Objective:To analyze routine blood test results of pregnant women at different periods of pregnancy and evaluate the health status of pregnant women.Methods:A total of 240 pregnant women with anemia who underwent antenatal care or delivery in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, The People's Hospital of Yuhuan from January 2018 to June 2019 were included in this study. They were divided into three groups according to different periods of pregnancy with 80 women in each group: first trimester, second trimester, and third trimester. Additional 80 non-pregnant women who concurrently received health examination were included as controls. Routine blood test results were compared among groups. The incidence of microcytic anemia and macrocytic anemia at different periods of pregnancy was determined.Results:The incidence of microcytic anemia in the third trimester group [3.75% (3/80)] was significantly lower than that in the first trimester group [26.25% (21/80)] and the second trimester group [25.00% (20/80), χ2 = 15.882, 14.675, both P < 0.05]. The incidence of macrocytic anemia in the third trimester group [22.50% (18/80)] was significantly higher than that in the first trimester group [1.25% (1/80)] and the second trimester group [3.75% (3/80), χ2 = 17.260, 12.333, both P < 0.05]. Red blood cell count and hemoglobin and hematocrit levels in the peripheral blood of pregnant women in the first, second and third trimester groups were significantly lower compared with the control group ( t = 8.579, 16.781, 13.964, 10.154, 15.891 and 15.512, all P < 0.05). Red blood cell count, hemoglobin and hematocrit levels in the second trimester group were significantly lower than those in the other three groups (all P < 0.05). In the first, second and third trimester groups, white blood cell count and percentage of neutrophils were increased, and platelet count was decreased ( t = 23.085, 24.187, 27.941, 15.722, 22.153, 13.277, 31.517, 32.901, 32.227, all P < 0.05) compared with the control group. The increases in white blood cell count and percentage of neutrophils in the second trimester group were significantly greater than those in the first and third trimester groups, and platelet count in the third trimester group was significantly lower than that in the first and second trimester groups (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Monitoring routine blood indexes can help assess the health status of pregnant women. Adjusting nutrition program in time can decrease the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes.

Objective To determine the main reproductive performance of six SPF mice and rats preserved in our laboratory, including C57BL/6, BALB/c, NIH, KM, ICR mice and SD rats.Methods Inbred mice mated with full sib and random mating.Meanwhile, closed colony animals were bred by cross circular mating.These indexes of reproductive performance were measured in the six kinds of animals during the first birth to the fourth birth, i.e.the average litter size (ALZ), average baby number reared ( ABN) and average weaning number ( AWN), and weaning rate ( WA) were calculated.Meanwhile, the initial mating age in days, initial bearing age in days, first gestation and intervals were measured.Results The ALZ of inbred mice were 6 to 7.The reproductive indexes were basically stable in the first 3 births, however, the various data were dramatically declined in the fourth birth ( P<0.05 ) .The WA of BALB/c mice were 98%to 99%, and that of C57BL/6 mice were 96%to 98%.The ALZ of closed colony animals were 12 to 15, and significantly increased in the second and third births compared with that of the first birth (P<0.05), then was significantly reduced ( P<0.05) .The WA maintained at 98%to 99%in the NIH, KM and ICR mice.In contrast, The WA of SD rats was slightly lower, reaching 95%to 97%.The initial mating age in days of mice was between 70 d to 80 d.The initial bearing age in days and first gestation of rats were less than that of inbred mice, the initial bearing age in days and first gestation of closed colony rats were 136.3 d and 27.7 d, respectively.The pregnancy interval of inbred mice was between 34 d to 40 d,the pregnancy interval of closed colony mice was between 25.5 d to 28.7 d, the pregnancy interval of rats was between 32.8 d to33.8 d.Conclusions The 6 mouse and rat strains have a higher reproductive performance, and the data obtained in this study provide a basis for commercialized production of mice and rats in southern areas of China, and for establishment of rodent experimental animal resource.

