Objective To investigate the predictive value of Rho-associated coiled-coil contai-ning kinase1(ROCK1)and ROCK2 for no reflow in patients with acute ST segment elevation myocar-dial infarction(STEMI)undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods A total of 168 STEMI patients who received PCI were selected as study objects,and were divided into no reflow group and normal blood flow group based on whether no reflow occurred,were divided into high ex-pression group and low expression group based on the expression of ROCK1 and ROCK2.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the levels of serum ROCK1 and ROCK2.The differ-ences in serum levels of ROCK1 and ROCK2 between the no reflow group and the normal blood flow group were analyzed,and the risk factors for no reflow in STEMI patients undergoing PCI treatment were analyzed,the predictive value of ROCK1 and ROCK2 for no reflow in STEMI patients undergoing PCI treatment were analyzed.Results Of 168 STEMI patients,no reflow occurred in 46 cases(27.38%).The Killip grade,time from onset to hospital admission,proportion of patients who did not use proph-ylactic no reflow,serum ROCK1 level and serum ROCK2 level in the no reflow group were higher or longer than those in the normal blood flow group(P<0.05).The incidence of no reflow in ROCK1 high expression group was higher than that in ROCK1 low expression group,and the incidence of no reflow in ROCK2 high expression group was higher than that in ROCK2 low expression group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence rates of no reflow in the ROCK1 high expression group and ROCK2 high expression group were higher than that in the ROCK1 low expression group and ROCK2 low expression group(P<0.05).Multiple Logistic regression analy-sis showed that Killip grade of Ⅲ to Ⅳ,longer onset to admission time,no using prophylactic no re-flow drugs,and higher serum levels of ROCK1 and ROCK2 were all risk factors for no reflow in STEMI patients undergoing PCI(P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic curve showed that ROCK1 and ROCK2 had high predictive value for PCI in STEMI patients without reflow,and the predictive value was increased after the combination of ROCK1 and ROCK2.The area under the curve was 0.789(95%CI,0.711 to 0.867).Conclusion High serum levels of ROCK1 and ROCK2 are both risk factors for no reflow in STEMI patients undergoing PCI,and their combination has high predictive value for no reflow.

OBJECTIVE Cognitive deficit is a com-mon comorbidity in temporal lobe epilepsy(TLE)and that is not well controlled by current therapeutics.Currently,how epileptic seizure affects cognitive performance remains largely unclear.The subiculum is the major out-put of the hippocampus,which projects to entorhinal cor-tex and other more distinct brain regions.Physiologically,the subiculum codes spatial working memory and naviga-tion information including place,speed,and trajectory.Importantly,prior studies have noted the importance of the subiculum in the beginning,spreading,and generaliz-ing process of hippocampal seizure.How seizure-activated neurons in subiculum participate in cognitive impairment remains largely elusive.METHODS In this study,we sought to label the subicular seizure-activated c-fos+ neu-rons with a special promoter with enhanced synaptic activity-responsive element E-SARE in the subiculum,combined with chemogenetics and designer receptors exclusively activated by designer drugs(DREADDs),Ca2+ fiber photometry approaches,and behavioral tasks,to reveal the role of these neurons in cognitive impairment in epilepsy.RESULTS We found that chemogenetic inhibi-tion of subicular seizure-tagged c-fos+ neurons(mainly CaMK Ⅱ α+ glutamatergic neurons)alleviates seizure generalization and improves cognitive performance in the hippocampal CA3 kindling TLE model.While inhibition of seizure-labeled c-fos+ GABAergic interneuron shows no effect on seizure and cognition.As a comparison,che-mogenetic inhibition of the whole subicular CaMK Ⅱ α+ neuron impairs cognitive function in na?ve mice in basal condition.Notably,inhibition of subicular seizure-tagged c-fos+ neurons enhances the recruitment of cognition-responsive c-fos+ neurons via increasing neural excitability during cognition tasks.CONCLUSION Our results dem-onstrate that subicular seizure-activated c-fos+ neurons contribute to cognitive impairment in TLE,suggesting sei-zure-tagged c-fos+ neurons as the potential therapeutic target to alleviate cognitive impairment in TLE.

Objective: To investigate the distribution patterns of mosquitoes, midges and related arboviruses in Sichuan province. Methods: Blood-sucking insects were collected from houses and pens, using the ultraviolet lights. Mosquito samples were classified according to morphologic characteristics and then stored at liquid nitrogen. All samples were incubated with BHK-21 and C6/36 cells for virus isolation and then detected for their viral genes. Sequences of the virus were identified and analyzed by molecular biological software, such as BioEdit 7.0.5.3, MEGA 6.0. Results: In total, 17 019 mosquitoes from 3 genera and 4 species and 12 700 midges were collected from the southeast regions of Sichuan province in 2016 and 2017. Among them, 79.4% (13 519/17 019) belonged to Culex tritaeniorhynchus with 11.1% (1 897/17 019) as Armigeres subalbatus, 5.5% (930/17 019) were Anopheles sinensis and 4.0% (673/17 019) were Anopheles sinensis 3 virus strains that isolated from Culex tritaeniorhynchus were identified as typeⅠ Japanese encephalitis virus. Seven pools of mosquitoes isolated from Hejiang county were identified Japanese encephalitis virus gene positive through PCR amplification. With 4 pool midges were detected positive for Akabane virus through PCR gene amplification while midges samples didn't have virus isolates. Conclusions: Culex tritaeniorhynchus appeared the predominant species in the southeast regions of Sichuan. Japanese encephalitis virus transmitted by mosquitoes and Akabane virus by midges were prevalent in southeast Sichuan province.
