This study was aimed to observe the effect ofZi-Bu Pi-Yin Recipe (ZBPYR) on the mRNA expressions of NMDA receptor subunits NR1, NR2A, NR2B in different brain regions of spleen-yin deficiency Alzheimer's Disease (AD) model rats. The levels of NR1, NR2A, NR2B mRNA expressions were detected by using RT-PCR method. The results showed that the levels of NR1, NR2A, NR2B mRNA expressions of AD group and spleen-yin deficiency AD group decreased significantly (P < 0.05). The levels of NR1, NR2A, NR2B mRNA expressions of ZBPYR treatment group increased significantly (P < 0.05). It was concluded that the expression levels of NMDAR mRNA in different brain regions of the ZBPYR treatment group increased significantly, which indicated that ZBPYR may up-regulate the protein expressions of NMDAR by increasing the expression levels of NMDAR mRNA, thereby to play the anti-dementia effect.

Objective:To explore the correlation between hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and deep infection after spinal internal fixation surgery and analysis of pathogenic bacteria.Methods:One hundred and eighty-four patients who underwent spinal internal fixation with HBV infection in Xiaogan First People′s Hospital of Hubei Province from January 2013 to January 2019 were selected as the HBV infection group, and 184 patients who underwent spinal internal fixation with non-HBV infection were selected as the non-HBV infection group. The incidence of deep infection and the distribution of pathogenic bacteria were compared between 2 groups. The influencing factors of postoperative deep infection and HBV reactivation in patients with HBV infection were analyzed by single factor analysis and multi-factor Logistics regression analysis.Results:The incidence of deep infection after spinal internal fixation surgery in HBV infection group was significantly higher than that in non-HBV infection group: 19.57% (36/184) vs. 9.24% (17/184), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01). The pathogenic bacteria of deep infection in both groups were mainly acinetobacter bausinensis, klebsiella pneumoniae, staphylococcus aureus, staphylococcus epidermidis. There was no statistically significant difference in the distribution of pathogenic bacteria between 2 groups ( P>0.05). The deep infection incidences in age ≥ 65 years, operation time ≥ 3 h, intraoperative blood loss ≥ 1000 ml, CD 4+/CD 8+<1.4, total lymphocyte count<0.7 × 10 9/L, liver function abnormalities (AST>40 U/L or ALT>50 U/L), HBV-DNA (+) patients with HBV infection were significantly higher: 27.16%(22/81) vs. 13.59%(14/103), 28.77%(21/73) vs. 13.51%(15/111), 31.15%(19/61) vs. 13.82%(17/123), 29.69%(19/64) vs. 14.17%(17/120), 27.78% (20/72) vs. 14.29%(16/112), 7/18 vs. 17.47%(29/166), 30.43%(21/69) vs. 13.04%(15/115), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that intraoperative blood loss (≥ 1 000 ml), CD 4+/CD 8+(<1.4), total lymphocyte count (<0.7 × 10 9/L), and HBV-DNA (+) were independent risk factors for deep infection after spinal internal fixation in patients with HBV infection ( P<0.01 or <0.05). The HBV reactivation incidence in age ≥ 65 years, operation time ≥ 3 h, intraoperative blood loss ≥ 1 000 ml, liver function abnormalities, HBV-DNA (+), postoperative deep infection patients with HBV infection were significantly increased: 33.33% (27/81) vs. 18.45% (19/103), 34.25% (25/73) vs. 18.92% (21/111), 34.43% (21/61) vs. 20.33% (25/123), 8/18 vs. 22.89% (38/166), 34.78% (24/69) vs. 19.13% (22/115), 41.67% (15/36) vs. 20.95% (31/148), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that intraoperative blood loss (≥ 1 000 ml), HBV-DNA (+) and postoperative deep infection were independent risk factors for HBV reactivation after spinal internal fixation in patients with HBV infection ( P<0.05 or <0.01). Conclusions:HBV infection significantly increases the incidence of deep infection after spinal internal fixation surgery, and the independent risk factors are intraoperative blood loss (≥1 000 ml), CD 4+/CD 8+ (<1.4), total lymphocyte count (<0.7 × 10 9/L), and HBV-DNA (+). Spinal internal fixation surgery can cause HBV reactivation, and its independent risk factors are intraoperative blood loss (≥ 1 000 ml), HBV-DNA (+) and postoperative deep infection.

