Objectives To investigate the closing time of patent foramen ovale in newborns and infants in order to provide appropriate follow-up time points.Methods From September 1,2010 to April 30,2011,131 of l 202 full-term infants with patent foramen ovale were finished follow up at 3,6 and 12 months of age in Beijing Children's Hospital,Capital Medical University.If the foramen ovale was not closed at 12 months of age,the patients were followed up until two years of age.The closing time and the effects of complicated patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) were analyzed statistically using two independent t test,Chi-square and trend Chi square tests.Results Of the 131 full-term infants with patent foramen ovale,72 were males,and 59 were females.The foramen ovale size in neonatal period was not statistically different between males and females [(2.94 ±0.86) vs (2.95 ± 0.92) mm,t=0.641,P=0.964].The foramen ovale closing rate at 3 months was 21.4％ (28/131),67.9％ (89/131) at 6 months,and 95.4％ (125/131) at 12 months.The rate of foramen ovale closing decreased with larger foramen ovale at 3,6 and 12 months of age (x2trend were 42.930,101.050 and 63.260,all P＜0.05).Six patients with patent foramen ovale at 12 months of age were followed up until 2 years of age:two cases with foramen ovale ＜5.0 mm in the neonatal period were closed,one of two cases with foramen ovale ≥5.0 but ＜6.0 mm was closed,and one of two cases with foramen ovale ≥ 6.0 mm was closed.Of the 131 cases,121 were simple patent foramen ovale,and l0 were complicated with PDA.There were no significant difference in neonatal foramen ovale size between children with simple patent foramen ovale and those with PDA [(2.95 ±0.88) vs (2.82±0.83) mm,t=0.782,P=0.649].The closing rates in the simple patent foramen ovale group at 3,6,and 12 months of age were 21.5％ (26/121),57.9％ (55/95) and 87.5％ (35/40),respectively,and showed no significant difference from those with PDA (2/10,6/8 and 1/2,x2=0.012,0.946 and 1.536,all P＞0.05).In the simple patent foramen ovale group,the closing rate at 3 months was less than that at 6 months and 12 months 0x2 were 10.410 and 62.515,both P＜0.01).There was no difference in the closing rate in patients with PDA at 3,6 and 12 months (x2=5.748,P＞0.05).Conclusions Asymptomatic patent foramen ovale with a foramen ovale ＜5.0 mm may not require follow-up.But patients with a foramen ovale ≥ 5.0 mm,even asymptomatic,should be followed up using thoracic echocardiography at 2 years,and further follow-up is required if unclosed.

Objective To investigate the incidence of vulvovaginal candidiasis(VVC)in the third trimester,and the effect on the of perinatal outcome.Methods Vaginal discharge samples of 300 gravida were examined and cultured for fungus.According to the clinical feature,the patients were divided into slight VVC group and heavy VVC group.The termination of pregnancy and perinatal outcome were recorded 42 days after delivery.Results The incidence of VVC was 34%.There was significantly higher prevalence of premature rupture of membrane(PROM),afterbirth adherence,premature labor,break of perinaeum when intrapartum,disruption of wound after intrapartum and infection of newborn in the group of heavy VVC,with significant difference as compared with non-VVC group (P＜0.01)but with no difference in puerperal infection(P＞0.05).Conclusion Heavy VVC is disadvantageousto the mothers and their babies in gravida,and the therapy of VVC in pregnant women should be conducted actively before and after delivery.

