ObjectiveTo understand the utilization of preconception healthcare services and the influencing factors among the women expecting additional childbirth in Jiading District， Shanghai， and to provide references for promoting the utilization of preconception healthcare services under the new population policy. MethodsA questionnaire survey on the utilization of preconception healthcare services and related influencing factors was carried out among 682 women expecting additional childbirth across six subdistricts in Jiading District， Shanghai. The results were statistically analyzed. ResultsThe average age of the women was （31.7±4.5） years， 30.2% of whom were ≥35 years old. The proportion of women having their third or subsequent children was low， at 16.4%. A significant majority， 92.4%， were found to have various risk factors during initial pregnancy screening. The utilization rate of preconception healthcare services among women seeking additional childbirth was relatively low at 26.7%. Awareness of the free preconception check-up program in Jiading District was also low at 28.6%， and the utilization rate for these services was even lower at 7.69%. Unplanned pregnancies were the primary reason for not utilizing preconception healthcare services， accounting for 63.6%. The results of multifactorial binary logistic regression analysis showed that the utilization rate of preconception healthcare services before the current pregnancy was higher for women aged between 35 and 39 compared to women aged ≤29 years old （OR=1.789， 95%CI： 1.033‒3.099）. Women with planned pregnancies had a higher utilization of preconception healthcare services prior to this pregnancy （OR=4.164， 95%CI： 2.627‒6.602）. Women who had received preconception care prior to their first birth had a higher utilization rate of preconception care prior to the current pregnancy （OR=7.534， 95%CI： 4.954‒11.456）. Women without a family history of chronic diseases had a higher utilization rate of preconception healthcare services （OR=1.903， 95%CI： 1.083‒3.345）. ConclusionUnder the context of three-child policy， the proportion of women seeking three or more children in Jiading District is low. Most of these women have risk factors identified during initial pregnancy screenings. The utilization rate of preconception healthcare services and the awareness of the free preconception screening program in Jiading District are both low. Unplanned pregnancies remain the primary reason for failing to receive timely preconception healthcare services. Age， whether the pregnancy was planned， whether the women had received preconception healthcare services before their first baby and family history of chronic diseases are the main factors affecting the utilization of preconception healthcare services. Relevant departments should enhance the promotion of preconception healthcare service programs， especially for women of childbearing age who have not yet given birth， so as to improve the utilization rate of preconception health care services.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and clinical efficacy of Neuroform EZ stent in the treatment of severe intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS).Methods:A total of 36 patients with severe ICAS receiving Neuroform EZ stent angioplasty were retrospectively analyzed at Beijing Anzhen Hospital from July 2018 to January 2020. Digital subtraction angiography (DSA) before endovascular intervention confirmed the diagnosis. Follow-up information was reviewed by neurologists at 30 days and 6 months after the procedure. The primary endpoints were transient ischemic attack (TIA), ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke and death caused by any reason within 30 days.Results:The overall technical success rate was 100%. The median stenosis rate was reduced from 93.6%±4.5% to 18.8%±11.2% ( t=37.36, P<0.001).Primary endpoint event was not reported. During follow-up, one patient developed TIA and no death or ischemic stroke was observed. No in-stent restenosis at six months occurred. Conclusion:Neuroform EZ stent is safe and effective in patients with severe ICAS. However, perspective studies need to be operated for further validation via long-term follow-up.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between serum miR-199a-5p and miR-378a-3p levels and the recurrence of infants with proliferative facial hemangioma relapsed after propranolol withdrawal in infants. Methods: Ninety-three infants with proliferative facial hemangioma were selected, all of whom received propranolol treatment. The recurrence of the hemangioma after treatment was followed up, and the children were divided into a recurrence group (23 patients) and a nonrecurrence group (70 patients). Venous blood was collected before and after treatment, and the serum levels of miR-199a-5p and miR-378a-3p were detected by qRT-PCR, and the relationship between the serum levels of miR-199a-5p and miR-378a-3p and the recurrence of proliferative facial hemangioma relapsed after propranolol withdrawal in infants was analyzed. Results : The serum expressions levels of miR-199a-5p and miR-378a-3p in non-relapsed group were increased after treatment compared with before treatment (P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference in the levels of miR-199a-5p and miR-378a-3p in the serum of the recurrence group after treatment compared with before treatment (P > 0.05). After treatment, the levels of miR-199a-5p and miR-378a-3p in the serum of the recurrence group were lower than those of the nonrecurrence group (P < 0.05). After treatment, the serum levels of miR-199a-5p and miR-378a-3p in patients with Ⅲ ~Ⅳ Norm grade hemangioma were higher than those in patients with Ⅰ~Ⅱ Norm grade hemangioma (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the low expression of miR-199a-5p, low expression of miR-378a-3p and tumor grade Ⅰ~Ⅱ after treatment were risk factors for the recurrence of proliferative facial hemangioma after propranolol withdrawal in infants (P < 0.05). Conclusion Low serum levels of miR-199a-5p and miR-378a-3p are associated with the recurrence of proliferative facial hemangioma after propranolol withdrawal in infants.

