[Postpartum depression].

A retrospective study was carried out in Beijing, China, in 1992. Edinburgh postnatal depression scale was used to inquire the mothers at 6-12 month after delivery. A total of 550 women were investigated by mailing. 425 women replied. The positive rate of PPD in our study was 17.9%. Women who had had a history of mood disorder before pregnancy had a higher risk of PPD. Social and psychological factors such as lacking support from the women's relatives, the poor marital relationship and the bad living condition shown to be significantly associated with postnatal depression. PPD can seriously affected the physical and mental health and well-being of women, her child's early education causing delayed development and her family causing a great deal of suffering, personal distress and marital troubles even causing divorce and suicide. Thus it is important to identify the high risk women and give treatment as early as possible.

[Serum HSV-2 antibody in males from high and low incidence areas of cervical cancer].

Serum HSV-2 antibody in male from high and low incidence areas of cervical cancer was assayed by enzyme-immuno-slide method. The results show that the geometric mean titer of the serum HSV-2 antibody in the male from high incidence area (413.5) is significantly higher than that from the low incidence area (210.4) (P less than 0.01). It indicates that the high cancer incidence might be related to the high HSV-2 infection rate in the spouses of the cervical cancer patients.
