Objective To explore the pathogenesis of ischemic preconditioning to warm ischemia reperfusion injury of hepatocytes in rats. Methods Ninety SD rats were randomly divided into three experimental groups:sham operation group (group A), warm hepatic ischemia/reperfusion group(group B and group C). Group C was given ischemic preconditioning treatment. Serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were detected 0 h, 2 h, 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after ischemia reperfusion injury. Levels of TNF-α and IL-1β were tested detected by ELISA. Levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) of hepatocytes were detected at the same time points. Mitochondrial membrane potential was examined to assess ischemia reperfusion injury of hepatocytes in rats using chart of intensity of JC-1 in mitochondria. Results The serum levels of ALT, TNF-α, IL-1β, and MDA were significantly higher in hepatic warm ischemia reperfusion group and ischemic preconditioning group than those in sham operation group (P<0.05). Values of prothrombin activity and cholinesterase were significantly lower in liver warm ischemia reperfusion group and ischemic preconditioning group than those of sham operation group (P<0.05). The SOD level of liver was significantly lower in warm ischemia reperfusion group and ischemic preconditioning group than that in sham operation group. The indexes were better in ischemic preconditioning group than those of warm ischemia reperfusion group (P<0.05). The mitochondrial membrane potential level of liver cells reached the lowest value 0 hours after ischemia and reperfusion, and then increased gradually within 24 hours (P<0.05). And the level of mitochondrial membrane potential of liver cells was significantly higher in ischemic preconditioning group than that in warm ischemia reperfusion group (P<0.05). Conclusion Ischemic preconditioning may play a protective role in warm ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats. Ischemic preconditioning may significantly decrease the levels of ALT, AST, TNF-α, IL-1βand MDA, and increase the SOD activity in hepatocytes. Thedamage of mitochondrial membrane potential is decreased after ischemic preconditioning, which might be the pathogenesis of ischemic preconditioning to warm ischemia reperfusion injury of hepatocytes in rats.

Objective To investigate the role of hypoxia inducible factor(HIF)-prolyl hydroxylase 1 (HPHl)and factor inhibiting HIF-1(FIH-1)in placentas in the pathogenesis and development of severe pre-eclampsia.Methods RT-PCR and western blot analyses were used to detect the HPH1 and FIH-1expression levels in placentas of 34 patients with severe pre-eclampsia and 24 cases of term pregnancy (normal pregnancy group)and their correlations with symptoms were analyzed.Results (1)The HPHI mRNA and protein expression levels in placentas of severe pre-eclampsia group were 0.40±0.04 and 59.5±3.4 separately,significantly lower than those of normal pregnancy group,0.84±0.12 and 71.6±1.7(P<0.01).The FIH-1 mRNA and protein expression levels in placentas of severe pre-eclampsia group wereQ 31 ±0.05 and 45.6±2.4 separately,significantly lower than those of normal pregnancy group,0.43±0.04 and 54.9±2.1(P<0.01).(2)The mRNA and protein expression levels of HPH1 and FIH-1 in severe pre-eclampsia group were all negatively correlated with mean arterial pressure(MAP)[the Spearman correlation coefficient was-0.854(P<0.01)],urinary protein per 24 hours[the Spearman correlation coefficient was-0.936(P<0.01)1 and the occurrence of fundus oculi artery spasm[the Spearman correlation coefficient was-0.854(P<0.01)].(3)rrhe expression of HPHl mRNA in placentas of all the 58 cases WBB 0.58±0.27.higher than the expression of FIH-1 mRNA,which was 0.39±0.10.There was a positive correlation between them.The pearson correlation coefficient was 0.686(P<0.01).The expression of HPH1 protein in placentas of all the 58 cases was 64.5±6.7,higher than the expression of FIH-1,which was 49.4±5.2.There was a positive correlation between them.The Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.947(P<0.01).Conclusion The expression imbalance of HPH1 and FIH-1in palcenta may play an important role in the pathogenesis and development of severe pre-eclampsia through inhibiting HIF-1a.

