Objective: To study the protective effects of tetrahydropalmatine (THP) against ischemia-reperfusion induced hippocamp lesion in rats. MethodS: A model of ischemia-reperfusion induced brain lesion was set up by ligation of common carotid arteria in rats, and the protective effects of THP was observed. Results: It was found that, with administration of THP, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSHPx) and Na+, K+-ATPase as well as Ca2+-ATPase were increased (P<0.05, respectively), while malondialehyde (MDA) was decreased to 42.5% (P<0.01) during brain ischemia-reperfusion. Conclusion:The results suggested that THP can protect the rat against ischemia-reperfusion induced brain lesion.

BACKGROUND: Ischemic postconditioning protects the myocardium from ischemia/recursion injury via maintaining 3-minute acidosis initially. But its effect on the skeletal muscle remains unclear. OBJECTIVE: To dynamically measure the pH values in rat skeletal muscle after ischemia, and then to simulate acidic perfusate infusion to investigate the effect of ischemic postconditioning on ischemia/reperfusion injury. METHODS: Based on the ischemia/reperfusion injury model and ischemic postconditioning protocol in previous study, dynamic measurement of pH values in rat skeletal muscle was conducted using pH instrument at the global ischemia, ischemic postconditioning (30/30 seconds) and reperfusion period, and then the acidic perfusate equivalent to pH in ischemic postconditioning period was prepared with lactic acid and normal saline. Twenty-five healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham, ischemia/reperfusion, ischemic postconditioning, lactic acid, and normal saline groups (n=5 per group). Blood samples were collected to detect lactate dehydrogenase level. The samples from gastrocnemius were harvested to calculate the wet/dry ratio, level of myeloperoxidase, and infarct size through triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining. The samples from the right tibialis anterior muscle were taken to detect the expression level of Erk1/2 in the MAPK signaling pathway by western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: A prolonged acidic platform was detected in the early reperfusion during ischemic postconditioning, on which the pH value was 6.81±0.133, and the duration was 2 minutes and 40 seconds. The levels of lactate dehydrogenase and myeloperoxidase as well as the wet/dry ratio in the ischemic postconditioning and lactic acid groups were significantly lower than those in the ischemia/reperfusion group (P < 0.05). Western blot assay results showed that the expression level of p-Erk in the ischemic postconditioning, lactic acid and normal saline groups was significantly higher than that in the ischemia/reperfusion group (P < 0.05). Triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining results showed that compared with the ischemia/reperfusion group, the infarct area was significantly reduced in the postconditioning and lactic acid groups (P < 0.05). These findings suggest the existence of a short acidosis during ischemic postconditioning in the early reperfusion, and acidic perfusate can simulate the ischemic postconditioning and effectively attenuate ischemia/reperfusion injury in the rat skeletal muscle via activating Erk1/2 in RISK signaling pathway.

Objective:
To explore the relationship between physical activity, screen time, sleep duration and physical health of middle school students, to provide reference for physical health intervention in middle school students.
Methods:
A total of 1 614 students from 12 middle schools in Tianjin were investigated by stratified random cluster sampling. According to the "Canadian 24 Hour Movement Guidelines for Children and Youth", participants were divided into 4 groups: "full qualified group", "2 item qualified group", "1 item qualified group" and "unqualified group". Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to predict physical health risk.
Results:
Only 5.2% boys and 4.2% girls met the standard in all three behaviors, and 16.4% boys and 16.3% girls failed to meet the standard in all three behaviors. The excellent and good rates were 77.7% and 71.8% in the 2 item qualified group and the full qualified group, respectively. The physical health risk of middle school students with insufficient physical activity was 1.76 times higher than that of those who achieved the standard, and the physical health risk of students with too much screen time was 1.34 times higher than that of those who achieved the standard. Physical health risk of middle school students with insufficient sleep duration was 2.86 times higher than that of those who achieved the standard, and the risk of overweight and obesity was 1.49 times higher than that of those who achieved the standard ( P <0.05). Compared with the middle school students who achieved all the standards, physical health risk of unqualified group was 3.63 times, and that of the 1 item qualified group was 2.10 times ( P < 0.01 ).
Conclusion
Middle school students meet two or more recommendations in physical activity, screen time and sleep duration are more likely to have better physical health and lower risk of overweight and obesity. The findings suggest that students should engage in active sports to increase the high intensity of physical activity, reduce screen time, maintain a healthy sleep habits, in order to obtain better health level.

The Journal of Clinical Anesthesiology 2017;33(10):1021-1024
Objective To investigate the effects of sevoflurane exposure on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA)axis development in neonatal rats.Methods Fifty-four SD rats (P6)were randomly divided into three groups:control group (group C),sevoflurane group (group S)and bu-metanide+sevoflurane group (group BS),n = 18 in each group.In group C,rats were treated with pure oxygen for 6 hours and rats in group S received 2.1% sevoflurane anesthesia for 6 h.Rats in group BS also received 2.1% sevoflurane anesthesia for 6 h,but they were injected with bumetanide before 30 min and at 3 h during the anesthesia.6 rats from each group were randomly selected and the tail blood was collected to measure the corticosterone in the serum using ELISA.Remaining rats in each group were normally housed to P60.A elevated plus maze (EPM)were employed to investigate the anxiety-like behavior,and restraint stress were used to evaluate the function of HPA axis. Results In P6 rats,sevoflurane significantly increased the serum corticosterone level (P < 0.01 ) while bumetanide pretreatment decreased corticosterone level (P <0.01).In P60 rats,neonatal expo-sure to sevoflurane decreased the visits and time spent in the open arms of EPM (P < 0.05 ),in-creased the corticosterone level pre-stress and post-stress (P <0.05 or P < 0.01 ).Pretreatment of bumetanide normalized serum corticosterone level and the anxiety behavior in the EPM. Conclusion Neonatal sevoflurane exposure caused hyperactive HPA axis in rats,which is normalized by bumetanide pretreatment through blocking GABAA receptors.