ObjectiveTo understand the influencing factors of women’s intention to utilize preconception health care services， so as to promote the utilization of preconception care among women with future pregnancy plan. MethodsThe study was conducted at 8 outpatient health clinics of medical institutions providing perinatal health care in Jiading District of Shanghai. Women who had fertility intention for another child were invited to complete an electronic questionnaire from November 2020 to February 2021. ResultsWomen with better pregnancy and birth care behaviors during the last periconception were more likely to utilize preconception care service before the next conception than those with previous poorer behaviors （OR=1.980， 95%CI= 1.061‒3.694， P=0.032）. Women with higher preconception care knowledge scores had better pregnancy and birth care behaviors during the last periconception than those with lower knowledge scores （OR=1.362， 95%C1= 1.004‒1.846， P=0.047）. ConclusionsIn order to improve the utilization of preconception care among the population with future pregnancy plan， it is necessary to further strengthen health education and social mobilization to promote the preconception eugenic knowledge， planned pregnancy and pregnancy and birth care behaviors.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of submaximal balloon dilation and to perform small-diameter stent for symptomatic carotid artery severely stenosis before coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG).Methods:From January 2016 to December 2019, 30 patients of the Department of Neurointervention in Beijing Anzhen Hospital with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis(≥70%) and the left main trunk or triple-vessel of coronary artery disease were analyzed retrospectively. General information, clinical characteristics, and imaging data of all cases were collected. All patients underwent submaximal balloon dilation and small-diameter stent implantation. Preoperative comorbidities or risk factors included hypertension 23 cases(76.7%), diabetes 10 cases(33.3%), hyperglycemia 14 cases(46.7%), moking 13 cases(43.3%). Left main trunk disease 6 cases(20.0%), three-vessels disease 24 cases(80.0%), mitral regurgitation 1 case(3.3%), stable angina 25 cases(83.3%), myocardial infarction 8 cases(26.7%), cerebral infarction 24 cases(80.0%) and transient ischemia attack(TIA) 6 cases(20.0%) caused by ipsilateral carotid artery stenosis. The median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) score was 2(0-3), and the median modified Rankin Scale(mRS) score was 1(0-1) before the operation. The mean interval between carotid artery intervention and CABG was(23.4±8.2)days.Results:29 cases(96.7%, 29/30) underwent CAS-CABG operation successfully. In one case of carotid artery extreme tortuosity, the emboli protective device could not place the distal carotid artery. In the operative procedure, 27 cases(90.0%, 27/30) underwent with 3mm diameter balloon, only 3 cases(10.0%) with 3 mm balloon after pre-dilatation with 2 mm diameter balloon because of severely high-grade stenosis(99%). 25 cases(83.3%) with 7mm diameter stents and 5 cases(16.7%) with 6 mm diameter stents, including 22 cases(73.3%) with a closed-cell stent and 8 cases(26.7%) with an open-cell stent. In the perioperative period, the heart rate of two patients was lower than 50 BPM during operation and returned to normal after using atropine immediately. Another patient presented with chest tightness during interventional therapy. TNI elevation was examined urgently. After oxygen inhalation and intravenous infusion of Nitroglycerin, the patient's symptoms improved rapidly. No cardiac and cerebrovascular complications occurred during the perioperative period of CABG, no cardiac-related complications occurred within 30 days of follow-up, one case of TIA and 1 case of cerebral infarction. After intensive anti-platelet aggregation and lipid-lowering treatment, two patient's symptoms improved. There were no death cases in all patients during carotid artery interventional therapy, perioperative CABG and 30-day follow-up. Thirty days later, we performed a clinical follow-up of 23 cases, median 4.5(3.0-7.9) months, mRS Score Median 1(0-1). One patient presented with TIA, any patient had no symptoms of the cardiac or nervous system. Image follow-up of 17 cases, median 3.5(2.8-4.5) months, carotid artery ultrasound showed in-stent restenosis(stenosis rate>50%) in 1 case, the patient was asymptomatic restenosis, continue treatment of aggressive anti-platelet and lipid-lowering drugs.Conclusion:Submaximal balloon dilation and performing small-diameter stent for symptomatic carotid artery severely stenosis before CABG is safe and feasible, which could not only reduce the incidence of vagus reflex resulted in acute coronary syndrome during carotid artery stenosis intervention but also morbidity of acute ischemic stroke events during CABG.

