It is proposed that following peripheral nerve injury abnormal sprouting of Aβ fiber primary afferent neurons in the spinal cord contributes to the allodynia that often occurs with such injury. The present investigation is to determine whether this sprouting is reversal after compression of peripheral nerve was relieved. In a rat model of neuropathic pain made by rat sciatic nerve compression,chorela toxin B subunit conjugated horseradish peroxidase (CB-HRP) was used to trace the termination of Afiber primary afferents and sections were reacted for using tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) as the chromagen. We demonstrated that the compression to the sciatic nerve also results in hyperalgesia and novel transganglionic CB-HRP staining in laminae Ⅱ, and this sprouting can not be reversed by decompression. This structural reorganization in central nervous system and its irreversible character may contribute to the development and maintenance of neuropathic pain.

Objective To explore the effects of swallow-feeding management in patients with dysphagia after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods By convenient sampling, 53 TBI patients from the Forth Department of Neurological Rehabilitation, Shanghai Yangzhi Rehabilitation Hospital (Shanghai Sunshine Rehabilitation Center) from January 2016 to December received a conventional rehabilitation program as the control group. 52 TBI patients from January 2017 to December were recruited into the observation group, while they received the swallow-feeding training and rehabilitation nursing intervention in comparison with the conventional rehabilitation program received in the above control group. The therapeutic effects were evaluated in the two groups through comparing swallowing function pre and post the 30-days interventions, respectively. Results Before intervention the swallowing function of the observation group was graded as grade I (0 example), grade Ⅱ (16 examples), grade Ⅲ (14 examples), grade Ⅳ (14 examples) and grade Ⅴ (8 examples) respectively, while the swallowing function of the control group was graded as gradeⅠ(0 example), gradeⅡ(11 examples), grade Ⅲ(13 examples), gradeⅣ (18 examples) and grade Ⅴ (11 examples) respectively before intervention. The difference in the degrees of the swallowing function had no statistical significance between the control group and the observation group before interventions (Z=-1.268, P=0.205). After intervention the swallowing function of the observation group was graded as grade Ⅰ (20 example), grade Ⅱ (19 examples), grade Ⅲ (10 examples), grade Ⅳ (2 examples) and grade Ⅴ (8 examples) respectively. Meanwhile the swallowing function of the control group was graded as grade Ⅰ (8 example), grade Ⅱ (19 examples), grade Ⅲ (13 examples), grade Ⅳ(10 examples) and grade Ⅴ(3 examples) respectively after intervention. Hence, The difference in the degrees of the swallowing function had statistical significance between the observation group (Z=-6.222, P<0.01) and control group (Z=-5.892, P<0.01) pre and post interventions. Moreover, the improvement of swallowing function in the observation group was larger than that of the control group and the difference in the degree of the swallowing function have statistics significance between the two groups (Z=-3.265, P<0.01). The food intake of the two groups were observed for 30 days, and the results revealed that there were 1 502 cases and 808 cases in respiratory aspiration in the control group and observation group respectively. It can be seen that the incident rate of respiratory aspiration was significantly lower in the observation group than that of the control group (χ2=52.567, P=0.047). Conclusion The Swallow-feeding management can improve the swallowing function, effectively reduce the incidence of respiratory aspiration and also enhance the quality of life in TBI patients.

Aristolochic acid (AA), extracted from Aristolochiaceae plants, plays an essential role in traditional herbal medicines and is used for different diseases. However, AA has been found to be nephrotoxic and is known to cause aristolochic acid nephropathy (AAN).AA-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is a syndrome in AAN with a high morbidity that manifests mitochondrial damage as a key part of its pathological progression. Melatonin primarily serves as a mitochondria-targeted antioxidant. However, its mitochondrial protective role in AA-induced AKI is barely reported. In this study, mice were administrated 2.5 mg/kg AA to induce AKI. Melatonin reduced the increase in Upro and Scr and attenuated the necrosis and atrophy of renal proximal tubules in mice exposed to AA. Melatonin suppressed ROS generation, MDA levels and iNOS expression and increased SOD activities in vivo and in vitro. Intriguingly, the in vivo study revealed that melatonin decreased mitochondrial fragmentation in renal proximal tubular cells and increased ATP levels in kidney tissues in response to AA. In vitro, melatonin restored the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) in NRK-52E and HK-2 cells and led to an elevation in ATP levels. Confocal immunofluorescence data showed that puncta containing Mito-tracker and GFP-LC3A/B were reduced, thereby impeding the mitophagy of tubular epithelial cells. Furthermore, melatonin decreased LC3A/B-II expression and increased p62 expression. The apoptosis of tubular epithelial cells induced by AA was decreased. Therefore, our findings revealed that melatonin could prevent AA-induced AKI by attenuating mitochondrial damage, which may provide a potential therapeutic method for renal AA toxicity.

Objective:
Using data of health information system (HIS) of medical institutions to study the incidence and hospitalization of herpes zoster in three districts of Beijing.
Methods:
According to the different level of economic development and geographical features in Beijing, 3 districts of Xicheng, Changping and Miyun were chosen and all 110 medical institutions of the first level and above in the 3 districts are included in the survey. All the outpatient and inpatient herpes zoster cases in 2015 were retrospectively reviewed by HIS system. After distinguishing the reduplicated cases, Using the first outpatient case as a molecule and the resident population as denominator to estimate the annual incidence rate, as well as the annual hospitalization rate was estimated based on primary diagnostic hospitalized cases as molecule and the resident population as denominator.
Results:
A total of 32 313 primary visit outpatient cases were investigated, of which 18 360 cases (56.8%) were women and 20 923 cases (64.8%) were ≥50 years old. The overall estimated incidence of the 3 districts was 8.8‰ with an increase trends with age and reached to the highest in ≥80 years old (30.5/1 000). The incidence of Xicheng, Changping and Miyun districts are respectively 16.2‰, 4.0‰ and 5.7‰. A total of 701 primary visit inpatient cases were identified, of which 366 cases (52.2%) were women and 651 cases (92.9%) were ≥50 years old. The estimated annual hospitalization rate was 19.4/100 000, with the primary and secondary diagnostic hospitalization rate are respectively 5.9/100 000 (212 cases) and 13.5/100 000 (489 cases). The disease types of secondary diagnostic inpatient herpes zoster cases were as follows: cardiovascular disease (19.0%, 93 cases), stroke (14.5%, 71 cases), pneumonia/chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (14.1%, 69 cases), tumor (12.5%, 61 cases) and diabetes (5.7%, 28 cases).
Conclusion
Most of the herpes zoster cases in Beijing are over 50 years old, and the incidence of female is slightly higher than male. This disease should become a public health issue of great concern.
