[Molecular epidemiological characterization of hypervirulent carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae in a hospital in Henan Province from 2020 to 2022].

Objective: The study investigated the clinical distribution, antimicrobial resistance and epidemiologic characteristics of hypervirulent Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (hv-CRKP) in a hospital in Henan Province to provide a scientific basis for antibiotic use and nosocomial infection prevention and control. Methods: A retrospective analysis of the clinical data from the cases was carried out in this study. Clinical data of patients infected with the CRKP strain isolated from the clinical microbiology laboratory of Henan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. A string test, virulence gene screening, serum killing, and a G. mellonella infection model were used to screen hv-CRKP isolates. The clinical characteristics of hv-CRKP and the drug resistance rate of hv-CRKP to twenty-five antibiotics were analyzed using WHONET 5.6. Carbapenemase phenotypic characterization of the hv-CRKP was performed by colloidal gold immunochromatographic assay, and Carbapenemase genotyping, multi-locus sequence typing (MLST) and capsular serotyping of hv-CRKP isolates were performed by PCR and Sanger sequencing. Results: A total of non-duplicate 264 CRKP clinical isolates were detected in the hospital from 2020 to 2022, and 23 hv-CRKP isolates were detected, so the corresponding detection rate of hv-CRKP was 8.71% (23/264). The hv-CRKP isolates in this study were mainly from the intensive care unit (10/23) and neurosurgery department (8/23), and the main sources of hv-CRKP isolates were sputum (10/23) and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (6/23). The hv-CRKP isolates in this study were highly resistant to ß-lactam antibiotics, fluoroquinolones and aminoglycosides, and were only susceptible to colistin, tigecycline and ceftazidime/avibactam. The detection rate of the blaKPC-2 among 23 hv-CRKP isolates was 91.30% (21/23) and none of the class B and class D carbapenemases were detected. Results of MLST and capsular serotypes showed that ST11 type hv-CRKP was the dominant strain in the hospital, accounting for 56.52% (13/23), and K64 (9/13) and KL47 (4/13) were the major capsular serotypes. Conclusion: The hv-CRKP isolates from the hospital are mainly from lower respiratory tract specimens from patients admitted to the intensive care department and the drug resistance is relatively severe. The predominant strains with certain polymorphisms are mainly composed of the KPC-2-producing ST11-K64 and ST11-KL47 hv-CRKP isolates in the hospital.

[Updates and advances in the concept of gallbladder cancer treatment].

The gallbladder is the most common site of tumor occurrence among biliary tract cancer. Gallbladder cancer accounts for approximately 0.6% of new cancers and 0.9% of cancer-related deaths. The risk factors identified for the development of gallbladder cancer include being female,>65 years of age, asymptomatic gallstone disease,and obesity. Surgical resection is the only curative treatment for early-stage gallbladder cancer, and some intermediate or advanced gallbladder cancers can be radically cured by extended resection. However, the extent of liver resection or lymph node dissection and whether to combine it with bile duct removal, revascularisation,and multiple organ resection remain somewhat controversial. After neoadjuvant treatment, up to a third of patients with locally advanced gallbladder cancer benefit from secondary surgical treatment. Only a small proportion of patients with gallbladder cancer at high risk for recurrence will benefit from postoperative adjuvant therapy. With the advent of different target-targeted drugs and the use of genetic tests in biliary tract cancer, targeted therapy and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors may become the new standard of care for gallbladder cancer and need to be further explored.

[Constructions and advances of animal models of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection].

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) is an opportunistic pathogenic bacterium with complex pathogenesis and drug resistance mechanisms. It has high morbidity and mortality and can cause acute and chronic infections in immunocompromised individuals, with lung infections, wound infections, and bloodstream infections being the most common. The animal infection model of P. aeruginosa is of great value for in-depth research on the pathogenicity, drug resistance, and therapeutic measures of P. aeruginosa by simulating the pathways of human bacterial infections. This article firstly summarizes the selection, anesthesia, and disposal of experimental animals in the construction of animal models of P. aeruginosa infection, and then reviews the methods of construction, model evaluation, and applications of animal models of P. aeruginosa pulmonary infection, wound infection, and bloodstream infection, in order to provide a reference for scientific research related to P. aeruginosa infectious diseases.

