The technique of double labelling with fluorescent tracers(FB-NY,PI-Bb)has.been used in the following three groups of experiments:1.in 5 rats,one fluorescenttracer was injected into the tibial nerve and the other was injected into the peronealnerve;2.in 14 rats,one fluorescent tracer was injected into the sural cutaneousnerve and the other was injected into the branches to the soleus and gastrocnemiusmuscles;3.in 13 rats,one tracer was injected into the tibial nerve and the otherinto the bladder wall.The sections of the L_(3-6),S_(1-3) dorsal root ganglion were stu-died with a olympus fluorescence microscope using UG-1 excitation filter system.In the first and second groups,double labelled neurons were observed in L_(4-6) dorsalroot ganglion.But in the third group,the double labelled neurons were found onlyin the L_6 segment.The type of the double labelled neurons was mainly small-sized(33.1%)and small-medium sized(40.9%).The findings indicated that,the primary afferent fibers branched towards theperiphery and supplied,with different branches,either two somatic areas or skinand deep structures,or,especially,visceral and somatic sensory fields.This resultsuggests that the peripheral dichotomization of these dorsal root ganglion cells mightconverge sensory inputs from the somatic(tibial nerve)and the visceral(bladderwall)fields and thus provides one of the structural basis for the referred pain andthe neuronal mechanism of acupunctural therapy by which stimulation of somaticstructures could regulate the activities of visceral organs.

ROS-mediated oxidative stress involved in a variety of cellular signal transduction, FOXO3a transcription factor is an intersection in regulating a variety of cellular oxidative stress. FoxO3a has been extensively studied in regulating oxidative stress because of its rather complex and pivotal regulation of cell proliferation, cell cycle arrest, ROS scavenging and apoptosis. This review will elucidate the FOXO3a’s regulatory mechanisms and describe the target genes involved. It will also provide the clinical significance and strategies to target FOXO3a to regulate oxidative stress.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis of intracranial artery fenestration and its other vascular anomalies with CT angiography ( CTA ) . Methods The image data of 653 patients examined with head CTA and 39 patients diagnosed as intracranial artery fenestration in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Sun Yat-sen University from January 2013 to January 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The incidence, location,morphology of intracranial artery fenestration, and other vascular anomalies were analyzed. Results (1) In 653 patients,39 (5. 97%) with 41 artery fenestrations were detected. The detection rates of basilar artery fenestration was 3. 37% (n=22),vertebral artery fenestration was 0. 31% (n=2),anterior cerebral artery fenestration was 1. 22% (n =8),anterior communicating artery fenestration was 0. 61%(n=4),and middle cerebral artery fenestration was 0. 76% (n=5),respectively. The post-circulation fenestration was mainly convex lens type (66. 67%,n =17),the anterior-circulation fenestration was mainly fissure type (76. 47%,n=24),and there was significant difference (χ2=7. 411,P<0. 05). (2) In the 39 patients,22 complicated other vascular anomalies. Most of them were unilateral or bilateral fetal-type posterior cerebral arteries (n=10),and followed by aneurysms (n=5). The locations of 5 aneurysms were far from the fenestration,3 located in the communicating segment of internal carotid artery,1 in the top of basilar artery,and 1 in the M2 segment of bilateral middle cerebral arteries. Conclusion CTA can intuitively and clearly reveal the intracranial artery fenestration and other vascular anomalies. But there is no significant correlation between arterial fenestration and vascular anomalies.

Objective To investigate the career resilience and its influencing factors among nurse specialists.Methods Totally 288 nurse specialists were investigated by General Information Questionnaire,Career Resilience Scale,Core Self-Evaluations Scale and Simplified Coping Style Scale.Results The score was 37.12±4.78 for career resilience,35.46±4.78 for core self-evaluations,23.57±5.2 1 for positive coping,and 9.39±3.74 for negative coping,respectively.There were statistic difference (P＜0.01) among the total score and 2 dimensions score of career resilience on different level of self-assessment of health among specialist nurses.Specialist nurses,career resilience had a obvious positive correlation with the age,nursing age,core self-evaluations,and positive coping(P＜ 0.01).The results of multivariate linear regression analysis showed that age,self-assessment of health,positive coping and core self-evaluations entered the regression equation of career resilience.Positive coping was a partial intermediate variable of core self-evaluations and career resilience.Conclusion The level of career resilience is medium and it should be enhanced among nurse specialists.The age,self-assessment of health,positive coping and core self-evaluations are possible influencing factors of career resilience.And core self-evaluations can improve career resilience of specialist nurses via the effects of positive coping.

Objective To explore the mediating role of coping modes between illness perception and posttraumatic growth among patients with breast cancer. Methods Totally 300 patients with breast cancer were investigated with the posttraumatic growth inventory, brief illness perception questionnaire and medical coping modes questionnaire. Results The total score of illness perception was 40. 77 ± 6. 85. The scores of confrontation coping style,avoidance coping style and resignation coping style were 19.42±3.51, 17.78±2.79,8.64±3.35. The total score of posttraumatic growth was 57.38±10.48. Illness perception was negatively correlated with posttraumatic growth ( r=-0.743) ,confrontation( r=-0.568) and avoidance ( r=-0.621),positively related with resignation( r=0.727).Posttraumatic growth was positively correlated with confrontation and avoidance ( r=0.729, r=0.657) ,but negatively correlated with resignation( r=-0.757) (P<0.01) . Coping modes had a partial mediating effect on the relationship between illness perception and postt?raumatic growth. The total mediation effect value was 0.428,and the mediation effect was 57.60%,while con?frontation and resignation mediation effect value were -0. 191 and -0. 207, and the mediation effect were 25.70% and 27. 86%. But there was no statistical significance in avoidance mediation ( effect value was-0.030 and the mediation effect was 4.04%) . Conclusion Confrontation and resignation coping modes play a role multiple mediation effects between illness perception and posttraumatic growth.
