Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2009;16(3):477-478
Objective To study the effect on aiding treatment of patients with dysmenorrhea through psychological intervention.Methods Sixty patients with dysmenorrhea were randomly divied into the intervention group and the control group with 30 cases in each group.The contrd group were treated with allopathy and normal care.On the base of such ineasures,the intervention group were treated with psychological interventions like congnitive regulation,emotion regulation and behavioral regulation.Results The average pain degree of the control group was Ⅱ-Ⅲ.The average pain degree ofthe intervene group Was Ⅰ-Ⅱ.The results ofthe two groups were eonpred.P<0.01 and the difference was significant.The average dose of Atuopin in the control group was 0.60mg.and the average dose of Atuopin in the intervention group was 0.43 mg.P<0.01 and the difference of the two groups is obvious.The average time being in bed in the control group was 5.85 hours,and the average time beingin bed in the intervene group was 3.2.5 hours.The results of the two groups were compared,P<0.01and the difference is significant.Conclusion The intervention can apparently improve patients' symptoms of pain.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the association of desmoplakin with the distribution and function of Nav1.5 by RNA silencing technology in HL-1 cells.
METHODSHL-1 cells with desmoplakin expression suppression by RNA silencing were examined for desmoplakin and Nav1.5 protein expressions by Western blotting, and the distribution and co-location of desmoplakin and Nav1.5 protein were detected by immunofluorescence staining. Patch-clamp recording was applied to analyze the changes in whole-cell sodium current after desmoplakin silencing.
RESULTSCompared with the untreated group and negative control group, the cells with desmoplakin silencing showed obviously reduced expressions of desmoplakin and Nav1.5 proteins. Co-localization of desmoplakin and Nav1.5 was detected at cell-cell contact in untreated and control conditions, and desmoplakin expression silencing induced a drastic redistribution of Nav1.5 with decreased peak current density (156.3∓6.2 vs 41.8∓3.1, n=6, P<0.05), a shift in voltage dependence of steady-state inactivation (-42 mV vs -61 mV, n=5, P<0.05), and prolonged time of recovery from inactivation.
CONCLUSIONDesmoplakin silencing caused redistribution of Nav1.5 protein and also changes in its electrophysiological properties in HL-1 cells.

AIM:To investigate whether the association of connexin 43 ( Cx43 ) and L-type calcium channel involved in the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation ( AF) .METHODS:The biochemical assays and whole-cell patch-clamp technique were used to study the expression of Cx43 in human atrial tissue.The co-localization of Cx43 and L-type calcium channel, and the regulation of L-type calcium current in atrial myocytes were investigated.RESULTS:The expression of Cx43 at mRNA and protein levels was decreased in human atrial tissues of AF patients.In cultured atrium-derived myocytes ( HL-1 cells) , knockdown of Cx43 significantly inhibited the mRNA expression of L-type calcium channelα1c subunit, as well as L-type calcium current.Co-localization of Cx43 with L-type calcium channel α1c subunit in mouse atrial myocytes was observed.CONCLUSION:The decrease in Cx43 is involved in the pathogenesis of AF, probably through reducing the L-type calcium current in atrial myoctyes by co-localization with L-type calcium channel, thus representing the potential pathogenesis in atrial fibrillation.

Objective:To compare the predictive value of parameters extracted from circular region-of-interest (ROI) with whole-liver histogram on gadoxetic acid disodium (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced T 1 map for postoperative liver failure in patients with liver focal lesions. Methods:The data of patients who underwent Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI for focal liver lesions in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from March 2016 to March 2018 were analyzed retrospectively. Forty patients were enrolled, including 30 males and 10 females, aged (56.6±12.1) years. According to the occurrence of postoperative liver failure, forty patients were divided into liver failure group ( n=14) and control group ( n=26). The parameters extracted from circular ROIs and whole liver histogram on T 1 map before Gd-EOB-DTPA enhancement and in hepatobiliary phase (HBP) were compared between the two groups. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the value of these parameters in predicting postoperative liver failure. Results:The mean, standard deviation, median and 95% quantile of T 1 HBP in histogram parameters of liver failure group were significantly higher than those of control group (all P<0.05). The three parameters extracted from circular ROIs were not effective in predicting liver failure after hepatectomy (all P>0.05). Among all the liver histogram parameters, the area under the ROC curve of the 95% quantile before T 1 enhancement for predicting postoperative liver failure was 0.702 (95% CI: 0.523-0.881), the standard deviation of T 1 HBP was 0.739 (95% CI: 0.568-0.910), and the 95% quantile of T 1 HBP was 0.721 (95% CI: 0.540-0.903). The predictive efficacy were good (all P<0.05). Among them, the predictive performance of T 1 HBP standard deviation was the best, the area under the ROC curve was 0.739, the sensitivity was 85.7%, the specificity was 57.7%, and the best threshold was 54.8 ms. Conclusions:When Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced T 1 mapping is used to predict postoperative liver failure in patients with focal liver lesions, the whole-liver histogram analysis is superior to the conventional circular ROI-based statistical method.

Psoriasis is characterized by abnormal proliferation of keratinocytes, as well as infiltration of immune cells into the dermis and epidermis, causing itchy, scaly and erythematous plaques of skin. The understanding of this chronic inflammatory skin disease remains unclear and all available treatments have their limitations currently. Here, we showed that IMMH002, a novel orally active S1P modulator, desensitized peripheral pathogenic lymphocytes to egress signal from secondary lymphoid organs and thymus. Using different psoriasis animal models, we demonstrated that IMMH002 could significantly relieve skin damage as revealed by PASI score and pathological injure evaluation. Mechanistically, IMMH002 regulated CD3 T lymphocytes re-distribution by inducing lymphocytes' homing, thus decreased T lymphocytes allocation in the peripheral blood and skin but increased in the thymus. Our results suggest that the novel S1P agonist, IMMH002, exert extraordinary capacity to rapidly modulate T lymphocytes distribution, representing a promising drug candidate for psoriasis treatment.
