Objective To explore the application of temporary balloon occlusion in multidisciplinary management of cesarean sec-tion for patients with pernicious placenta previa/accreta.Methods 42 patients with a diagnosis of placenta previa /accrete accepted the temporary aortic balloon occlusion in cesarean section in DSA hybrid operation room were retrospectively studied.Before cesare-an section,intravascular balloon catheter was placed in abdominal aortic.After delivery,the midpoint of filling state balloon was placed at the midpoint of the two renal arteries openings before placental dissection.The amount of blood loss and blood transfusion, operation time,the infants'radiation doses and postoperative complications were determined.Results All patients were successfully fulfilled cesarean section and conserved uteri.The amount of blood loss,blood transfusion,operation time,occlusion time and the infants’radiation doses were (586±355)mL,(422±283)mL,(75.5±1 1.9)min,(22.4±7.2)min and (4.2±2.9)mGy,respec-tively.During follow-up,complications were not found during operation and after operation.Conclusion In women with pernicious placenta previa/accreta,temporary aortic balloon occlusion can effectively control postpartum hemorrhage and reduce the risk of un-desirable hysterectomy.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy between single and double volume exchange transfusion for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia,and to verify whether single volume exchange transfusion had advantages in maintaining homeostasis and reducing blood transfusion related complications.Methods Clinical materials of 86 neonates with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia who received blood exchange transfusion,from December 2013 to December 2014,in the diagnosis and treatment center of our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.Cases were divided into the single volume group (35 cases,with a blood volume 80-110 mL/kg) and double volume group (51 cases,with a blood volume 150-180 mL/kg) based on blood volume per kilogram of body weight.Comparisons of the homeostasis changes between pre-transfusion and post-transfusion were performed for each group,and the incidence rate of major adverse events were compared between the two groups.Results (1)In the single volume group and double volume group,the average blood exchange transfusion volumes were (98.16 ± 10.75) mL/kg and (157.78 ± 7.37) mL/kg,the exchange rate of bilirubin were (41.68± 8.52) ％ and (50.22 ± 13.14) ％,and the average time for blood transfusion were (85.60 ±18.66) min and(1 1B.22± 24.81)min respectively,and there were statistically significant differences in the exchange rate of bilirubin and average time for blood transfusion between the two groups (P＜0.05).(2)Compared with pre-transfusion,WBC and platelet (PLT)count,levels of serum total bilirubin (TBIL),albumin,serum potassium,serum sodium,serum chlorine,serum calcium and HCO3-,and pH value were significantly decreased after blood exchange transfusion,while RBC count,PT,APTT and blood glucose were significantly increased in the two groups (P＜0.01).Moreover,the changes of blood glucose,PLT and TBIL in the double volume group were more significantly than those in the single volume group,there were statistically significant differences (P＜0.05).No statistically significant difference was found in the rate of major adverse events between the two groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with double blood exchange transfusion therapy,single volume exchange transfusion can significantly decrease plasmic bilirubin level with less change of homeostasis,less blood volume for transfusion and less human resources consumption,its value in clinical application is recognized.

Two sample pretreatment methods of pesticide residues in Panax notoginseng of Chinese traditional medicine were developed. For Method I, the residues were extracted from homogenized tissue with n-hexane-dichloromethane (6:4) by means of ultrasonication, the crude extract was purified by an Envi-carb/NH2 solid-phase extraction (SPE) column. For Method II, matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) technique was used for extracting and cleaning up. The eluates were concentrated by rotary evaporation, and then were redissolved in dichloromethane prior to GC-MS determination. The determination was performed in selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode with the external calibration for quantitative analysis. Under the optimal conditions, the results indicated that the methods are easier and faster, the recoveries of method I for the spiked standards at concentration of 0.01, 0.5, and 2.0 mg x kg(-1) were 81.90%-102.10% with the relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 3.60%-7.10%. The recoveries of method II were 96.26%-104.20% with the RSDs of 3.52%-7.94%. The detection limits (S/N) for residues of pesticides were in the range of 0.48-1.34 ng x g(-1). The results indicated that these multiresidue analysis methods can meet the requirements for determination of residue pesticides and can be appropriate for trace analysis of residue pesticides in Panax notoginseng.