Objective To explore whether CT perfusion imaging (CTPI)parameters can early predict the curative effect of anlotinib hydrochloride and their predictive accuracy for the treatment in lung cancer patients.Methods 2 6 patients with advanced nonGsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC)were treated with anlotinib hydrochloride and underwent CTPI scanning before chemotherapy,after the first and second treatment cycle respectively.The average values of perfusion value (PV),peak enhancement image (PEI),time to peak (TTP),blood volume (BV)and the change rate of these parameters after one treatment cycle every time were measured and recorded. According to the response evaluation criteria in solid tumors 1.1 (RECIST1.1),the maximum diameter of the target tumor was measured and the tumor regression rate after two treatment cycles was calculated.Then a correlation analysis was conducted between the change rate of perfusion parameters (PV%,PEI%,TTP%,BV%)after one treatment cycle and the tumor regression rate (D%)after two treatment cycles. The ROC curve was performed to evaluate the accuracy of those parameters.Results PV after one treatment cycle was significantly lower than that before treatment,and PV% showed a statistical difference (P＝0.00).The PV% after one treatment cycle was positively correlated with D% after two treatment cycles (r＝0.56).In addition,the AUC of PV% and BV% were 0.99 and 0.88 respectively, and specificity were both 100%,with sensitivity respectively 75.7% and 82.6%.Conclusion CTPI can early reflect the curative effect of anlotinib hydrochloride for advanced NSCLC and provide more options for clinical evaluation.

Objective To investigate the expression of programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in lung adenocarcinoma tissues and its correlation with clinicopathological features of patients. Methods A total of 141 paraffin-embedded specimens of patients with newly diagnosed lung adenocarcinoma by pathology from January to August 2018 in the Affiliated Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School were collected. The expression of PD-L1 in the tumor cells (TC) and tumor-infiltrating immune cells (IC) were detected by immunohistochemistry EnVision staining. Based on the percentage of expression, PD-L1 in TC and IC were divided into TC3 (≥50％), TC2 (≥5％ and <50％), TC1 (≥1％ and <5％), and TC0 (<1％); IC3 (≥10％), IC2 (≥5％ and <10％), IC1 (≥1％ and <5％), and IC0 (<1％). Results PD-L1 expression was positive in 90 cases, and the positive rate was 63.8％ (90/141) at a TC1 or IC1 threshold. When a TC3 or IC3 threshold was applied, PD-L1 expression was positive in 17 cases, and the positive rate was 12.1％ (17/141). In the TC1 or IC1 threshold group, PD-L1 expressions were different in patients with different sex, nerve invasion and pleural invasion, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). While in the TC3 or IC3 threshold group, PD-L1 expressions were different in patients with different cell differentiation, clinical stage, lymphocyte infiltration, vascular invasion and nerve invasion, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). In both TC1 or IC1 threshold group and TC3 or IC3 threshold group, PD-L1 expression was associated with nerve invasion (both P < 0.05). Conclusions PD-L1 expression is associated with nerve invasion. PD-L1 inhibitors expect to be used as a potential treatment strategy for recurrent and progressive lung adenocarcinoma patients with high level expression of PD-L1.

Objective: To investigate the predictive value of transient elastography (FibroScan), aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index (APRI) in the detection of esophagogastric varices in patients with liver cirrhosis. Methods: 236 patients with liver cirrhosis who met the criteria were selected. All patients underwent gastroscopy. According to the degree of esophagogastric varices, patients were divided into four groups: none, mild, moderate, and severe. The patient's liver stiffness (LSM) and aspartate aminotransferase- to-platelet ratio index (APRI) were measured within 3 days of gastroscopy. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare multi-group data. The ROC curves of LSM, APRI, LSM+APRI in patients with liver cirrhosis with esophageal varices were plotted and their area under the ROC curve (AUC) were compared. Results: The area under the ROC curve of LSM, APRI, LSM + APRI in patients with mild esophagogastric varices were 0.856, 0.900, and 0.906, respectively; moderate esophagogastric varices were 0.857, 0.924, and 0.923 respectively; and severe esophagogastric varices were 0.801, 0.903, and 0.901, respectively. Conclusion APRI and LSM+APRI have better predictive value for patients with cirrhosis who have esophagogastric varices.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical efficacy of long-time needle retaining at Baihui (GV 20) on post-stroke cognitive disorder of deficiency and blood stasis. METHODS: A total of 70 patients (3 cases dropping) with post-stroke cognitive disorder of deficiency and blood stasis were randomized into an observation group (34 cases) and a control group (33 cases). Neurological routine treatment and western medicine rehabilitation therapy were given in the control group as the basic treatment, on the basis of the treatment as the control group, long-time needle retaining at Baihui (GV 20) was applied in the observation group. The treatment was given once every other day, 3 times a week for a total of 4 weeks. The National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS), mini-mental state examination (MMSE), Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) and deficiency blood stasis syndrome scale score were observed before and after treatment, and the clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. RESULTS: After 4 weeks of treatment, the NIHSS scores of the two groups were lower than those before treatment (both <0.01), and the MMSE and MoCA scores were higher than those before treatment (<0.05, <0.01), and the scores in the observation group were better than those in the control group (all <0.01). After treatment, the scores of deficiency and blood stasis syndrome were lower than those before treatment (all <0.01). The scores of the shortness of breath, facial color, tongue pulse and dizziness in the observation group were better than those in the control group (all <0.05), there was no significant difference in the degree of spontaneous sweating between the two groups (>0.05). The total effective rate was 94.1% (32/34) in the observation group, which was higher than 75.8% (25/33) in the control group (<0.05). CONCLUSION Long-time needle retaining at Baihui (GV 20) is safe and effective in treating with post-stroke cognitive disorder of deficiency and blood stasis.
