The modern statistical and data mining technology is used to analyze the law of the acupoint selection in the treatment of insomnia with acupuncture and moxibustion. The clinical literature on the treatment of insomnia with acupuncture and moxibustion in recent 10 years is collected from China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI). Excel software is applied to establish the database of acupuncture prescriptions for insomnia so as to conduct the descriptive analysis, association rule analysis and clustering analysis on the data. In the treatment of insomnia with acupuncture and moxibustion, Shenmen (HT 7) is of the highest frequency and most acupoints were selected from the Governor Vessel. The commonly used acupoints are located on the head, face, neck and nape region. The combination of the local acupoints with the distal ones is predominated. The crossing points among the specific points present the advantage in the treatment. The association: rule analysis indicates the highest, correlation among Taixi (KI 3), Sishencong (EX-HN 1) and Shenmen (HT 7). The clustering analysis results in 6 effective clusters and 10 pairs of key points and summarizes the common law of the acupoint combination for insomnia. All of these provide the reference to the treatment of insomnia with acupuncture and moxibustion.

Objective: To observe the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) at Neiguan (PC6) on arrhythmia during acute myocardial ischemia-reperfusion and the expression of connexin 43 (Cx43) in rats. Methods: A total of 40 Sprague-Dawley male rats were used. Ten rats were randomly selected as the blank group, and the remaining 30 rats were randomly divided into a model group and an EA group, with 15 rats in each group. Before modeling, rats in the EA group received one session of EA intervention at bilateral Neiguan (PC6) for 30 min; the other groups were treated with the same grasping and anesthesia for 30 min without intervention. PowerLab physiological recorder was used to record electrocardiograph within 30 min of infarction. After the experiment, cardiac tissue and serum were collected from rats. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the morphological changes of myocardial tissue in the ventricular infarction area of rats in each group. The expression of Cx43 protein in the myocardium of each group was detected by Western blotting (WB). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase in myocardial tissue and the serum content of endogenous digitalis-like factor (EDLF) in rats. Results: There was no statistical difference in arrhythmia score between the EA group and the model group, but the total duration and average duration of arrhythmia in the EA group were decreased (P<0.01). HE staining showed that compared with the blank group, myocardial cells in the model group were disorganized and seriously damaged. The pathological changes in the EA group were similar to those in the model group, but the damage was relatively minor. The results of WB showed that compared with the blank group, the Cx43 expression in myocardial tissue of the model group was decreased (P<0.01); compared with the model group, the Cx43 expression in the EA group was increased (P<0.01); compared with the blank group, the Na+-K+-ATPase activity in myocardial tissue of the model group was significantly decreased (P<0.01); compared with the model group, the Na+-K+-ATPase activity in the EA group was increased (P<0.01). ELISA results showed that compared with the blank group, the serum EDLF content in the model group was significantly increased (P<0.01); compared with the model group, the EDLF content in the EA group was decreased (P<0.01). Conclusion: EA at Neiguan (PC6) can delay and reduce the onset of arrhythmia during myocardial infarction in the rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion. Its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of the Cx43 expression in myocardial tissue, improvement of the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase in myocardial tissue, and increase in the content of serum EDLF.

This study was performed to determine the metabolic profile of four amide synthetic cannabinoids that recently abused, i.e., ADB-4en-PINACA, 4CN-CUMYL-BUTINACA, 5F-EMB-PICA and 4F-MDMB-BUTICA, in human liver microsomes (HLMs). The four amide synthetic cannabinoids were added to the microsomal incubation model, being incubated for 10 min, 60 min or 3 h to simulate human hepatic metabolism.Liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-QTOF-MS) analytical instrument was employed to determine and speculate the structure of phase I metabolites and their possible metabolic pathways.The results showed that there were 27 phase I metabolic pathways for the four amide synthetic cannabinoids, including hydroxylation, carboxylation, N-dealkylation and ester hydrolysis, with the main phase I metabolic pathways of ester hydrolysis, dihydrodiol (pentenyl tail), oxidative defluorination to carboxylic acid, monohydroxylation (alkyl side chain or indole/indazole ring) and N-dealkylation.The results of this study may provide potential detection markers for forensic identification and sewage abuse assessment of the four amide synthetic cannabinoids.

