【Objective】 To explore the psychological experience of blood donors with blood donation-related vasovagal reaction (DRVR), so as to provide basis for improving the quality of blood donation services. 【Methods】 The real experience of 9 DRVR blood donors was analyzed using the phenomenological research method in qualitative research. 【Results】 The occurrence of DRVR caused distinct psychological conflict among blood donor. Blood donors lacked knowledge about blood donation and expected professional evaluation and continuous support. The occurrence of DRVR was an important reason for blood donor lapsing. 【Conclusion】 By resolving the distinct psychological conflicts of DRVR blood donors, establishing DRVR early warning evaluation and feedback system, as well as strengthening the construction of support system, blood collection and supply institutions can create a good humanistic and social environment for sustainable development of voluntary blood donation.

Objective To investigate the role of miR-132 in oxygen-glucose-deprivation (OGD) induced ischemic injury model using primary cortical neurons.Methods Cultured primary cortical neurons were exposed to oxygen-glucose-deprivation (OGD)for 2 h followed by 24 h reperfusion.The cells were randomly divided into sham operation group (Sham),OGD group,lentivirus control group (LV-control),miR-132 low expression group (LV-anti-miR-132),and miR-132 overexpression group (LV-miR-132).CCK-8,real-time PCR,and Western blot were used to study the effects and mechanisms of miR-132 on primary cortical neurons injured by OGD.Results The expression levels of miR-132 were significantly reduced in the OGD-induced ischemic injury model (P<0.05).The reduced expression of miR-132 aggravated OGD injury and significantly reduced cell viability in OGD-induced primary cortical neuron ischemic injury.On the contrary,the increased expression levels of miR-132 reduced OGD injury and increased cell survival.Western blot results showed that overexpression of miR-132 upregulated the levels of synapsin-1 and PSD95.Conclusion Overexpression of miR-132 can improve OGD-induced ischemic injury and increase the survival of primary cortical neurons by upregulating the synapsin-1 and PSD95.

OBJECTIVES:
To analyze the relationship between the suicide method and the sex, age, education background and cause of suicide to provide reference for the forensic identification of suicide.
METHODS:
After scene investigation, external body examination, autopsy and case investigation, 124 identified suicide cases which happened in recent three years in Wuhua district in Kunming were collected. Analytical methods as chi-square test and descriptive statistics were performed by SPSS 22.0.
RESULTS:
In all the suicide cases, male to female ratio was 1.53∶1. The suicide methods were mainly fatal fall, hanging and drowning. The ratio of local to non-native residents was 1∶1. The suicide rate in the people with primary school or junior middle school education level was highest. The group of >10-50 years tended to choose fatal fall suicide and people over 60 years were more likely to choose hanging. People with different academic background tended to choose fatal fall suicide. The suicide methods as fatal fall and hanging were chosen because of mental and physical diseases and economic problems, while the suicides with emotional problems were more likely to choose fatal fall and poisoning.
CONCLUSIONS
Suicide belongs to a kind of complex cases. For the cases of suspected suicide, complete exploration and overall consideration should be done to determine the nature of cases based on comprehensive analysis of all the influence factors.

OBJECTIVES:
To study the epidemiological and pathological features of sudden death (SD) in Yunnan Province and to provide scientific evidence for prevention and forensic identification of sudden death.
METHODS:
Totally 363 SD cases were collected from the autopsies between 2009 and 2017 in the Forensic Centre of Kunming Medical University. The related factors such as etiology, age, inducing factor, time interval between the onset of disease and death, morbidity season and pathological change were retrospectively analysed.
RESULTS:
The incidence of SD in males was significantly higher than that of females. The peak age was ≥35-55 years. The mortality rate was relatively high within 6 h after the onset of disease. The season order with descending number of deaths was spring, summer, winter and autumn. The top ten causes of SD were coronary heart disease, sudden unexplained death (SUD), cerebral hemorrhage, acute hemorrhagic necrotic pancreatitis, aortic dissection rupture, cardiomyopathy, pneumonia, pulmonary thromboembolism, amniotic fluid embolism and allergy. Exercise, infusion, surgery, medication and minor injury were the most common predisposing factors of sudden coronary death. Consciousness disorder or coma, chest pain or chest tightness, and abdominal pain were the most common premortem symptoms of sudden coronary death.
CONCLUSIONS
The SD is more common in middle-aged males, which is the key population for the prevention of SD. For the forensic identification and prevention of SD, the attention on SUD should be paid.

