Aim To investigate how Farnesoid X re-ceptor (FXR),a nuclear hormone receptor,acts on neurological behaviors such as emotion,social behav-ior,memory and so on.Methods FXR’s function in central nervous system was evaluated by conducting a battery of behavioral tests including elevated plus maze test (EPMT),forced-swimming test (FST),social in-teraction test (SIT ), and passive avoidance test (PAT),and the contents of neurotransmitters were de-termined by the LC-MS /MS method in FXR knockout (KO)female mice and their wild-type controls.Re-sults FXR KO mice showed significantly increased immobility time in FST (P <0.01 ),and it showed in-creased tendency to enter the open arms in EMPT (P<0.01 ).The number of probing the open arms by FXR KO mice was more than that of the controls.Mo-reover,in SIT,FXR KO mice had remarkably in-creased sniffing interactions with the stranger mouse in the same cage (P <0.01 ).But in PAT,the latency for FXR KO mice to enter the dark chamber on the test day and the number of FXR KO mice to enter the dark chamber didn’t differ from those wild-type mice.In hippocampus,the contents of GABA,Glu,and NE were decreased prominently in FXR KO mice (P <0.05,P <0.05 and P <0.01 ,respectively)as well as the ratio of GABA to Glu (P <0.05).But in pre-frontal cortex,none of the neurotransmitters examined showed any difference between FXR KO mice and their controls.Conclusion FXR may be involved in main-tenance of the homeostasis of neural transmission in the central nervous system,thereby influences the emotion-al and social behavior in animals.

Objective To investigate the effect of laparoscopic salpingotomy with suturing on prognosis of patients.Methods One hundred and thirty two cases patients of laparoscopic salpingotomy and embryo extraction in our hospital from October 2015 to Febrary 2017 were were divided into observation group (68 cases) with suturing and control group (64 cases) without suturing according to the operation procedure.The patency of fallopian tube was observed at 3 months after operation and the intrauterine gestation rate and recurrent ectopic pregnancy rate were observed 1 years after operation in two groups.Results The fallopian tube patency in the observation group and the control group was 58 cases (85.3％) and 39 cases (60.9％) respectively at 3 months after operation.7 cases (10.3％) and 12 cases(18.8％) of the fallopian tube were not smooth in the observation group and the control group respectively at 3 months after operation.The fallopian tube obstruction in the observation group and the control group was 3 cases (4.4％) and 13 cases (20.3％) respectively at 3 months after operation.The patency rate of fallopian tube in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (Z =6.215,P ＜ 0.05).The intrauterine gestation rate (69.1％ (47/68)) in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (37.5％(24/64)) 1 years after operation and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (x2 =5.41,P ＜0.05).The rate of recurrent ectopic pregnancy in the observation group (10.3％(7/68)) was significantly lower than that in the control group (26.6％(17/64)) and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (x2 =4.826,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The laparoscopic salpingotomy with suturing can improve the patency rate of the fallopian tube and the rate of intrauterine gestation and reduce the rate of recurrent ectopic pregnancy in the patients after the operation.

Objective: To evaluate the current status of the primary and secondary schools’ teaching environment in China and associated factors,and to provide the support for making differentiated interventional stategies. Methods: Data regarding to information of the primary and secondary schools was obtained by random inspection from the National Health and Family Planning Commission in 2018. Chi-square test was used to compare differences of qualified rates between groups. Spearman correlation analyses was applied to examine the correlations among population density, per capita GDP and qualified rates. Results: Among the total of 37 531 schools, the overall qualified rate of teaching environmental sanitation of primary and secondary schools in 2018 was 59.1%. The qualifying rate in urban areas (60.3%) was higher than that of rural areas (59.4%) and towns (56.7%). Primary schools (59.8%) had higher qualifying rates than junior high schools (58.2%) and senior high schools (51.8%). In terms of each evaluation item, the qualifying rates of school furniture equipment including desks and chairs were the lowest, while the qualifying rates of dormitory ventilation ranked highest. Large variations among provinces were observed for the qualifying rates for school furniture equipment, as well as blackboard illumination. Those provinces with higher per capita GDP and higher population density had higher the qualifying rates for school furniture equipment. Conclusion The overall qualifying rate of Chinese primary and secondary schools’ teaching environment is low. Among all the evaluation measures, qualifying rates of dormitory ventilation are relatively good, while school furniture equipment needs to be improved. Notably, strengthened and targeted management should be applied to improve schools’ teaching environment in new era.

