Background: Postpartum psychiatric disorders (PPDs) have been deemed as a significant public health concern, affecting both maternal health and family dynamics. This study aimed to examine the current status of PPDs, identify the potential risk factors of PPDs, and further develop a clinical nomogram model for predicting PPDs in Chinese women.

Method: In this retrospective cohort study, 1418 postpartum women attending the routine postpartum examination at the 42nd day after delivery in Jiangsu Women and Children Health Hospital were recruited as participants from December 2020 to December 2022.

Exposure to the antibacterial agent triclosan (TCS) is associated with abnormal placenta growth and fetal development during pregnancy. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) is crucial in placenta development. However, the mechanism of PPARγ in placenta injury induced by TCS remains unknown.

Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) is a persistent environmental pollutant. Exposure to PFOS has been associated with abnormal fetal development. The long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has been showed to play a role in fetal growth restriction (FGR), preeclampsia (PE) and other pregnancy complications.

Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS), a persistent environmental pollutant, has adverse effects on gestation pregnancy. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ () is involved in angiogenesis, metabolic processes, anti-inflammatory, and reproductive development. However, the function of in PFOS evoked disadvantageous effects on the placenta remain uncertain.

Background: To investigate the changes in pelvic floor electrical physiological parameters in nulliparous women with stress urinary incontinence (SUI).

Methods: A retrospective survey was conducted on 922 women aged 20-40 years who received health examinations at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between July 2017 and December 2019. The women were split into two groups: those who had SUI (n=87) and those that did not (n=835).

Perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS), a persistent environmental pollutant, has been associated with decreased birth weight. The dysregulation of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 has been implicated in pregnancy complications such as intra-uterine growth retardation (IUGR), preeclampsia (PE), however, the expression and function of H19 in PFOS-exerted detrimental effects in the placenta remains to be unveiled. Here, we explored the role of H19 in PFOS-induced placental toxicity.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the effectiveness and complications of the Ritleng lacrimal intubation system in treating congenital nasolacrimal duct obstruction in children, specifically those aged 5 to 40 months.
  • A total of 148 patients (187 eyes) underwent the procedure, with a successful symptom relief rate of 95.2%, and most patients experienced a significant reduction in symptoms like dacryorrhea soon after surgery.
  • While the procedure was largely successful and had minimal complications (e.g., epistaxis and silicone tube prolapse), the results suggest it is a safe and effective option for treating this condition.
