteen pregnant women,aged from 22 to 40 years (average 29 years) and with gestation from 22 to 39 weeks (average 29 weeks) were studied with a 1.5 T superconductive MR unit within 24 to 48 hours after ultrasound studies. Acquisitions consisted of coronal, sagittal, and axial slices relative to the fetal brain, spine, thorax, abdomen, especially limbs using 2D FIESTA sequences. Prenatal US and MR imaging findings were compared with postnatal diagnoses (4 fetuses) or autopsy (12 pregnant women,13 fetuses). Postnatal evaluation included US, MR imaging, computed tomography, and physical examination. Results Of the sixteen pregnant women (15 with a single fetus and 1 with twin fetuses) ,17 fetuses were found. Those limb deformities of sixteen pregnant women included congenital both upper extremities amelia (1 case), sirenomelia sequence (1 case), micmmelia (5 cases, 1 of which were twins),bilateral clenched hands (2 cases), right pelydactyly (1 case), simple right ectrodactyly (1 case), right dactylolysis(1 case), simple club foot (2 cases), hydrocele spinalis with club foot (2 cases), 1 of the 2 cases with bilateral clinodactyly. In 14 of 16 cases, the diagnoses established by MR imaging were correct when compared with postnatal diagnosis, and prenatal MR diagnosis was inaccurate in 2 cases. Conclusion Prenatal MRI is effective in the assessment of congenital limb deformities of fetuses, it can yield information additional to that obtained with US, and further correct US diagnosis.