[Safety and immunogenicity of freeze-dried rabies vaccine (Vero-cells) for human use in healthy people aged 9-65 years].

Objective: To assess the safety and immunogenicity of freeze-dried rabies vaccine (Vero-cells) for human use on different immunization procedures in healthy people aged 9-65 years. Methods: A randomized, blind, positive-controlled clinical study was conducted in March 2015. The eligible residents aged 9-65 were recruited in Dengfeng city and Biyang County, Henan Province. A total of 1 956 subjects were enrolled. The subjects were randomly (1∶1∶1) assigned to 5-dose control group, 4-dose trial group and 5-dose trial group, with 652 subjects in each group. The subjects of 5-dose control group were immunized with control vaccine on days 0, 3, 7, 14 and 28. The subjects of 4-dose trial group were immunized with trial vaccine on days 0, 7 and 21 (2-1-1 phases) and the subjects of 5-dose trial group were immunized with trial vaccine on days 0, 3, 7, 14 and 28. A combination of regular follow-up and active reporting was used to observe local and systemic adverse reactions till 30 days after the first and full immunization, and the incidence rate of adverse reactions in three groups was analyzed and compared. The venous blood was collected before the first immunization, 7 days after the first immunization, 14 days after the first immunization and 14 days after the full immunization. The neutralizing antibody of rabies virus was detected by rapid fluorescent focus inhibition test (RFFIT), and the seropositive conversion rate and geometric mean concentration (GMC) of antibody were calculated. Results: The adverse reaction rates in 5-dose control group, 4-dose trial group and 5-dose trial group were 41.87% (273/652), 35.43% (231/652) and 34.97% (228/652), respectively. The adverse reaction rates of 4-dose trial group and 5-dose trial group were lower than those of the 5-dose control group (P<0.05). The local reactions were mainly pain, itching, swelling and redness in injection site, while the systemic reactions were mainly fever, fatigue, headache and muscle pain. The severity of adverse reactions was mainly mild (level 1), accounting for 85.33% (518/607), 89.02% (373/419) and 88.96% (427/480) of the total number of adverse reactions in each group. At 14 days after the first immunization and 14 days after the full immunization, the antibody positive conversion rates of three groups were all 100%. At 7 days, 14 days after the first immunization and 14 days after the full immunization, the GMCs of three groups were 0.60, 0.72, 0.59 IU/ml, 20.42, 23.99, 24.38 IU/ml and 22.95, 23.52, 24.72 IU/ml, respectively, with no significant difference (P>0.05). Conclusion: The freeze-dried rabies vaccine (Vero-cells) for human use has good safety and immunogenicity when inoculated according to 5-dose and 4-dose immunization procedures.

[Implantation of a monofocal intraocular lens after femtosecond laser intrastromal keratotomy and contralateral implantation of a trifocal IOL: a case report].

An age-related cataract patient who underwent femtosecond laser intrastromal keratotomy in the right eye for presbyopia correction 8 years ago was subjected to femtosecond laser-assisted phacoemulsification, with implantation of a monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) and a trifocal IOL in the right and left eyes, respectively. The corneal stromal ring was complementary to the monofocal IOL, which recovered the distance and near visual acuity, in the right eye postoperatively. The trifocal IOL provided good intermediate visual acuity for the left eye. The vision of the patient reached an ideal level for all visual distances. The binocular fusion was within the normal range, and the stereoscopic vision was restored. We hope that this case report can act as a reference for the treatment of cataract after presbyopia corrective surgery.

Real-time signal processing system based on FPGA for motional Stark effect diagnostic on EAST.

