Objective To investigate the incidence and related risk factors of post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD) after acci-dents in the Pearl River Delta .Methods Inpatients after accidents from April 2009 to February 2010 in seven hospitals of the Pearl River Delta cities ,such as Guangzhou ,Shenzhen and Zhuhai ,were surveyed with PTSD Checklist-Civilian Version (PCL-C) and self-made questionnaire .Results In a total of 554 post traumatic patients ,a prevalence of 28 .5% of PTSD symptoms were found in this region with 7 .8% (marks≥50) of severe degree and 20 .8% (marks :38-49) of mild to moderate degree .In the severe PTSD symptoms group ,the top three items were getting nervous and upset once faced similar situation ,difficulty sleeping or easy to be a-wake ,and the trauma experience caused recurring disturbing memory ,ideas or image .Multivariate analysis showed that female ,una-ble self-care ,incapable of working ,lack help from friends ,multiple injury ,and injury time longer were all associated with the PTSD symptom incidence .Conclusion The prevalence of PTSD symptoms is relatively high in injured patients after accidents in the Pearl River Delta .Early identification and intervention of PTSD symptoms in post-traumatic patients are important for the prevention of PTSD .

AIM:To investigate the inhibitory ef-fect of Zushima ointment on inflammation and bone destruction in CIA mice.METHODS:SPF grade male DBA/1 mice were used,6 were random-ly selected as the normal group,and 18 CIA mice that were successfully modelled were randomly di-vided into the model group,the plaster group(1.0 g/kg),and the fuselage group(0.12 g per time)ac-cording to the random number table method,6 mice in each group,and each administered group was given medication according to the body mass,and saline was given to both the normal and model groups.The normal group and the model group were given saline,and breathable adhesive paper was applied once a day for 4 h/session for 4 consec-utive weeks.The arthritis scoring index was used to observe the changes of arthritis symptoms and ar-thritis index scores of mice in each group.Micro-CT was used to observe the damage of hind paw of mice,real-time fluorescence PCR was used to de-tect the mRNA expression of IL-17,IL-1β and TNF-αin ankle joint tissues,and immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of OPG and RANKL proteins in ankle joint tissues,and hematox-ylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the pathological changes of synovial tissues after the treatment.The pathological changes of synovial tis-sue were observed after hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining,and the changes of osteoclasts in ankle joint tissue were observed by anti-tartaric acid phosphatase(TRAP)method.RESULTS:Compared with the normal group,the arthritis index score of the model mice was significantly higher(P＜0.05).Micro-CT showed severe bone erosion in the hind paws of the mice,destruction of the bone surface and reduction of bone volume.The expression of IL-17,IL-1β and TNF-α mRNA(PCR)in the ankle joint tissues was significantly higher(P＜0.05).Im-munohistochemistry showed that the relative ex-pression of OPG protein in the ankle joint tissues was reduced(P＜0.05).Immunohistochemistry showed a decrease in the relative expression of OPG protein(P＜0.01)and an increase in the rela-tive expression of RANKL protein(P＜0.01).HE re-sults showed moderate inflammatory cell infiltra-tion,swelling of synovial cells,massive formation of vascular opacities and synovial hyperplasia;an increase in the number of osteoclasts,roughness of the surface of articular cartilage tissue,severe bone destruction and thinning of the cartilage lay-er.Compared with the model group,the arthritic symptoms of mice in the cream group and the futa-lin group were relieved and the arthritis index score was reduced;the bone density of the mice's hind paws improved,effectively relieving osteopo-rosis;the expression of IL-17,IL-1β and TNF-αmRNA(PCR)in the ankle joint tissue was signifi-cantly reduced(P＜0.05);the immunohistochemical results showed that the relative expression of OPG protein was increased(P＜0.05),the relative expres-sion of RANKL protein decreased(P＜0.01).HE re-sults showed that synovial cell enlargement was significantly improved,mild inflammatory cell infil-tration,synovial hyperplasia was not obvious;the number of broken bone was reduced,articular car-tilage destruction was significantly improved and relieved,and the thickness of cartilage layer was significantly increased.CONCLUSION:Ancestral hemp poultice relieves local symptoms of RA,re-duces the expression of inflammatory factors and attenuates the inflammatory response,possibly by inhibiting osteoclast differentiation and activation through modulation of the OPG/RANKL signalling axis,which further ameliorates the biological ef-fects of articular bone and cartilage destruction.

Objective To investigate the establishment of focal cerebral ischemia model in rabbits with the improved suture method.Methods A total of 45 healthy and clean adult New Zealand rabbits were divided into either a sham operation group (n =5) or a model group (n =40) using random number table method before modeling,and the sex was not limited.The self-made head ends of 2-0 fishing lines dipped in paraffin were used as the sutures.The external carotid artery was cut and inserted into a intracranial artery through the internal carotid artery and blocked the origin of middle cerebral artery.The neurological function score was performed after 6 h.The neurological deficit scores ≥2 was successful modeling.The rabbits were killed by anesthesia.The brain slices were stained with 2％ 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride solution.The infarct foci were observed.The diameters of suture head and the depth of suture insertion were compared in the model rabbits with successful modeling,failure,and death in the model group.Results There were 40 rabbits in the model group,six of them died,including 4 died of subarachnoid hemorrhage within 4 h after operation,and 2 died from anesthetic accident.The mortality rate was 15.0％.Seven rabbits failed,mainly because of cerebral vasospasm and the insertion depth of suture was insufficient.Twenty-seven had successful modeling,and the success rate was 67.5％.All the rabbits in the sham operation group survived.The diameter of the suture head and insertion depth in the successful modeling rabbits were compared with the death and failure outcome in rabbits.The difference was statistically significant (diameter:0.52 ± 0.14 mm vs.0.45 ±0.40 mm and 0.58 ±0.17 mm;depth:5.49 ±0.17 cm vs.6.04 ± 0.11 cm and 4.26 ±0.30 cm;all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The improved suture method can successfully prepare the focal cerebral ischemia model of middle cerebral artery in rabbits.The method is simple.Its repeatability and practicability are better.

