Objective To understand the equity and influencing factors of maternal health service utilization in Changning District, Shanghai. Methods A convenience sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey among mothers of children aged 1 to 1.5 years old who received health services from the child health care clinics and EPI clinics of 10 community health service centers in Changning District, Shanghai from March to April 2022. Count data was expressed by frequency and percentage. Chi-square analysis, binomial logistic regression analysis, and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze fairness-related factors. Rate difference, rate ratio and concentration index were used to represent fairness. Results A total of 696 subjects were investigated, with an average age of (33.35±4.76) years. There were statistically significant differences in service utilization among women with different household registrations only in early pregnancy registration (χ2=11.026, P=0.001) and postpartum visits (χ2=4.989, P=0.026). Women with a career showed differently in folic acid supplement (χ2=6.247, P=0.012), early pregnancy registration (χ2=12.989, P=0.002), physical examination in 42 days postpartum (χ2=4.446, P=0.035) and postpartum contraception (χ2=4.061, P=0.044), and the differences were statistically significant. Women with different monthly family income had a statistically significant difference in pre-pregnancy examination (χ2=8.977, P=0.030) and postpartum visit (χ2=16.114, P=0.001). There was a statistically significant difference between women with maternity insurance or not in the early pregnancy registration (χ2=10.576, P=0.001) and physical examination in 42 days postpartum (χ2=8.166, P=0.004). The results of the multivariate analysis showed that occupation (OR=2.616, 95% CI: 1.142-5.990) and maternity insurance (OR=4.490, 95% CI: 1.992~10.120) affected the utilization of service in early pregnancy registration. The monthly household income (OR=0.278, 95% CI: 0.124-0.625) affected the utilization of services in postpartum visit. At the same time, the monthly household income (10,000-19,999: OR=0.286, 95% CI: 0.090-0.907; ≥30,000: OR=0.180, 95% CI: 0.041-0.801) also affected the utilization of service in physical examination in 42 days postpartum. Conclusion The equity of maternal health care service utilization overall is good in central area in Shanghai, but there is still room for improvement. It is necessary to strengthen community mobilization, propagandize maternal health services, and expand the coverage of maternity insurance to improve the equity of maternal health service utilization and provide equal access to maternity health services.

Recurrent spontaneous abortion(RSA)has complex etiologies,including embryonic chromosomal abnormalities,maternal immune factors,prethrombotic states,and uterine anatomical a-nomalies.Currently,the pathogenesis of RSA remains incompletely elucidated,with placental tropho-blast dysfunction considered a key factor contributing to pregnancy failure.Recent studies have dem-onstrated that non-coding RNA(ncRNA)are stably expressed at the maternal-fetal interface and reg-ulate the proliferation,apoptosis,invasion,and metastasis of trophoblast immune cells.The ncRNA can directly modulate target gene expression or influence the occurrence and progression of RSA through competitive endogenous RNA(ceRNA)regulatory networks,providing novel targets for re-searchers exploring the pathogenesis of RSA.Additionally,ncRNA mediate intercellular interactions via vesicular transport,offering new insights into their regulatory mechanisms.Due to their tissue spe-cificity and expression stability,ncRNA are promising as novel biomarkers for RSA and other preg-nancy-related disorders.This review summarized the regulatory roles of ncRNA in the immune mecha-nisms underlying the occurrence and development of RSA based on multiple domestic and internation-al studies.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for chronic disease management in grass-root institution . METHODS System structure design and audit class setting of the regional pretrial center in Changning district of Shanghai were introduced. The number of prescriptions/medical orders from the start of application to February 28,2022 were counted. The prescriptions/medical orders intercepted by the system ,prescriptions/medical orders intervened by physicians ,chronic disease types and drug use of regional multiple chronic diseases were counted and analyzed. RESULTS Compared with the data when the center was on line in September 2021,total qualified rate of prescriptions/medical orders (97.67% vs. 86.42%)significantly increased ,the number of prescriptions/ medical orders intercepted by the system and intervened by physicians decreased by 55.39% and 72.67% in February 2022, respectively. The top five diseases were hypertension (26.52%),coronary heart disease (20.53%),sleep disorders (16.71%),diabetes(15.24%)and bone diseases (14.09%). Among them , there were many problematic prescriptions involving coronary heart disease ,sleep disorder and bone disease. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of chronic diseases among community residents remains high. In addition to common chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease ,hypertension and diabetes ,the incidence of sleep disorders and bone diseases is also increasing. With the help of the regional pretrial center ,the focus of chronic disease management can be adjusted timely ,drug supervision can be carried out in real time so as to improve the level of rational drug use in grass-root institution.

