Objective:To investigate the effects of sodium aescinate on endothelin ( ET ) and calcitonin gene -related peptide ( CGRP) contents in the gerbils with cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury ( CI/R) . Methods:The gerbil model of CI/R was prepared by bilateral common carotid arteries ligation for 10 min followed by 2-hour reperfusion. Sodium aescinate (i. p. , 10, 20 and 40 mg· kg-1 ) was administered once a day for 3 days before the operation and once every 1 h after the operation, respectively. The levels of ET and CGRP in brain tissue homogenate were determined by a radioimmunoassay method. Results:Sodium aescinate significantly in-hibited the level of ET (28. 69-37. 03 ng·L-1) in the brain tissue of gerbils with CI/R compared with the model group (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01), while showed no evident influence on CGRP (P>0. 05). Conclusion:Sodium aescinate has obvious protective effects a-gainst CI/R in gerbils, which may be due to its inhibitory action on ET levels in brain tissue.

OBJECTIVE To understand the mechanisms,adverse effect and notices in use of quinalones.METHODS The adverse effect of quinalones used sinylely or in combination was collected and analyzed.RESULTS Serious central nerve system side-effects,phototoxicity,hepatotoxicity hemolytic anemia,uremia and so on could be found in few cases.Some quinolones could result in Q-T interval elongation inducing the severe ventricular dysrythmia.The serum glucose also could be affected when quinolones were used together with the medications for diabetes.CONCLUSIONS The key points for quinolones usage are rational use and paying attention to their safety.

Objective To investigate the acute toxicity and anti-stress effects of Naoxinshu capsule (NC) in mice.Methods In acute toxicity experiment,mice were oral administered to determine the maximum tolerance dose of NC.In anti-stress experiments,mice were divided into 5 groups at random,namely NC high,medium and low dose groups (2.4,1.2 and 0.6 g/kg,respectively),Gypenosides group(0.75 g/kg) and control group (n=10).After seven days of oral administration,rope climbing time,loaded swimming time,anti-hypoxia time,and survival rate under high or low temperature tests were carried out,respectively.Results The maximum tolerance dose of NC was 72 g/kg.NC high,medium and low dose groups significantly prolonged the rope climbing time [is (9.5 ± 3.1) min,(6.0± 1.6) min,(4.1 ± 1.2) min],loaded swimming time [is (28.2± 6.8) min,(25.7± 10.3)min,(22.9± 8.0)min] and anti-hypoxia time (around 17 min),compared to the control group (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).NC high dose group significantly improved the survival rate of mice (i.e.30％) under high or low temperature (P＜0.05).Conclusion NC shows good anti-stress effects,and no detectable acute toxicity in mice.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution of pathogenic bacteria in blood culture and their drug-sensitivity in our hospital in the past year.METHODS The blood samples were cultivated in the BacT/Alert 3D system and the isolated colonies were identified by the VITEK32 system or traditional routine procedures.The K-B method was carried out for the drug-sensitivity festing.RESULTS From the 716 blood samples received,we identified 109 strains of pathogens in which Gram-positive cocci accounted for 50.46%,Gram-negative bacilli for 44.04% and fungi for 5.5%.CONCLUSIONS There are many kinds of pathogens identified from blood culture and they have high resistance to many antibiotices.It is very important for doctors to get the results of blood culture in time in order to give the patients correct antibiotic therapy and to improve the cure rate and to control cross-infection in hospials.

Objective:To analyze the detection rate and related factors of depressive and anxious symptoms comorbidity in 2021 and 2022.Methods:Based on the results of the Seventh National Population Census in 2021,the residents of 32 provinces,municipalities,and autonomous regions were sampled by gender and age.The gender and age of the samples were in line with the characteristics of China's population.A face-to-face interview survey was conducted in community residents in each province in 2021(n=11 005)and 2022(n=30 421)with the Gen-eralized Anxiety Questionnaire-7 and Patient Health Questionnaire-9.Results:The detection rates of depressive and anxious symptoms comorbidity were 10.67％in 2021 and 11.72％in 2022.The prevalence of depressive and anxi-ety comorbidity were higher in male,younger(age≤17 years),divorced,lower BMI(BMI＜18.5 kg/m2),higher education(graduate),students,and residents with chronic medical history(Ps＜0.001).In 2022,32.06％of people with depressive symptoms had anxious symptoms and 47.62％of people with anxious symptoms had depressive symptoms.Conclusion:In 2021 and 2022,the detection rates of depressive and anxious symptoms comorbidity were both about 10％,and half of patients with anxious symptoms were accompanied by depressive symptoms,So atten-tion should be paid to the comorbidity of depression and anxiety symptoms.

