Objective::To build a reference fetal growth chart for the Chinese population based on fetal ultrasound measurements.Methods::This was a multicenter, population-based retrospective cohort study. Longitudinal ultrasound measurement data were collected from 24 hospitals in 18 provinces of China from 1 st September through 31 st October of 2019. The estimated fetal weight (EFW) was calculated based on head circumference, abdominal circumference, and femur length using Hadlock formula 3. Fetal growth curves were estimated using a two-level linear regression model with cubic splines. All participants were divided into two groups: the northern group ( n = 5829) and the southern group ( n = 3246) based on the geographical division of China and male fetus group ( n = 4775) and female fetus group ( n = 4300) based on fetal gender. The EFW was compared by fetal gender and geographical group. All statistical models were adjusted for maternal sociodemographic characteristics. Results::A total of 9075 participants with 31,700 ultrasound measurement records were included in this study. Male fetuses demonstrated significantly larger EFW compared to female ones starting at 16 weeks of gestation and extending to delivery (global test P < 0.01). The overall geographic difference in EFW was significant (global test P = 0.03), and week-specific comparisons showed that the northern group had a greater EFW starting at 15 weeks of gestation and extending to 29 weeks of gestation, although this difference did not extend to the time of delivery. The Z-score of EFW confirmed that our Chinese fetal growth charts differed from previously published standards. Conclusion::This study provides EFW and ultrasound biometric reference measurements for Chinese fetuses and reveals differences from other fetal growth charts. The chart is worth promoting in more regions of China but should be tested prudently before use.

Objective To understand the occurrence and the related risk factors of birth defects. Methods Descriptive analysis was conducted on birth detect surveillance in the infants during January 2008 to June 2014. Results A total of 777 cases of birth defect were detected in 73498 infants, and the incidence of birth defect was 1.06%. The 5 most common birth de-fects were congenital heart disease, multi ifnger (toe), hypospadias, cleft lip, and palate and deformity of external ear. Compared infants born with no birth defects, male, preterm, low birth weight, twin and multiple births and resident were statistically higher in infants with birth defects (P<0.05). The major risk factors of birth defects were the medication history, spontaneous abortion, gestational diabetes mellitus, and family history. Conclusions The incidence of birth defect can be reduced by providing good health care during pre-marriage and pregnant so as to decrease the occurrence of premature infants, twins and multiple births, and low birth weight as well as improving prenatal diagnosis and intensifying birth defects surveillance.

To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of stress urinary incontinence in women of Miyun County.Questionnaire survey was conducted in 8665 residents selected from urban and rural areas of Miyun County.Total 8663 questionnaires were completed with a response rate of 99.98％.The prevalence of urinary incontinence was 34.43％ (2983/8663),among which 1790 cases were of stress type with a prevalence rate of 20.66％,414 cases were of urgent type with a prevalence rate of 4.78％ and 779 cases were of mixed type with a prevalence rate of 8.99％.The risk factors of the stress urinary incontinence were advanced age(OR =1.555),BMI≥24 kg/m2 (OR =0.556),alcohol drinking(OR =1.308),constipation (OR =1.360),delivery times≥3(OR =1.998),history of macrosomia-bearing (OR =0.572).

Objective To investigate the expression and the significance of a group of metastasis-associated proteins in invasive ductal breast carcinoma(IDC).Methods Tissue microarray containing 247 IDC specimens was constructed.The expressions of ?-B crystallin,CD44v6,MMP-2 and TIMP-2 were detected by immunohistochemistry,and the relation between the expression of these proteins and the clinicopathologic character was analyzed.Results(1) The expression rates of ?-B crystallin,CD44v6,MMP-2 and TIMP-2 in IDC were 70.0%,61.5%,57.5% and 57.1% respectively,and significantly higher than those of normal breast tissues(P
