Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is one of the main factors that threaten human health and life.WHO data show that about 3.3 million people die each year worldwide due to AUD.AUD has become a global public health concern,but its neurobiological and behavioral mechanisms remain unclear.Therefore,it is particularly urgent to develop valid and reliable animal models to investigate the underlying mechanisms of AUD.This review summarizes the animal species and modeling methods of AUD in order to explore the potential influence on the deviation of modeling in alcohol intake and provide helpful inputs to behavioral research of AUD.

Objective To explore the efficacy of trazodone replacement treatment on benzodiazepine drugs dependence and effect of cognitive function on senile patients.Methods 51 senile patients with benzodiazepine drugs dependence were assigned with dosage tacho-decrement and replaced by trazodone.The patients were discontinuanced taking benzodiazepine in 14 days and taken at a draught of trazodone before retiring about 6 months.Clinical effect and side effects were assessed with the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQJ) and treatment emergent symptom scale(TESS) before and after treatment.Cognitive function was evaluated with Wechsler intelligence scale for adult-Chinese revised (WAIS-RC) and Wechsler mermory scale for adult-Chinese revised ( WMS-RC ) once before and after treatment.Results The scores total PSQJ( ( 13.17 ± 3.70),( 11.05 ± 3.48 ) ),the sleep quality( (2.36 ± 0.33 ),( 1.91 ± 0.29 ) ),daily function disorder,sleep disorder were significantly lower than before treatment while the other factor scores were not significantly changed.Trazodone wes effective without severe side effects and dependence.The study group showed significantly lower scores in learning,calculation,the signs of figure,wood puzzles,long-term memory,short-term memory,immediate memory,memory quotient in the assessment of cognitive function than after treatmemt (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion Trazodone is an ideal medicine to senile insomnia.