Ankylosing spondylitis(AS)is a typical spinal arthritis characterised by inflammatory back pain,which seriously affects the health and quality of life of patients.The clinical efficacy of Chinese medicine in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis is clear,but the mechanism is not clear,and the existing animal models cannot be well applied to the evaluation of Chinese medicine in the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis.Therefore,this paper summarizes the existing animal models based on Chinese and Western medicine clinical diagnosis,disease characteristics,etiology and Chinese medicine evidence,and finds that among the existing animal models,the proteoglycan-induced arthritis mouse model has a higher Chinese and Western medicine clinical fit than the other models,but lacks the corresponding Chinese medicine evidence model evaluation.The other animal models had a higher Western clinical match,but lacked the characteristics of the Traditional Chinee Medicine(TCM)syndrome.As ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease with complex pathogenic factors,the existing animal models cannot better simulate the clinical symptoms.Therefore,the establishment of animal models of ankylosing spondylitis with the characteristics of Chinese and Western clinical evidence is a future research priority for AS TCM.

Objective To observe the effect of group biofeedback in patients with residual schiz-ophrenia(RS).Methods A total of 127 patients with RS were selected as study objects,and ran-domly divided into control group(n=63)and observation group(n=64).The control group re-ceived routine nursing,and the observation group received group biofeedback based on the control group.The Positive and Negative Symptom Scale(PANSS),Personal and Social Performance Scale(PSP)and Self-awareness Inventory(SAI)Questionnaire(treatment compliance)scores were com-pared between the two groups.Results After 12 weeks of intervention,the score of the positive symptoms,the score of negative symptoms and the total score of PANSS in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The number of patients with PSP scores greater than 70 to 100 and greater than 30 to 70 in the observation group was significantly more than those in the control group,and the number of patients with PSP score of 0 to 30 was significantly less than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The SAI score of the observation group after interven-tion was significantly higher than that before intervention and control group,and the number of com-pleted biofeedback therapy in the observation group was significantly more than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Group biofeedback can promote symptom relief and improve treat-ment compliance in patients with RS.

Rheumatoid arthritis(RA)is an autoimmune disease with the basic pathological manifestation of synovial inflammation.Symmetric poly-articular pain and swelling are the main symptoms in clinical practice,and even extra-articular manifestations and comorbidities such as interstitial fibrosis and coronary artery disease are triggered,which seriously affect the quality of life of patients.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has achieved good clinical efficacy in the prevention and treatment of RA with the advantages of multi-pathway,multi-target,multi-component,and less toxic side effects,and plays an important role in the treatment of RA.Recently,many studies have demonstrated that Chinese medicine monomers and Chinese herbal compound can control inflammation,reduce angiogenesis,induce apoptosis of synovial fibroblasts,and inhibit their proliferation,invasion and migration by regulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway,so as to play a key role in the treatment of RA.For this reason,the article summarizes current knowledge regarding the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and its role in RA,as well as summarizes the current research progress of TCM in the treatment of RA by regulating the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.The aim of this review is to provide theoretical bases for the prevention and treatment of RA and the development of new drugs.

Objective To screen the secretory factor-related, mechanoresponsive microRNAs (miRNA) of osteocytes. Methods Cyclic mechanical tensile strain (ε=2.5,f=0.5 Hz) was applied to osteocytes and osteoblasts cultured in vitro respectively, and the differentially expressed miRNAs only in the osteocytes were screened out by using miRNA chip. Through bioinformatics technology, in these differentially expressed miRNAs, the target genes of secretory factors including insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1), nitric oxide synthesase (NOS), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) and sclerostin (SOST) were further screened out. Then the selected miRNAs were compared with the biochip detected, differentially expressed miRNAs in femur bone of the mice which were trained on treadmill, and four of these miRNAs were randomly selected for quantitative PCR verification. Results For the 77 differentially expressed miRNAs only in the mechanically strained osteocytes in vitro, 22 miRNAs whose target genes were the 4 secreted factors (IGF-1, NOS, FGF23 and SOST), were screened out. Moreover, a total of 11 miRNAs in the 22 miRNAs were differentially expressed in femur bone of the treadmill trained mice with the same trend as those in osteocytes in vitro, and the randomly selected miR-361-3p, miR-3082-5p, miR-6348 and miR-706 were confirmed to be differentially expressed with the same trend in femur bone and osteocytes. Conclusions These mechanoresponsive miRNAs differentially expressed only in osteocytes, such as miR-361-3p, miR-3082-5p, miR-6348 and miR-706, probably influence osteoblastic differentiation or bone metabolism through regulating the secretory factors.