Evolutionary psychology holds such an opinion that negative situation may threaten survival, trigger avoidance motive and have poor effects on the human-body function and the psychological quality. Both disgusted and sad situations can induce negative emotions. However, differences between the two situations on attention capture and emotion cognition during the emotion induction are still not well known. Typical disgusted and sad situation images were used in the present study to induce two negative emotions, and 15 young students (7 males and 8 females, aged 27 ± 3) were recruited in the experiments. Electroencephalogram of 32 leads was recorded when the subjects were viewing situation images, and event-related potentials (ERP) of all leads were obtained for future analysis. Paired sample t tests were carried out on two ERP signals separately induced by disgusted and sad situation images to get time quantum with significant statistical differences between the two ERP signals. Root-mean-square deviations of two ERP signals during each time quantum were calculated and the brain topographic map based on root-mean-square deviations was drawn to display differences of two ERP signals in spatial. Results showed that differences of ERP signals induced by disgusted and sad situation images were mainly manifested in T1 (120-450 ms) early and T2 (800-1,000 ms) later. During the period of T1, the occipital lobe reflecting attention capture was activated by both disgusted and sad situation images, but the prefrontal cortex reflecting emotion sense was activated only by disgusted situation images. During the period of T2, the prefrontal cortex was activated by both disgusted and sad situation images. However, the parietal lobe was activated only by disgusted situation images, which showed stronger emotional perception. The research results would have enlightenment to deepen understanding of negative emotion and to exploredeep cognitive neuroscience mechanisms of negative emotion induction.

Objective:To analyze risk factors for the rupture of basilar tip aneurysms (BTA) using morphological parameters assessed on CTA.Methods:The clinical data and CTA imaging characteristics of 62 patients with BTA from March 2016 to November 2020 in Huanhu Hospital of Tianjin were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into un-rupture ( n=44) and rupture ( n=18) groups according to whether the BTA ruptured. The morphological parameters of aneurysms were measured and recorded. The number, shape and orientation of aneurysms were analyzed by χ 2 test between the two groups. The length (H max), height (H p), neck width (N D), aspect ratio (AR), size ratio (SR), angle of aneurysms (AA), flow angle (FA), basilar vessel angle (BVA), the angle between the proximal long axis of bilateral posterior cerebral artery P1 segment (P1-P1 angle), the angle between the proximal long axis of bilateral superior cerebellar arteries and bifurcation angle (the sum of the angle between the basilar artery and the bilateral posterior cerebral arteries) were analyzed by independent-sample t test between the two groups. On the basis of univariate analysis, logistic regression was used to identify the independent risk factors for BTA rupture. ROC curve analysis was further performed. Results:BTA with irregular shape was more likely to break (χ 2=5.412, P<0.05). The H max[(4.18±2.11)mm], N D [(3.06±1.75)mm], P1-P1 angle (148°±18°) in the rupture group were smaller than those in the un-rupture group [(6.38±2.21)mm, (5.20±1.59)mm, 178°±25°], with statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). While AR (1.19±0.13), BVA (82°±11°), and bifurcation angle (212°±18°) in the rupture group were larger than those in the un-rupture group (1.05±0.18, 70°±10°, 181°±27°), with statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). The logistic regression analysis showed that the shape of aneurysms (β=4.878, OR=11.418, P=0.019), BVA (β=0.165, OR=1.177, P=0.043), and P1-P1 angle (β=-0.223, OR=1.080, P=0.029) were independent risk factors for BTA rupture. The ROC curve analysis showed that the cut-off value of BVA and P1-P1 angle to predict the BTA rupture were 76.7° and 158.5°, and area under curve (AUC) were 0.79 and 0.86, respectively. The AUC of combined BVA with P1-P1 angle was 0.89. Conclusion:The shape of aneurysms, BVA and P1-P1 angle are independent risk factors for BTA rupture. BTA are prone to rupture when the shape of aneurysm is irregular, BVA>76.7 ° and P1-P1 angle<158.5 °.
