To analyze maternal and neonatal complications among late preterm birth cases and to investigate risk factors of late preterm birth. Methods This was a retrospective analysis of 258 late preterm cases (late preterm group) born in Peking University First Hospital from January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2010. Maternal comorbidity and complications, delivery modes, and neonatal complications of these 258 late preterm infants were compared with 308 term cases (term group) during the same period. Statistical analysis was performed usingχ2 test, Fisher's exact probability test, t test and logistic regression. Results In Peking University First Hospital, late preterm births accounted for 3.9%(258/6 695) of live births and 60.1%(258/429) of preterm births. The incidence of the following maternal complications among the late preterm group was higher than that among term group(all P<0.05): severe pre-eclampsia [7.4%(19/258) vs 1.0%(3/308), χ2=15.35]; preterm rupture of membrane [42.6%(110/258) vs 15.3%(47/308), χ2=52.49];cervical insufficiency [1.9%(5/258) vs 0.0%(0/308), Fisher's exact test];placenta previa[3.5%(9/258) vs 0.6%(2/308), Fisher's exact test] and placental abruption [2.7%(7/258) vs 0.3%(1/308), Fisher's exact test]. Severe pre-eclampsia was the major risk factor leading to late preterm birth. The incidence of the following neonatal complications among the late preterm group was higher than that among term group (all P<0.05):respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) [11.6%(30/258) vs 1.6%(5/308), χ2=24.22]; hyperbilirubinemia [64.3%(166/258) vs 39.6%(122/308),χ2=34.36];electrolyte disturbance [12.8%(33/258) vs 1.6(95/308),χ2=27.96];hypothermia [7.0%(18/258) vs 2.9%(9/308),χ2=5.08];infectious pneumonia[13.6%(35/258) vs 3.2%(10/308), χ2=20.43]; leukoencephalopathy [3.1%(8/258) vs 0.3%(1/308), χ2=5.25]; low body temperature [18.6%(48/258) vs 3.6%(11/308),χ2=33.98] and neonatal asphyxia [6.2%(16/258) vs 1.0%(3/308),χ2=11.86]. The incidence of the following neonatal complications among late preterm infants born at<35 weeks gestation was higher than that among late preterm infants born at≥35 weeks gestation (all P<0.05):NRDS [30.4%(14/46) vs 7.5%(16/212) ,χ2=19.26];hyperbilirubinemia [91.3%(42/46) vs 58.5%(124/212), χ2=17.74]; electrolyte disturbance [21.7%(10/46) vs 10.8%(23/212), χ2=4.02]; intracranial hemorrhage [8.7%(4/46) vs 1.9%(4/212),χ2=3.88];leukoencephalopathy [10.9%(5/46) vs 1.4%(3/212),χ2=8.32] and neonatal asphyxia [15.2%(7/46) vs 4.2%(9/212), χ2=6.05]. Conclusions Severe pre-eclampsia is the major risk factor leading to late preterm birth. The incidence of complications among late preterm infants is higher than that among term infants. If a pregnancy has to be terminated because of maternal disorders, the pregnancy period should be extended to 35 weeks if it permits.

Objective To investigate the effect of Zidan decoction containing serum on endometrial receptivity in uterine immunity environment,and then to discuss if it's effect on endometrial receptivity through its controlling the expression of cell factors which related to endometrial receptivity.Methods Mice's endometrium tissue samples and uterine Natural Killer (UNK) cells were obtained from pregnant mice on gd 4.5 days and gd 12.5 days.After endometrial glandular epithelial cells,endometrial stromal cells and UNK cells were separated through primary culture,epithelial cells and endometrial stromal cells at rate of 1 ∶ 1 a certain concentration UNK were mixed together and highly purified-cultured.Different concentrations of Zidan decoction was acted on the culture solution.FBS,black and aspirin control group were setup for contrast.The expression of LIF and VEGF which influenced by Zidan decoction in the immunity environment was assayed by Realtime-PCR.Results The expression of LIF and VEGF was significantly increased in the immunity environment of uterine (in 10% Zidan decoction group,10% aspirin group and 10% blank control group:LIF was 2.10±0.20,1.98±0.14,0.90±0.05 separately,and VEGF was 3.17±0.31,2.52±0.09,0.92±0.06respectively,P<0.05).Conclusion Zidan decoction could improve endometrial receptivity by increasing the expression of cell factor which related to endometrial receptivity with the help ofUNK paracrine.