The plasma current density profile plays a key role in the development of a high poloidal beta scenario, which is essential for long-pulse and high-performance plasma operation on a tokamak. Based on the polarimetry technique, a Motional Stark Effect (MSE) diagnostic has been built on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak. To be prepared for real-time (RT) feedback control of the plasma current density profile in the future, a RT signal processing system has been developed. The RT signal processing system is composed of three functional modules: analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) module, polarization information extraction module, and digital-to-analog conversion (DAC) module. The final objective of this system is to acquire the polarization information of the MSE. Based on the field-programmable gate array unit, fast Fourier transformation is adopted to process the Photoelastic Modulator (PEM) digital signal, which was converted from a PEM signal via the ADC module. By means of frequency spectrum separation, the components around double modulating frequencies are restored through inverse fast Fourier transformation. Furthermore, the two amplitudes of their corresponding components can be obtained through a digital harmonic analyzer technique. Afterward, the ratio of the two amplitudes is calculated by arc tangent so that the polarization angle is obtained. Finally, the information of this polarization angle is converted into a voltage signal by the DAC module and then output in RT. The test results based on the RT signal processing system are in good agreement with those based on the phase lock-in amplifiers. The working cycle of this system is shorter than 10 ms, which meets the requirements of the MSE diagnostic as a RT controller. The algorithm of RT signal processing and the relevant technology applied for building this system are presented in the main body of this paper in detail.

Current locoregional therapies and treatment strategies in hepatocellular carcinoma.

Locoregional therapies (lrts) play an important role in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (hcc), with the aim of increasing overall survival while preserving liver function. Various forms of lrt are available, and choosing the best one depends on technical aspects, liver morphology, tumour biology, and the patient's symptoms. The purpose of the present review article is to provide an overview of the current evidence relating to the use of percutaneous ablation, transarterial chemoembolization, and transarterial radioembolization for the curative or palliative treatment of hcc. Special situations are also reviewed, including the combined use of systemic therapy and lrt, indications and techniques for bridging to transplant and downstaging, and the use of lrt to treat patients with hcc and macrovascular invasion.

[Research progress on the regulation mechanism of Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm].

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the common multidrug-resistant bacteria in the clinic. Because it can produce a "protective" biofilm, it can affect the penetration and killing efficacy of antibacterial drugs, leading to the formation of a persistent and persistent chronic infection in the host. Biofilms make Pseudomonas aeruginosa resistant to antibacterials and evasive to the host's immune system. Therefore, traditional conventional antibacterials are difficult to achieve effective bactericidal treatment. Understanding the process of P. aeruginosa biofilm formation and the regulatory mechanisms that affect biofilms can provide ideas and methods for our future research on new antibacterial drugs.

[Application of the Virtual Reality-Pattern Visual Evoked Potential in Forensic Visual Acuity Evaluation].

ABSTRACT: Objective To explore a kind of visual evoked potential test equipment and method that is more suitable for the application of forensic clinical visual acuity evaluation. Methods Thirty-four volunteers （68 eyes） were selected, including 15 males and 19 females, aged between 20 and 40 years. Test lenses were placed before the tested eyes of volunteers to induce refractive myopia with insert method, and the diopter lenses were adjusted so that the visual acuity level of one eye of volunteers was above 0.8, and the visual acuity of the other eye was at moderate damage level （<0.3 and ≥0.1）. The tests were carried out under the binocular simultaneous asynchronous stimulation mode （hereinafter referred to as "binocular mode"） and monocular separate stimulation mode （hereinafter referred to as "monocular mode"） of virtual reality-pattern visual evoked potential （VR-PVEP）, and the amplitude of PVEP of volunteers under the two modes was compared at four spatial frequencies of 8×8, 16×16, 24×24 and 32×32. Results The differences in the amplitude of P100 wave between monocular and binocular modes at 8×8 spatial frequency had no statistical significance and the differences in amplitude of P100 wave between monocular and binocular modes at 16×16, 24×24, and 32×32 spatial frequencies had statistical significance （P<0.05）. The amplitude of the same eye in monocular mode was higher than that in binocular mode. Through correlation analysis, it was found that the amplitude of P100 wave in monocular mode was moderately correlated with amplitude of P100 wave in binocular mode. Conclusion In forensic identification practice, VR-PVEP is helpful for overcoming the disturbance of poor fixation, and to increase the reliability of PVEP evaluation results. It can greatly shorten the detection time of PVEP and improve work efficiency.

Optimized nerve block techniques while performing percutaneous hepatic ablation: Literature review and practical use.