Objective:To investigate and analyze disease status and risk factors of venous thromboembolism (VTE) during pregnancy and puerperium in our country.Methods:Clinical datas were collected from 575 patients diagnosed with VTE during pregnancy and puerperium and hospitalized in nine medical institutions in our country from January 1, 2015 to November 30, 2019, and retrospectively analyzed it′s disease status and risk factors.Results:(1) The proportion of VTE in pregnancy and puerperium was 50.6% (291/575) and 49.4% (284/575), respectively. Four patients died, the mortality rate was 0.7% (4/575). The cause of death was pulmonary embolism. (2) The location of VTE during pregnancy and puerperium was mainly in the lower limb vascular (76.2%, 438/575), followed by pulmonary vessels (7.1%, 41/575). (3) In the risk factors of VTE, cesarean section accounted for 32.3% (186/575), maternal advance age accounted for 27.7% (159/575), braking or hospitalization during pregnancy accounted for 13.6% (78/575), other risk factors accounted for more than 5% were previous VTE, obesity, preterm birth, assistant reproductive technology conception and so on, pre-eclampsia and multiple pregnancy accounted for 4.9% (28/575) respectively. In addition, some patients with VTE did not have any of the above risk factors, and the incidence rate was as high as 23.1% (133/575).Conclusions:The occurrence of VTE during pregnancy and puerperium is related to multiple risk factors, and could lead to matemal death, It is very necessary to screen VTE risk factors for all pregnant women, to make corresponding prevention and control measures.

Objective:To investigate the safety of the Triple-P procedure in women complicated with severe placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS) and its influence on second pregnancy.Methods:From January 2015 to December 2017, the outcomes of the second pregnancy after the Triple-P procedure in 11 pregnant women complicated with PAS in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed.Results:By December 2021, a total of 11 pregnant women who underwent the Triple-P procedure for PAS had a second pregnancy, with a median interval of 3 years (2-3 years). Of the 11 pregnant women, 7 delivered after 36 weeks of gestation. The median gestational age was 38 weeks, and 4 terminated within the first trimester. PAS recurred in 1 of 7 pregnant women (1/7) and was associated with placenta previa. All of the 7 pregnant women were delivered by cesarean section, with a median postpartum blood loss of 300 ml (200-450 ml), and only one pregnant woman required blood transfusion. None of the pregnant women were transferred to the intensive care unit, and there were no uterine rupture, bladder injury, puerperal infection, and neonatal adverse outcomes.Conclusion:Pregnant women who underwent the Triple-P procedure for severe PAS could be considered for second pregnancy with strictly management by an experienced multidisciplinary team, which may result in a good outcome.

Objective To evaluate the risk factors and sonographic findings of pregnancies complicated by placenta increta or placenta percreta. Methods Totally, 2219 cases were retrospectively analyzed from 20 tertiary hospitals in China from January 2011 to December 2015. The data were collected based on the original case records. All cases were divided into two groups, the placenta increta (PI) group (79.1％, 1755/2219) and the placenta percreta (PP) group (20.9％, 464/2219), according to the degree of placental implantation. The risk factors and sonographic findings of placenta increta or percreta were analyzed by uni-factor and logistic regression statistic methods. Results The risk factors associated with the degree of placental implantation were age, gravida, previous abortion or miscarriage, previous cesarean sections, and placenta previa (all P<0.05), especially, previous cesarean sections (χ2=157.961) and placenta previa (χ2=91.759). Sonographic findings could be used to predict the degree of placental invasion especially the boundaries between placenta and uterine serosa, the boundary between placenta and myometrium, the disruption of the placental-uterine wall interface and loss of the normal retroplacental hypoechoic zone(all P<0.01). Conclusions Previous cesarean sections and placenta previa are the main independent risk factors associated with the degree of placenta implantation. Ultrasound could be used to make a prenatal suggestive diagnosis of placenta accreta spectrum disorders.

