Subcortical ischemic vascular disease (SIVD) is considered to be the most important and common cause of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI). If patients with subcortical ischemic vascular cognitive impairment (SIVCI) and subcortical vascular cognitive impairment (sVCI) can be found early, it is possible that vascular dementia (VaD) can be identified before occurrence and even reverse the process. Recent studies have shown that resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) may provide the objective basis for the diagnosis of SIVCI. This article reviews the application of rsfMRI in the diagnosis of SIVCI.

Objective:To investigate the regulation effect of biological intensity electric field (EF) on the motility and CD9 expression of human epidermal cell line HaCaT and mouse epidermal cells.Methods:The experimental research method was used. Human epidermal cell line HaCaT cells in logarithmic growth phase and primary mouse epidermal cells isolated from 16 BALB/c mice aged 1-3 days were used for the experiment. HaCaT cells were divided into EF group treated with EF in the intensity of 200 mV/mm and sham EF group treated with simulated operation. The cell migration (displacement velocity, trajectory velocity, and direction, with 46 samples in EF group and 34 samples in sham EF group) and arrangement were observed in the living cell workstation, and the distribution and expression of CD9 protein were detected by immunofluorescence method. Both HaCaT cells and mouse epidermal cells were divided into sham EF group (simulated operation) and 50 mV/mm group, 100 mV/mm group, 200 mV/mm group and 400 mV/mm group treated with EF in the corresponding intensity respectively. Both HaCaT cells and mouse epidermal cells were divided into blank control group without any treatment and 1 h group, 3 h group and 6 h group treated with EF in the intensity of 200 mV/mm for corresponding time respectively. The expression of CD9 protein was detected by Western blotting (n=3). Data were statistically analyzed with Mann-Whitney U test, one-way analysis of variance, t test and least significant difference test. Results:Within 3 hours of treatment, HaCaT cells in EF group tended to move towards the negative electrode obviously, while HaCaT cells in sham EF group moved randomly around the origin; compared with those of sham EF group, the directivity of HaCaT cells in EF group was significantly enhanced, and the displacement velocity and trajectory velocity were significantly increased (Z=-3.975, -6.052, -6.299, P<0.01). After 3 hours of treatment, the long axis of HaCaT cells in EF group was perpendicular to the direction of EF, while HaCaT cells in sham EF group arranged randomly. After 3 hours of treatment, the expression of CD9 protein in HaCaT cells in EF group was significantly down-regulated compared with sham EF group (t=4.527, P<0.01), although both expressed on cytomembrane. After 3 hours of treatment, the expression of CD9 protein in HaCaT cells and mouse epidermal cells in sham EF group, 50 mV/mm group, 100 mV/mm group, 200 mV/mm group and 400 mV/mm group were 0.332±0.021, 0.283±0.032, 0.254±0.020, 0.231±0.041, 0.212±0.031 and 0.565±0.021, 0.453±0.022, 0.389±0.020, 0.338±0.021, 0.233±0.011, respectively. For both types of cells, compared with that of sham EF group, the expression of CD9 protein in cells was significantly decreased in the four groups of EF treatment (P<0.01); compared with that of 50 mV/mm group, the expression of CD9 protein in cells was significantly decreased in the other three groups of EF treatment (P<0.01); compared with that of 100 mV/mm group, the expression of CD9 protein in cells was significantly decreased in 200 mV/mm group and 400 mV/mm group (P<0.01); compared with that of 200 mV/mm group, the expression of CD9 protein in cells was significantly decreased in 400 mV/mm group (P<0.01). The expression levels of CD9 protein in HaCaT cells and mouse epidermal cells in blank control group, 1 h group, 3 h group and 6 h group were 0.962±0.031, 0.784±0.020, 0.531±0.021, 0.409±0.011 and 0.963±0.031, 0.872±0.031, 0.778±0.040, 0.591±0.041, respectively. For both types of cells, compared with that of blank control group, the expression of CD9 protein in cells was significantly decreased in 1 h group, 3 h group, and 6 h group (P<0.01); compared with that of 1 h group, the expression of CD9 protein in cells was significantly decreased in 3 h group and 6 h group (P<0.05 or P<0.01); compared with that of 3 h group, the expression of CD9 protein in cells was significantly decreased in 6 h group (P<0.01).Conclusions:The biological intensity EF can induce the directional migration and arrangement of HaCaT cells and down regulate the expression of CD9 in HaCaT cells and mouse epidermal cells in a time-dependent and intensity-dependent manner.

Diverse types of GABAergic interneurons tend to specialize in their inhibitory control of various aspects of cortical circuit operations. Among the most distinctive interneuron types, chandelier cells (i.e., axo-axonic cells) are a bona fide cell type that specifically innervates pyramidal cells at the axon initial segment, the site of action potential initiation. Chandelier cells have been speculated to exert ultimate inhibitory control over pyramidal cell spiking. Thus, chandelier cells appear to share multiple similarities with basket cells, not only in firing pattern (fast spiking) and molecular components, but also in potentially perisomatic inhibitory control. Unlike basket cells, however, synaptic recruitment of chandelier cells is little known yet. Here, we examined the mediodorsal thalamocortical input to both chandelier cells and basket cells in medial prefrontal cortex, through combining mouse genetic, optogenetic and electrophysiological approaches. We demonstrated that this thalamocortical input produced initially weak, but facilitated synaptic responses at chandelier cells, which enabled chandelier cells to spike persistently. In contrast, this thalamocortical input evoked initially strong, but rapidly depressed synaptic responses at basket cells, and basket cells only fired at the initiation of input. Overall, the distinct synaptic recruitment dynamics further underscores the differences between chandelier cells and basket cells, suggesting that these two types of fast spiking interneurons play different roles in cortical circuit processing and physiological operation.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the association of maternal body composition and dietary intake with the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).

METHODSA total 154 GDM subjects and 981 controls were enrolled in a prospective cohort study in 11 hospitals from May 20, 2012 to December 31, 2013. Bioelectrical impedance analysis and dietary surveys were used to determine body composition and to evaluate the intake of nutrients in subjects at 21-24 weeks' gestation (WG). Logistic regression analysis was applied to explore the relationships of maternal body composition and dietary intake with the risk of GDM morbidity.

RESULTSAge, pre-pregnant body weight (BW), and body mass index (BMI) were associated with increased risk of GDM. Fat mass (FM), fat mass percentage (FMP), extracellular water (ECW), BMI, BW, energy, protein, fat, and carbohydrates at 21-24 WG were associated with an increased risk of GDM. In contrast, fat free mass (FFM), muscular mass (MM), and intracellular water (ICW) were associated with a decreased risk of GDM.

CONCLUSIONMaternal body composition and dietary intake during the second trimester of pregnancy were associated with the risk of GDM morbidity.
