Objective: To investigate the effects of insulin on the DNA synthesis and cell cycle distribution of human periodontal ligament cells (PDLs). Methods:PDLs were treated with insulin at the doses (U/L) of 0.01～1 000 for 72 h,DNA synthesis of the cells was measured by 3H-TdR incorporation and cell cycle distribution was studied by flow cytometer. Results : Insulin at 1 U/L to 1 000 U/L showed a significant concentration dependent stimulation of 3H thymidine uptake, and the effect of insulin at 100 ～ 1 000 U/L were not statistically different from that at 10 U/L. The percentage of PDL cells in G1 phase during exponential growth was decreased by insulin, while that in S phase and (G2+M) was increased in experimental group. Conclusion: Insulin increases DNA synthesis of PDL cells ,and stimulates the transformation of cells from G1 to S phase.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of bilirubin in the hippocampus of the newborn rats with hyperbilirubinemia. Methods Hyperbilirubinemia model was established. The expression levels of Fas protein and N methyl D aspartate (NMDA) receptor and the apoptosis rate of nerve cells in rat hippocampus were detected with immunochemistry, TUNEL method and cytometry. Results Histological changes of nerve cells were found in hippocampal area of rats with hyperbilirubinemia. Significantly increased expression levels of Fas protein and NMDA receptor and apoptosis rate of nerve cells were positively correlated with the bilirubin level in rat brain tissues. Conclusion The bilirubin neurotoxicity is mediated by the excessive activation of NMDA receptor and participation of Fas system, which induces the apoptosis of nerve cells.

Objective To explore the appropriate frequency of ventilator tube replacement by researching the influence of different ventilator circuit change frequency on ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP).Methods A prospective randomized sampling study was conducted.The patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation over or equal to 3 days admitted to emergency intensive care unit (EICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from December 2012 to December 2015 were enrolled.The patients were divided into 3,7 and 10 days group according to the frequency of ventilator tube replacement.Bacteriology of ventilator tube and the incidence of VAP were compared among the groups.Results Ninety-eight patients were enrolled,mainly with the artificial airway of endotracheal intubation or tracheotomy,with 56 male and 42 female,aging 8 to 86 years with mean of (51.97 ± 17.56) years.There were no statistical differences in gender,age,Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score,cough function and application of glucocorticoid,enteral nutrition,atomization and sedative therapy among three groups,indicating that the risk factors among three groups were consistent.The bacteria detection rates of extension tube,breathe out tube,breathe in tube,and hydrops collection cup were 36.7％,36.7％,33.3％,and 33.3％ respectively in 3 days group,and they were 73.0％,67.6％,62.2％,and 62.2％ in 7 days group respectively,and were all 90.3％ in 10 days group.It was showed that the bacteria detection rate in different pipe parts was almost the same with the same change frequency,and the rate was higher with the longer usage of ventilator tube (x2 values were 20.599,19.879,21.975,21.975,all P =0.000).The longer of the tube used time,the higher incidence of VAP.The incidence of VAP in 3,7,10 days groups were 26.7％,59.5％ and 77.4％,respectively,but there was statistically significant difference among all groups (x2 =30.486,P ＜ 0.001).Based on the value of 3 days group,the incidence of VAP in the 7 days group was 15.950 folds of 3 days group,and the incidence of VAP in the 10 days group was 18.333 folds of the 3 days group (both P ＜ 0.001).Conclusion This study suggests that the longer of pipeline using time,the more serious degree of bacterial contamination of pipeline,the higher incidence of VAP.

Objective To compare the dosimetric difference between RapidArc and fixed gantry angle dynamic IMRT (dIMRT) for central-type lung cancer radiotherapy. Methods Therapy for 10 patients previously treated with dIMRT was replanned with RapidArc. Dose prescription was 66 Gy/33 fraction. Comparative endpoints were planning target volume (PTV) dose, doses to surrounding structures,number of monitor units, and treatment delivery time. Results There was no significant dosimetric difference between RapidArc and dIMRT. Compared with dIMRT, RapidArc slightly elevated target volume dose, lung V5, V10. The average values of lung V20, V30 and heart V30 were larger in dIMRT than those in RapidArc. The number of monitor units was reduced by 32% and the treatment time by 66% in RapidArc.Conclusions Both RapidArc and dIMRT plans could meet the clinical therapy needs. RapidArc could achieve similar target coverage and sparing of organs at risk, with fewer monitor units and shorter delivery time than dIMRT.

Objective:To explore effective schemes for improving cognitive function in patients with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) by EEG neurofeedback (NF) technique.Methods:Ten SCD patients recruited in Department of Neurology, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from April 2019 to August 2019, were chosen in our study; all patients were subjected to neuro-regulation of mismatched negativity (MMN) for 5 times in 2 weeks by EEG NF technique. By using the midlines of frontal zone (Fz), central zone (Cz) and peak zone (Pz) as training electrodes, auditory tones (1000 Hz as standard stimulus, individual hearing discrimination threshold as deviation stimulus) were used to induce MMN characteristics of event-related potential (ERP) via Oddball paradigm. SCD patients received visual disc stimulation feedback with dynamic neural signal activity. ERP waveforms and standard MMN characteristics (amplitude and latency) before and after training were used to evaluate the changes in neural activity of these patients; nine N-Back working memory tasks (three types×three gradients) and hearing discrimination ability tests were used in these patients to evaluate the improvement of cognitive competence.Results:ERP analysis showed that the MMN waveforms in SCD patients after training were obviously different as compared with those before training; their standard stimulus and deviant stimulus in the point-by-point paired t-test analysis were significant different ( P<0.05). The MMN amplitudes at the Fz, Cz and Pz electrodes in these patients after training were significantly higher than those before training ( P<0.05). The accuracy of auditory tone 3-Back task in SCD patients was statistically significant before and after training ( P<0.05). Conclusion:NF based on MMN can significantly improve the MMN amplitude and accuracy of auditory working memory task in patients with SCD, which might provide a potentially effective cognitive intervention method for patients with early AD and the elderly with normal memory decline.

Neurofeedback may improve cognitive function and behaviour by regulating the cerebral neural activities. Neurofeedback works as a kind of therapy for patients with Parkinson's disease, primarily based on electroencephalogram signals and hemodynamic signals. It regulates abnormal neuronal rhythm oscillations in the cortical-spinal system by electroencephalogram neurofeedback and sensory motor rhythm as the main adjustment frequency band, and modulates activation in the cortical-basal ganglia-thalamic-cortical network of brain with the supplementary motor area as the target area via functional magnetic resonance imaging neurofeedback. Neurofeedback effectively improves the motor symptoms of Parkinson's patients, both dynamic and static. However, the number of samples is limited in these researches, and the assessments before and after neurofeedback training are not yet comprehensive. Neurofeedback technology might be a potential effective rehabilitation for patients with Parkinson's disease.
