Bipolar disorder is a common, highly disabling psychiatric disorder characterized by early onset, frequent episodes, high suicide risk, and chronic outcomes, and is associated with severe social dysfunction. The pathogenesis of bipolar disorder is still unclear, and current studies mainly focus on circadian rhythm abnormalities, including rhythm gene mutation, polymorphism, abnormal kinase expression, and rhythm abnormalities in neurotransmitter secretion and transport. It has been found that at any stage of bipolar disorder, whether prodrome, episode, or remission, patients exhibit circadian rhythm disruptions, including disrupted sleep-wake cycles, hormonal phase abnormalities, and irregular social rhythms. Based on this mechanism, the time therapy, such as light therapy, dark therapy, sleep deprivation and behavioral intervention, can rapidly improve the circadian rhythm of patients with bipolar disorder, achieve the goal of rapid relief of symptoms, with fewer side effects, low risk of switching to manic. In this paper, circadian rhythm mechanism, clinical manifestations and chronotherapy of bipolar disorder are reviewed to provide a basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

BACKGROUND:Cerebrovascular drag, occlusion and other mechanical stimulations inevitably occur during some craniocerebral operations, which cause acute mechanical cerebrovascular vasospasm. At present, the mechanism underlying the patho-physiology as well as the pathological prognosis of this acute mechanical vasospasm remains unclear.OBJECTIVE: To observe changes in the vascular diameter of the middle cerebral artery, cerebral blood flow (CBF), and ultrastructure of vascular wall and vascular endothelial cells, during the early stage (2 hours) of mechanical cerebral vasospasm in cats.DESIGN: Open experiment.SETTING: Department of Neurology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University; Beijing Institute of Neurosurgery.MATERIALS: Six healthy adult hybrid cats, of either gender, weighing from 2.5 to 3.5 kg, were provided by the China Medical Science Institute of Experimental Animals. Laser Doppler flowmetry (Periflux 5010, Sweden Perimed Company)was used.METHODS: This study was carried out in the Beijing Institute of Neurosurgery between August 2005 and March 2006. For all experimental surgical procedures, the cats were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 200 g/L chloral hydrate, at 2 mL/kg, and then placed in a prone position. A median incision was made in the scalp and a square bone window, 8×10 mm, was opened at 1.5 cm posterior and 1.5 lateral to the anterior fontanel, after which the dura mater was pricked out. The fine detecting head of the Laser Doppler flowmetry was fixed to a region of the cerebral surfacewith no vessels or with only a few vessels. Subsequently, the cats were placed in lateral position. Under the surgical microscope, the right middle cerebral artery was exposed through a suborbital approach. Blunt apparatus was used to stimulate middle the middle cerebral artery repeatedly, at a frequency of 100 time/min within 30 minutes.The diameter of the middle cerebral artery was measured and a perfusion index of cortical brain tissue was monitored, separately, before and then at 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 hours after stimulation. Ultrastructural changes in the vascular wall and the vascular endothelial cells were observed during the early stage (2 hours) of mechanical cerebral vasospasm in cats.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Diameter of the middle cerebral artery and the perfusion index of cortical brain tissue before and then at 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 hours after stimulation, as well as any ultrastructural changes in the vascular wall and endothelial cells 2 hours after stimulation.RESULTS: The results from six cats were were analyzed. ①The diameter of the middle cerebral artery was (0.617±0.129), (0.723±0.082), (0.840±0.084) mm 0, 0.5 and 1.0 hours after stimulation, respectively, which was significantly smaller than that before stimulation [(0.897±0.066) mm,t =4.74, 4.017, 1.299,P ＜ 0.01]. ② The perfusion index of cortical brain tissue was 67.8±18.5, 82.5±17.5, 89.8±24.0, 94.0±22.2 and 98.5±21.0 at 0, 0.5, 1.0,1.5 and 2.0 hours after stimulation, which was significantly lower than that before stimulation (159.2±23.5, t =4.716-7.469, P ＜ 0.01 ). ③ At the early stage of acute mechanical stimulation (2 hours) to middle cerebral artery, endothelial cell chromatin aggregated at the edge of the cells and achromocyte formed, but mitochondrial crista was unclear.CONCLUSION: Mechanical stimulation to the middle cerebral artery in cats can lead to cerebral vasospasm. Apoptosis of endothelial cells appears at the early stage of stimulation (2 hours). These results indicate that, in order to prevent against cerebral vasospasm, cerebrovascular mechanical stimulation should be as minimal as possible and that as few as possible craniocerebral operations should be performed.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of adhesive negative pressure suction apparatus in treatment of wound infection after colorectal surgery.Methods From January 2010 to November 2011,consecutive patients with wound infection after colorectal surgery were randomized to the experimental group (n =24 ) and the control group (n =24).The patients in experimental group were treated with the adhesive negative pressure suction apparatus.The patients in the control group were treated with traditional wound therapy.The results of treatment were evaluated.Results Time from debriding the wound infection to secondary suture was significantly shorter in patients of the experimental group ( P ＜ 0.05 ).The total number of dressing changes was very significantly less in patients of the experimental group ( P ＜ 0.01 ).The total cost of dressing in experimental group was significantly less than the control group (P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusions The application of adhesive negative pressure suction apparatus in treatment of the wound infection after colorectal surgery can shorten the wound processing time,reduce the number of dressing changes and the total cost of dressing,thus has a high clinical value.