Percutaneous image guided thermal ablation has become a cornerstone of therapy for patients with oligometastatic disease and primary liver malignancies. Evolving from percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI), thermal ablation utilizing radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and microwave ablation (MWA) have become the standard approach in the treatment of isolated lesions that fit within the size criteria for curative intent therapy (typically 3-4cm). With the evolution of more intense thermal ablation, such as MWA, the dramatic increase in both the size of ablation zone and intensity of heat generation have extended the limits of this technique. As a result of these innovations, intra-procedural and post-procedural pain have also significantly increased, requiring either higher levels of intravenous sedation or, in some institutions, general anesthesia. In addition to the increase in therapeutic intensity, the use of intravenous sedation during aggressive ablation procedures carries the risk of over-sedation when the noxious insult (i.e. the ablation) is removed, adding further difficulty to post-procedural recovery and management. Furthermore, high subdiaphragmatic lesions become challenging in this setting due to issues relating to sedation and compliance with breath hold/breathing instructions. Although general anesthesia may mitigate these complications, the added resources associated with providing general anesthesia during ablation is not cost effective and may result in substantial delays in treatment. The reduction of Aerosol Generating Medical Procedures (AGMP), such as intubation due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, must also be taken into consideration. Due to the potential increased risk of infection transmission, alternatives to general anesthesia should be considered when safe and possible. Upper abdominal regional nerve block techniques have been used to manage pain related to trauma, surgery, and cancer; however, blocks of this nature are not well described in the interventional radiology literature. The McGill University group has developed experience in using such blocks as splanchnic, celiac and hepatic hilar nerve blocks to provide peri-procedural pain control [1]. Since incorporating these techniques (along with hydrodissection with tumescent anesthesia), we have also observed in our high volume ablation center a dramatic decrease in the amount of sedatives administered during the procedure, a decrease in patient discomfort during localization and ablation, as well as decreased pain post-procedure. Faster time to discharge and overall reduction in room procedural time serve as added benefits. The purpose of this publication is to outline and illustrate the practical application and use of nerve block/regional anesthesia techniques with respect to percutaneous hepatic thermal ablation.

Hsa-miR-375 promotes the progression of inflammatory bowel disease by upregulating TLR4.

OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the biological function of hsa-miR-375 in the progression of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the potential mechanism. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Intestinal mucosa tissues of 26 IBD patients and 30 healthy volunteers who underwent colonoscopy were harvested for determining hsa-miR-375 level by quantitative Real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Binding of hsa-miR-375 to toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) was verified by the dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. Changes in the viability and apoptosis in Caco-2 cells influenced by hsa-miR-375 were examined by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The regulatory effect of hsa-miR-375 on the intestinal epithelial barrier was examined by detecting transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and lucifer yellow flux. Relative levels of TLR4, nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1), occludin and inflammatory factors in Caco-2 cells were detected by qRT-PCR, Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS: Hsa-miR-375 was downregulated in intestinal mucosa tissues of patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Knockdown of hsa-miR-375 decreased viability and TEER, but elevated apoptotic rate and lucifer yellow flux. Overexpression of hsa-miR-375 achieved the opposite trends. TLR4 was the direct downstream of hsa-miR-375, and its level was negatively mediated by hsa-miR-375. In addition, TLR4 level in Caco-2 cells was upregulated after LPS induction, while hsa-miR-375 level was unchangeable. Knockdown of hsa-miR-375 upregulated NF-κB and pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1ß, IL-6 and IL-8, and downregulated ZO-1, occludin and anti-inflammatory factor IL-10. CONCLUSIONS: Hsa-miR-375 is involved in the pathogenesis of IBD by upregulating TLR4 and inducing NF-κB activation.

Decreased expression of miR-551b predicts poor prognosis and promotes tumorigenesis by targeting PTP4A3 in human colorectal cancer.

