We retrospectively reviewed clinical records of pregnant women who underwent obstetric examination and delivered in Fujian Maternal and Child Healthcare from December 2013 to December 2016. Pregnant women with a clear diagnosis of PROM, who underwent cervical secretion culture immediately after hospital admission were selected for the study.

Methods: A random sampling method was adopted. A total of 600 primiparas who were diagnosed with early pregnancy in a first-class hospital in southeast China and received continuous prenatal health education from May to July 2020 were selected as the research subjects.
Objectives: Improper gestational weight gain (GWG) causes many adverse obstetrical and neonatal outcomes. This study evaluates the relationship between weight gain in different phases and maternal outcomes or neonatal outcomes.
Material And Methods: Finally, this study recruited 2,608 women delivered at Fujian Provincial Maternity and Child Health, affiliated hospital of Fujian Medical University from December 2017 to January 2019.

Objective: This study evaluated whether paternal body mass index (BMI) before pregnancy was a risk factor for maternal-neonatal outcomes and long-term prognosis in offspring.
Methods: This study included 29,518 participants from eight cities in Fujian, China using a stratified cluster random sampling method from May to September 2019. They were divided into four groups based on paternal BMI.

Objective: To explore the relationship between HBV-DNA load and the offspring vertical transmission of HBV.
Methods: 138 families who had taken the examination between August 2009 and November 2011 but the HBsAg of the housewife was negative, were chosen as research objects. Blood from the couples and sperms from the husbands during pregnancy were followed and collected for detection on related indicators.

Objective: To explore the risk factors and the rate of HBV vertical transmission from HBsAg-positive couple to their infant.
Methods: 46 families who had antenatal examination at Fujian Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital during August 2010 and November 2011 were chosen as research object. Cord blood was sampled after delivery for HBVM and HBV-DNA quantification.

Objective: To explore the role of maternal physiology, mentality and prenatal health care on low birth weight (LBW).
Methods: A LBW-small for gestation age (SGA)-control group retrospective study was conducted based upon a population of infants born from November 2004 to June 2006. 896 cases involved in this study were entirely under voluntary participation and subject could withdraw their consent at any point.

Objective: To explore the prevalence of syphilis and risk factors on pregnant women in Fujian province.
Methods: From July 1st, 2004 to June 30th, 2006, epidemiologic methods as questionnaires to fill in and rapid plasma reagent testing (RPR) were performed. Pregnant women with positive RPR test and then were confirmed by treponema pallidum test (TP).
Objective: To explore the maternal-fetal transmission patterns and interventional methods of syphilis during pregnancy.
Methods: A total of 847 cases of syphilis in pregnancy confirmed by rapid plasma reagin test (RPR) and treponema pallidum hemoagglutination test (TPHA) were treated with procaine benzylpenicillin intramuscular injection, and with erythrocin oral medication if hypersensitive to benzylpenicillin. Eight hundred forty seven cases of syphilis during pregnancy were followed up for pregnancy outcomes.

Objective: To study the prevalence and principal rules of women with syphilis during pregnancy and to develop relative methods to prevent maternal-fetal transmission.
Methods: A nested case control study on epidemiologic research was used based on review and preview methods on prevention and cure. Targeting pregnant women with syphilis diagnosed during premarital or pregnancy stages and were identified through rapid plasma reagin test (RPR) but confirmed by treponema pallidum test (TP),a total number of 339 women receiving treatment, intervention and being followed throughout the pregnant and neonatal periods.
