BACKGROUND:Repairing tuberculosis bone defect has become a research focus with the development of anti-tuberculosis functional bone tissue engineering scaffold. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the preparation, drug release performance and osteogenic properties of the anti-tuberculosis functional bone tissue engineering scaffold. METHODS:PubMed, Chinese Journal Ful-text Database, Wanfang databases were searched by computer for articles addressing functional bone tissue engineering scaffold for repair of tuberculosis bone defect. The keywords were“bone tissue engineering scaffold;tuberculosis;bone defect”in English and Chinese. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The anti-tuberculosis functional bone tissue engineering scaffold has good drug delivery, biocompatibility, osteogenic properties and anti-tuberculosis properties. As a good choice to avert bone defect relapse, the scaffold enables a long and stable drug release into bone defects to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of anti-tuberculosis drugs topical y. Given the technical deficiencies, we can only combine two drugs with the anti-tuberculosis bone tissue engineering scaffold, although the combined use of three or four anti-tuberculosis drugs is preferred. Additional y, a complete course of anti-tuberculosis treatment often lasts for 6-12 months, which cannot be achieved by the existing anti-tuberculosis bone tissue engineering scaffold. Up to now, the effect of this scaffold has not yet been confirmed in animal models, although how to prepare this scaffold has been reported.

Objective:To explore the intention of exclusive breastfeeding and its influencing factors within six months after delivery of pregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy in Xi'an.Methods:From January to February 2019, convenience sampling was used to select 2 671 pregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy who underwent regular obstetric examinations in Obstetrics Clinic of five hospitals in Xi'an for a cross-sectional survey. Pregnant women were surveyed by means of a field survey using a self-designed Exclusive Breastfeeding Intention of Pregnant Women in the Third Trimester Questionnaire. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of the intention of exclusive breastfeeding among pregnant women in the third trimester. A total of 2 671 questionnaires were distributed, 2 479 valid questionnaires were recovered, and the valid recovery rate was 92.8% (2 479/2 671) .Results:A total of 60.8% (1 507/2 479) of pregnant women planned to exclusively breastfeed within 6 months of delivery. Pregnant women in the third trimester of pregnancy whose husbands ( OR=2.950, 95% CI: 2.097-4.066) and family members ( OR=2.171, 95% CI: 1.571-3.000) supported exclusive breastfeeding had high intention to exclusively breastfeed, and those who participated in breastfeeding courses had a high intention to exclusively breastfeed ( OR=1.436, 95% CI: 1.199-1.719) . Conclusions:More than half of third-trimester women plan to exclusively breastfeed within six months postpartum. Husband and family support and enrolment in breastfeeding classes increase the intention of pregnant women to exclusively breastfeed. Prenatal breastfeeding courses should be carried out to raise the awareness of pregnant women and family members about exclusive breastfeeding, and focus on the support of husbands and family members for exclusive breastfeeding, so as to increase the exclusive breastfeeding rate within six months after delivery.
