The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of phospholipids supplementation on nutritional status and antioxidant status of trained mice. The results indicate that: 1)In phospholipids supplementation groups concentrations of Hb and serum phospholipid increase significantly, serum Alb concentration tends to increase.Phospholipids supplementation can also help the recovery of Hb which is decreased after exhaustive exercise.2)Phospholipids supplementation can improve antioxidative status in some tissue .3)The activity of SOD is highest in quadriceps while the activity of GPX is highest in liver, and concentration of MDA is lowest in kidney.Different kinds of tissue show different levels of SOD, GPX and MDA, indicating their different abilities of antioxidation.4) Phospholipids supplementation have no effect on body weights of trained mice.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of amiodarone combined with botulinum toxin A in the treatment of hemifacial spasm.Methods Sixty-five patients with hemifacial spasm were randomly divided into amiodarone(n=33)and control(n=32)group.In the amiodarone group,oral amiodarone and local intramuscular injection of botulinum toxin A were administered.In the control group,only local intramuscular injections of botulinum toxin A was performed.The clinical efficacy was evaluated according to the Cohen rating on the 1st,4th,16th,32nd week.Results The Cohen rating in amiodarone group was significantly better than control group on 4th,16th,32nd week(P<0.05).The complete remission in amiodarone group was significantly higher than control group on 4th,16th,32nd week(75.8% vs.43.8%,81.8% vs.12.5%,81.8% vs.6.2%,all P <0.05).The total effective rate in amiodarone group was significantly higher than control group on 16th,32nd week(97.0%vs.75.0%,93.9% vs.65.6%,all P<0.05). There was one case of recurrence in control group on 4th week,while there was no recurrence in amiodarone group.The recurrence in control group on 16th,32nd week was higher than amiodarone group(56.3 % vs.0.0 %,65.6% vs.12.1%,all P<0.05).There was no signigicant difference in adverse reactions between amiodarone group and control group(24.2%vs.18.8%).Conclusion Combination of amiodarone and botulinum toxin A is more effective than botulinum toxin A alone in the treatment of hemifacial spasm.

Objective To investigate the value of shear wave elastography (SWE)on characterizing components and identifying the vulnerability of atherosclerotic plaques in vivo on a rabbit model.Methods The accuracy,as well as the inter-and intra-observer variance of quantifying the Young's modulus by SWE technique was first evaluated with the CIRS? phantoms as the golden standard.Animal model was developed by abdominal aorta endothelium denudation and high-cholesterol diet for 24 weeks on 20 purebred New Zealand rabbits.SWE images of atherosclerotic plaques found in the abdominal aortas were acquired in situ to acquire the Young's modulus.Then the plaques were harvested and matched with the distance between the right renal artery and the plaques recorded during SWE imaging.Histological slices were stained for fat,collagen,smooth muscle cells (SMC)and macrophages by Oil O red,picric Sirius red and anti-α-SMC,anti-RAM-1 1 immunohistology.Vulnerability index was also calculated as the percentage of (macrophage+fat)/(smooth muscle cell+collagen ).The correlation between the Young's modulus and plaque components and vulnerability index was analyzed.The value of SWE on differentiating plaque types was evaluated by ROC analysis.Results High agreement was found between the estimated Young's modulus by SWE and the gold standard.The coefficient of variant of inter-and intra-observer was very low at the range of 1.0%-3.8%.Ten fatty and twenty fibro-fatty plaques were obtained,totally.The maximal and mean Young's moduli of the fatty plaque were (49.90±22.95)kPa and (40.15±22.60)kPa,which were lower than those of the fibro-fatty plaques [(88.49±37.27)kPa and (72.93±29.21)kPa,respectively].The maximal Young's modulus obtained by SWE correlated positively with collagen and SMC (r =0.567 and 0.561,respectively with P <0.001),and negatively with fat and macrophage infiltration (r =-0.542 and-00.482,respectively with P <0.005).The mean Young's modulus also correlated positively with collagen and SMC (r=0.532 and 0.550,respectively with P <0.05),and negatively with fat and macrophage (r=-0.527 and -0.421,respectively with P <0.05).The same inclination could be observed between the minimal Young's modulus and the above components without statistical significance.Both the maximal and the mean Young's modulus correlated negatively with the vulnerable index (r =-0.620 and -0.619, respectively with P <0.001 ).ROC analysis revealed high sensitivity (85%)and specificity (80%)for differentiating fatty plaques from fibro-fatty plaques by Young's modulus.Conclusions SWE can be used for estimation of the Young's modulus of atherosclerotic plaques with high accuracy and reproducibility. Good correlation is evidenced between the Young's modulus and plaque components and vulnerability.Fatty and fibro-fatty plaques can be differentiated by Young's modulus with high sensitivity and specificity.Thus, SWE technique is promising for identifying vulnerable plaques.

