Objective To observe the effects of velcade on inflammatory reaction and cell apoptosis after ischemia-reperfusion injury, and to explore the neuroprotective mechanism of velcade.Methods The 15 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group, physiological saline control group and velcade-treated group (n= 5, each). The model of temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was applied and reperfused after 2 hours. Immediately after the reperfusion, all rats were performed intraperitoneal injection with velcade 0. 2 mg/kg in velcadetreated group, and with the same volume of physiological saline in control group. After 24 hours, the rats were decapitated in all groups. The apoptosis cells were found by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) and the expressions of nuclear factor-κBp65 (NF-κBp65) and interleukinh-1β (IL-1β) were detected by immunohistochemistry. Results The immunologically positive cells of NF-κBp65, IL-1β and apoptosis cells were occasionally found in shamoperated group [(1.21 ± 0. 16)/400 power, (11.56 ± 0. 99)/400 power and (2. 88 ± 0. 27)/400 power], while a lot of immunologically positive cells of NF-κBp65, IL-1β and apoptosis cells were found in velcade-treated group and control group. The control with compared group, these cells were significantly more in the velcade-treated group [(56.28± 1.95)/400 power vs. (29. 76±2.53)/400 power, (47. 64±2.06)/400 power vs. (29.6±1. 61)/400 power and (51. 05±4. 23)/400 power vs.(33.44±2.06)/400 power, all P<0. 05]. Conclusions The velcade could decrease the expressions of the NF-κBp65 and IL-1β and diminish the neuronal apoptosis. The neuroprotective mechanism of velcade may lie in decreasing apoptosis through inhibiting inflammation.

Objective: To investigate the effect of combined hypoxia and high fat diet (HFD) on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)/nitric oxide (NO) of myocardium in experimental rats with its possible mechanisms.
Methods: A total of 60 male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, n=20 in each group. Control group, the rats were fed by normal diet with normal oxygen condition. Hypoxia group, the rats were fed by normal diet with simulated 5000m altitude oxygen condition. Combined hypoxia and HFD (H+HFD) group, the rats were fed by HFD and simulated 5000m altitude oxygen condition. All animals were treated for 4 weeks and peripheral blood and myocardium specimen were collected. Hemoglobin was examined by automatic blood cell analyzer, plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) was measured by TBA method, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was detected by WST-1 method, mRNA and protein expressions of eNOS were examined by real time PCR and Western blot analysis respectively, the myocardium nitrates and nitrites (NOx) was measured by nitrate reductase method.
Results: Compared with Control group, Hypoxia group and H+HFD group had increased mRNA and protein expressions of eNOS, H+HFD group had lower NOx levels than the other 2 groups P<0.05. Compared with Hypoxia group, H+HFD group showed obviously increased total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol and decreased SOD activity, diseased MDA level P<0.05.
Conclusion: Upon hypoxia alone, H+HFD may further reduce NOx level of myocardium, it implies aggravated chronic hypoxia impairment, which might be related to dyslipidemia and lack of anti-oxidative ability in experimental rats.

