OBJECTIVETo observe the effects of inhaled Chuankezhi injection (CKZ) on airway inflammation in a mouse model of asthma and dilation of isolated guinea-pig airway smooth muscle in vitro, which can provide pharmacodynamic evidence for CKZ treating acute attack of asthma.

METHODBALB/c mice were sensitized with ovalbumin (OVA) on Days 1, 15, and then were inhaled with OVA aerosol on Days 22-28. The sensitized mice were administered with inhalation of aerosolized CKZ injection (0.2, 0.4, 0.8 mL x kg(-1), bid), or intraperitoneal injection of CKZ (0.4 mL x kg(-1), bid), dexamethsone (0.5 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)) and saline (control) on Days 22-28. Airway inflammation was evaluated by counting cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and by lung histology. The influences of CKZ on the dilation of tracheal smooth muscle in guinea-pig and the contraction induced by carbamylcholine (CCH)/histamine in vitro were also observed.

RESULTIn vivo, OVA-sensitized mice developed a significant airway inflammatory response that was significant inhibited by inhalation of CKZ (0.8 mL x kg(-1), bid), and intraperitoneal injection of CKZ (0.4 mL x kg(-1), bid) and dexamethasone (0.5 mg x kg(-1) x d(-1)). in vitro, CKZ did not dilate tracheal smooth muscles in guinea-pigs, and did not attenuate the contraction induced by carbamylcholine (CCH)/histamine.

CONCLUSIONCKZ can modulate airway inflammation in asthma, but has no dilation effect on the tracheal smooth muscle in guinea-pig in vitro. These results demonstrate that inhaled CKZ is not a preferred administration.

Objective: To explore the characteristics of pain sensitivity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and to provide reference for clinical comprehensive intervention of ASD. Methods: A case-control study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of pain sensitivity in 142 ASD children and 142 normal children using the items related to pain sensitivity in the Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ATEC). In addition, two recognized ASD model mice (BTBR mice and model mice induced by VPA) were selected as experimental group. The thermal pain threshold and mechanical pain threshold of BTBR mice were measured by electroshock seizure threshold and Von Frey filament test, and the differences of pain characteristics between BTBR mice and control mice were compared, the thermal pain threshold of model mice induced by VPA (VPA rats) was measured by electroshock seizure threshold, and the differences between BTBR mice and control mice (Con) were compared. Results: There was significant difference in pain sensitivity between ASD group and control group (χ 2=0.81，P<0.05), and the sensitivity of ASD children to pain was significantly lower than that of normal control children. The pain sensitivity of BTBR mice and C57BL/6 mice on the 42 nd day after birth was measured. The T-test analysis showed that the time taken for BTBR and C57BL/6 mice to retract their feet on the 42 nd day after birth (3.62±0.38,3.02±0.33)s (t=3.28,P<0.01), and the mechanical pain threshold (9.75±3.58,0.55±0.93)s (t=7.44,P<0.01). The detection of thermal stinging pain in VPA rats and con rats on the 9 th, 11 th, 13 th and 15 th day after birth was detected. The results of t test were as follows:P9(11.34±1.38,9.81±1.64)g, P11(11.37±1.98,9.36±1.11)g, P13(11.53±1.38,9.51±1.01)g and P15(12.05±2.91,8.74±1.60)g (t=-2.79,-2.25,3.95,3.95,P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with normal control children, ASD children show insensitivity to pain which is further supported by two types of animal models for ASD.

Road traffic accidents (RTA) can cause a large number of casualties and property losses. Driving fatigue is one of the important factors leading to RTA. Electrophysiological signals, as a kind of information feedback for the nervous system to regulate body functions, can reflect drivers’ fatigue state. However, there is a lack of systematic reviews on the current research on electrophysiological signals as information input of machine learning methods for driving fatigue recognition. By investigating fatigue-related literature, the current paper summarized the neural regulation mechanism of fatigue, clarified that driving fatigue is caused by both psychological and physiological loads, recognized inducing factors related to driving fatigue, and summed up electrophysiological signals now in use of driving fatigue recognition, as well as their physiological mechanisms and related indicators. Machine learning algorithms are widely used in identifying driving fatigue. Based on existing studies that used electrophysiological signals as information input source and applied various machine learning algorithms to build driving fatigue identification models, this paper compared the effectiveness of various machine learning algorithms, and described the advantages and disadvantages of supervised machine learning. It is pointed out that suitable classification algorithms should be selected according to sample conditions and model eigenvalues when applied to driving fatigue recognition. In addition, a variety of electrophysiological signals as information sources can help improve the accuracy of a fatigue recognition model, but the increase of model input eigenvalues cannot. Finally, the research progress of identification methods based on electrophysiological signals provided new opportunities for identifying driving fatigue.