Objective To investigate the prenatal emotional disorder of the primipame and the related factors,and to analyze its influence on the delivery mode.Methods In the prospective cohort study,590 healthy primiparase were asked to complete a self-compiled questionnaires for their general social mental state,state-trait anxiety inventory(STAI)and self-rating depression scale(SDS).Results Questionnaires of 159 patients were selected and these patients were divided into the anxiety group(114 cases)and the control group(455 cases),the depression group(159 cases)and the control group(410 cases).The ratio of selective cesarean section in the anxiety group was significantly higher(45.61%,32.53%,X2=6.85,P＜0.01),while the successful trial of labor were less than that of the control group(19.35%,47.88%,X2=26.30,P＜0.01).The ratio of selective cesarean section in the depression group was significandy higher than that of the control group(46.54%,31.95%,X2=10.21,P＜0.01),while the successful trial of labor were less than that of the control group(31.76%.46.59%,X2=9.13,P＜0.01).Single-factor analysis showed that prenatal anxiety related to the following factors:fear of childbirth,worried about their children,knowledge for childbirth,high economic status,maternal age and their own economic situation.Conclusions Higher incidence and risk factors of anxiety or depression before delivery,such as advanced delivery age,bad economic condition,weak family support,worrying about the safety of babies and themselves,are found in our study.Prenatal emotional disorder would affect the quality of labor and delivery options,and lead the high risk of cesarean section.

Matrix_assisted laser desorption ionization_time of flight tandem mass spectrometry ( MALDI_TOF/TOF MS) and electrospray ionization_quadrupole_time of flight mass spectrometry ( ESI_Q_TOF MS) were used to confirm the structure of cyclic lipopeptide daptomycin fastly. First, the relative molecular weight 1916. 7107 of daptomycin was measured by ESI with error 0. 0007. The sample’s doubly charged peak m/z 809. 848 was selected as precursor ion for ESI_MS/MS analysis, and the exocyclic amino acid sequence C9 H19 CO_Trp_Asn_Asp was successfully matched. Second, the experimental conditions of cleaving daptomycin by lithium hydroxide ( LiOH) were optimized and the ring_opened process was monitored by MALDI_TOF/TOF MS. After obtaining ring_opened product with purity of above 95%, the MS/MS measurements by MALDI and ESI were carried out. The b+and y+of ring_opened product were completely matched, which confirmed the amino acid sequence of daptomycin. Finally, ESI_MS/MS conditions of ring_opened product were further optimized to obtain more low mass fragment ions for analyzing the structure of fatty acid chain and the cleavage pattern of fat chain in mass spectrometry was proposed. The method was fast, convenient, accurate and reliable for identifying cyclic lipopeptide compounds.

Objectives To analyze the clinical characteristics of drinking-water type endemic arsenism in population lived in the diseased areas before and after water improvement in Inner Mongolia,so as to assess the natural development and the effects of human intervention measures.Methods Residents of four villages lived in Hangjinhouqi Bayinnaoer city Inner Mongolia were followed-up and their skin lesions were examined in 2004 (before water improvement),2010 (complete water improvement),2014 (after water improvement).Meanwhile,blood pressure and heart rate of the subjects were measured.The arsenic poisoning skin damage indexing was in accordance with endemic arsenic poisoning diagnostic criteria (WS/T 211-2001).Results Totally,229,122,161 people were investigation in 2004,2010,2014,respectively.The clinical grading of arsenic exposed population were mainly normal and suspicious cases in 2004,accounting for 61.6％ (141/229) and 22.7％ (52/229),respectively.The clinical grading of normal,suspicious,mild and severe cases were 20.5％ (25/122),31.1％ (38/122) and 48.4％ (59/ 122),respectively,in 2010,which were significantly different compared with those of 2004 (x2 =68.53,P ＜ 0.01).The clinical grading percentages of normal and suspicious of the subjects in 2014 were 46.6％ (75/161) and 39.8％ (64/161),respectively,which were significantly different compared with those of 2010 (x2 =45.22,P ＜ 0.01).Meanwhile,91 subjects examined in 2004 were re-examined in 2010 and 47 subjects examined in 2010 were reexamined in 2014.Totally,12 cases were migitation,accounting for 13.2％ (12/91),52 cases were aggravation,accounting for 57.1％ (52/91) in 2010,and 25 cases were migitation,accounting for 53.2％ (25/47),9 cases were aggravation,accounting for 19.1％ (9/47) in 2014.The differences of skin lesion transition between these two periods were significant (x2 =28.66,P ＜ 0.05).In addition,the systolic pressures and diastolic pressure of the subjects were (132.19 ± 21.21),(126.99 ± 18.32),(147.69 ± 22.65);(84.88 ± 14.13),(76.52 ± 10.08),(84.39 ± 13.89)mmHg in 2004,2010 and 2014,respectively,which declined in 2010 compared with them of 2004 (all P ＜ 0.05) and raised in 2014 compared with them of 2010 (all P ＜ 0.01).The heart rate of the subjects were (76.05 ± 12.56),(78.86 ± 11.69),(82.05 ± 11.26)times/min.The heart rate of the subjects raised in 2010 and 2014 compared with that of 2004 (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The skin lesions induced by arsenism could be effectively alleviated through water improvement,but the late stage changes such as the cardiovascular system injury are still worthy of attention.