Objective To supply a scientific basis for standardizing the normal reference value of forced vital capacity (FVC) of Chinese younger women. Methods We studied the relationship between the normal reference value of 21767 samples of FVC of younger women and eight geographical factors in 157 areas in China. Results It was found that the correlation between geographical factors and the normal reference value of FVC of younger women was quite significant (F=5.884, P=0.000). By adopting the method of mathematical regression analysis, one regression equation was inferred: =3.146+0.00006919X1+0.01315X4-0.006966X6+0.09524X8±0.254. In the above equation, is the normal reference value of younger women' FVC (L); X1 is the altitude (m); X4 is the annual mean air temperature (℃); X6 is the annual mean relative humidity (%); X8 is the annual mean wind speed (m/s); 0.254 is the value of the residual standard deviation. Conclusion If geographical values are obtained in a certain area, the normal reference value of FVC of younger women in this area can be obtained by using the regression equation. Furthermore, according to the geographical factors, China can be divided into eight regions: Northeast China Region, North China Region, Shanxi-Shaanxi-Inner Mongolia Region, middle and lower reaches of the Yangzte River Region, Southeast China Region, Northwest China Region, Southwest China Region, and Qinghai-Tibet Plateau Region.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of whole body vibration training on postural stability in patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) using meta-analysis. MethodsRandomized controlled trials about whole body vibration training on patients with CAI in relation to postural stability were retrieved from PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale, CNKI and WanFang data from inception to November, 2022. Reference lists of included studies were also traced to supplement the relevant literature. Two researchers independently searched the literature, and extracted relevant data. The PEDro scale was used to assess the quality, and the Cochrane Handbook was used to assess the risk of bias. The meta-analysis was conducted using Review Manager 5.3. And Stata 15.0 was used to conduct the Egger's test to assess publication bias. ResultsTwelve randomized controlled trials involving 440 individuals were included. Compared with the other exercises or no exercise, whole body vibration training could improve the center of pressure-area (MD = -0.70, 95% CI -0.97 to -0.43, P < 0.001) and the Star Excursion Balance Test in the direction of anterior (MD = 6.16, 95% CI 3.88 to 8.44, P < 0.001), posteromedial (MD = 6.22, 95% CI 3.68 to 8.76, P < 0.001), posterolateral (MD = 6.68, 95% CI 4.28 to 9.08, P < 0.001), anteromedial (MD = 8.78, 95% CI 6.71 to 10.85, P < 0.001), medial (MD = 4.16, 95% CI 1.46 to 6.86, P = 0.002), posterior (MD = 6.69, 95% CI 3.81 to 9.58, P < 0.001), lateral (MD =12.37, 95% CI 8.09 to 16.65, P < 0.001) and anterolateral (MD = 5.29, 95% CI 1.44 to 9.13, P = 0.007). However, there was no significant difference in the overall stability index (MD = 0.02, 95% CI -0.05 to 0.09, P = 0.643) and hop-test (MD = 6.24, 95% CI -8.80 to 21.28, P = 0.416) between whole body vibration training and other exercises or no exercise. ConclusionWhole body vibration training can improve the range of all directions of the Star Excursion Balance Test in individuals with CAI. However, more studies are needed to determine the improvement of center of pressure-area.

Objective:To understand the current status of knowledge, attitude and practice of exercise rehabilitation nursing of clinical nurses in ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in China.Methods:The convenient sampling method was adopted to conduct an online survey of 9 091 nurses from 31 Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals in 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions by using a self-designed questionnaire on Nurses' Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of Exercise Rehabilitation from May to July 2019. There were 34 items in the questionnaire, which mainly included the basic information of the survey objects, the knowledge and skills of sports rehabilitation nursing that nurses needed to master, the willingness of nurses to provide sports rehabilitation guidance and the current status of clinical implementation. A total of 9 091 questionnaires were distributed in this study, and the effective response rate was 100%.Results:Among the 9 091 nurses, 3 728 nurses (41.0%, 3 728/9 091) and 3 749 nurses (41.2%, 3 749/9 091) respectively indicated that they had not received relevant courses or skills training in school. 8 565 nurses (94.2%, 8 565/9 091) thought it was important to provide sports rehabilitation guidance, but they lacked the corresponding guidance ability, motivation and energy. In practice, 8 493 nurses (93.4%, 8 493/9 091) would provide suggestions and guidance related to sports rehabilitation to patients, mainly based on departmental nursing routine, relevant training, personal experience and literature.Conclusions:Clinical nurses in ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in China have a positive attitude to participate in the exercise rehabilitation guidance of patients, but the level of knowledge and skills is low, and the behavior of rehabilitation guidance needs to be standardized. In the future, it should be further strengthened in terms of professional training, personnel training and related guidelines and standard construction.
