The traumatic childbirth experience of mothers after emergency cesarean section(EmCS) in China: a descriptive qualitative study.

Background: Emergency cesarean section (EmCS) is an effective means to save the lives of the mother and fetus. Women who undergo EmCS experience sudden physiological changes and high level of psychological stress response due to its complexity, risks, and urgency. They may consider their delivery as traumatic childbirth.

Mindin is upregulated during colitis and may activate NF-kappaB in a TLR-9 mediated manner.

Aim: To investigate the regulation of mindin expression and the signaling pathway involved during inflammation.

Methods: C57BL/6 mice were treated with 3% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) in drinking water for 6 d to induce acute colitis, and then the colon was harvested for histological analysis or for RNA isolation. mRNA expression of mindin and nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB p65 was analyzed by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and mindin expression construct was confirmed by Western blotting.