Journal of Shanghai Jiaotong University(Medical Science) 2020;40(3):362-367
Objective: To explore the relationship between aggressive behavior, dopamine receptor D4 (DRD4) exon III 48 bp variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) and personality characteristics in patients with bipolar disorder. Methods: From January 2015 to December 2018, 173 patients with bipolar disorder were selected from Shanghai Changning Mental Health Center, Shanghai Jing'an Mental Health Center, Shanghai Xuhui Mental Health Center, and Shanghai Jiading Central Hospital. According to the score of Modified Overt Aggression scale (MOAS), 173 patients were divided into aggressive behavior group (research group) and non-aggressive behavior group (control group). General survey and the temperament and personality questionnaire (Temperature and Character Inventory, TCI) were carried out, respectively. The polymorphism of DRD4 gene were genotyped by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Genetic equilibrium test of genotype Hardy-Weinberg and the difference of genotype frequency between the two groups were analyzed by using SHEsis software. The relationship between aggression behavior and DRD4 gene polymorphism and personality traits in bipolar disorder patients was analyzed by χ2 test and t test. Results: There was no significant difference in the general data between research group and control group (P>0.05). Six alleles and nine genotypes of DRD4 exon III 48 bp VNTR were detected. The most common alleles in the two groups were four repeat alleles. There were statistical differences in the frequency distribution of genotypes and alleles of DRD4 exon III 48 bp VNTR between the two groups (P=0.040, P=0.018). The scores of novelty seeking and harm avoidance in the research group were higher than those in the control group (P=0.026, P=0.000), while the scores of cooperativeness and self-directedness were lower than those in the control group (both P=0.000). Patients with long repeat alleles had significantly higher scores in novelty seeking and harm avoidance, and lower scores in cooperativeness, compared with patients with short repeat alleles (P=0.000, P=0.006, P=0.038). Conclusion: Aggressive behavior in patients with bipolar disorder may be associated with DRD4 exon III 48 bp VNTR. In bipolar disorder, patients with aggressive behavior have unique personality characteristics in impulsiving, novelty-seeking, exploring, being afraid of uncertainty, revengeful, behaving himself and so on. Patients with long repeat alleles have more significant personality abnormalities.

OBJECTIVETo identify the potential determinants of return to work (RTW) following work-related injury.
METHODSA historical cohort of workers with occupational injury in a state-owned locomotive vehicle company in central China was followed up for RTW. Demographic, employment and medical information was retrieved from the company archival documents; and post-injury information was interviewed by questionnaires. Univariate analysis and Cox Regression Model were used to examine the associations between potential determinants and outcomes of RTW.
RESULTSThree hundred of the 323 included cases (92.9%) eventually returned to work after the median absence of 43 days (average of 49.2 days). Factors from socio-demographic, clinical, economic and psychological domains were found affecting RTW in the univariate analyses. The multivariate analysis indicated that age, injury severity, injury locus, injury nature, pain in the injury locus, self-reported health status and pre-injury monthly salary were significant determinants of RTW.
CONCLUSIONSThere are multidimensional factors affecting RTW after occupational injury. Proper clinical treatment and rehabilitation, as well as economic and social support to facilitate workers' RTW would be the priorities for intervention. Future studies should be conducted in a larger representative sample to confirm the findings and to develop a multidisciplinary intervention strategy towards promoting RTW.