OBJECTIVE: MiR-551b has been reported to display tumor-suppressive and oncogenic potential in several cancers, but there has been no study on the roles of miR-551b in colorectal cancer (CRC). In this work, we aimed to explore the potential functions and mechanisms of miR-551b in the modulation of the CRC progression. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The expressions of miR-551b were examined in 122 pairs of CRC cancer tissues and adjacent non-tumor samples by Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR). The clinical significance of miR-551b in CRC patients was explored using a Chi-square test, Kaplan-Meier assays, and multivariate analysis. MiR-551b mimics and inhibitors were used to establish miR-551b upregulation and downregulation models in CRC cells to examine the functions of miR-551b on cells proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis. Dual-luciferase reporter assays were conducted for the validation of the possible modulation of a putative target of miR-551b. RESULTS: We showed that miR-551b was significantly down-regulated in CRC tissues and cell lines. It was observed that miR-551b expressions were correlated with lymph nodes metastasis, TNM stage, and poor prognosis. Multivariate analysis identifies low level of miR-551b expressions as an independent predictor for a shorter overall survival. The functional assessment suggested that forced miR-551b expression distinctly suppressed CRC cells growth, invasion, and migration, while the suppression of miR-551b displayed the opposite trend. Mechanistic studies confirmed that PTP4A3 was identified as a direct target of miR-551b in CRC. Interesting observations revealed that the cells capacities were higher in miR-551b +PTP4A3 group, when compared with those in miR-551b group, indicating that up-regulation of PTP4A3 rescued the repressive functions of miR-551b overexpression on CRC cells growth and migration. CONCLUSIONS: The findings of our study first showed that miR-551b, a potential tumor suppressor, may be used as a promising prognostic predictor and therapeutic target for CRC.

Has_circ_0008274 promotes cell proliferation and invasion involving AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway in papillary thyroid carcinoma.

OBJECTIVE: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been known as important regulators in tumorigenesis. Whether circRNAs are involved in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) requires to be determined. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the expression and function of has_circ_0008274 in PTC. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Tissue expression of has_circ_0008274 was evaluated in Gene Expression Omnibus datasets (GSE93522). Real-time PCR assays were used to detect the expression of has_circ_0008274 in human PTC tissues and cell lines. The correlation of has_circ_0008274 expression with clinicopathological factors was statistically analyzed. The MTT assay, colony formation assay, transwell assays were performed to analyze and compare cell viability and invasion. Western blot analysis was used to quantify the expression of AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway proteins. RESULTS: We found that has_circ_0008274 was significantly upregulated in PTC tissues, and the level of has_circ_0008274 was negatively associated with TNM stage and lymph node metastasis. Loss-of-function assay indicated that knockdown of has_circ_0008274 suppressed PTC cells proliferation and invasion in vitro. Mechanistically, has_circ_0008274 could inhibit the activation of AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway, which was demonstrated by measuring the expression levels of p-AMPK and p-mTOR. CONCLUSIONS: These results demonstrate that increased has_circ_0008274 expression modulates has_circ_0008274 to enhance PTC cells proliferation and invasion. Has_circ_0008274/ AMPK/mTOR axis may be a novel therapeutic candidate target in PTC treatment.

Four-dimensional calibration turntable of the motional Stark effect diagnostic on EAST.

The motional Stark effect (MSE) diagnostic is applied to measure the safety factor q and current density profile of a tokamak device, which are important parameters in realizing the high-performance and long-pulse steady state of a tokamak. A single-channel MSE diagnostic based on dual photoelastic modulators, whose sightline meets with the neutral beam injection at a major radius of R = 2.12 m, has been built for the D window of the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST). According to the requirements of MSE diagnostic polarimetric calibration, a high-precision four-dimensional calibration turntable, driven by four stepping motors and controlled by software running on the computer, was designed for EAST. The turntable allows us to rapidly calibrate the MSE diagnostic in a series of positions and angles during EAST maintenance. The turntable can move in four dimensions of translation, yaw, pitch, and roll of the polarizer and can create linearly polarized light at any given angle with accuracy of ∼0.05° for the MSE system offline calibration. The experimental results of the MSE diagnostic calibration in the laboratory show that the turntable has the advantages of high positioning accuracy, flexible spatial movement, and convenient control and fully meets the calibration requirements of an MSE diagnosis system.

Chloroquine aggravates the arsenic trioxide (As2O3)-induced apoptosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia NB4 cells via inhibiting lysosomal degradation in vitro.