Background:Complete colonoscopy is key to the diagnosis and treatment of colorectal disease,its role in reducing the morbidity and mortality of colorectal cancer is well known.Nonetheless,there are numerous factors,not just from the endoscopist's perspective but also from the patient's,that can potentially increase the difficulty of completing a colonoscopy.Aims:To identify patient-related factors that influenced the difficulty of a colonoscopy.Methods:Through two rounds of expert consultation,the factors that might affect the difficulty of colonoscopy were selected.A total of 1621 consecutive painless colonoscopies from Jan.2021 to Jan.2022 at the endoscopy center of The Affiliated Wuxi People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were evaluated in a retrospective manner.Factors including demographic data,cecal insertion time,adenoma detection rate and so on were recorded.These factors were analyzed to determine their association with difficulty by using Logistic regression model.Results:A total of 29 patient-related factors affecting the difficulty of colonoscopy were selected.Through retrospective analysis,the mean age of 1621 cases was(47.45±13.27)years,of which 45.8%were male and the mean body mass index was(23.32±3.11)kg/m2.Logistic regression analysis revealed that age≥60 years(OR=2.890,95%CI:1.957-4.269,P<0.001),female gender(OR=0.324,95%CI:0.217-0.484,P<0.001),history of gynecological surgery(OR=14.895,95%CI:9.741-22.776,P<0.001),constipation for 20-30 years(OR= 1.412,95%CI:0.925-2.156,P=0.010)were independent risk factors for difficult colonoscopy.Conclusions:This retrospective study identified several patient-related factors that influence the technical difficulty of colonoscopy.These findings had implications for practice and teaching of colonoscopy.

Objective:To explore the effects of interpregnancy interval (IPI) on pregnancy outcomes of subsequent pregnancy.Methods:A multicenter retrospective study was conducted in 21 hospitals in China. Information of age, height, pre-pregnancy weight, IPI, history of diseases, complications of pregnancy, gestational age of delivery, delivery mode, and pregnancy outcomes of the participants were collected by consulting medical records of pregnant women who had two consecutive deliveries in the same hospital during 2011 to 2018. The participants were divided into 4 groups according to IPI:<18 months, 18-23 months, 24-59 months and ≥60 months. According to the WHO′s recommendation, with the IPI of 24-59 months group as a reference, to the effects of IPI on pregnancy outcomes of subsequent pregnancy were analyzed. Stratified analysis was further carried out based on age, history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), macrosomia, and premature delivery, to explore the differences in the effects of IPI on pregnancy outcomes among women with different characteristics.Results:A total of 8 026 women were included in this study. There were 423, 623, 5 512 and 1 468 participants in <18 months group, 18-23 months group, 24-59 months group and ≥60 months group, respectively. (1) The age, pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI), history of cesarean section, GDM, gestational hypertension and cesarean section delivery rate of <18 months group, 18-23 months group, 24-59 months group and ≥60 months group were gradually increased, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). (2) After adjusting for potential confounding factors, compared with women in the IPI of 24-59 months group, the risk of premature delivery, premature rupture of membranes, and oligohydramnios were increased by 42% ( OR=1.42, 95% CI: 1.07-1.88, P=0.015), 46% ( OR=1.46, 95% CI: 1.13-1.88, P=0.004), and 64% ( OR=1.64, 95% CI: 1.13-2.38, P=0.009) respectively for women in the IPI≥60 months group. No effects of IPI on other pregnancy outcomes were found in this study ( P>0.05). (3) After stratified by age and adjusted for confounding factors, compared with women in the IPI of 24-59 months group, IPI≥60 months would significantly increase the