Objective:To explore the related risk factors of antepartum depression and anxiety,and to provide the theoretical support for early screening,clinical intervention and prevention of antepartum depression and anxiety.Methods:At the time of 28 weeks of prenatal examination,the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EP-DS),Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS)were used to survey 2112 pregnant women who were selected from Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Kunming City.Non conditional logistic regression analysis was used to explore the re-lated risk factors of prenatal depression and anxiety.Results:At the 28 weeks of pregnancy,the detection rate of de-pression symptoms and anxiety symptoms were 25.4% and 6.6%.Logistic regression analysis showed that the risk factors for perinatal depression symptoms were younger age (OR =0.80,95%CI:0.68 -0.94),not stick to work during pregnancy (OR =1.18,95%CI:1.02 -1.36),not satisfied with the living environment (OR =1.50,95%CI:1.23 -1.83),expectations for boys (OR =0.86,95%CI:0.77 -0.96),not only daughter (OR =1.37,95%CI:1.06 -1.76),unplanned pregnancy (OR =1.38,95%CI:1.10 -1.72).The risk factors for perinatal anxiety symp-toms were being not satisfied with the living environment (OR =1.64,95%CI:1.19 -2.26),not harmonious with her husband (OR =2.01,95%CI:1.20 -3.37),unplanned pregnancy (OR =1.50,95%CI:1.05 -2.14).Conclu-sion:It suggests that the pregnant women with younger age,less working during pregnancy,being not satisfied with the living environment,having more expectations for boys,being not only daughter,with unplanned pregnancy are more likely to suffer from antepartum depression;those being not satisfied with living environment,having harmoni-ous relation with her husband,and with unplanned pregnancy are more likely to suffer from antepartum anxiety.

Objective To explore the status of social participation and quality of life (QOL) of empty-nesters,and discuss the correlation between social participation and QOL of empty nesters.Methods Totally 243 empty-nesters were selected and investigated by self-designed social participation questionnaire and world health organization quality of life scale for old people (WHOQOL-OLD).Results The QOL score of empty nesters in Hangzhou were (90.98±10.40). Their self-evaluated social participation was positively correlated to QOL (r=0.346,P<0.01). Participating in economic activities and public welfare activities could predict the QOL.Conclusions The QOL of empty nesters in Hangzhou is above the middle level. Participation in economic activities and public service activities can improve the QOL of empty nesters.

In order to expand gene resources and improve Brassica napus cultivars, protoplasts isolated from hypocotyls of Brassica napus cv. Huayou No. 3 and Eruca sativa were fused by PEG-high Ca2+-high pH. Fusion frequency was up to 18.2% when fusion system contained 5 x 10(5) protoplasts/mL, and when PEG concentration of fusion agents were 35% and when fusion time was 25 min. Then the fused protoplasts were cultured by the method of thin liquid layer at the density of 1 x 10(5) protoplasts/mL in improved KM8p medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D, 0.5 mg/L NAA, 0.5 mg/L 6-BA, 200 mg/L inositol, 300 mg/L protein hydrolysate, and the combinations of 0.1 mol/L sucrose and 0.2 mol/L glucose and 0.2 mol/L mannitol for osmotic regulator, the frequency of callus regeneration was up to 6.8%. When the micro-calli transferred to the proliferation medium that contained B5 salts, 0.087 mol/L sucrose, 0.2 mg/L 2,4-D, 0.5 mg/L NAA, 0.2 mg/L 6-BA and 0.5% Agar, pH 5.8, have grown up to 3-5 mm of diameter, the calli were transferred to the differentiation medium that contained MS salts, 0.087 mol/L sucrose, 0.1 mg/L IAA, 0.8 mg/L 6-BA, 0.8% Agar, pH5.8, the shoots were regenerated in 4 weeks and its frequency was up to 32.8%. Then 2-3 cm shoots were transferred to 1/2 MS medium with 0.5 mg/L IBA+0.2mg/L 6-BA, plantlets were obtained in 14 days and the plantlet frequency was up to 88%. When the protoplasts of Eruca sativa were treated with UV radiation for 2 minutes calli and plantlets have been regenerated, treated for 4 min only calli have been regenerated, and treated for more than 5 min calli have not been regenerated. The callus regeneration and callus proliferation and plant regeneration from symmetric fusion were more than from asymmetric fusion. 16 hybrid plantlets have been regenerated on 21 piece of hybrid calli identified by cytology method.