OBJECTIVETo compare and estimate the diagnostic value and characteristic of different diagnostic methods (blood laboratory test, histological analysis, synovial fluid cytological test and microbiological examination) in detecting the presence of periprosthetic joint infection.
METHODSData of 52 patients underwent hip or knee joint revision in Peking University People's Hospital Arthritis Clinic and Research Center between July 2013 and March 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. For each patient, results of blood laboratory tests(peripheral-blood white blood cell, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (Hs-CRP)), histological analysis, synovial fluid white cell count (SWCC), microbiological examinations (synovial fluid, tissue and prosthetic joint sonication fluid) were collected. Data were analyzed by t-test, independent sample median test or χ(2) test, respectively. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and accuracy for each method were calculated and compared by receiver operating characteristic curve.
RESULTSThere were 30 female and 22 male patients. Twenty-one patients (40.4%) were diagnosed as PJI. The levels of CRP, ESR, IL-6 and Hs-CRP in patients with PJI were higher than that in aseptic failure patients (Z=23.084, 13.499, 5.796, 17.045, all P<0.05). The sensitivities of CRP, ESR, IL-6 and Hs-CRP were 90.5%, 81.0%, 95.0% and 90.0%. The sensitivities of histological analysis and SWCC were 55.0% and 70.6%, while they had high specificity as 89.7% and 85.7%. The sensitivity of sonication fluid culture was 90.0%, which was higher than that of tissue culture (71.4%) and synovial fluid culture (65.0%) (χ(2) = 5.333, 6.400, all P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONSThe tests of CRP, ESR, IL-6 and Hs-CRP have good value in detecting PJI preoperatively. Histological analysis and SWCC have high specificity, which could help to exclude PJI. Sonication fluid culture has a higher sensitivity than tissue culture and synovial fluid culture.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of hypothermic antegrade machine perfusion against canine ischemic brain injury.Methods:Thirteen beagle dogs were divided into the mild hypothermia with perfusion group ( n=6) and normothermia with perfusion group ( n=7) according to the random number table. The model of ischemic brain injury was established by neck transection. After 1 hour of ischemic circulatory arrest, the perfusion fluid based on autologous blood was continuously perfused through bilateral common carotid artery for 6 hours. The temperature of the perfusion fluid was set at 33 ℃ in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group and 37℃ in the normothermia with perfusion group, respectively. Blood oxygen saturation was recorded at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours after the beginning of perfusion to evaluate the perfusate oxygen level. The perfusate was collected, and the levels of Na +, K +, Ca 2+ and glucose as well as the pH value of the perfusate were detected in the two groups. At the end of perfusion, the parietal brain tissues of 1 dog from each group were collected to evaluate the water contents of brain tissues. Nissl staining was used to evaluate the morphological integrity of the pyramidal neurons in the frontal cortex and hippocampus. Neuronal nuclei antigen (NeuN) was used to evaluate the structural and morphological integrity of pyramidal neurons. Immunofluorescence glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ionic calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 (Iba1) were used to evaluate the integrity and activity of astrocytes and microglia fragments. Results:At 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours of perfusion, there was no significant difference in the blood oxygen saturation or Na + concentrations between the two groups (all P>0.05); the K + concentrations in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were (4.57±0.12)mmol/L, (4.67±0.14)mmol/L, (4.27±0.12)mmol/L, (4.45±0.10)mmol/L, (6.60±0.15)mmol/L, (7.37±0.18)mmol/L and (9.03±0.16)mmol/L, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the normothermia with perfusion group [(4.84±0.10)mmol/L, (5.31±0.13)mmol/L, (5.44±0.24)mmol/L, (5.70±0.18)mmol/L, (7.79±0.18)mmol/L, (10.44±0.40)mmol/L, (10.40±0.41)mmol/L] (all P<0.01). At 0, 1, 2 and 3 hours of perfusion, the