Objective To explore the clinical diagnosis and treatment of multiple organ failure(MOF)in obstetrics.Methods 17 cases of MOF in obstetrics were studied retrospectively.Results Postpartum hemorrhage,severe regnancy-induced hypertension syndrome(PIH),amniotic fluid embolism,and placental abruption were the major factors leading to MOF from the 17 cases.The blood coagulation dysfunction and the renal failure were the most common organ dysfunction.8 cases died and the fatality rate was 47.06%.Conclusion The key to lowering the fatality rate of MOF is to prevent and treat the primary diseases,diagnose and treat blood coagulation dysfunction and renal failure early.

A novel amide alkaloid,bursatamide A(1),featuring an unprecedented propyl-hexahydronaphthalene carbon frame-work,was isolated from the infrequently studied sea hare Bursatella leachi,alongside a new 3-phenoxypropanenitrile alkaloid,bursatellin B(2),and twelve known compounds.The structures of 1 and 2 were elucidated through comprehensive spectroscopic data analyses,while their relative and absolute configurations(ACs)were established through total synthesis and a series of quantum chem-ical calculations,including calculated electronic circular dichroism(ECD)spectra,optical rotatory dispersion(ORD)methods,and DP4+probability analyses.Bursatamide A(1)demonstrated inhibitory effects against the human pathogenic bacteria Listeria monocyt-ogenes and Vibrio cholerae.Erythro-bursatellin B(21),a diastereoisomer of 2,exhibited notable antibacterial activity against the fish pathogenic bacterium Streptococcus parauberis FP KSP28,with an MIC90 value of 0.0472 μg·mL-1.
