Objective To explore the relationships between cognitive emotion regulation and behavioral inhibition system(BIS)/behavioral activation system (BAS) of adolescents.Methods Seven hundreds forty-two adolescents were tested by Behavioral Inhibition/Activation System Scale(BIS/BAS Scale) and Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire Chinese version (CERQ-C).Results (1) Maladaptive emotion regulation,such as selfblame,rumination,catastrophizing and blame others were positively corrected with BIS (r =0.13 ~ 0.38,P <0.01).But adaptive ER had no significantly correlations with BIS (r =-0.05,P > 0.05).Maladaptive emotion regulation was positively correlated with BAS (r =0.24,P < 0.01),and adaptive emotion regulation was negatively correlated with BAS(r =-0.028,P< 0.01).(2)Except acceptance,BIS/BAS had significant effect on the other eight cognitive emotion regulation(P < 0.01).Conclusion BIS/BAS are closely related with cognitive emotion regulation,and have important influences on selection of adolescents'cognitive emotion regulation.

ObjectiveTo observe the protective effect of tetrahydroxystilbene glucoside (TSG) on rats' hippocampal neuronal damage induced by glutamate (Glu) in the culture.MethodsHippocampus was isolated from newborn SD rats and dispersedly cultured in the medium for 9 days. Neurons were incubated with TSG (5—100μmol/L) for 24h, the cells were washed twice with Lock's solution without Mg2+,then Glu 500 μmol/L was added. Thirty min later, the reaction was terminated by washing the monolayer cells twice with the Lock's solution and then cultures were kept at 37℃ for 24h. Cell viability was measured by MTT method and cell membrane damage was determined by LDH leakage; with Fluo-3/AM as an intracellular calcium indicator and added into the bathing medium, fluorescent intensity of intracellular free calcium were observed through laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM).ResultsAfter the treatment with 5—100μmol/L TSG for 24h, the decrease of cell viability and the increase of LDH leakage caused by Glu was obviously resisted dose dependently. TSG inhibited increase of Ca2+ in cytoplasm, compared with model group.ConclusionTSG can significantly promote the cell viability and reduce the cell membrane damage in Glu treating hippocampal neurons. The neuroprotective activities of TGS is mediated by inhibiting Ca2+ overload in cytoplasm.

Object To investigate the effects of Panax notoginseng saponins (PNS) on myocardial Gs? mRNA expression of seriously scalded rat. Methods A 30% skin full thickness scald model was produced by immersing rat in 95 ℃ water for 10 s. The effects of PNS on myocardial Gs? mRNA level were observed with dot blotting hybridization and in situ hybridization technique; effects on cAMP and adenyl cyclase (AC) activities were determined with radioimmunoassay. Results Myocardial Gs? mRNA, AC activity and cAMP content were reduced significantly 3 h after scalding. PNS (100, 200 mg/kg) could markedly increase the level of myocardial Gs? mRNA expression. The elevated quantity was correlated markedly with PNS dosage (r = 0.95, P

Objective To investigate the changes in the metabolism of neurotransmitters in different regions of the brain induced by propofol in healthy volunteers using the proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) technology.Methods IH-MRS was performed in ten 20-40 year old healthy volunteers. Each volunteer underwent MRS scan twice. The first MRS scan was performed when they were conscious as baseline control value. The second scan was performed during target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol. The target effect-site concentration was set at 3.0 ?g?ml-1. Volume of interest (VOI) included sensory cortex, motor cortex, thalamus, hippocampus and basal ganglia. The metabolites in the spectra included N-acetyl-aspartic acid (NAA), glutamic acid (Glu), GABA, choline compounds (Cho) and creatine (Cr) .Results During TCI of propofol MAP and RR were significantly decreased ( P 0.05) as compared to the baseline value when the volunteers were conscious. During TCI of propofol the NAA content in thalamus and hippocampus, Glu content in thalamus, hippocampus and basal ganglia and Cho content in all the 5 regions of the brain were significantly decreased ( P

Objective: To observe the effects of OFQ on endomorphin-1 in pain modulation. Methods: OFQ and endomorphin-1 were microinjected intracerebroventricularly or intrathecally in rats. The pain thresholds were measured by tail-flick test and acetic-acid induced twitching test, and the changes of antinociceptive effects induced by endomorphin-1 were observed. Results: OFQ antagonizing endomorphin-1 antinociception at the supraspinal level, while enhancing at the spinal level were observed. Conclusion: OFQ has functional effects on endomorphin-1 in pain modulation,both in the brain and the spinal cord. The mechanisms of its effect may be different.

Objective To analyze the clinical pathological characteristics of achalasia patients complicated by esophageal cancer.Methods From January 2005 to May 2013,among 658 patients with achalasia,the clinical data,pathological characteristics of tumor and the treatment of those complicated by esophageal cancer were collected and analyzed.At the same time,receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between the course of achalasia and esophageal cancer.Results Among the 658 patients with achalasia,297(45.1%) cases were male and 361(54.9%) cases were female.A total of 62 cases (9.4%) were lost to follow-up and of 596 cases who completed the follow-up,26 cases (4.4 %) were complicated with esophageal cancer.Among the 26 patients complicated with esophageal cancer,69.2% (18/26) were male;the course from achalasia diagnosed to esophageal cancer was (16.5±8.2) years.The patients with a disease duration more than 10 years accounted for 88.5%(23/26),and 80.8% (21/26) underwent previous balloon dilatation or Heller surgery.The predilection site of esophageal cancer was in the middle esophagus of patients complicated by esophageal cancer (69.2%,18/26),the main type was squamous carcinoma (88.5%,23/26),65.4%(17/26) of the lesions invaded to muscular layer (stage T3 to T4),61.5%(16/26) had the late stage tumor (stage Ⅲ to Ⅳ),and 23.1%(6/26) had distant metastasis.The results of ROC curve analysis showed that when the duration was 10.5 years,the Youden index reached the maximum value (0.71).And 38.5% (10/26) of patients with esophageal cancer could not be treated with esophageal cancer radical surgery,and their average survival time was (11.4±6.6) months.Conclusion The patients with the duration of achalasia over 10.5 years are required for regular endoscopic examination to improve the prognosis.