Objective To evaluate the clinical results of three dimensional conformal radiotherapy (3DCRT) for esophageal carcinoma. Methods From May 1999 to May 2001, 104 patients with pathologically confirmed esophageal carcinoma were randomly divided into conventional radiotherapy (CT) and three dimensional conformal radiotherapy(3DCRT) groups, with 52 patients in each arm. The patients in CT group received conventional radiotherapy in 2.0?Gy/f, 5 fractions a week to a total dose of 70?Gy in 7 weeks. The patients in 3DCRT group were first treated by the same fractionation in CT group to the dose of 40?Gy, and then treated by 3DCRT in 3.0?Gy/f, 5 fractions a week to the total dose of 70?Gy in 6 weeks. Results The 1-and 3-year local control rates were 80.2% and 60.5% in 3DCRT group and 61.6% and 31.7% in CT group(?2 = 4.87, P

BACKGROUND: Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion has been considered the gold standard for treatment of symptomatic degenerative disc disease within the cervical spine.However,fusion may result in progressive degeneration of the adjacent segments.Artificial disc replacement seems to be promising,segmental motion and stability are preserved while the spinal canal has been enlarged,and the intervertebral disc biological mechanics has been preserved,but not leads to progressive degeneration of the adjacent segments.OBJECTIVE: To observe the functional outcome and kinematics after the Prodisc artificial neck intervertebral disc replacement.METHODS: A total of 55 cases (69 intervertebral discs),29 males and 26 females,aged 48 (31-76) years were selected,including14 with bi-segmental injury.There were 32 cases of cervical spondylotic myelopathy,9 of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy,and 14 of mixed type cervical spondylosis.Prodisc artificial neck intervertebral disc replacement was performed using anterior or oblique incision.Prospective data JOA score and kinematic measures were collected before surgery and at 3,6,12,and 24 months after surgery.Range of motion was determined by independent radiologic assessment of flexion-extension radiographs.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The 55 patients were followed-up,including 41 undergoing single segmental disc replacement and 14 undergoing bi-segmental disc replacement.They were followed up for 22(56-48)months postoperatively.JOA scores displayed improved cervical function by 56%.Range of motion of sagittal and coronal planes were similar to those prior to operation compared with preoperatively(P = 0.45,0.74),and the range of motion and stability were maintained as adjacent segments.Results showed that the artificial disc replacement maintained range of motion of original intervertebral disc,accelerated patient recovery,and slightly affected adjacent intervertebral disc.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum levels of PCT and neutrophil CD64 contents with the effect of hormone therapy and complications in the patients with primary nephrotic syndrome.Methods Sixty-five patients with primary nephrotic syndrome in our hospital from September 2015 to September 2016 were selected as the research subjects,all cases were treated with hormonal therapy,the serum levels of PCT and neutrophil CD64 were detected and their relationship with the curative effect and complications of nephrotic syndrome was analyzed.Results According to the PCT and neutrophil CD64 median levels,the cases were divided into the high level group and low level group,the results found that serum creatinine,serum protein,urine protein and pathological types had no statistical difference between the high level group and low level group.The hormone sensitivity had 15 cases in the patients with high PCT level,which was significantly lower than 21 cases in the patients with low PCT level;the hormone sensitivity had 14 cases in the patients with high neutrophil CD64 level,acute renal failure,infection and thrombus in the patients with high PCT level had 8,10,6 cases,which were significantly lower than those in the patients with low PCT level;acute renal failure,infection and thrombus in the patients with high neutrophil CD64 level had 7,11,6 cases,which were significantly higher than those in the patients with low neutrophil CD64 level (P<0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum PCT and neutrophil CD64 are significantly correlated with the therapeutic effect and clinical prognosis in the patients with nephrotic syndrome.