ObjectiveTo analyze the clinical manifestation of hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) due to anti-M and Rhesus system.MethodsClinical information was collected and analyzed for three cases with HDN due to anti-M and 64 with Rhesus hemolytic disease, who were admitted to Department of Neonatology, Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from February 2011 to January 2015, as well as another 28 cases of HDN due to anti-M with complete information retrieved from literature in Wanfang and China National Knowledge lnfrastructure (CNKI) Database from 1992 to 2014.Chi-square test was performed for statistical analysis.ResultsTwo out of the 64 Rh hemolytic babies gave up therapy due to kernicterus and another two out of the 31 MN hemolytic babies, obtained from literature, died 24 h after birth because of anemia or edema, while the rest survived. Although more babies were the first child of the family in HDN due to anti-M than those of Rh hemolytic disease [26%(8/31) vs 9%(6/64),χ2=4.487, P=0.034], but lower incidence of jaundice [81%(25/31) vs 98%(63/64),χ2=9.686,P=0.002], less proportion of presentation of jaundice within 24 h after birth [29% (9/31) vs 64%(41/64),χ2=10.279,P=0.001] and lower positive rate of direct antiglobulin test [39%(12/31) vs 100%(64/64), Fisher exact test,P=0.000] were shown in HDN due to anti-M. No significant difference was found in the incidences of hyperbilirubinemia [58%(18/31) vs 66%(42/64),χ2=0.513], severe hyperbilirubinemia [23%(7/31) vs 36%(23/64),χ2=1.724], anemia [81%(25/31) vs 89%(57/64),χ2=1.253] and severe anemia [29%(9/31) vs 34%(22/64),χ2=0.271] between HDN due to anti-M and Rh hemolytic babies (allP>0.05).ConclusionsHDN due to anti-M and Rhesus hemolytic disease can cause severe pathological jaundice and/or anemia in newborns. Indirect antiglobulin test should be offered when direct antiglobulin test is negative which is helpful in the diagnosis of HDN due to anti-M.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the distribution and factors associated with HIV and syphilis infection among Men who have sex with men blood donors (MSMBD) in Shenzhen.

METHODSA total of 813 MSMBD were recruited using snowball sampling and respondent driven sampling from 2009 to 2012 in Shenzhen. Questionnaire-based interviews were conducted on a one-on-one basis. Data were collected including socio-demographic information, HIV testing history, self-identified sexual orientation, role in homosexual behavior, information about having sex with male sexual partners in the past six months and information about having sex with female sexual partners in the past six months.5 ml blood samples were taken and tested for treponema pallidum and HIV antibodies. Comparisons of syphilis and HIV infection among different years were analyzed by the Cochran-Armitage trend test. Factors associated with syphilis and HIV infection were analyzed by the univariate logistic regression and multivariate unconditional logistic regression.