ObjectiveTo investigate the change in the activity of glucosylceramide synthase, the key enzyme in glycosphingolipid metabolism and synthesis, in Huh7 cells infected by hepatitis B virus (HBV) in vitro. MethodsBlood samples were collected from nine previously untreated patients with acute hepatitis B who attended Department of Infectious Diseases, The First Hospital of Lanzhou University, from June to August, 2019, and the blood samples collected from seven healthy individuals who underwent physical examination were established as control. Huh7 cells were inoculated with the high-copy HBV particles (＞9.9×107 IU/ml) in the serum of patients with HBV infection (infection group), and Huh7 cells co-cultured with the serum of healthy individuals were established as control group. The expression levels of HBsAg and HBV DNA in the cytoplasm of HBV-infected Huh7 cells were measured, and the correlation between GCS activity and virus was analyzed. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups, and a Pearson correlation analysis was performed. ResultsCompared with the control group, the infection group had a significant reduction in the number of cells, an increase in cell volume, and cell membrane fragmentation. The infection group had a significant increase in the expression of HBsAg in cytoplasm at 4 hours, 8 hours, 2 days, and 5 days after infection (P＜0.05); the expression level of HBV DNA tended to increase significantly from 4 hours after infection to 8 hours, 2 days, and 5 days after infection (16.67±11.55 IU/ml vs 112.01±25.94 IU/ml/328.01±10350 IU/ml/101.60±49.84 IU/ml, P＜0.001), with the highest level at 2 days after infection. During HBV infection, the activity of GCS gradually increased with the increase in viral replication from 4 hours after infection (126.21±9.59 IU/ml) and reached a peak at 2 days after infection (226.53±36.27 IU/ml), with a significant difference between the infection group and the control group at 2 days after infection (226.53±36.27 IU/ml vs 136.50±1544 IU/ml, t=3.956, P=0.016 7). The activity of GCS was positively correlated with HBV DNA level (r=0.576 8, P=0047 1). ConclusionHuh7 cells are successfully infected with the high-copy HBV particles in the serum of patients with HBV infection, which mimics the characteristics of HBV infection in vitro to a certain degree. The activity of GCS may be associated with HBV infection, suggesting that glycosphingolipid synthesis and metabolism may be closely associated with HBV.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine in preventing postoperative de-lirium in the patients with schizophrenia. Methods Ninety patients with schizophrenia of both sexes, with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, aged 20-60 yr, weighing 45-90 kg, with a history of long-term use of antipsychotics, scheduled for elective emergency operation under general anes-thesia, were divided into 3 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: high-dose dexme-detomidine group ( group HD ) , low-dose dexmedetomidine group ( group LD ) and control group ( group C) . In HD and LD groups, dexmedetomidine was intravenously injected in doses of 1. 0 and 0. 5 μg∕kg, respectively, over 10 min prior to induction of anesthesia, followed by continuous infusion at 0. 4 and 0. 2μg · kg-1 · h-1 , respectively, until the end of operation. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol, remifentanil and sevoflurane, and bispectral index value was maintained at 40-55. Patient-controlled intra-venous analgesia was performed within 48 h after operation, and visual analogue scale score was main-tained≤3. The end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane ( ETsev) was recorded at 30 min after endotracheal intubation. The sleep quality was evaluated and scored at 6 h and 1, 2 and 3 days after operation. The oc-currence of delirium during emergency from anesthesia and within 3 days after operation was recorded. The occurrence of postoperative adverse reactions such as bradycardia, hypotension and hypoxemia was also re-corded. Results Compared with group C, the ETsev, sleep quality scores at each time point after opera-tion and incidence of delirium during emergency from anesthesia and within 3 days after operation ( 3％) were significantly decreased in group HD, and the ETsev, sleep quality scores at 6 h after operation and in-cidence of delirium during emergency from anesthesia were significantly decreased ( P<0. 05) , and no sig-nificant change was found in the incidence of delirium within 3 days after operation in group LD ( P>0. 05) . The ETsev and incidence of delirium within 3 days after operation were significantly lower in group HD than in group LD ( P<0. 05) . There was no significant difference in the incidence of bradycardia, hypotension or hyoxemia among C, HD and LD groups (P>0. 05). Conclusion Dexmedetomidine given as a loading dose of 1. 0μg∕kg followed by a maintenance dose of 0. 4μg·kg-1 ·h-1 can prevent postoperative delirium effectively in the patients with schizophrenia.

