Objective To study influences of intervention in pregnant women with positive thyroid autoantibodies on the thyroid function of babies. Methods A total of 55 pregnant women were enrolled with positive thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) and/or thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) during prenatal checkup. They were randomly divided into two groups: intervening group( n= 36, newborn group A) was treated with levothyroxine ( L-T4 ), and non-intervening group ( n= 19, newborn group B) was not treated. 30 cases of pregnant women with negative thyroid autoantibodies served as a normal population control group (newborn group N). Serum TSH, TPOAb, TgAb, TT3, TT4, FT3 and FT4 were measured by high-sensitive immunochemiluminescent assay ,and urinary iodine was also examined in the pregnant women. Fetal plasma TSH, TT3, TT4, FT3, and FT4 levels were measured after cutting the umbilical cord from placenta, and repeated measurements were made by 3-4 weeks and 8-10 weeks postpartum. Results At baseline, serum TSH levels of the pregnant women in intervening and nonintervening groups were significantly higher than that in control group ( P<0.05 ). Non-intervening group had higher TSH and lower TT3, TT4, FT4 compared with the other two groups (P<0. 05 or P<0.01 ). The cord blood TSH levels of the neonates in both group B [(7.06 ± 1.31 ) mIU/L] and group A [(6.23 ± 1.26 ) mIU/L] were significantly higher than that of group N [(5.48±1. 17) mIU/L, P<0.01 and 0. 05]. By 3-4 weeks postpartum,the serum TSH level [(3.21±0.70)mIU/L] in group B was significantly higher than those in group N [(2.72±0.51)mIU/L] and group A [(2.78±0.42) mIU/L, all P<0.05]. The serum TSH level in group B [(2.99±0.57) mIU/L] was still higher than those in group N [(2.48±0.68) mIU/L] by 8 to 10 weeks postpartum (P<0.05 ). Multiple stepwise regression analysis revealed that TSH, TPOAb, and urine iodine levels of mothers were independently related to TSH of their infants. Conclusion When differences in thyroid function exist in pregnant women, these differences also reside in their offspring. The thyroid function in neonates correlates with both the thyroid autoantibodies and thyroid function of their mothers.

Platypnea orthodeoxia syndrome is associated with dyspnea and arterial oxygen desaturation accentuated by an upright posture. It can be secondary to an intracardiac shunt. We report a case of platypnea-orthodeoxia syndrome (POS) in a 58-year old male patient who had a pre-existing patent foramen ovale (PFO) and substantial pulmonary pathologies. He was successfully treated by percutaneous transcatheter closure of the PFO. Our case highlights the importance of recognition of this rare syndrome in patients who present with unexplained hy-poxia for whom transcatheter closure of the interatrial shunt can be safely carried out.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of oversized occluder on endothelialization post percutaneous closure of experimental atrial septal defect (ASD) in dogs.
METHODSASD was established with the help of transthoracic echocardiography in 18 dogs. ASD size was (6.0 ± 0.2) mm. Dogs were randomly divided into normal size group (implanted with 8 mm occlude, n = 9) and oversized group (implanted with 12 mm occluder, n = 9). Dogs were randomly killed at 3, 6 and 14 months after percutaneous closure. The endothelialization process on device surface was observed by scanning electron microscope.
RESULTSFour animals died around 1 month post procedure. Microscopic sections from normal group showed nearly complete endothelialization at 3 months after device implantation and complete endothelialization at 6 and 14 months after device implantation. While microscopic sections showed lack of endothelialization at 3 months post implantation, nearly endothelialization at 6 months, and complete endothelialization at 14 months after device implantation in oversized group.
CONCLUSIONIncomplete endothelialization of occluder surface is observed at 6 months after implantation of an oversized ASD occluder device in this model.

Objective:To explore the effect of sports training guidance based on Internet platform on the limb function and quality of life in home rehabilitation of stroke hemiplegic patients.Methods:Eighty patients with stroke and hemiplegia admitted to Beijing Rehabilitation Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from June 2018 to December 2019 were selected and divided into observation group and control group with 40 cases in each group by random digits table method. The control group was given routine rehabilitation training. In addition to the regular rehabilitation training, the observation group was supplemented with home rehabilitation based on the WeChat platform for modified constraint-induced movement therapy. The limb motor function Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) score, Upper Extremity Function Test (UEFT) score, Stroke-Specific Quality of Life scale (SS-QOL) score before and after intervention, and patients′ satisfaction and cares′ satisfaction score were compared between the two groups.Results:There was no significant difference in the score of FMA, UEFT, SS-QOL before intervention between the two groups( P>0.05). After discharge, the FMA score, UEFT score and physical function, physiological function, mental health, social function of SS-QOL score were (68.87±6.64),(72.38±7.33), (35.28±4.13), (36.55±4.23), (37.22±3.84), (38.23±3.44) points in the observation group and (55.25±6.20), (61.24±6.47), (28.72±4.56), (30.85±5.30), (31.28±4.63), (31.02±5.16) points in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant between the two groups( t values were 5.316-9.482, P<0.01). During the nursing period, the patients′ satisfaction and cares′ satisfaction score were 92.50%(37/40), 87.50%(35/40) in the observation group and 72.50%(29/40), 67.50%(27/40) in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant between the two groups( χ 2 values were 5.541, 4.588, P<0.05). Conclusions:The home rehabilitation based on the Internet platform for modified constraint-induced movement therapy helps to promote the recovery of limb motor function in stroke hemiplegic patients, improve the nursing satisfaction of patients and their families, and has a positive effect on improving the quality of life of patients.