Objective To explore the role of oxidative stress in the epithelial-tomesenchymal transition (EMT) of tubular epithelial cells and the protective effect of probucol in rat model with diabetic nephropathy (DN). Methods Thirty SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group, DN group, probucol treatment group (supplemented 1% probucol dietary). Twentyfour hours urinary protein excretion (UTP) was measured at the 3rd, the 8th and the 12th week respectively. The biochemical indicators including blood glucose (BG), lipids [triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC)], low-density lipoprotein (LDL), serum creatinine (Scr), creatinine clearance rate (Ccr),kidney tissue malondialdehyde (MDA) level and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) activity were assessed at the end of the 12th week in all groups. The renal pathological changes were evaluated by hematoxylin & eosin (HE) and Masson staining. The protein expression of specificity protein 1 (Sp1), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and E-cadherin was also detected and analyzed by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Results Compared with the normal control group,the BG, TC, LDL, Scr, 24 h UTP and MDA level of renal tissue increased significantly and the Ccr reduced in the rats of DN group (all P＜0.01). The pathological scores and the expression of Sp1 and α-SMA in renal tissue were higher in the DN animals than that in the other animals (all P＜0.01), the expression of E-cadherin downregulated significantly in the DN animals (P＜0.01). The MDA level of renal tissue was positively correlated to the expression of α-SMA and Sp1 protein in DN group (r=0.896, P＜0.01; r=0.862, P＜0.01, respectively), and negatively correlated to the expression of E-cadherin protein (r=-0.673, P＜0.01). In the diabetic animals treated with probucol, the Scr, 24 h UTP, pathological scores, MDA content,expression of Sp1 and α-SMA in renal tissue were lower than those in the diabetic animals (all P＜0.01). The Ccr and the expression of E-cadherin upregulated obviously (all P＜0.01). Conclusion Oxidative stress plays an important role in the EMT process of tubular epithelial cells. Probucol can slow down renal disease progression in DN rats through anti-oxidant, downregulating the expression of Sp1 protein and inhibiting the renal tubular EMT.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of excessive platelet (Plt) recovery at the first time of achieving morphologic complete remission (CR) after induction chemotherapy with minimal residual disease (MRD) and the clinical features of acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Methods:The clinical data of newly-treated 57 AML patients (except for acute promyelocytic leukemia) who achieved CR after induction chemotherapy in Jinjiang People's Hospital from January 2016 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 57 newly diagnosed adult AML patients were divided into excessive Plt recovery group (Plt recovery>350×10 9/L) and normal Plt recovery group [Plt recovery: (100-350)×10 9/L] according to the Plt recovery. Meanwhile, the MRD was analyzed by using multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) in patients achieving CR after receiving 1 course of standard treatment regimen or 1-2 courses of demethylation drugs combined with pre-conditioning regimen. The clinical features and negative rate of MRD between the two groups were compared. Results:Among 57 CR patients, 31 (54.4%) patients had CR with excessive Plt recovery and MFC-MRD negative rate was 67.7% (21/31); 26 (45.6%) had CR with normal Plt recovery and MFC-MRD negative rate was 38.5% (10/26); and the difference in the proportion of MRD negative patients between the both groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 4.89, P = 0.027). There were no statistically differences in the proportions of patients with different gender, age, WBC at initial diagnosis, Plt, chemotherapy regimen and risk degree classification between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:In AML patients, excessive Plt recovery at the first time of achieving morphologic CR after induction chemotherapy is associated with negative MRD, which has a certain value in the judgement of therapeutic effect.

Objective:To introduce the application of sleeve reconstruction with bovine pericardium in the reoperation of Behcet's disease with advanced aortic annulus invasion, and to report our experience and the early outcomes.Methods:From August 2012 to May 2022, 19 patients with Behcet's disease developed perivalvular leakage after previous surgery underwent aortic root replacement. They were analyzed retrospectively. Fifteen out of 19 cases underwent conventional aortic root replacement, 4 cases with advanced aortic annulus invasion underwent sleeve reconstruction with bovine pericardium. The medical records were reviewed. Demographic and perioperative data were collected, which included the aortic crossclamp time, intraoperative RBC consumption, length of ICU stay, and major postoperative complications.Postoperative follow-up was accomplished through telephone visit.Results:The median age was 39(36, 42) years old. Five were female. The median interval of diagnosis of perivalvular leak from index surgery was 5(3, 14)months. There was no perioperative death. Fifteen patients underwent conventional aortic root replacement. One patient had intraoperative ECMO impant due to low cardiac output as well as another one had IABP support. CABG was performed in 5 patients. One patient underwent permanent pacemaker implantation after surgery. The median follow-up time for the 15 patients was 55.00(29.25, 71.25)months. Two patients were lost during follow-up. One patient died of infection 3 years after surgery. One patient developed perivalvular leak. Two patient developed distal anastomotic pseudoaneurysm which need reintervention. The median follow-up time for the 4 patients with sleeve reconstruction was 5.5(5, 11.25)months. One patient underwent tracheotomy. Perivalvular leakage and pseudoaneurysm were not appreciated. Four patients were in NYHA class Ⅰ-Ⅱ.Conclusion:The sleeve reconstruction with bovine pericardium is safe and effective in reoperation treating patients with Behcet's disease and advanced aortic annulus invasion.
