Objective · To investigate the smoking hypertensive elderly, find out the status of smoking in this population, and explore effective system intervention. Methods · The smoking hypertensive elderly in Waigang Town of Shanghai who received free antihypertensive drugs were recruited to investigate and descriptively analyze the smoking status of them with questionnaires. Results · There were 77.6% of the smoking hypertensive elderly who began to smoke in the age of 13 to 25, and nearly 70% smoking for more than 40 years. There were 59.5% of these people smoking 11 to 29 cigarettes daily in recent 3 years, and 41.6% spending 200-299 yuan on smoking monthly. Conclusion · Currently almost 70% of the smoking hypertensive elderly, who receives free antihypertensive drugs, have been smoking for more than 40 years, and the average number of cigarettes smoked daily is big. It is clear that the health education attached to the policy of providing free antihypertensive drugs has not changed the behavior. Therefore, medical personnel still needs to contact the illness and smoking hazards to help the elderly reduce smoking. Besides, it proves that tobacco control should be implemented in the young population to control epidemic at the early stage.

Objective · To investigate the prevalence of passive smoking among pregnant women in Shanghai and to analyze its influencing factors and to provide the basis and suggestion for making related intervention measures to reduce the harm of secondhand smoke on the health of pregnant women. Methods · From July to October 2014, pregnant women and their spouses were recruited for a questionnaire investigation at the antenatal care clinics of 3 maternity hospitals and 3 community hospitals in Shanghai. The questionnaire included demographic information, family basic situation and cognitive status of passive smoking. Results · The passive smoking rate before pregnancy in the 2831 pregnant women, who were involved in the investigation, was 17.1%. The passive rate during pregnancy was 7.8%. The difference between these two rates was statistically significant (P<0.05). 71.0% of the pregnant women have passive smoking for 15~59 min each day. Relative to home and work place, the passive smoking rate of pregnant women in public place was the highest (P<0.05). The passive smoking rate of pregnant women was significantly associated with the educational level of smoking spouses and the attitude of pregnant women when they faced the smokers. Conclusion · The passive smoking rate of pregnant women is influenced by the educational level of their spouses and the pregnant women's feedback to the smokers face to face. Public places are the most important exposure places to secondhand smoke for pregnant women. In order to reduce the harm from passive smoking to pregnant women and their fetuses, the related measures of smoking control at home education and smoking ban in public place should be made.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1) and lymphocyte function associated with antigen-1( LFA-1) and acute rejection of liver transplantation in rats. Methods SD rats and Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group, isograft group, and allograft group. Liver biopsies from the recipients were obtained on the day 2,4, and 7 postoperatively to examine the expression level of ICAM-1 and LFA-1 in liver grafts. Samples were firstly stained with specific monoclonal antibodies using immunohistochemistry stain and then applied to image semiquantitive analysis. Results The expression levels of ICAM-1 and LFA-1 in allograft group were obviously higher than those in both isograft group and normal group. Moreover, the expression levels of ICAM-1 and LFA-1 were correlated positively with the degree of acute liver rejection. Conclusions Detecting the expressions of ICAM-1 and LFA-1 in liver graft tissue may be helpful to the diagnosis of acute rejection after liver transplantation.

Purpose:
The aim of the present study was to test the hypothesis that recovery sleep could counteract the detrimental effects of sleep deprivation (SD) on male rats’ fertility.
Materials and Methods:
Twenty-two rats were housed in groups of six per cage with unrestricted access to food and water in a room. The modified multiple platform method was used to induce SD in rats over a 96-hour period. We examined the effect of SD on semen quality, reproductive hormones, and testicular histology in adult male rats. Then, we investigated the effect of 7 days recovery sleep on impaired reproductive function induced by SD.
Results:
After the acclimation period, 22 rats were randomly separated into three experimental groups (SD, recovery sleep, and the control groups). Ninety-six hours of SD resulted in a significant decrease in sperm motility (24.33±10.93 vs. 48.20±8.55, p<0.001) and the number of morphologically normal sperm (9.68±2.77 vs. 26.21±14.60, p<0.01) in rats, accompanied by a decrease in testosterone levels (1.53±0.55 vs. 4.44±0.56, p<0.001) and destruction of testicular tissue structure compared with control group. After 7 days of recovery sleep, semen quality, especially sperm motility, was improved and testosterone levels were significantly higher compared to post-SD (3.70±0.53 vs. 1.53±0.55, p<0.05), but remained low compared to the control group.
Conclusions
In conclusion, 96 hours of SD deteriorated the parameters of sperm motility and the number of morphologically normal sperm in rats, probably due to the decrease in serum testosterone levels and the disruption of testicular tissue structure when compared to the control group. After 7 days of recovery sleep, semen parameter, especially sperm motility and testosterone levels did not return to baseline levels compared to the control group.
8.Association between iron intake from different sources and risk of gestational diabetes mellitus: a retrospective cohort study
Shanghai Journal of Preventive Medicine 2022;34(7):671-675
ObjectiveTo explore the association between total iron, iron supplements, dietary total iron, heme iron intake and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM). MethodsA total of 668 pregnant women who gave birth in one hospital in Shanghai during January 2020 to July 2021 were included in a retrospective cohort study. Baseline characteristics and data of iron supplements in second trimester were collected through a questionnaire. A simplified dietary frequency questionnaire was used to quantify the food intake in second trimester. Total iron, iron supplements, dietary total iron, and heme iron intake was classified into groups by quintile and median. The association between iron intake from different sources and risk of GDM was determined using logistic regression analysis. ResultsAfter correction for age, family history of diabetes, overweight / obesity before pregnancy, hemoglobin(Hb)in first trimester, energy, carbohydrate energy, protein, and free sugar, it showed no association between total iron intake and risk of GDM (P>0.05), while elevated risk of GDM among women with high iron supplements intake (OR=1.65; 95%CI: 1.14‒2.39), and decreased risk of GDM among those with high dietary total iron intake (OR=0.53; 95%CI: 0.35‒0.81). However, no association was found between heme iron intake and risk of GDM (P>0.05). ConclusionHigh dietary total iron intake may be a protective factor, while high iron supplements may be a risk factor for GDM. It suggests that pregnant women should carefully choose high-dose iron-containing supplements in the absence of iron deficiency, as dietary iron intake should be the priority.

Hilar cholangiocarcinoma(HCCA) is a hotpot and a difficult point in the field of hepatobiliary surgery. HCCA is the most common type of cholangiocarcinoma and is characterized by atypical early clinical manifestations, rapid progression and poor prognosis. There is no specific marker for HCCA and its preoperative diagnosis and evaluation mainly relies on imaging examination. Surgical treatment is still the main treatment, but most patients have lost the opportunity of surgical resection by the time of treatment. In recent years, a large number of studies have been conducted on the diagnosis and treatment of HCCA at home and abroad, and the efficacy of HCCA has been improved. Perioperative management, including the selection of preoperative drainage and perioperative chemoradiotherapy and others, improved postoperative survival. Among them, the application of preoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy in the field of liver transplantation has achieved quite good results. Targeted therapy and immunotherapy have provided new treatment methods for HCCA. This paper reviews the diagnosis and multimodal treatment of HCCA.
