Objective:To investigate the difference of clinical characteristics of children and adults with brucellosis osteoarthritis in Yinchuan, Ningxia.Methods:The clinical data of patients with brucellosis osteoarthritis who were diagnosed in General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from January 2009 to September 2019 were collected retrospectively. According to age, the patients were divided into two groups: children (0-14 years old, 50 cases) and adults (≥15 years old, 236 cases). Epidemiological characteristics, clinical manifestations and laboratory examination results of the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results:Among children, 39 were males and 11 were females, school age children (8-14 years old, 25 cases) were more common; among adults, 179 were males and 57 were females, middle-aged and elderly people (46-65 years old, 128 cases) were more common. The peak incidence of both groups was from March to August (39 children and 142 adults). In the two groups, a total of 266 patients (40 children and 226 adults) were recorded with a history of exposure, of which 226 patients (28 children and 198 adults) had contacted with cattle, sheep and other live animals. In clinical manifestations, compared with children, adults had higher incidences of low back pain [38.00% (19/50) vs 63.98% (151/236)], hyperhidrosis [6.00% (3/50) vs 30.08% (71/236)] and fatigue [8.00% (4/50) vs 34.75% (82/236)], and lower incidences of single joint pain [70.00% (35/50) vs 19.49% (46/236)], fever [72.00% (36/50) vs 49.15% (116/236)], and lymph node enlargement [30.00% (15/50) vs 2.54% (6/236)], and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). Among children, the knee joint involvement (62.00%, 31/50) and hip joint involvement (42.00%, 21/50) were more common, but spinal involvement was not found; while among adults, spinal involvement (55.51%, 131/236) was the most common. The incidences of elevated white blood cell count [18.00% (9/50) vs 6.36% (15/236)], elevated percentage of lymphocytes [82.00% (41/50) vs 27.12% (64/236)], elevated platelet [24.00% (12/50) vs 8.90% (21/236)], elevated aspartate aminotransferase [64.00% (32/50) vs 30.08% (71/236)], elevated alanine aminotransferase [38.00% (19/50) vs 20.76% (49/236)] and anemia [42.00% (21/50) vs 16.53% (39/236)] in children were higher than those in adults; the incidences of elevated percentage of neutrophils [0 (0/50) vs 9.75% (23/236)], hypoalbuminemia [2.00% (1/50) vs 14.41% (34/236)], low sodium [2.00% (1/50) vs 10.17% (24/236)], elevated C-reactive protein [50.00% (25/50) vs 77.12% (182/236)] in children were lower than those in adults, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The positive rate of blood culture in children (65.22%, 30/46) was higher than that in adults (40.54%, 60/148), and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:There are differences in clinical characteristics between children and adults with brucellosis osteoarthritis in Yinchuan, Ningxia. In particular, there is a significant difference between children and adults in the location of bone and joint involvement.

Objective To explore the relationship between behavioral psychological symptoms in Alzheimer' s dementia(AD) patients and region-specific alterations in cerebral blood flow. Methods 60 patients with AD randomly selected from a psychiatric outpatient department and 30 randomly selected healthy elderly community controls were administered the Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE). All subjects underwent a perfusion CT scan to assess blood perfusion in brain regions of interest. The AD subjects were administered the behavioral patholigy in alzheimer' s disease(BEHAVE-AD) Rating Scale classified as mild, moderate or severe based on the results of the Clinical Dementia Rating scale. Results The most incidence was conduct disorder and the next was delusion.The score was 81.7% and 58.3% in turn. The conduct disorder score was higher in the severe demented group than in the mildly and moderate demented group(P<0. 05). The delusion score was higher in the moderate demented group than that in the mildly demented group(P<0.05). The time to peak(TTP)scores in the four groups of subjects were significantly different in the bilateral hippocampal formation, anteroinferior subiculum and entorhinal area. The TTP score was significantly higher in the moderately demented group than that in the mildly demented group and the control group(P<0. 05 ). Correlation analysis identified a positive correlation between conduct disorder, delusions and TTP in cerebral heteroplasia cortex (P < 0. 05 ), also identified a negative correlation between mood disorder and TTP(P<0. 05 ). Conclusion The conduct disorder,delusions and mood disorder in AD are associated with the chronicity ischemia of cerebral heteroplasia cortex leading to neural conduction disorders.

