Objective:
To understand the situation of neglect of preschool children in the urban area of Xi an under the background of multi child policy, so as to provide a reference for making effective prevention.
Methods:
In Novmber 2022, according to the multi stage stratified cluster sampling principle, 2 450 parents of children aged 3-6 years were randomly selected from 7 urban areas of Xi an to participate in the questionnaire survey. A questionnaire survey was conducted using the "Neglect Evaluation Norms of 3-6 Years Old (Preschool) Children in Urban Areas of China". SPSS 18.0 software was used for statistical description, Chi square test and variance analysis.
Results:
The total neglect rate of preschool children in the urban area of Xi an was 29.0% and the total neglect score was (37.58±8.44). There was no statistical difference in the neglect status of children in different grade groups ( χ 2/ F =1.61, 2.98, P >0.05). The neglect score of boys was higher than girls ( t =2.45, P <0.05). There was no statistical difference in the neglect rate and neglect score of boys and girls in other levels ( P >0.05); except for the significant difference in the neglect degree of medical treatment, education and safety ( t =2.01, 2.28, 2.02, P <0.05). The rate and score of neglect in multi-child families were higher than only-child families ( χ 2/ t = 13.68, -4.54, P <0.05). There were significant differences in the rate and degree of neglect of children with different birth order, which were "third and fourth-born>second-born>first-born" ( χ 2/ F = 10.84 , 2.79, P <0.05). The neglect rate and score of "single parent family" were significantly higher than that of "nuclear family" and "three-generation family" ( χ 2/ F =4.78, 2.79, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The neglect situation of preschool children in urban area of Xi an is still serious, especially in multi-child families. It should actively explore the risk factors and formulate effective intervention measures.

Immunotherapy has become a highly promising paradigm for cancer treatment. Herein, a chemo-immunotherapy was developed by encapsulating chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX) and Toll-like receptor 7 agonist imiquimod (IMQ) in low molecular weight heparin (LMWH)-d--tocopheryl succinate (TOS) micelles (LT). In this process, LMWH and TOS were conjugated by ester bond and they were not only served as the hydrophilic and hydrophobic segments of the carrier, but also exhibited strong anti-metastasis effect. The direct killing of tumor cells mediated by DOX-loaded micelles (LT-DOX) generated tumor-associated antigens, initiating tumor-specific immune responses in combination with IMQ-loaded micelles (LT-IMQ). Furthermore, the blockade of immune checkpoint with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) antibody further elevated the immune responses by up-regulating the maturation of DCs as well as the ratios of CD8 CTLs/T and CD4 T/T. Therefore, such a multifunctional strategy exhibited great potential for inhibiting the growth of orthotopic and metastatic breast cancer.