This study was aimed to observe the changes of dendritic spine density in different regions of brain among spleen-yindeficiency dementia (SYDD) model rats, in order to investigate the effects ofZi-Bu Pi-Yin Recipe (ZBPYR) on dendritic spines. Spleen-yindeficiency (SYD) rats were modeled by classical method. And incubatedβ-Amyloid 1-40 (Aβ1-40) was injected into the hippocampus of each rat to make SYDD model, which received the administration of ZBPYR. Golgi staining was used to stain dendritic spine in different regions of brain in rat model for the observation of the amount and shape. The results showed that dendritic spine density in different regions of hippocampus and cortex in SYDD group was reduced than that of the SYD group. Compared with the dementia group and the SYDD group, the dendritic spine density in different regions of hippocampus and cortex of the SYDD + ZBPYR group was increased. Compared with the blank control group, the dendritic spine density in different regions of hippocampus and cortex in rats from the dementia group was reduced. It was concluded that there were different degrees of reducing in the dendritic spine density of different brain regions in SYDD group. ZBPYR improved the learning and memory impairment, which might be related to the maintenance of dendritic spine density in different brain regions.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of serum level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF),angiopoietin (Ang)-1 and Ang-2 in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA).Methods Serum levels of VEGF,Ang-1 and Ang-2 were measured with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Twenty-one healthy subjects,24 osteoarthritis patients and 82 rheumatoid arthritis patients were included.We defined active and inactive group according to RA disease active score,while early active RA and late active RA group were defined on the basis of disease course.There were 28 early active patients,32 late active patients and 22 inactive patients with rheumatoid arthritis.At the same time 29 RA patients were examined with ultrasound.Synovial hypertrophy (US joint count SH,US index SH),synovial fluid(US joint count SF,US index SF),resistance index and power Doppler signal (US joint PD,TSS) were scored.The correlation was analyzed.We also detected the serum levels of VEGF,Ang-1,Ang-2,ESR,CRP and DAS28 in 25patients with active RA after 3 month regular treatment.We used one-way ANOVA to compare the differences between groups,and Wilcoxon test to compare the differences between before and after treatment.We analyzed the correlation with linear correlation or Spearman rank test.Results The serum level of VEGF [(1285 ±272) pg/ml],Ang-1 [(0.55±0.25)ng/ml] in patients with rheumatoid arthritis were higher than osteoarthritis patients [(934±80) pg/ml,(0.32±0.16) ng/ml] and normal controls [(565±115) pg/ml,(0.24±0.21) ng/ml],and the serum level of Ang-2 [(1.36±0.40) ng/ml] was higher than normal controls [(0.52±0.32) ng/ml].The serum level of VEGF [(1355±194) pg/ml] in early active patients was higher than late active patients [(1096±477) pg/ml] and inactive patients [(862±91) pg/ml].The serum level of Ang-1 in early active patients,late active patients and inactive patients with rheumatoid arthritis had no statistically significant differences.The serum level of Ang-2 in inactive patients [(2.0±2.0) ng/ml] was significantly higher than late active patients [0.9±0.8) ng/ml].The serum level of VEGF was positively correlated with US joint SH,US index SH,US joint PD,and TSS.The serum level of Ang-1 was positively correlated with US joint SH,US joint PD,and TSS.The serum level of VEGF and Ang-1 were negatively correlated with RI.The serum level of Ang-2 was not correlated with US joint SH,US index SH,US joint SF,US index SF,US joint PD,TSS and RI.In the active RA patients,the serum level of VEGF,Ang-1 and Ang-2 was positively correlated with each other.In the inactive RA patients,the serum level of VEGF,Ang-1 and Ang-2 was not correlated with each other.The serum level of VEGF and Ang-1 before treatment was slightly higher than that of after treatment,but the difference was not statistically significant.The serum level of Ang-2 after treatment was significantly higher than that before treatment.ESR,CRP and DAS28 of after treatment were lower than those before treatment.Conclusion The serum VEGF and Ang-1 level could be used as useful index to reflect RA synovial thickening and angiogenesis The serum level of Ang-2 could be used as one of the efficacy indices.They may influence each other,and they may be the key factors that mediate the onset and development of RA angiogenesis and synovial inflammation.

Objective To investigate effect of Dahuang Fuzi decoction on alveolaur epithelial barrier in rats with lung injury with severe acute pancreatitis. Method Ninty-six health SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: sham operation group, SAP-ALI group, Dahuang Fuzi decoction group, and then according to the time point of sacrifice after operation, each group was subdivided into 3,6,12,24 hour subsets ( each, n = 8). After the belly of a rat in the sham operation group was cut open, the pancreas was flipped several times,and then a stoma was made in the jejunum to form its fistula. In the SAP-ALl group,1 mL/kg sodium taurocholate was reversely injected into the pancreatobile duct to establish the model of SAP, and then the jejimum fistula was performed. The SAP-ALI model in Dahuang Fuzi decoction group was treated by injection of 10ml of Dahuang Fuzi decoctionon into the fistula respectively. Blood was collected from heart to detect serum amvlase and endotoxin (ET) levels before the rat being executed. The lung histopathologic changes, pulmonary injury scores and wet/dry weight(W/D) ratios were observed after the rats were executed. The alveolar liquid clearance rate(ALCR), total lung water content (TLW), extravascular lung water content(EVLW) and alveolar epithelial permeability (AEP) were examined in 3,6, 12,24 h after injury.Results There was continuous increase of AEP,TLW and EVLW,as well as progressive reduction of ALCR compared with sham operation group at 3,6,12,24 h after operation. Compared with SAP-ALI group, there was continuous decrease of AEP,TLW and EVLW, and elevated of ALCR at 3,6,12,24 h after operation.Conclusions Dahuang Fuzi decoction can significantly reduce alveolaur epithelial barrier and degree of lung tissue of SAP-ALI rats by inhibiting the elevation of LPS and inflammation reaction.

