Objective To understand the physical activity of early stage pregnant women and explore its influential factors. Methods From June 2015 to June 2016, 2122 pregnant women with early pregnancy card in Ma An Shan Maternal and Child Health Hospital were selected and surveyed with a questionnaire. The Physical Activity Questionnaire was used to understand the physical activity of pregnant women in their early pregnancy. Analysis of variance and t-test were used to describe the distribution of energy expenditures of physical activity of pregnant women with different demographic characteristics, and multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing the energy expenditure of their physical activity. Result The duration of activities of sleep and sitting type was (16.56 ± 3.54) h, accounting for 83.38%of total activity time;the energy consumption value was (17.17±5.59) METs·h;mild physical activity time was (2.62±1.86) h, accounting for total time. 13.19%and the energy consumption value was (6.06±4.43) METs·h;the average time of moderate to severe physical activity was (0.68±0.93) h, accounting for 3.42%of total physical activity time, and the energy consumption value was (3.22±4.58) METs·h. In the univariate analysis, the energy expenditures of physical activity between the different groups (t=-3.551), education level (F=1.347), and occupation type (F=1.485) were different, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). In multiple linear regression analysis, different occupational types and education were the energy expenditure levels of physical activity during early pregnancy. Influencing factors (P<0.05). Conclusion Pregnant women have longer periods of sleep and meditation during the first trimester, and shorter duration of physical activity than mild and above;the energy expenditure of physical activity during the first trimester of pregnancy is affected by the occupational type and educational level of the pregnant woman.

Objective:To investigate the developmental behavior of early term infants at 6 months and its difference from that of complete full-term infants.Methods:A healthy maternal and infant birth cohort in maanshan city, established in Maanshan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from June 2015 to June 2016. Birth outcomes were copied from the hospital electronic medical record system after delivery. The Chinese Ages and Stages Questionnaires was used to assess developmental behavior. The chi-square test and multivariate unconditional logistic regression model were used to analyze the differences in the behavioral development of early and full term infants.Results:The birth rate of early term infants was 24.74% (500/2 021). The detection rates of communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem solving and individual-social areas in early term infants were 2.1%, 3.2%, 6.1%, 6.3% and 2.7%, respectively. The detection rate of problem-solving area in early term infants was significantly higher than that in the full-term infants (6.3% vs. 3.7%, χ 2=5.42, P<0.05). After controlling for confounding factors, compared with full-term infants, the risk of problem-solving area in early infants was significantly increased ( OR=1.65, 95%CI:1.01-2.70, P<0.05). Conclusion:The risk of behavioral retardation in Early term infants is significantly higher than that in full-term infants, and long-term follow-up and appropriate early development promotion interventions are needed to improve their quality of life.

Urorectal septum malformation sequence (URSMS) is a rare congenital complex malformation characterized by severe abnormalities in the urinary, reproductive and digestive systems. It is difficult to diagnose URSMS by prenatal ultrasound due to its complex and variable manifestations. This paper reported a twin with partial URSMS. Prenatal ultrasound findings included pelvic "trilobe" cystic masses, sacrococcygeal hemivertebral malformations, imperforate anus, and transient ascites. Postnatal examination confirmed the diagnosis of URSMS, as the baby girl was born with anal atresia. Her colon, urethra, and vagina converged and formed a common tract with a single perineal opening. The baby died after her parents' refusal to surgical treatment.