Objective To explore the correlation between 4 tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (Tag SNP) sites (rs7721799, rs32897, rs7718461, rs10062367) of corticotropin releasing hormone binding protein (CRHBP) and schizophrenia and aggressive behavior in the Yunnan Han population. Methods Case-control correlation analysis was used to establish a complex amplification system. Improved multiplex ligase detection reaction (iMLDR) technology was used to detect the genotypes of 4 SNP sites of CRHBP gene of 163 Han schizophrenic patients (including 81 patients with aggressive behavior, 82 patients without aggressive behavior) and 345 healthy Han individuals, which were analyzed statistically by SPSS 19.0, Haploview 4.2 and PHASE 2.1 software. Results There was no correlation between the 3 SNP sites of CRHBP gene and the onset of schizophrenia except for the rs7718461 site (P>0.05). The relative risk of aggressive behavior of patients carrying GG or GA genotype at rs7718461 site were 4.903 times higher than those carrying AA genotype (P<0.05). Conclusion The CRHBP gene may not be associated with the occurrence of schizophrenia in Yunnan Han population, but AA genotype of rs7718461 may reduce the risk of aggressive behavior in schizophrenia patients.

OBJECTIVE To explore the correlation between SLCO1B3 gene polymorphisms and early postoperative tacrolimus concentrations in renal transplant recipients. METHODS A total of 68 patients who underwent kidney transplantation in the First Hospital of Kunming were selected, tacrolimus plasma concentrations were monitored by chemoluminescence, CYP3A5*3, SLCO1B3 T334G and G699A gene polymorphisms were detected by polymerase chain reaction, and genotyping was performed to analyze the correlation between each genotype and tacrolimus plasma concentrations. RESULTS Different genotypes of CYP3A5*3 had significant effects on postoperative tacrolimus plasma concentration and standardized plasma concentration(P<0.05), and different genotypes of SLCO1B3 T334G and G699A gene loci had no significant effect on postoperative tacrolimus plasma concentration and standardized plasma concentration. CONCLUSION Compared with CYP3A5*3/*3 genotype, CYP3A5*1 allele carriers need to reach the same tacrolimus concentration to increase tacrolimus dose. SLCO1B3 T334G and G699A gene polymorphisms has no effect on tacrolimus plasma concentration in the early stage after renal transplantation.
8.Mechanism and treatment of portal-systemic circulatory imbalance in hepatorenal syndrome
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2021;37(12):2770-2773
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a serious complication of end-stage liver disease, and its pathogenesis is associated with the systemic hemodynamic changes such as portal hypertension, arterial vasodilation, reduced cardiac output, reduced effective circulating blood volume, and renal artery contraction, as well as portal-systemic circulatory imbalance. For the treatment of HRS at present, vasoactive agents and interventional treatment are used to change systemic hemodynamics and portal-systemic circulatory imbalance, and early intervention can improve the prognosis of patients.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of minocycline on cognitive functions in neonatal rat after hypoxia exposure and the underlying mechanism. A model of hypoxic brain damage (HBD) was developed by exposing postnatal 1 day (P1) rats to systemic hypoxia. The rats were intraperitoneally injected with normal saline (Hy group) or minocycline (Hy + M group) 2 h after hypoxia exposure. Some other P1 rats that were not subjected to systemic hypoxia were used as normal control (NG group). The Y-maze test was used to evaluate learning and memory ability on postnatal day 30. Inflammatory mediators (Iba-1, IL-1β, TNF-α and TGF-β1), glutamate transporters (EAAT1 and EAAT2), total Tau and phosphorylated Tau (phosphorylation sites: Tyr18, Thr205, Thr231, Ser396 and Ser404) protein expressions in the hippocampus were detected by Western blot 7 d after hypoxic exposure. The results showed that hypoxia induced learning and memory impairments of the neonatal rats, and minocycline administration could reverse the effects of hypoxia. The protein expression levels of Iba-1, IL-1β, TNF-α, EAAT2 and Tau phosphorylated at T231 were increased, but the total Tau expression was decreased in the hippocampus of the rats from Hy group 7 d after hypoxia exposure. In the hypoxia-treated rats, minocycline down-regulated Iba-1, IL-1β, TNF-α and EAAT2 protein expressions significantly, but did not affect total Tau and phosphorylated Tau protein expressions. Our results suggest that minocycline can prevent cognitive deficits of rats with hypoxia exposure, and the underlying mechanism may involve the inhibition of neuroinflammation and dysfunctional glutamate transporters but not the regulation of the Tau hyperphosphorylation.
