Objective To investigate the effect ofYindanxinnaotong (YDXNT) capsule on learning and memory abilities, super oxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content in the hippocampus of rat models of vascular dementia (VD). Methods Animals were randomly divided into sham-operated group,VD vehicle group (Group VD) and YDXNT treatment group (Group VD+YDXNT); the 4-vessel occlusion was employed to establish the VD rat models in the Group VD and Group VD+YDXNT,while rats in the sham-operated group were not performed occlusion of the bilateral common carotid artery.Rats of the Group VD+YDXNT were given 1 mL liquid (9 granules of YDXNT into 360 mL normal saline) through intragastric administration 3 times daily for a consecutive 4 weeks; and rats of the other 2 groups were given the same volume of saline.The changes of learning and memory abilities were observed by Morris water maze test; the activity of SOD and the content of MDA in the hippocampus were measured. Results As compared with those in rats of the Group VD, the learning and memory abilities in rats of the Group VD+YDXNT were significantly improved (P<0.05):time in finding the platform was obviously decreased and swimming distance in finding the platform was obviously shortened in rats of Group VD+YDXNT.As compared with those in rats of the Group VD,the activity of SOD in the hippocampus was significantly increased and the content of MDA was obviously decreased in rats of the Group VD+YDXNT (P<0.05). Conclusion YDXNT could increase oxygen radical metabolism to improve the learning and memory abilities of rats with VD.

AIMTo investigate the possible involvement of glutamate(Glu) in the paraventricular nucleus (PVN) in the central regulation of baroreflex.
METHODSThe baroreflex was induced by intravenous injection of phenylephrine in conscious rats, and the extracellular concentration of Glu in the PVN region was measured by microdialysis and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) techniques. To determine whether the observed Glu release was involved in the baroreflex, NMDA and non-NMDA receptor antagonists, MK-801 and CNQX, were perfused in the PVN region during baroreflex.
RESULTSDuring baroreflex, the Glu concentration in the PVN region immediately increased to 384.82% +/- 91.77% of basal level (P < 0.01). (2) During baroreflex, direct perfusion of MK-801 and CNQX in the PVN were attenuated the increase of blood pressure and enhanced the decrease of HR (P < 0.01),resulting a significant increase in baroreflex sensitivity (P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONGlutamate in PVN is involved in central regulation of baroreflex, which may inhibit baroreflex via ionothopic glutamate receptors.

Abstract: Objective To analyze the influencing factors of mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus after combined immunological blockade, and to evaluate the effect of mother-to-child blockade, and to provide a basis for health policies and health interventions for preventing mother-to-child blockade of hepatitis B virus. Methods A total of 11 363 pairs of HBsAg positive pregnant women and their infants aged 7-12 months in Hainan Province from 2015 to 2020 were included in the study. The general situation, the situation of health care and delivery in this pregnancy and perinatal period, the detection of hepatitis B markers, the situation of antiviral therapy, the general situation of mother and infant during delivery and the implementation of blockade measures for mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B were collected and analyzed. Results Among the 11 363 pairs of HBsAg positive pregnant women and their infants delivered in hospitals in Hainan province from 2015 to 2020, the positive rate of HBsAg in children at 7-12 months after birth was 1.47 %, and the difference in HBsAg positive rate of infants born in different years was not statistically significant (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the positive rate of HBsAg among children born to pregnant women with different nationalities, educational levels, occupations, delivery modes, delivery places, obstetric operations and perineal laceration, abnormal perinatal period, children with different genders and premature delivery and perinatal (all P<0.05). There was significant difference in HBsAg positive rate among infants born to pregnant women of different ages, the positive rate of HBsAg of infants born to young pregnant women was higher than that of older pregnant women (P<0.05). The rate of antiviral therapy was low in HBeAg positive pregnant women, and the positive rate of HBsAg in their infants was 2.54%, which was higher than 0.83% in HBeAg negative pregnant women (P<0.05). Conclusions Combined immunological blockade with hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B immunoglobulin can effectively prevent the mother-to-child transmission of HBV. HBsAg-positive women can give birth at the right age, and HBeAg-positive pregnant women can be treated with antiviral therapy to block mother-to-child transmission, providing the important basis for the formulation of hepatitis B prevention and control strategies and measures.