This study investigated the modulatory effect of synthetic cannabinoids WIN55,212-2 on 5-HT(3) receptor-activated currents (I(5-HT3)) in cultured rat trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons using whole-cell patch clamp technique. The results showed that: (1) The majority of examined neurons (78.70%) were sensitive to 5-HT (3-300 μmol/L). 5-HT induced inward currents in a concentration-dependent manner and the currents were blocked by ICS 205-930 (1 μmol/L), a selective antagonist of the 5-HT(3) receptor; (2) Pre-application of WIN55,212-2 (0.01-1 μmol/L) significantly inhibited I(5-HT3) reversibly in concentration-dependent and voltage-independent manners. The concentration-response curve of 5-HT(3) receptor was shifted downward by WIN55,212-2 without any change of the threshold value. The EC(50) values of two curves were very close (17.5±4.5) μmol/L vs. (15.2±4.5) μmol/L and WIN55,212-2 decreased the maximal amplitude of I(5-HT3) by (48.65±4.15)%; (3) Neither AM281, a selective CB1 receptor antagonist, nor AM630, a selective CB2 receptor antagonist reversed the inhibition of I(5-HT3) by WIN55,212-2; (4) When WIN55,212-2 was given from 15 to 120 s before 5-HT application, inhibitory effect was gradually increased and the maximal inhibition took place at 90 s, and the inhibition remained at the same level after 90 s. We are led to concluded that-WIN55,212-2 inhibited I(5-HT3) significantly and neither CB1 receptor antagonist nor CB2 receptor antagonist could reverse the inhibition of I(5-HT3) by WIN55,212-2. Moreover, WIN55,212-2 is not an open channel blocker (OCB) of 5-HT(3) receptor. WIN55,212-2 significantly inhibited 5-HT-activated currents in a non-competitive manner. The inhibition of I(5-HT3) by WIN55,212-2 is probably new one of peripheral analgesic mechanisms of WIN55,212-2, but the mechanism by which WIN55,212-2 inhibits I(5-HT3) warrants further investigation.

BACKGROUND:
LY01005 (Goserelin acetate sustained-release microsphere injection) is a modified gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist injected monthly. This phase III trial study aimed to evaluated the efficacy and safety of LY01005 in Chinese patients with prostate cancer.
METHODS:
We conducted a randomized controlled, open-label, non-inferiority trial across 49 sites in China. This study included 290 patients with prostate cancer who received either LY01005 or goserelin implants every 28 days for three injections. The primary efficacy endpoints were the percentage of patients with testosterone suppression ≤50 ng/dL at day 29 and the cumulative probability of testosterone ≤50 ng/dL from day 29 to 85. Non-inferiority was prespecified at a margin of -10%. Secondary endpoints included significant castration (≤20 ng/dL), testosterone surge within 72 h following repeated dosing, and changes in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prostate specific antigen levels.
RESULTS:
On day 29, in the LY01005 and goserelin implant groups, testosterone concentrations fell below medical-castration levels in 99.3% (142/143) and 100% (140/140) of patients, respectively, with a difference of -0.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], -3.9% to 2.0%) between the two groups. The cumulative probabilities of maintaining castration from days 29 to 85 were 99.3% and 97.8%, respectively, with a between-group difference of 1.5% (95% CI, -1.3% to 4.4%). Both results met the criterion for non-inferiority. Secondary endpoints were similar between groups. Both treatments were well-tolerated. LY01005 was associated with fewer injection-site reactions than the goserelin implant (0% vs . 1.4% [2/145]).
CONCLUSION:
LY01005 is as effective as goserelin implants in reducing testosterone to castration levels, with a similar safety profile.
