Objectives To explore the nutritional status of fatty acids in the newborn and their mother, and the role of the placenta in fetal nutrition. Methods The composition of fatty acids in blood, placenta, and neonatal umbilical cord blood were determined and analyzed by gas chromatography in 20 normal pregnant women. Results In 20 pregnant women in the study, average age was 27.0±4.5 years, the average gestational age of their newborns was 38.0±3.0 weeks, the average birth weight of newborns was 3320±127 g. There were 18 types of fatty acids in maternal blood, umbilical cord and placenta, including saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. The total fatty acid content in maternal blood (3.51±0.57 g/L) was 5 times higher than that in umbilical cord blood (0.74±0.18 g/L), and there was statistically difference (P<0.05). The content of linoleic acid (LA) in maternal blood was higher than that in umbilical cord blood and placenta; the content of arachidonic acid (AA) and docosahexenoic acid (DHA) in placenta was significantly higher than that in maternal blood and umbilical cord blood; and the content of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) in umbilical cord blood was higher than that in maternal blood and placenta. All differences were significant (P<0.05). Conclusions Mothers preferentially transport long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (AA and DHA) through the placenta to meet the needs of fetal and neonatal growth and development.

Objective: To explore the value of implanted intensity-modulated bmchytherapy for recurred cervical carcinoma. Metheds: A total of 25 cases of recurred cervical carcinoma were enrolled into the trial group which were treated with pelvic implanted aftedoading intensity-modulated brachytherapy. The other 25 patients with recurred cervical carcinoma treated with routine brachytherapy during the same pedod were en-rolled into the control group. Results: There were 20 cases with CR and 5 cases with PR in the trial group, and 10 cases with CR, 7 cases with PR, 4 cases with SD and 4 cases with PD in the control group, with a signifi-cant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). In the trial group, there were 5 cases with vaginal-rectal fis-tula and 1 case with grade 3 enteritis. In the control group, there were 3 cases with vaginal-rectal fistula. Con-dusion: Pelvic implanted intensity-modulated brachytherapy for recurred cervical carcinoma is satisfactory with better short-term efficacy than that of the routine brachytherapy and tolerable side effects.

Objective Since there are significant variation of the dietary structure recent years in China,it is necessary to re-investigate the fatty acid composition of human breast milk for the presentation of the latest data of fatty acid composition in China. Methods Using a gas chromatography GC-2010,the composition of fatty acids was detected in the human colostrums and the mature breast milk(consecutively from postnatal day 1 to day 7 and from postnatal day 42)obtained from 62 healthy postpartum women in Shanghai and Chongqing,two big cities of China,from Jan to July,2008. Results The level of total fatty acid(TFA)tended to increase significantly from the colostrums to the mature breast milk. No significant difference in the level of TFA was found between two cities. The significantly higher monounsaturates(MUFA)level(44.06% vs. 33.85%,P ＜ 0.01)and lower linoleic acid(LA,C18 : 2n-6)level(18.43% vs. 27.62%,P ＜ 0.01)of the mature breast milk were observed in Chongqing women compared with those in Shanghai women. The docosahexenoic acid(DHA)level of the mature breast milk in Shanghai women was significantly higher than that in Chongqing women(0.41% vs. 0.29%,P ＜ 0.01). There was no significant difference in the level of arachidonic acid(AA,C20 : 4n-6)between two cities. Conclusions The fatty acid composition in human breast milk tends to vary with the extension of the lactation. There is significant difference in the fatty acid compositions in human breast milk between Shanghai and Chongqing owing to different dietary habits in the different regions of China.

Objective To understand the occurrence and the related risk factors of birth defects. Methods Descriptive analysis was conducted on birth detect surveillance in the infants during January 2008 to June 2014. Results A total of 777 cases of birth defect were detected in 73498 infants, and the incidence of birth defect was 1.06%. The 5 most common birth de-fects were congenital heart disease, multi ifnger (toe), hypospadias, cleft lip, and palate and deformity of external ear. Compared infants born with no birth defects, male, preterm, low birth weight, twin and multiple births and resident were statistically higher in infants with birth defects (P<0.05). The major risk factors of birth defects were the medication history, spontaneous abortion, gestational diabetes mellitus, and family history. Conclusions The incidence of birth defect can be reduced by providing good health care during pre-marriage and pregnant so as to decrease the occurrence of premature infants, twins and multiple births, and low birth weight as well as improving prenatal diagnosis and intensifying birth defects surveillance.

The Decoction showed marked effect on manykinds of Icterus Neonatorum,Estimation on the activi-ty of superoxide dimutase,lipoperoxide,enzymes ofRBC,were made through histochemical staining andresistance of RBC membrane.Results revealed thatthe remedy has distinctive protective action on cellmembrane of RBC.

BACKGROUND:With the deepening of bone tissue engineering research and bone metabolism understanding, it is a hotspot to analyze the blood supply and nutritional status of tissue-engineered bone.
OBJECTIVE:To compare different methods for evaluating smal vascular network distribution around the knee joint in rats in order to provide a guideline for the study of microvascular network in tissue-engineered bone.
METHODS:Eighteen Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups, with six rats in each group. Three commonly methods were used to evaluate the smal vascular network around the knee joint in rats:immunohistochemistry analysis, angiography analysis, and CT scans and reconstruction analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The microstructure of vascular network could be observed by immunohistochemistry, but the spatial distribution of vessels could not be evaluated. The spatial distribution of vessels could be showed by angiography and CT scans. However, some of micro vessels were showed unclearly by CT scans. The number of blood vessels detected by immunohistochemistry was (26.50±3.02) vessels, significantly higher than those detected by angiography and CT scans that were (14.12±1.47) and (9.00±1.79) vessels, respectively. Combination of immunohistochemistry and angiography can evaluate the microvascular network at microscopic and macroscopic levels, which can provide the whole information of the vascular network.

Objective: To understand the active screening of tuberculosis in schools in Guizhou province and analyze the results to provide reference for the prevention and control of tuberculosis in schools in Guizhou province. Methods: In 2017, the initiative screening and entrance examination were carried out among students in Guizhou in 2017, with "the provincial school tuberculosis screening questionnaire" issued by the provincial level.A total of 373 679 students(18.31%) from 290 schools(41.31%)were tested as strong positive by PPD test. Results: Rate of positive PPD skin test showed significant differences according to different types of school(χ2=679.62,P=0.00). the abnormal rate of X-ray chest had statistical significant difference between the students in boarding school or not(χ2=14.07,P=0.00), but had no statistical significant difference between the students in private schools and public schools(χ2=0.28,P=0.59). For the rate of suspicious symptom screening, statistical significant differences were found between the private schools and public schools(χ2=4.79,P=0.03) and boarding schools or not(χ2=23.47,P=0.00). PPD test screening was carried out among 166 691 students, 4 667 were tested as strong positive, 191 cases were found as tuberculosis (4.09%); X-ray chest X-ray screening of 104 024 people, abnormal chest radiograph of 298 people, 200 found that the number of tuberculosis cases, the detection rate was 67.11%. Symptom screening was carried out among 102 964 students, 2 272 had suspicious symptoms, 229 cases were pulmonary tuberculosis patients, the detection rate of 10.08%, three methods of screening for difference was statistically significant(χ2=262.44，P=0.00). Conclusion The school tuberculosis screening work in Guizhou province needs to be further improved, and the tuberculosis screening for college and boarding high school students should be strengthened to control the outbreak of school tuberculosis.