Objective:To explore stigma and related factors among family members of patients with mental disorders in psychiatric hospitals.Methods:Totally 1 365 family members of inpatients with mental disorders were-surveyed,and were assessed with the Perceived Devaluation-Discrimination Scale and a self-made demographic characteristics questionnaire.Results:The screening rate of stigma among the patient's family members was 61.5％.Males(OR=2.26,95％CI:1.06-5.01),age group of 18-29 years(OR=1.91,95％CI:1.15-3.20),monthly income ≥500 yuan(P＜0.05),disease duration of 0.5-＜lyear(OR=3.14,95％CI:1.66-6.03),care for patients within＜lyear(P＜0.05),teachers(OR=2.32,95％CI:1.24-3.44),self-employed person(OR=1.63,95％CI:1.02-2.24),civil servants(OR=1.77,95％CI:1.09-2.45),schizophrenia(OR=1.87,95％CI:1.32-2.42),affective disorders(OR=1.52,95％CI:1.03-2.016)were the main riskfactors of stigma.Conclusions:Family members of patients with mental disorders generally have a severe stigma,especially of patients with schizophrenia and affective disorders.

Objective:To explore the influence of chronic rhinitis on depressive symptoms of college freshmen and the mediating effect of avoidant personality.Methods:A cluster sampling method was used to survey 8 079 college freshmen from April 2018 to October 2018 using the Beck depression inventory and the avoidant personality diagnosis questionnaire based on DSM-Ⅳ.SPSS 25.0 software was used for descriptive statistics and Spearman correlation analysis, and the macro program PROCESS version 3.3 was used for the mediating effect.Results:(1) The detection rates of chronic rhinitis, avoidant personality and depressive symptoms were 22.90% (1 850/8 079), 19.22% (1 553/8 079) and 6.28% (507/8 079). The scores for avoidant personality disorder and depressive symptoms were 1.00 (0, 3.00) and 1.00 (0, 4.00), respectively. (2) The chronic rhinitis, avoidant personality and depressive symptoms were positively correlated ( rchronic rhinitis-avoidant personality=0.094, rchronic rhinitis-depressive symptoms=0.095, ravoidant personality-depressive symptoms=0.416, all P<0.001). (3) Chronic rhinitis could positively predict depressive symptoms ( β=1.113, P<0.001). (4) Avoidant personality played a mediating role between chronic rhinitis and depressive symptoms ( β=1.094, P<0.001), and accounted for 44.92%(0.500/1.113) of the total effect. Conclusion:Chronic rhinitis directly affect the depressive symptoms of college freshmen, and indirectly affect the depressive symptoms of college freshmen through the mediating role of avoidant personality.

Objective:To investigate the associated factors of depressive symptoms among patients with neo-plasms.Methods:Nationwide(excluding Hong Kong,Macao,and Taiwan),30 505 residents were selected by a combination of stratified sampling and quota sampling according to the proportion of the seventh national population census.Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9),General Anxiety Disorder-7(GAD-7),self-made questionnaire,and simplified perceived social support scale used to evaluate depressive symptoms,anxiety symptoms,behaviors,and perceived social support among patients with neoplasms.Results:Totally 359(1.2％)patients with self-repor-ted clinically diagnosed neoplasms were included,of which 151(42.1％)patients with malignant neoplasms and 208(57.9％)patients with benign neoplasms.The detection rate of depressive symptoms in patients with neo-plasms was 76.6％.Less than three days of walking for more than 10 minutes per day in the past week(OR=6.63),4-6 days of walking for more than 10 minutes per day in the past week(OR=5.00),the low(OR=4.80)or medium(OR=3.06)overall sleep quality,the lower perceived friend support(OR=4.66),and anxiety symp-toms(OR=1.74)among patients with neoplasms were risk factors for depressive symptoms.Conclusion:Patients with neoplasms generally might be at a high risk of depressive symptoms,especially for those patients with less ex-ercise,poor sleep quality,and low perceived social support.

To investigate the renal venous and spermatic venous sampling in assisting the diagnosis of reninoma. The case of reninoma was retrospectively reviewed together with the literature review of reninoma diagnosed with renal venous and spermatic venous sampling. A young patient with hypertension and headache was admitted to our hospital. Laboratory test showed high plasma renin concentration (>500 mIU/L), and enhanced computed tomography(CT) in the upper abdomen showed a mass in left inferior renal pole. The concentration of renin in the left spermatic vein was significantly higher than that in renal veins and branches, and peripheral vein, which was considered the left reninoma possibility. The left renal mass was resected surgically and pathologic exam revealed reninoma. The renin level and the blood pressure recoveried normal after operation.The literature reported that the positive rate of renal vein segmental blood collection for locating renin tumor was only 8.3%-64%. The possible reason was that reninoma usually located in the renal cortex, and the tumor blood might be collected by renal capsule vein instead of renal vein. In fact, the renal capsule vein intersects with the lateral division of the spermatic vein, but there have been no reports about the localization of reninoma by spermatic vein sampling. Since renin secreted by reninoma may go into the spermatic vein through renal capsule vein, it should be noted that spermatic venous blood should be collected simultaneously in renal vein sampling when locating reninoma.