Objective:To examine the relationship between pre-pregnancy BMI, gestational diabetes (GDM) and different indicators of childhood obesity at the age of 4.Methods:Based on Ma’anshan Birth Cohort Study, singleton children who were born in Ma’anshan of Anhui province from October 2013 to April 2015, were followed for 4 years, consecutively. During the first questionnaire survey, data including pre-pregnancy weight, height and socio-demography were collected. During 24-28 week of gestation, 75 g oral glucose tolerance test was conducted for them. Childhood height, weight, waist circumference and body composition were measured at the age of 4. Comparisons between groups were performed using chi-square test, analysis of variance or t-test. The relationship between pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity, GDM and childhood obesity-related characteristics were analyzed by logistic regression model and generalized linear model analysis. Results:The prevalence rates of overweight and obesity in children at the age of 4 were 13.08% and 6.03%, respectively. After adjustment for characteristics related to mothers and their children, significantly increased risk of obesity ( OR=3.27, 95% CI: 2.15-4.98), larger waist circumference ( OR=2.32, 95% CI: 1.72-3.14) and higher waist-to-weight ratio ( OR=2.29, 95% CI: 1.73-3.02) were seen in the offspring of women with pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity. Body composition (skeletal muscle, body fat, body fat percentage) of the offspring were strongly correlated with pre-pregnancy overweight/obesity of the mothers ( P<0.05). Maternal GDM was associated with higher risk of childhood obesity ( OR=1.78, 95% CI: 1.14-2.79), on mothers without GDM during pregnancy. However, neither larger waist circumference, or higher waist-to-weight ratio seemed to increase the risk. Moreover, maternal GDM was not associated with body composition measures (skeletal muscle, body fat, body fat percentage). Conclusion:Pre-pregnancy BMI and maternal GDM were independent risk factors for obesity in 4-year-old children, and pre-pregnancy BMI was correlated with various indicators of body composition in children.

Objective:To analyze the associations between prenatal and 1-year-old exposure to antibiotics and allergic symptoms in children aged 6-11 months and 18-23 months.Methods:In this study, a prospective birth cohort study was adopted. A total of 2 122 pregnant women were enrolled in Maternal and Child Health Care Center of Ma′anshan from June 2015 to June 2016, and they were followed up from the beginning of pregnancy to children′s 24 months of age. Excluding 564 pairs of mothers and children who were lost to follow-up or with incomplete information on the use of antibiotics and children′s allergic symptoms, a total of 1 558 pairs of mothers and children were included in the analysis of this study. The parents and children′s general demographic information, early-life antibiotic exposure and other data were collected, the information about allergic symptoms in children aged 6-11 months and 18-23 months were investigated by reference to the "International Study of Asthma and Allergies in Childhood (ISAAC)". The univariate and multivariate binary unconditional logistic regression model was used to was used to estimate associations between the effects of early-life antibiotic exposure on allergic symptoms in 2-year-old children.Results:The antibiotic usage rate of pregnant women during pregnancy was 3.4% (53), and the antibiotic usage rates of children between 0 to 2 months, 3 to 5 months, and 6 to 11 months were separately 15.2%(237), 15.5%(242) and 17.3%(269). The total prevalence of allergic diseases in children aged 6 to 11 months was 24.1% (375 children), and the total prevalence of allergic diseases in children aged 18 to 23 months was 22.0% (342 children). After adjust parental (maternal) education level, family monthly income per capita, parental (maternal) allergy history, parental (maternal) age at pregnancy, mother′s Body Mass Index (BMI) before pregnancy, exposure to second-hand smoke during pregnancy, delivery method, child gender, birth weight, preterm birth, the use of antibiotics when children were 3-5 months old ( RR=1.61,95% CI:1.19-2.17) and 6-11 months old ( RR=1.43,95% CI:1.06-1.93) were the risk factors for allergic symptoms at 6-11 months of age; and the use of antibiotics when children were 0-2 months old (RR=1.41, 95% CI: 1.03-1.95), 3-5 months old ( RR=1.54, 95% CI: 1.12-2.11) and 6-11 months old ( RR=1.58, 95% CI: 1.17-2.14) were the risk factors for allergic symptoms at 18-23 months of age. Conclusion:Children′s exposure to antibiotics within 1 year of age was a risk factor for allergic symptoms in children aged 6-11 months and 18-23 months, children should avoid unnecessary antibiotic use in infancy.