OBJECTIVE: Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a distinct subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), as standing out for its distinguished sensitivity to all-trans retinoic acid and arsenic trioxide (ATO, As2O3). The As2O3-mediated degradation of PML-RARA (promyelocytic leukemia-retinoic acid receptor-α) oncoprotein via the proteasome pathway appears to be critical for such distinguished sensitivity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The present study was to evaluate the influence by chloroquine (CQ), an inhibitor to the release of lysosomal enzymes, on the sensitivity of APL cells to As2O3. APL-derived NB4 cell line was treated with As2O3 or/and CQ in vitro. Then, the cell viability, the induction of apoptosis, and autophagy were examined with MTT assay, with TUNEL staining or with enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP)-light Chain 3 (LC3) reporter. The apoptosis- or autophagy-associated proteins were quantified with Western blotting assay. RESULTS: Our results demonstrated that the As2O3 treatment promoted either apoptosis or autophagy in APL NB4 cells and upregulated both apoptosis- and autophagy-associated proteins. However, additional CQ treatment deteriorated the As2O3-induced NB4 cell apoptosis, whereas aggravated the As2O3-induced accumulation of acidic vesicular organelles (AVOs) and blocked the lysosomal degradation in NB4 cells. CONCLUSIONS: Chloroquine aggravates the arsenic trioxide-induced apoptosis of APL NB4 cells via inhibiting lysosomal degradation in vitro. It implies that chloroquine might be adjuvant to sensitize APL cells to arsenic trioxide.

Analysis on Fourier characteristics of wavelength-scanned optical spectrum of low-finesse Fabry-Pérot acoustic sensor.

In this work, we investigate the Fourier characteristics of wavelength-scanned optical spectrum of low-finesse Fabry-Pérot (FP) acoustic sensor both theoretically and experimentally. The wavelength scanning will transform the time-domain acoustic signal into phase modulation loaded on the FP sensor spectrum distributed along wavelength. Therefore the interference spectrum can be regarded as carrier signal in the wavelength domain. From this perspective, it is intelligible that the phase modulation loaded on the spectrum (carrier signal) will introduce sidebands in Fourier domain. The spatial frequency and phase of sideband components contain unique information of both acoustic signal and the corresponding sensor. These conclusions are experimentally proved by single sensor head as well as two parallel sensors. The Fourier characteristics of sideband components can be utilized to recognize and distinguish acoustic signals received by different sensors, indicating that it has potential applications in multiplexed FP sensor array and source localization, and so forth.

[Prenatal supplementations of iron, iron-containing multimicronutrients and antianemic Chinese patent medicines in women in Shaanxi province, 2010-2013].

Objective: To understand the prevalence of prenatal supplementations of iron, iron-containing multi-micronutrients (IMMN) and antianemic Chinese patent medicines (ACPM) and associated factors in women in Shaanxi province. Methods: A sample of 28 367 childbearing-age women who gave birth during 2010-2013 and had specific information of the prenatal nutrients supplementation were recruited using stratified multistage cluster random sampling in Shaanxi province. The information about their basic characteristics and prenatal supplementation of nutrients were collected by a questionnaire survey. Descriptive analysis method was used to analyze the intake rate of iron, IMMN and ACPM during each period of pregnancy, and logistic regression model was used to identify associated factors. Results: The overall prevalence of prenatal iron, IMMN and ACPM supplementation was low (28.99%), and the intake rate of iron was the lowest (5.33%). The prevalence of prenatal supplementation of iron, IMMN and ACPM were lower before pregnancy and in the first trimester than in the second and third trimester. The intake rates for consecutive 2 periods were very low (all were lower than 2.00%). The intake rates of iron, IMMN and ACPM significantly increased year by year. Women living in central Shaanxi had relatively high intake rates of iron (7.22%) and IMMN (16.55%), and women in southern Shaanxi had relatively high intake rate of ACPM (18.50%). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that higher educational level (OR=1.920, 95%CI: 1.617-2.279), antenatal care times≥6 (OR=1.832, 95%CI: 1.604-2.091), etc. were the positive factors for iron intake, and these positive factors were similar to those for IMMN intake. Additionally, rural residence was the negative factor for IMMN intake (compared with urban residence, OR=0.872, 95%CI: 0.788-0.966). Conversely, higher educational level (OR=0.855, 95%CI: 0.746-0.979), higher household income (OR=0.864, 95%CI: 0.796-0.938) were negative factors for ACPM intake, and rural residence was its positive factor (OR=1.285, 95%CI: 1.141-1.447). Conclusions: The prevalence of prenatal supplementation of iron, IMMN and ACPM were low in women in Shaanxi, especially the intake rate of iron was the lowest. The prophylactic iron supplementation before pregnancy or in the first trimester was rare. Measures should be taken to improve the prenatal supplementation of iron in Shaanxi and to standardize the clinical use of ACPM.
