05) under restraint stress. Meanwhile, Caspase3, p-NF-κB p65 and p-ERK1/2 were obviously increased (p  less then  0.05) in the work. In vitro studies showed that the p-ERK1/2 and Caspase-3 levels were raised (p  less then  0.05) after β2-AR was activated. However, they were decreased when PKA was blocked. The protein levels of Caspase-3 were reduced when ERK and NF-κB were blocked (p  less then  0.05). In conclusion, the β2-AR/cAMP/PKA pathway promoted apoptosis and affected the development of the uterus through the ERK and NF-κB signaling pathway. The findings of this study may provide evidence for female reproduction under psychological stress.
To assess risk factors and incidence of diabetes complications in women with type 1 diabetes (T1D) based on parity.

Data were collected from women (16-40 years old) in the T1D Exchange completing pregnancy/childbirth questionnaires during 2011-2013 and 2016-2018. 1400W in vitro Incidence of risk factors and diabetes complications were compared between women with a first pregnancy at/within 1-year of enrollment (
 = 28) and never pregnant women by year 5 (
 = 469).

There was a trend for lower HbA1c (adjusted
 = .14) and higher rates of overweight/obesity, triglyceride/HDL > 2, log (triglyercide/HDL), and hypertension among parous women compared with nulliparous women. There were no significant differences in rates of advanced nephropathy, albuminuria or cardiovascular disease.

Four-5 years after delivery, parous women with T1D tended to have lower HbA1c levels despite higher body mass indices and more frequent adverse lipid profiles and hypertension compared with nulliparous women. Further studies based on these trends are warranted.

To evaluate the 24-segment sphericity index (SI) of the fetal heart using
HQ regarding the change with advancing gestation and reproducibility.

Eighty-one pregnant women at 18-21 + 6 and 28-31 + 6 weeks were studied using
HQ to calculate 24-segment SI of left and right ventricles. Intra- and inter-class correlation coefficients and intra- and inter-observer agreements of measurements for SI were assessed in each segment.

With respect to intra-observer reproducibility, all SI values showed correlations between 0.596 and 0.774 for the left ventricle, and between 0.491 and 0.764 for the right ventricle, with good intra-observer agreements except for right ventricular segment 11-15. With respect to inter-observer reproducibility, all SI values showed correlations between 0.473 and 0.755 for the left ventricle, and between 0.48 and 0.767 for the right ventricular segment 1-18. However, right ventricular segment 19-24 showed no correlations. Good inter-observer agreements were noted in the right ventricle, whereas poor inter-observer agreements were evident in the left ventricle. There were significant differences in the mean SI values in the apical segment of the left ventricle between 18-21 + 6 and 28-31 + 6 weeks (
 < .05), whereas there were no significant differences in the mean SI values in the right ventricle between both gestational ages.

These results show that measurements of 24-segment SI of fetal heart had relatively low reliability of measurements performed by experienced sonographers. This may suggest that more training on proper placement of the 3 end-systolic and end-diastolic reference points during the initial analysis may be relevant.

To identify whether the first plasma C-reactive protein values taken 6-8 h postpartum are predictive of the clinical early-onset neonatal sepsis (cEONS).

We retrospectively analyzed C-reactive protein (CRP) values of 400 neonates, including 28 with cEONS, who underwent plasma CRP measurements as part of sepsis work-up. To determine whether the first CRP measurement is predictive of cEONS, logistic regression was used with CRP as an independent variable and cEONS (yes/no) as a dependent variable.

A moderate predictive ability of the first CRP measurement (odds ratio 1.4, CI [1.13, 1.76],
=.003) was revealed, at a 5.3 mg/L threshold. However, it resulted in poor sensitivity of 50%, and a false positive rate of 30%. Increasing the sensitivity to 75% or 90% lead to increased false-positive rates of 55% and 75%, respectively.

Our findings suggest that the first CRP value taken in neonates is a weak predictor of cEONS.

Fruit of
(Forsk.) Vierh. (Acanthaceae) is used as a Chinese herb. Studies have found that it contains marinoid J, a novel phenylethanoid glycoside (PG) compound, but its neuroprotective functions are largely unknown.

This study evaluated the effects of marinoid J on vascular dementia (VD) and determined its potential mechanisms of action.

The VD model was established by the ligation of the bilateral common carotid artery in Sprague-Dawley rats, who received daily intragastrically administration of saline, marinoid J (125 or 500 mg/kg body weight/d), or oxiracetam (250 mg/kg body weight/d) for 14 days (20 rats in each group). The Morris water maze (MWM) was used to evaluate cognitive performance. The hippocampus was subjected to histological and proteomic analyses.

Marinoid J shortened the escape latency of VD rats (31.07 ± 3.74 s,
 < 0.05). It also decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) (27.53%) and nitric oxide (NO) (20.41%) while increasing superoxide dismutase (SOD) (11.26%) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) (20.38%) content in hippocampus tissues. Proteomic analysis revealed 45 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in marinoid J-treated VD rats, which included angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), keratin 18 (KRT18), cluster of differentiation 34 (CD34), and synaptotagmin II (SYT2).

Marinoid J played a role in protecting hippocampal neurons by regulating a set of proteins that influence oxidative stress and apoptosis, this effect may thereby alleviate the symptoms of VD rats. Thus, pharmacological manipulation of marinoid J may offer a novel opportunity for VD treatment.