Insulin resistant rats induced by fructose were treated with rosiglitazone (RSG), and the effect of RSG on the endocrine function of vascular endothelial cells were investigated. The results showed that RSG can improve the endocrine function of endothelia by enhancing aortic NO synthase activity and the ability of anti-oxidative stress.

Objective: To compare the differences in heart rate variability (HRV) indicators between depressive college students with and without suicidal ideation, so as to provide a reliable objective physiological basis for suicide screening and prevention among college students. Methods: From March to April 2023, a total of 60 college students with depression aged 17-25 years old were recruited from three universities in Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province through online and campus recruitment. They were divided into the depression with suicidal ideation group (30 cases) and the depression without suicidal ideation group (30 cases) based on the presence of suicidal ideation. A screening survey was conducted on college students using a self designed general information questionnaire, Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD), and Scale for Suicide Ideation (SSI). In May 2023, 5 minute resting HRV data was collected from the two groups of participants, and statistical analysis was conducted using t-tests or MannWhitney U tests. Results: The SSI and HAMD scores of college students in the depression group with suicidal ideation [7.00(4.25, 16.00), 40.73±12.88] were higher than those in the depression group without suicidal ideation [4.50(1.75, 6.00), 29.17±8.15 ] ( Z/t= -6.64 , 4.16, P <0.01). The standard deviation of the NN (SDNN), standard deviation of the average NN intervals (SDANN) and standard deviation of the NN interval every 5 minutes (SDNN Index) in the HRV time domain indicators of college students with depression and suicidal ideation [42.75(35.03, 60.75)ms, 32.75(26.65, 46.88)ms, (298.82±61.61)ms] were lower than those in the depression without suicidal ideation group [50.80(46.15, 59.68)ms, 38.80(34.50, 45.80)ms, (329.20±50.80)ms] ( Z/t= -2.43 , -2.20, -2.08, P <0.05). The very low frequency (VLF) in frequency domain indicators of college students with depression and suicidal ideation [0.02(0.02,0.02)Hz] was higher than that in the depression group without suicidal ideation [0.02(0.01, 0.02 )Hz] ( Z=-2.19, P <0.05). Conclusions College students with suicidal ideation have higher levels of depression and imbalanced autonomic nervous system function, and HRV may become an objective physiological indicator for identifying suicidal ideation.

Objective To test the effectiveness of an integrated intervention to improve control and management of type 2 diabetic patients.Methods The study was designed as a randomized and multi-center clinic trial for 24 weeks.150 overweight patients from 2 companies and one hospital in Shanghai were recruited.The principal objective of the project was to compare the effectiveness of a structured diabetes management program consisting of 200 kcal breakfast as a meal replacement with low glycemic index (GI),scheduled blood glucose monitoring(6 times per week),low GI diet consulting,monitoring and medical check up and nutritional education (diet consulting,health education on nutrition and healthy lifestyle) in overweight individuals with type 2 diabetes.Results At 12th week,the level of fasting blood glucose(FBG) in both groups decreased by 16.5% and 10.6%,and at 24th week,the FBG also decreased by 25.0% in intervention group,but in control group FGB increased 2.8% (P＜0.01).Meanwhile,there were 8.2% and 11.1% reductions in HbA1C respectively at 12th week and at 24th week in intervention group,while the values were increased slightly in control group(P＜0.01).Compared with control group,waist circumference,hip circumference,and blood pressure were significantly reduced after treatment for 24 weeks in intervention group (P＜0.01).Conclusions Integrated intervention is an effective approach in managing FBG,HbA1C blood pressure,and weight control in overweight diabetic patients.