RESULTSThe prevalence of syphilis, HIV, and syphilis-HIV co-infection among 813 participants were 22.0% (179/813), 8.0% (65/813), and 4.2% (34/813), respectively. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, ever tested for HIV (versus without HIV testing history, OR (95%CI) = 0.369(0.213-0.641)) will decrease the risk of HIV infection among MSMBD in comparison with never tested for HIV (OR (95%CI) = 0.37 (0.21-0.64) ); having five or more anal sexual partners in the past six months and co-infected with syphilis will increase the risk of HIV infection among MSMBD in comparison with having 0-1 sexual partners (OR (95%CI) = 2.04 (1.03-4.06) ) and negative syphilis (OR (95%CI) = 4.52(2.64-7.73)), respectively, bisexual orientation, having 2-4 anal sexual partners and having five or more anal sexual partners in the past six months, using condoms not for every act of anal sex, co-infected with HIV will increase the risk of syphilis infection among MSMBD in comparison with homosexual orientation (OR (95%CI) = 1.60(1.12-2.27)), having 0-1 sexual partner in the past six months (OR (95%CI) = 1.77 (1.09-2.87) and OR (95%CI) = 1.84(1.09-3.08) ) , using condoms for every act of anal sex (OR (95%CI) = 1.61 (1.10-2.36) ) and negative HIV (OR (95%CI) = 4.02 (2.33-6.96)), respectively.

CONCLUSIONThe prevalence of HIV and syphilis among MSMBD in Shenzhen are much higher with complex influence factors. The relevant government should pay great attention to it and ensure the blood safety.

Objective: To investigate the factors associated with syphilis/HIV infection among men who have sex with men (MSM) maintaining a single sexual partner in Shenzhen. Methods: Respondent driven sampling and snowball sampling method were used to recruit MSM receiving voluntary counseling and testing in Shenzhen Rainbow clinic from 2011 to 2016. Inclusion criteria: aged 18 years and above; reported having one or more anal sexual partners in the recent 6 months. A total of 3 109 men who have sex with men (MSM) were involved in the study. Questionnaire-based interviews were conducted on a one-on-one basis. Data were collected including socio-demographic information, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) testing history, history of blood donation and drug abuse in the recent two years, self-identified sexual orientation, role in homosexual behavior, ever being money boys (MB) and clients of MB, female sexual partners in the recent 6 months. 5 ml blood samples were taken after questionnaires. Syphilis was screened using toluidine red unheated serum test for the antibody of treponema pallidum and then confirmed by treponema pallidum particle assay. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used for screening HIV and western blot was used to confirm the HIV screening results. The difference of condom use among MSM between female sexual partners and male sexual partners were compared. Multivariate unconditional stepwise logistic regression model was used to analyze factors associated with syphilis infection and HIV positive among MSM. Results: A total of 3 109 eligible participants with mean (SD) age of 31.49 (8.64) years were enrolled in this study. Among them, 565 cases were infected with syphilis (18.17%), 330 cases were infected with HIV (10.61%), and 165 cases (5.31%) were syphilis co-infected with HIV. 791 (25.44%) reported maintaining a single sexual partners in the recent 6 months. Compared to MSM with multiple sexual partners, the prevalence of syphilis and HIV infection among MSM with a single sexual partner were lower, and the OR (95%CI) were 0.64 (0.51-0.81) and 0.66 (0.49-0.90), respectively. Conclusion The proportion of fixed single sexual partner was much lower among MSM in Shenzhen. Maintaining a single sexual partners can reduce the risk of syphilis/HIV infection among MSM.

Objective: To analyze the rule and characteristics of school food poisoning incident in Guizhou Province during 2011-2018. Methods: Data of school food poisoning incidents were collected from the Foodborne Disease Outbreak Surveillance System in Guizhou Province during 2011-2018 and statistically analyzed. Results: A total of 78 cases of food poisoning occurred in schools in Guizhou Province during 2011-2018. Among the 1 506 cases, 869 hospitalized and 1 died. May was peak time for school food poisoning. Most of the incidents (83.33%, 65/78) occurred in the school canteens. Plant origin products (50%, 39/78), especially spoiled rice, were the most common types of food poisoning in school(16.67%, 13/78). Conclusion Primary and secondary school students were the largest group for school food poisoning in Guizhou province. It was necessary to strengthen the supervision and management of school canteens and surrounding places, as well as to improve the food safety awareness of food operators and students, preventing similar incidents from happening again.