Objective: To investigate the features of literature on hand-transmitted vibration in China, 1990-2016. Methods: In September 2017, the studies on hand-transmitted vibration in China, which were published in Chinese or English during 1990-2016, with "China" and "Taiwan" as the places where author affiliations were located, were retrieved.

Results: A total of 205 articles on hand-transmitted vibration were retrieved. There were 7.59 articles on average published annually from 1990 to 2016. In the 205 articles, 114 (55.61%) were published in the journals indexed in one or two core journal databases. In the 64 journals, 22 (34.38%) were indexed in one or two core journal databases. The first authors were from 22 provincial regions (provinces, autonomous regions, or centrally administered municipalities) in China, with 152 articles (74.15%) by the authors in the top five regions. There were a total of 876 authors, and the co-authorship degree was 4.27 (876/205). Most of the first authors (136 articles, 66.34%) were affiliated with universities or institutes for prevention and control of occupational diseases. Among the 205 articles, 103 (50.24%) were original articles or investigations, and 72 (35.12%) were funded. Conclusion The studies on hand-transmitted vibration fluctuated and increased from 1990 to 2016, with a relatively concentrated distribution in terms of sources, regions, and institutions. Interregional and international academic exchange should be strengthened.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and risk factors of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) caused by wasp sting.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to collect the general data of wasp sting patients who had a clear history of wasp sting disease and clinical manifestations from June 2016 to December 2020 and were first diagnosed as wasp sting in hospital. Patients with hematological diseases, malignant tumors, severe liver and kidney dysfunction, cardiac insufficiency, and patients who had received hormone therapy before admission were excluded. Patients who were unable to obtain effective laboratory results due to hemolysis or other reasons within 48 h of admission were also excluded. The white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count (NEU), lymphocyte count (LYM), hemoglobin count (HB), myoglobin (Mb/MYO), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), albumin (ALB), K, Na, and Cl of the blood samples collected within 48 h after admission were recorded. Patients were divided into the MODS group and non-MODS group according to whether MODS occurred during hospitalization. Uni- and multivariate analysis were used to analyze the factors affecting the occurrence of MODS in wasp sting patients during hospitalization, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to evaluate the predictive effect of myoglobin level on the occurrence of MODS in wasp sting patients during hospitalization.Results:Mb, WBC, NEU, APTT and serum potassium in the MODS group [3890.00 (1416.90-4057.00) ng/mL, (21.99 ± 8.18) × 10 9/L, (19.61 ± 7.33)× 10 9/L, (93.75 ± 45.77) s, and (4.99 ± 0.95) mmol/L] were significantly higher than those in the non-MODS group [73.50 (34.30-264.20) ng/mL, (13.40 ± 4.14)× 10 9/L, (11.18±4.73)× 10 9/L, (37.00 ± 17.16) s, and (4.05 ± 0.56) mmol/L] (all P < 0.05); blood chlorine and ALB [(101.50 (98.25-105.00) mmol/L and (35.36 ± 6.44) g/L)] were significantly lower than those in the non-MODS group [(105.00 (103.00-107.00) mmol/L and (40.71 ± 5.48) g/L)] (all P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that NEU ( OR = 0.729, 95% CI: 0.542~0.981), Mb ( OR = 0.999, 95% CI: 0.998~1.000), and APTT ( OR = 0.951, 95% CI: 0.921~0.982) were independent risk factors for MODS in wasp sting patients. ROC curve analysis showed that NEU, Mb and APTT could be used to evaluate the occurrence of MODS in wasp sting patients. Among them, Mb had the highest predictive value (AUC = 0.950, 95 % CI: 0.891~0.982). The optimal cutoff value of Mb for predicting the occurrence of MODS in wasp sting patients was 515.30 ng/mL, and the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 90.62% and 87.23%, respectively. Conclusion:Mb is an independent risk factor for MODS in wasp sting patients, which can be used as a good predictor of MODS in wasp sting patients.