Objective To explore risk factors for coronary artery aneurysms (CAA) in children with Kawasaki disease (KD),and reduce the rate of serious sequelae of cardiovascular diseases.Methods All the patients were diagnosed as KD in Children’s Hospital Affiliated to Medical College of Zhejiang University from January 2009 to January 2014.A total of 679 cases was included,and 42 with concurrent CAA,181 with concurrent coronary artery expansion (CAD),and 456 without coronary artery damage cases (non-coronary artery lesion,NCAL).Coronary artery damage was related to factors such as gender,age,fever,white blood cell count (WBC),hemoglobin (Hb),platelet count (PLT),erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),C-reactive protein (CRP),alanine aminotransferase,serum potassium,plasma amino terminal brain natriuretic peptide precursor (NT-proBNP),and acrylic ball resistance.SPSS 18.0 software package was used for risk factor analysis.Qualitative data using chi-square test,was used to analyze the high risk factors of CAA group,and logistic multivariate regression analysis was also used.Results Chi-square test showed that male,with febrile days > 14 d,NT-proBNP ≥ 1 000 ng/L,immunoglobulin resistance was more likely to have KD concurrent CAA (P < 0.05).Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that male [OR =4.092,95% CI (1.514,11.060),P =0.004],febrile days >14 d [OR =12.436,95% CI (4.599,33.631),P =0.000],NT-proBNP≥ 1 000 ng/L [OR =3.305,95% CI (1.401,7.794),P =0.005],and immunoglobulin resistance [OR =3.842,95 % CI (1.562,9.453),P =0.000] were independent risk factors for KD concurrent CAA.Conclusions Male children,febrile days > 14 d,NT-proBNP≥ 1 000 ng/L,and immunoglobulin resistance were independent risk factors of CAA.

To improve the students'! comprehensive quality and cultivate their innovative medical talents, we applied different forms of discussion teaching in different stages of the students. In the course of theory, the form of short discussion was adopted to improve the students'! interest and concentration. In preclinical practice stage, the method of problem centered discussion was used to consolidate the profes-sional knowledge of the students. Discussion in the clinical practice was based on the actual problem of diagnosis and treatment, in order to cultivate the students'!clinical thinking. Through the diversified practice of discussion teaching with positive teaching evaluation, students'!interest in oral and maxillofacial surgery and the quality of teaching were improved.

Objective:
To investigate the trends in incidence of stroke in Jindong District, Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2022, so as to provide to the evidence for improving the stroke control strategy.
Methods:
The incidence of stroke in Jindong District from 2016 to 2022 was collected through the Zhejiang Chronic Disease Monitoring Information System, and standardized by the data of the Chinese National Population Census in 2010. The gender-, age- and subtype-specific incidence of stroke was calculated, and the trends in stroke incidence were investigated with average annual percent change (AAPC).
Results:
A total of 9 159 stroke cases were reported in Jindong District from 2016 to 2022, with crude incidence of 386.52/105 and standardized incidence of 276.75/105. The crude incidence of stroke appeared a tendency towards a rise (AAPC=3.704%, 95%CI: 0.792%-6.700%, P<0.05), while the standardized incidence showed no significant changing patterns (P>0.05). The crude incidence of stroke was significantly higher among men than among women (438.69/105 vs. 334.66/105; χ2=14.028, P<0.05), and the standardized incidence of stroke was significantly higher among men than among women (316.58/105 vs. 237.31/105; χ2=6.985, P<0.05). The crude incidence of stroke appeared a tendency towards a rise with age(χ2=5 290.180, P<0.05), and the crude incidence of stroke appeared a tendency towards a decline with age among residents at ages of 45 to 64 years (AAPC=-9.135%, 95%CI: -15.003% to -2.861%, P<0.05), while no significant changing patterns were found in the crude incidence of stroke among residents at other age groups (P>0.05). The crude incidence of ischemic stroke was significantly higher than that of hemorrhagic stroke (306.08/105 vs. 76.89/105; χ2=137.184, P<0.05).
Conclusions
The incidence of stroke appeared a tendency towards a rise in Jindong District from 2016 to 2022, with ischemic stroke as the predominant subtype. Male and middle-aged and elderly populations should be given a high priority for stroke control.
