0.05);Single factor analysis showed that,8 factors such as planned pregnancy,gender expectation of mother and father of spouses,relation of primiparas with mother and father of their spouses were independently related to depression in spouse of primiparas;multiple stepwise regression analysis revealed that,social support,books and media with postpartum health care knowledge,gender expectation of mother and father of spouses were main factors that related to stress in spouses of primiparas(?=-0.68,-0.15,-0.13).Conclusion:Spouses of primiparas experience the same medium-leveled stress as primiparas.The related factors were multifold and the main factors were social support,books and media with postpartum health care knowledge,gender expectation of mother and father of spouses.

Objective To establish a gene sequencing method for ABO blood group,to analyze the mu-tation sites at the DNA level in order to accurately identify ABO blood group.Methods Twenty blood sam-ples were selected,in which 18 samples were ABO normal blood group and 2 samples were the ABO subtype. Exons 6 and 7 of ABO blood group gene were amplified by sequence-specific primer PCR (PCR-SSP),and then the gene sequence was directly sequenced and analyzed by PCR,and the ABO blood group was identified by comparing with the ABO reference sequence.Results The gene sequencing results of 20 blood samples were consistent with the serological results.In 2 subtype samples,the genotype in 1 sample was BA.02/O.01 and its phenotype was B(A) subtype.C>G mutation occurred at position 700 of the 7th exon,which resulted in proline changing to alanine at position 234 during amino acid translation.The genotype of the other sample was AW.37/B.01 and the phenotype was AxB subtype.The position 940 of the 7th exon mutates from ade-nine to guanine,resulting in the mutation of lysine changing to glutamic acid at position 314 during protein translation.Conclusion A method of ABO blood group gene sequencing suitable for laboratory is estab-lished,which could accurately identify ABO blood group.

Asthma is characterized by chronic airway inflammation and airway hyper-responsiveness. However, the differences in pathophysiology and phenotypic symptomology make a diagnosis of "asthma" too broad hindering individualized treatment. Four asthmatic inflammatory phenotypes have been identified based on inflammatory cell profiles in sputum: eosinophilic, neutrophilic, paucigranulocytic, and mixed-granulocytic. Paucigranulocytic asthma may be one of the most common phenotypes in stable asthmatic patients, yet it remains much less studied than the other inflammatory phenotypes. Understanding of paucigranulocytic asthma in terms of phenotypic discrimination, distribution, stability, surrogate biomarkers, underlying pathophysiology, clinical characteristics, and current therapies is fragmented, which impedes clinical management of patients. This review brings together existing knowledge and ongoing research about asthma phenotypes, with a focus on paucigranulocytic asthma, in order to present a comprehensive picture that may clarify specific inflammatory phenotypes and thus improve clinical diagnoses and disease management.
