【Objective】 To study the effects of gestational diabetes (GDM) on morphological structure of brain tissue and microribonucleotide (miRNA) expression profile in neonatal mice, and to provide a new research target for the prevention and treatment of abnormal neurodevelopment in GDM progeny. 【Methods】 The pregnant mice were divided into model group and control group,each group consisted of 10 mice. The model group mice established a GDM model by injecting streptozotocin to measure fasting blood glucose (FPG) and random blood glucose (GLU) at different times. Successful molded mice were randomly divided into model group A and model group C, and control mice were divided into control group B and control group D, with 5 mice in each group. The newborn mice in groups A and B were used for hippocampal tissue GeneChip detection and brain morphology structure observation, and group C and D newborn mice were used for qRT-PCR detection of hippocampus tissue expression differences to verify the differentially expressed genes of miRANs obtained by GeneChip screening. After giving birth, the neonatal mice were sacrificed by decapitation, and the brain tissue was dissected to observe the overall morphological structure. The structural changes of hippocampus were observed under HE chromogenic microscope. The Agilent mouse miRNA oligonucleotide gene chip was used to detect the miRNA expression profile of mouse hippocampus, screen differential miRNAs and predict their target genes, and conduct GO analysis and signal transduction pathway analysis of target genes. The relative expression levels of the screened miRNAs were verified by qRT-PCR. 【Results】 Compared with the control group, the GLU increased significantly from the 3rd day after drug administration in the model group (P<0.01). Macroscopic observation of control group B mice had normal brain morphology and structure, smooth appearance, clear gyrus, close arrangement of hippocampus cell structure, uniform staining and complete structure; in model group A, the number of hippocampus cells decreased, loose arrangement and deep staining. In the initial screen of miRNA microarray, there were 11 differentially expressed miRNAs between control and model groups, all of which were downregulated miRNAs, including let-7b-5p、miR-130b-3p、miR-181c-5p、miR-181d-5p、miR-3099-3p、miR-3470a、miR-3473a、miR-3473b、miR-500-3p、miR-532-5p、miR-7047-5p(P<0.05). Two miRNAs (miR-3473b, miR-7047-75p) and 5 target genes (MAPK3, MAPK11, MAPK14, CALM3, AKT3). The relative expression of miR-3473b and miR-7047-5p in model group C were lower than that in control group D (t=19.13 and 6.24, P<0.05), and the validation results were consistent with the microarray test results. 【Conclusion】 Compared with the offspring of normal pregnant mice, GDM offspring mice have abnormal development of brain structure and damage of hippocampal nerve cells, and there are a large number of abnormal expression of miRNAs in hippocampal tissue. Differentially expressed miRNAs can be used as research targets for prevention and treatment of GDM offspring neurodevelopmental abnormalities.

Objective:
To investigate the biocompatibility of copper-gadolinium nanomaterials and their antibacterial efficacy againstEscherichia coli(E.coli).
Methods:
Copper-gadolinium nanomaterials were prepared using a hydrothermal method, and the samples were characterized and analyzed using instruments such as transmission electron microscopy. The biocompatibility of copper-gadolinium nanomaterials was evaluated through CCK-8 experiments with mouse fibroblast cells(L929). Copper-gadolinium nanomaterials were co-cultured withE.coli, and their antibacterial performance was observed and assessed.
Results:
Transmission electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy analysis confirmed the synthesis of the copper-gadolinium nanomaterials. The CCK-8 experiment results showed that the material had reliable biocompatibility within a concentration range of 0-2 μg/ml. The antibacterial experiments verified the excellent anti-E.coliactivity of copper-gadolinium, with the antibacterial effect positively correlating with concentration and co-cultivation time. When copper-gadolinium nanomaterials at a concentration of 2 μg/ml were co-cultured withE.colifor 4 hours, the antibacterial rate reached 99.99%.
Conclusion
The 2 μg/ml copper-gadolinium nanomaterials exhibit reliable biocompatibility and excellent anti-E.colicapabilities.