Objective:To compare the effects of treatment with Hybrid-Hyrax-Facemask(FM)versus miniscrews in the anterior pal-ate combined with Hybrid-Hyrax-Facemask(MSI/FM)for patients with early Class Ⅲ malocclusion and maxillary deficiency.Methods:18 patients aged with early Class Ⅲ malocclusion and maxillary deficiency were randomly divided into 2 groups(n=9)and treated with FM and MSI/FM respectively.Alternating rapid maxillary expansion and constriction(Alt-RAMEC)protocol combined with a maxillary protraction force of 3.92 N was applied on each side of all patients from elastics connected to the facemask in a down-ward and forward direction of 30° to the occlusal plane.Iortho cephalometric software was used to analyze the data of lateral cephalo-grams of the patients before(T0)and after(T1)treatment.Results:Improvement was verified in the facial profile and occlusion of all patients.In MSI/FM group the average treatment time was shorter.There were significant differences(P＜0.05)between T0 and T1 in the following measurements in FM group:SNA,ANB,Co-A,Co-Gn,Wits,S-Go,Na-Me,MP,U1-SN,UADH,LADH,Overjet,UL-EP increased,U1-L1 decreased.There were significant differences(P＜0.05)between T0 and T1 in the following measurements in the MSI/FM group:SNA,ANB,Co-A,Wits,Na-Me,MP,Y-axis,U1-SN,Overjet,UL-EP increased,SNB,Co-Gn-Co-A,S-Go/N-Me,U1-L1,L1-MP decreased.Conclusion:Both FM and MSI/FM combined with Alt-RAMEC protocol and a maxillary protraction force are effective in the treatment for Class Ⅲ patients with maxillary deficiency.MSI/FM may produce more significant bone effect and re-duce dental compensation,promote more forward growth of midface and more improvement in the growth direction of mandible and re-duce compensatory lip inclination of anterior teeth in shorter treatment time.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) among children in Hebei from 2019 to 2023.Methods:A total of 46 576 lower respiratory tract specimens were collected from hospitalized children in the Children′s Hospital of Hebei Province from 2019 to 2023. Multiple RT-PCR and capillary electrophoresis were used to detect 13 common respiratory pathogens in the specimens, and the results were statistically analyzed.Results:The overall positive rate of RSV was 18.76%(8 739/46 576). The overall positive rates of RSV in male and female children were 18.84%(5 174/27 462) and 18.65%(3 565/19 114), respectively, showing no statistically significant difference between genders (χ 2=0.916, P=0.339). A linear relationship was found between the positive rate of RSV and age ( P<0.01). There was a significant difference in the positive rates of RSV in different years (χ 2=723.71, P<0.01). The positive rate of RSV peaked in the period from December to February from 2019 to 2021. In 2019 and 2020, the positive rates of RSV were very low from May to October, while the positive rate of RSV was above 10% throughout the whole year of 2021 and small off-season epidemics occurred in May and August. The positive rate of RSV was low in 2022, and no significant seasonal change was observed. The rate of RSV infections peaked from April to June in 2023. There were significant differences in the rates of RSV infections before, during and after the COVID-19 epidemic in each age group ( P<0.01). The rate of mixed infections was 29.20%(2 522/8 739), and the most common other respiratory pathogen was human rhinovirus (52.29%, 1 342/2 552 ). Conclusions:RSV is a common pathogen causing respiratory tract infections in children in Hebei, especially in children under 3 years old. After the COVID-19 epidemic, there are off-season RSV epidemics. Given the variations in the epidemiological features of RSV, it is necessary to carry out continuous monitoring of RSV to provide scientific data for the prevention and control of related diseases.
