Objective To investigate the effects of preeclampsia serum on activity and invasive ability of cultured cytotrophoblasts of first trimester of pregnancy. Methods Cytotrophoblasts of normal 6 to 8-week pregnancy were cultured by tissue explants adherent method,and were incubated with serum of women with normal pregnancy(normal group)and preeclampsia(preeclampsia group),respectively for 24 h.The activity of cytotrophoblasts was examined by CCK-8,invasive ability was determined by Transwell invasion assay,and expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and PAI-1 mRNA was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR). Results The activity and invasive ability of cytotrophoblasts in preeclampsia group were lower than those in normal group(P<0.05,P<0.01).Compared with normal group,the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 mRNA of cytotrophoblasts was significantly lower(P<0.01),and the expression of PAI-1 mRNA was significantly higher(P<0.01).In both groups,the expression of MMP-2 mRNA was negatively related to that of PAI-1 mRNA(r=-0.985,P<0.01;r=-0.933,P<0.05),while there was no correlationship between the expression of MMP-9 mRNA and that of PAI-1 mRNA. Conclusion The preeclampsia serum may affect the invasive ability of cytotrophoblasts by regulating the expression of MMP-2,MMP-9 and PAI-1.

ObjectiveTo understand the current situation of anxiety level and traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） nursing needs among residents during the COVID-19 epidemic， and to discuss the relationship between them，so as to provide references for maintaining their mental health. MethodsA total of 560 residents were recruited using convenience sampling method， and the selected individuals completed three questionnaires based on online platform， including self-designed general information questionnaire， Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale （GAD-7）， and TCM nursing needs questionnaire. Then the correlation between anxiety level and TCM nursing needs was analyzed by Spearman correlation test. ResultsA total of 552 valid questionnaires were collected. The results of GAD-7 showed that the total score was （11.04±3.72）， and average score of each item was （1.58±0.53）. There were 328 cases （59.4%） without anxiety symptoms， 180 cases （32.6%） with mild anxiety， 33 cases （6.0%） with moderate anxiety， and 11 cases （2.0%） with severe anxiety. The analysis of TCM nursing needs questionnaire showed that the total score was （21.59±7.92）， and dominated by the needs of medical knowledge （2.90±1.15） and TCM dietary care （2.82±1.13）. The item score and total score of TCM nursing needs questionnaire of residents during the COVID-19 epidemic were positively correlated with GAD-7 total score （r=0.240~0.331， P<0.01）. ConclusionResidents suffer from different levels of anxiety during the COVID-19 epidemic， and TCM nursing needs is on the rise， indicating that the anxiety level of residents is correlated with the needs of TCM nursing.
