Objective To explore the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on the improve?ment of depressive behavior and the hippocampus brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression in chronic stress-induced depression rats. To further investigate the possible molecular mechanism of rTMS treatment for depres?sion. Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into the blank control group (n=8) and the stress-induced group (n=30). Singly housing and chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) were used to induce the depression model in stress-induced group. Twenty-four model rats were divided into three groups:model group (with no further treatment), rTMS group (receiving 10 Hz rTMS intervention for 3 weeks) and shame group (receiving pseudo TMS treatments for 3 weeks). Weight measurement, sucrose consumption test and open-field test were used to assess the behavior changes. The rat hippocampal CA3 area of BDNF positive staining cell number and expression levels of BDNF mRNA in hippocampus were examined after intervention. Results The weight reduction rate, score of sucrose consump?tion test and the score of open field test were significantly higher in rTMS group than in model group (P<0.05). The num? ber of BDNF staining positive cells in the hippocampal CA3 area was lower in model group and shame group than in the blank control group whereas was higher in the rTMS group than in the model group (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the BDNF mRNA relative expression was significantly increased in the hippocampus of rTMS group (P<0.01). Conclusion rTMS can improve depressive behaviors of CUMS rats probably through the increase in expression of BDNF in the hippocampal neurons and neuronal regeneration.

With the rapid increase of the number of cardiovascular disease patients in China, and the popular trend of cardiovascular disease risk factors is becoming more and more obvious, the control of risk factors for cardiovascular disease has become an important public health problem as well as a great challenge to social and economic development. Recent studies show that resistance training plays a positive impact on the control of risk factors for cardiovascular disease. This article reviewed the related literature in recent years for the resistance training control risk factors of the cardiovascular disease, and stated the precautions and challenges during the process of the implementation of resistance training in order to provide new clues to the research and practice for control the risk factors of cardiovascular disease .

Objective To observe the effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on behavior in response to chronic but unpredictable mild stress and explore potential neuroendocrine mechanisms.Methods Forty adult SD male rats were randomly divided into a control group (n =8) and a model preparation group (n=32).The control group was given normal care while a model of depression was induced in the model preparation group through giving an unpredictable mild stimulus (CUMS).The depressive rats were randomly divided into a model group,an rTMS group and a sham rTMS group (8 cases in each group).The rTMS group and sham rTMS groups accepted the rTMS or sham stimulation for 3 weeks.The changes in behavior in each group were quantified using body weight,sucrose consumption and an open field test before and after stimulation.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (Elisas) were conducted to detect plasma adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and corticosterone (CORT) levels.Reverse-transcription polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCRs) were carried out to allow the detection of mRNA expression in hypothalamus related to levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone releasing hormone (CRH).Results After the modeling there were significant differences between the model preparation group and the control group in terms of weight increase,sucrose consumption and open field test results.After rTMS the rate of weight increase,sucrose consumption and the scores in the open field test of the rTMS group had increased significantly more than in the control group.Elisas showed significantly higher plasma ACTH and CORT levels in the model group as well.The average expression of CRH mRNA in the model group was significantly higher than in either of the other two groups.Conclusions rTMS can relieve depression-like behavior induced by chronic stress,at least in rats.This may be related to a downgrading of the hyperactive functioning of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and advantage of visual laryngoscope in the treatment of patients with sudden cardiac arrest who need spontaneous respiration tracheal intubation.Methods:Totally 60 patients who suffered from cardiac arrest and needed spontaneous respiration tracheal intubation were enrolled from June 2020 to February 2021 in the Affilicated Hospital of Chifeng University. Theywere randomlydivided into two groups-traditional laryngoscope (TL) group and visual laryngoscope (VL) group, with30 patients in each group. Then the success rate of glottis exposure, the operative time, success rate and complication rate of tracheal intubation were compared between the two groups. Subgroup assessment between the junior emergency resident doctor (A group) and the senior emergency resident doctor (B group) was conducted.Results:According to Cormack Lehan grades, the success rate of glottis exposure in VL group was higher than that in TL group ( P>0.05), and the success rate of Grade I in VL group was significant higer than that in TL group: 56.70%(17/30) vs. 30.00%(9/30), P<0.05. The trial times of successful intubation cases and the operative time of successful intubation cases were significantly less than those in TL group (1.30 vs 1.67, P = 0.049) and (56.37 s vs 67.12 s, P<0.05). In the subgroup, the one-time success rate of tracheal intubation in A-TL group was significantly lower than that in B-TL group (4/15 vs. 11/15, P<0.05), while the one-time success rate of tracheal intubation in A-VL group was 60.00%, which is lower than that in B-VL group ( P>0.05). The operative time consumed for successful intubation in A-TL group was significantly longer than that in B-TL group: 78.00 s vs. 55.57 s, P<0.05, while the operative time in A-VL group was a little longer than that in B-VL group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Visual laryngoscope used in spontaneous respiration tracheal intubation can not only increase the success rate of glottis exposure, decrease trial times and shorten operative time of intubation, but also improve the success rate and decrease the complication rate of emergency tracheal intubation.
