Objective To explore the expression levels of immune-related microRNA-146b (miR-146b),microRNA-155 (miR-155) and microRNA-30b(miR-30b) in human breast milk and its relationship with maternal and infant's health.Methods One hundred and thirty-four mothers and their infants from obstetrical department were recruited in the study after delivery.The subjects were divided into 2 groups,breast feeding group(n =86) and formula-feeding group(n =48),and were followed up 3 months after delivery.Breast milk samples were collected at 2-5 days after delivery(colostrum) and 3 months after delivery(mature milk).The expression levels of microRNAs in milk samples were detected by real-time PCR.The relationship between levels of microRNAs and maternal and infant-related factors was analyzed.Results 1.MiR-146b,miR-155 and miR-30b expressions were abundant both in human colostrums (5.950 ± 0.823,3.899 ± 0.920,4.057 ± 0.604) and mature milk (4.840 ± 0.805,2.128 ± 0.969,4.929 ± 0.566).The levels of miR-146b and miR-155 were higher in colostrum than that of mature milk (t =7.716,10.215,all P ＜ 0.01),while the level of miR-30b was higher in mature milk than that of colostrums(t =-8.626,P ＜ 0.0l).2.Additionally,the level of miR-30b was negatively correlated with maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (r =-0.298,P ＜ 0.01).3.The levels of miR-146b and miR-30b were higher in mothers giving birth by vaginal delivery than those who underwent cesarean section(t =2.356,3.108,all P ＜0.05).4.The levels of miR-146b and miR-155 were higher in colostrum-fed girls than boys (t =-2.204,-2.985,all P ＜ 0.05).5.The level of miR-146b in mature milk was negatively correlated with 3-month-old infant' s Z score of body weight (r =-0.425,P ＜ 0.05) and body length (r =-0.569,P ＜ 0.01).6.During follow-up,the incidence of baby eczema in breast feeding group (8.82％,3/34 cases) was lower than that in formula milk feeding group(29.17％,14/48 cases) (x2 =5.012,P =0.025).Conclusions The levels of immunocompetent microRNAs in human milk are influenced by the lactation period,maternal prepregnancy body mass index,mode of delivery and infant sex.The immune-related microRNAs in human milk could be involved in the regulation of infant's immunity and growth.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical efficacy of the lymph node dissection patterns of the reverse and the traditional cabbage in hand-assisted laparoscopic D2 radical gastrectomy (HALG).

METHODSFrom December 2010 to October 2013, 194 patients with HALG in Chengdu Military General Hospital were enrolled in this study. According to the pattern of lymph node dissection, 108 patients were performed with the reverse procedure which took spleen as starting point, from left to right, and 86 patients were performed with the traditional cabbage procedure which took the abdominal cavity as the center, from both sides to middle. A retrospective comparative analysis was made on the intra- and post-operative data between the two groups.

RESULTSAll the patients were successfully performed with HALG, and no peri-operative death occurred. There were no significant differences in the incision length [(7.0 ± 0.2) cm vs. (6.9 ± 0.3) cm], the operative time [(170.9 ± 33.8) minute vs. (174.6 ± 22.4) minute], dissected lymph node number (17.6 ± 7.5 vs. 17.1 ± 5.8) and post-operative complications [(6.5%(7/108) vs. 8.1%(7/86)] between the reverse group and cabbage group (all P>0.05). However, less blood loss [(204.6 ± 98.2) ml vs. (259.1 ± 122.6) ml, P<0.01] and shorter postoperative hospital stay [(9.0 ± 1.7) day vs. (10.5 ± 4.0) day, P<0.01] were observed in reverse group as compared to cabbage group. During 1 to 6 months follow-up, no death case was found in reverse group, while 1 case died due to upper gastrointestinal bleeding 48 days after operation in cabbage group.

CONCLUSIONEfficacy is similar between the two HALG procedures in lymph node dissection, while reverse procedure has certain advantages, such as less blood loss and faster recovery.

Objective:To understand the sleep quality and mental health status of nurses in public health emergencies, and analyze the correlation between them.Methods:A total of 128 first-line nursing staff participating in public health emergencies on February 22-23, 2020 in Tianjin Beichen Hospital, Tianjin First Central Hospital, Tianjin Fourth Central Hospital were investigated by the general data questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90).Results:70.3%(90/128) of nursing staff had poor sleep quality, and the total score of PSQI was (9.71±4.01) points, which was statistically significant compared with the domestic norm ( t value was 16.479, P<0.01). The total score of SCL-90 was 1.59±0.52, which was statistically significant compared with the domestic norm ratio ( t value was 4.505, P<0.01). One-way ANOVA showed that the nursing staff's age had a significant impact on sleep quality, and the difference was statistically significant ( F value was 4.092, P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the Pittsburgh sleep quality scale index scores and symptom self-assessment scale and somatization, force, sensitive interpersonal relationship, depression, anxiety, hostile, terrorist, paranoia, and psychosis were positively correlated( r values were 0.292-0.444, P< 0.01). Conclusions:The sleep quality and mental health status of nurses in public health emergencies are poor, and the sleep quality is correlated with mental health status.