Ca 2+ concentrations in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were (0.72±0.15)mmol/L, (1.55±0.16)mmol/L, (1.62±0.15)mmol/L and (1.88±0.15)mmol/L, respectively, being significantly higher than those in the normothermia with perfusion group [(0.41±0.13)mmol/L, (0.99±0.12)mmol/L, (1.29±0.13)mmol/L, (1.57±0.11)mmol/L] (all P<0.01), and no significant differences were found at other time points (all P>0.05). At 0, 1 and 2 hours of perfusion, the glucose concentrations in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were (5.75±0.19)mmol/L, (5.17±0.15)mmol/L and (4.72±0.15)mmol/L, respectively, being significantly higher than those in the normothermia with perfusion group [(5.30±0.22)mmol/L, (4.89±0.20)mmol/L, (4.30±0.17)mmol/L] (all P<0.01), with no significant differences found at other time points (all P>0.05). At 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours of perfusion, the pH values of the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were 7.32±0.06, 7.25±0.02, 7.23±0.02, 7.24±0.02 and 7.24±0.02, respectively, being significantly higher than those in the normothermia with perfusion group (7.26±0.01, 7.21±0.01, 7.17±0.02, 7.15±0.02, 7.08±0.02) ( P<0.05 or 0.01), with no significant differences at other time points (all P>0.05). The water content of brain tissues in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group was (74.9±0.4)%, which was significantly lower than (79.9±0.9)% in the normothermia with perfusion group ( P<0.01). Nissl staining showed that the pyramidal neurons in prefrontal cortex and dentate gyrus had good integrity in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group. NeuN immunofluorescence staining showed that the morphology and structure of pyramidal neuron cells in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group were better with clearly visible axons than those in the normothermia with perfusion group, whereas the cytosol was full and swollen with scarce axons in the normothermia with perfusion group. GFAP and Iba1 immunofluorescence staining showed that more structurally intact glial cells, more abnormally active cells, thickener axons and better axon integrity in all directions were found in the mild hypothermia with perfusion group than those in the normothermia with perfusion group. Conclusion:Compared with normal temperature antegrade mechanical perfusion, the mild hypothermia antegrade mechanical perfusion can protect canine brain tissue and alleviate ischemic brain injury by maintaining stable energy and oxygen supply, balancing ion homeostasis and perfusion fluid pH value, reducing tissue edema, and maintaining low metabolism of pyramidal neurons, astrocytes and microglia.

Objective To summarize the experience and practical value of living donor kidney harvesting in Bama miniature pigs with six gene modified. Methods The left kidney of Bama miniature pigs with six gene modified was obtained by living donor kidney harvesting technique. First, the ureter was occluded, and then the inferior vena cava and abdominal aorta were freed. During the harvesting process, the ureter, renal vein and renal artery were exposed and freed in sequence. The vascular forceps were used at the abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava, and the renal artery and vein were immediately perfused with 4℃ renal preservation solution, and stored in ice normal saline for subsequent transplantation. Simultaneously, the donor abdominal aorta and inferior vena cava gap were sutured. The operation time, blood loss, warm and cold ischemia time, postoperative complications and the survival of donors and recipients were recorded. Results The left kidney of the genetically modified pig was successfully harvested. Intraoperative bleeding was 5 mL, warm ischemia time was 45 s, and cold ischemia time was 2.5 h. Neither donor nor recipient pig received blood transfusion, and urinary function of the kidney transplanted into the recipient was recovered. The donor survived for more than 8 months after the left kidney was resected. Conclusions Living donor kidney harvesting is safe and reliable in genetically modified pigs. Branch blood vessels could be processed during kidney harvesting, which shortens the process of kidney repair and the time of cold ischemia. Living donor kidney harvesting contributes to subsequent survival of donors and other scientific researches.
