Objective To observe the expression of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway in substantia nigra in rats with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods A total of 96 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham group, model group, PI3K inhibitor LY294002 group and mTOR inhibitor rapamycin group. Each group was divided into 4 days and 8 days subgroups after the model. PD model was established by injecting rotenone subcutaneously. The expres-sion of PI3K, p-Akt and p-mTOR in substantia nigra was detected with immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Results Compared with the sham group, the expression of PI3K, p-Akt and p-mTOR increased in the model group (P<0.05), and was more in 8 days subgroup than in 4 days subgroup (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the expression of p-Akt and p-mTOR reduced in the LY294002 group (P<0.05), while the expression of PI3K varied little (P>0.05);the expression of p-mTOR decreased in the rapamycin group (P<0.05), while the expression of PI3K and p-Akt varied little (P>0.05). Conclusion PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway is over activated in substantia nig-ra in rats with Parkinson's disease, which may play an important role in occurrence and development of the disease.

Objective To compare and explore the optimal pathway of enteral nutrition between nasointestinal tube and nasogastric tube in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). Methods One hunderd patients with sTBI, admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to December 2016, were divided into nasointestinal tube group and nasogastric tube group (n=50) according to different enteral nutrition pathways. The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-6 were tested with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Meanwhile, intestinal mucosal barrier function indexes D-lactate acid and intestinal fat acid binding protein (I-FABP) were evaluated by enzymology spectrophotometer method. On the admission, and one, 3, 7 and 14 d after treatment, gastrointestina complications, pneumonias and prognoses of the two groups were compared. Results As compared with those in the nasogastric tube group, the serum levels of inflammatory related factors (TNF-α and IL-6) in the nasointestinal tube group were significantly decreased 3 d after treatment (TNF-α: [112.77± 14.52] μg/L vs. [163.16±18.85] μg/L P=0.01; IL-6: [80.11±8.02] μg/L vs. [100.97±9.82], P=0.02). As compared with those in the nasogastric tube group, the intestinal mucosal barrier function indexes (D-lactate acid and I-FABP) in the nasointestinal tube group were significantly decreased 7 d after treatment (D-lactate: [47.51±4.87] μg/L vs. [62.20±6.01] μg/L, P=0.04; I-FABP: [29.12±3.74] μg/L vs. [40.08±5.51] μg/L, P=0.01). The nasointestinal tube group had significantly lower gastric retention incidence (18% vs. 28%, P=0.00) and aspiration incidence (14% vs. 26%, P=0.06). Meanwhile, the nasointestinal tube group had significantly lower incidence of pneumonia (24% vs. 34%, P=0.01), reduced pneumonia severity (clinical pulmonary infection scores [CPIS]: 14.27±1.22 vs. 17.30±1.50, P=0.03), better prognosis (GCS scores: (9.41±0.66 vs. 8.23±0.57, P=0.03; APACHE II scores: 14.27± 1.22 vs. 17.30±1.50, P=0.03) 14 d after treatment as compared with the nasogastric tube group. Enteral nutrition by nasointestinal tube could shorten the hospitalization days of patients (18.52±2.00 vs. 24.82± 2.31, P=0.02). Conclusion Enteral nutrition by nasointestinal tube can effectively reduce the incidences of gastrointestinal and pulmonary complications, and alleviate inflammatory response and intestinal mucosal barrier function damage in patients with sTBI, possibly improving prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the effect of transtracheal pressure (TTP) on the application of a speaking valve in critically ill patients after tracheostomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of 50 patients wearing a speaking valve after tracheostomy. Patients who had been wearing a speaking valve for 30min or more were the tolerance group, while those with less than 30min were the intolerance group. Transtracheal pressure was monitored during resting breathing, forced expiration and speaking. Linear regression models were evaluated to isolate the factors best predicting tolerance. The changes in respiratory muscle contraction before and after wearing a speaking valvs were evaluated using ultrasound. The patients′ satisfaction with wearing a speaking valve was also recorded.Results:TTP during speaking significantly predicted tolerance. The baseline values of diaphragmatic thickening fraction and physical functioning also positively predicted tolerance. Acute physiology and chronic health (APACHE II) score was a significant negative predictor. After wearing the speaking valve, the average contraction of the rectus abdominis, external oblique, internal oblique and transverse abdominis muscles increased significantly. Both groups expressed high satisfaction with the speaking valves.Conclusions:Transtracheal pressure during speaking can help predict the tolerance for wearing a speaking valve among critically ill patients after a tracheostomy. Baseline diaphragmatic thickening fraction, physical functioning and APACHE II score can predict the duration of speaking valve tolerance.