risk of oligohydramnios for women with advanced age ( OR=2.87, 95% CI: 1.41-5.83, P=0.004); and <18 months could increase the risk of premature rupture of membranes for women under the age of 35 ( OR=1.59, 95% CI: 1.04-2.43, P=0.032). Both the risk of premature rupture of membranes ( OR=1.58, 95% CI: 1.18-2.13, P=0.002) and premature delivery ( OR=1.52, 95% CI: 1.07-2.17, P=0.020) were significantly increased in the IPI≥60 months group. After stratified by history of GDM and adjusted for confounding factors, compared with women in the IPI of 24-59 months group, IPI≥60 months would lead to an increased risk of postpartum hemorrhage for women with a history of GDM ( OR=5.34, 95% CI: 1.45-19.70, P=0.012) and an increased risk of premature rupture of membranes for women without a history of GDM ( OR=1.44, 95% CI: 1.10-1.90, P=0.009). After stratified by history of macrosomia and adjusted for confounding factors, compared with women in the IPI of 24-59 months group, IPI≥60 months could increase the proportion of cesarean section for women with a history of macrosomia ( OR=4.11, 95% CI: 1.18-14.27, P=0.026) and the risk of premature rupture of membranes for women without a history of macrosomia ( OR=1.46, 95% CI: 1.12-1.89, P=0.005). After stratified by history of premature delivery and adjusted for confounding factors, compared with women in the IPI of 24-59 months group, IPI≥60 months would significantly increase the risk of premature rupture of membranes for women without a history of premature delivery ( OR=1.47, 95% CI: 1.13-1.92, P=0.004). Conclusions:Both IPI≥60 months and <18 months would increase the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes in the subsequent pregnancy. Healthcare education and consultation should be conducted for women of reproductive age to maintain an appropriate IPI when they plan to pregnant again, to reduce the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes in the subsequent pregnancy.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of iron deficiency(ID)and iron deficiency anemia (IDA) in pregnant women in urban areas of China. Methods The study was a national cross-sectional survey conducted from September 19th, 2016 to November 20th, 2016. According to the classification of the National Bureau of Statistics, all survey sites were set up in 6 regions of the country. Pregnant women were continuously selected using multistage stratified sampling. A total of 12 403 pregnant women were collected and examined for serum ferritin and hemoglobin levels. Results The median serum ferritin level during pregnancy was 20.60 μg/L(11.78-36.98 μg/L), the hemoglobin level was(118±12)g/L. With the progress of pregnancy, the levels of serum ferritin and hemoglobin decreased gradually. The median serum ferritin levels in the first, second trimester and third trimester were 54.30 μg/L(34.48-94.01 μg/L), 28.60 μg/L(16.40-50.52 μg/L), and 16.70 μg/L(10.20-27.00 μg/L)respectively(P<0.01). The mean hemoglobin levels were(127 ± 10)g/L,(119 ± 11)g/L and(117 ± 11)g/L respectively(P<0.01). The prevalence of ID in urban pregnant women was 48.16%(5 973/12 403), and IDA prevalence was 13.87% (1 720/12 403). The prevalence of IDA in the first, second trimester and third trimester were 1.96% (20/1 019), 8.40%(293/3 487)and 17.82%(1 407/7 897), respectively(P<0.01). The prevalence of standardized ID and IDA were significantly different in various regions of China(P<0.01). The standardized prevalence of ID were relatively higher in East China and Northeast China, 57.37% and 53.41% respectively, while it was the lowest in Southwest China, 30.51%. The standardized prevalence of IDA in South Central, Northwest, and East China were relatively high, 21.30%, 16.97% and 17.53% respectively, and the standardized prevalence of IDA in Southwest China was the lowest, 5.44%,the differents in various regions were significant(all P<0.01). Conclusion The current phenomenon of ID and IDA in pregnant women is still very common,and nutrition and health care during pregnancy should be strengthened.