Objective:To investigate the association between levator hiatus area, pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q) examination and prolapse symptoms.Methods:The prospective multicenter study enrolled 996 female patients between January 2017 and January 2019. All enrolled patients underwent a standard clinical interview, POP-Q examination and transperineal ultrasound examination. Volume data of pelvic floor ultrasound examinations were obtained at rest, during contraction and during maximal Valsalva maneuver. The association between levator hiatus area, POP-Q examination and prolapse symptoms was analyzed. The performance of levator hiatus area on maximal Valsalva for assessing significant POP(POP-Q stage≥2) and prolapse symptoms were also evaluated.Results:There were significant differences of levator hiatus area at rest, during contraction and during maximal Valsalva among patients with different POP-Q stages (all P<0.001). Levator hiatus area during maximal Valsalva showed the highest correlation with abdominal dragging sensation ( r=0.277, P<0.001). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of levator hiatus area during maximal Valsalva for significant POP (POP-Q stage≥2) was significantly higher than that for prolapse symptoms (AUC: 0.77 vs 0.69, P<0.001). Conclusions:Levator hiatus area on transperineal has moderate correlation with POP-Q examination and their association is stronger than the correlation between ultrasound findings and prolapse symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of transperineal ultrasound in quantitative assessment of posterior compartment prolapse among Chinese women.Methods:The prospective multicenter study enrolled 485 women between January 2017 and January 2019. All patients underwent a standard clinical interview, pelvic organ prolapse quantification (POP-Q) examination and transperineal ultrasound examination. Volume data of transperineal ultrasound examinations were obtained at rest and in maximal Valsalva maneuver.Results:The higher POP-Q stage of posterior compartment, the lower rectal ampulla position in maximal Valsalva maneuver (POP-Q stage=0 vs POP-Q stage=1, P<0.001; POP-Q stage=1 vs POP-Q stage≥2, P<0.001), and the greater rectal ampulla hypermobility (POP-Q stage=0 vs POP-Q stage=1, P<0.001; POP-Q stage=1 vs POP-Q stage≥ 2, P=0.007). The rectal ampulla position at rest and in maximal Valsalva maneuver and rectocele depth were correlated with prolapse symptoms ( r=-0.200, P<0.001; r=-0.252, P<0.001; r=0.086, P=0.045). The corresponding cut-off values of rectal ampulla position in maximal Valsalva in diagnosing posterior compartment prolapse (POP-Q stage ≥1) and clinical significant posterior compartment prolapse (POP-Q stage ≥2) were 7.32 mm below the symphysis pubis and 12 mm below the symphysis pubis, respectively, with the area under the ROC curve as 0.75 and 0.85, respectively. Conclusions:The ultrasonic measurements by transperineal ultrasound is significantly associated with POP-Q examination in posterior compartment, and it is demonstrated as a useful tool in quantitative assessment of the severity of posterior compartment prolapse.

Objective To observe the difference in the effect of chest compression quality between the traditional training (TT) and the standard video training (SVT). Methods A total of 197 graduate students were divided into two groups according to the different training methods: group A (traditional modality, n=98) and group B (video training modality, n=99). After training for 2 hours, all trainees were asked to practice CPR on a resuscitation manikin for 2 minutes under the monitoring of CPR quality by a feedback system with trainee's back towards compute monitor. The data of chest compression rate (times/min), average depth (cm) and chest compression release velocity (CCRV, mm/ s) were collected and analyzed. Results Compared with TT, the mean compression depth in SVT was (5.42 ± 0.07) cm vs. (5.33±0.08) cm; the effective rate of CPR in SVT was (115±1.034) /min vs. (113.6±1.152) times/min; the mean CCRV in SVT was (439.7±7.72) mm/s vs. (417.3±7.64) mm/s in the first minute (P<0.05) and (403.9±7.22) vs. (384.5±8.48) mm/s in the second minute (P>0.05). Conclusions There were no significant differences on improving the quality of CPR between the two groups. The video training showed no significant effectivity on improving the quality of CPR compared with the traditional way.