Objective: To explore deep vein thrombosis (DVT) occurrence in patients after right heart catheterization and the effect of anticoagulant therapy. Methods: A total of 171 consecutive patients with electrophysiological study (EPS) and/or radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) in our hospital from 2015-01 to 2016-05 were enrolled. All patients had supra-ventricular tachycardia and completed a venous surgery, they were randomly divided into 2 groups: Anticoagulation group,n=87 and Non-anticoagulation group,n=84. Lower extremity vascular Doppler ultrasonography was performed at (24-48) h post-operation to compare the incidence of DVT between 2 groups. Results: There were 13/171 patients were excluded for not completing post-operative lower extremity vascular Doppler ultrasonography including 9 patients in Anticoagulation group and 4 in Non-anticoagulation group. 158 patients finished post-operative examination and follow-up study. Anticoagulation group had 7/78 (8.97%) patients suffered from DVT, Non-anticoagulation group had 41/80 (51.3%) patients suffered from DVT,P<0.001. Conclusion: The incidence of DVT was higher after right heart catheterization without anticoagulation; heparin treatment may reduce DVT occurrence in relevant patients.

Objective:To explore the impacts of cyclic RNA asparagine hydroxylase(CircASPH)targeting the miR-28-5p/insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor(IGF-1R)axis on the proliferation,migration,and invasion of ovari-an granulosa cells in polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods:Human ovarian granulosa cells KGN and COV434 were used as research subjects,the targeting relationship among CircASPH,miR-28-5p,and IGF-1R was confirmed through dual luciferase reporter gene experiments and pull down experiments.KGN and COV434 cells were grouped into si-NC group,si-ASPH group,si-ASPH+anti NC group,and si-ASPH+anti miR-28-5p group.The mRNA expression levels of CircASPH,miR-28-5p,and IGF-1R mRNA were detected by qRT-PCR,cell proliferation,migration,and invasion were detected by MTT assay,Edu staining,and transwell cell assay,respec-tively;and Western blot was applied to detect the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA),matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2),vimentin,N-cadherin,E-cadherin,and IGF-1R proteins.Results:Bioinformatics a-nalysis and dual luciferase reporter gene experiments showed that CircASPH,IGF-1R and miR-28-5p had targe-ted binding sites.Compared with si-NC group,the expression level of CircASPH,OD490 value,Edu positive cell rate,cell migration and invasion number,MMP-2,vimentin and N-cadherin in si-ASPH group were decreased,while the expression level of miR-28-5p and E-cadherin protein were increased,and the differences were statisti-cally significant(P<0.05).Compared with the si-ASPH+anti-NC group,the expression level of miR-28-5p and E-cadherin in the si-ASPH+anti-miR-28-5p group were decreased,and the OD490 value,Edu positive cell rate,cell migration and invasion number,MMP-2,vimentin and N-cadherin were increased,the differences were statisti-cally significant(P<0.05).Conclusions:In KGN and COV434 cells,inhibiting the expression of CircASPH can inhibit the proliferation,migration,invasion,and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of ovarian granulosa cells by reg-ulating the miR-28-5p/IGF-1R axis,which may become a new target for the treatment of PCOS.
