Objective To investigate the modulation of affective pictures on experimental tonic cold and heat pain in a behavioral study. Methods Fifteen healthy female subjects went through the tonic cold and tonic heat stimulation when watching the affective pictures in a counter-balanced order after the pictures were grouped into the pleasant, the unpleasant and the neutral picture sets. The pain tolerance time ( PTT ) was recorded.Results The tolerance time was prolonged when watching the pleasant and unpleasant pictures contrast to thatwhen watching the neutral ( Unpleasant ( 146.20 ± 13.68 ) s, Neutral ( 86. 73 ± 12.93 ) s, Pleasant ( 145.27 ±15.99 ) s, F(2,42) = 5.718, P < 0.01 ) ). However, no significant difference was observed in the heat pain test under the different experimental conditions ( Unpleasant ( 74.73 ± 15.78 ) s, Neutral ( 68.80 ± 15.85 ) s, Pleasant ( 78.80± 14.81 )s, F(2.42) =0. 109, P>0.05) ). A correlation between the residual difference of arousal in pleasant and neutral picture sets and the residual difference of heat PTT in pleasant and neutral picture sets was investigated (r = 0.546, P = 0.035 ). Conclusion Besides the emotional valence,the arousal may be one of the key elements that modulate the tonic pain.

Objective We investigated interleukin (IL)-23 that might play a role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and whether it was correlated with disease activity and clinical manifestations in axial spondyloarthritis (SPA).In addition, the Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC) scores was used to examine whether recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-α receptor Ⅱ IgG Fc fusion protein for injection (rhTNFR:Fc) was effective for the reduction of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-proven sacroiliac joint (SIJ) inflammation.Methods The serum IL-23 levels of etanercept and conven-tional treatment groups were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits.At the same time, SIJ MRI SPARCC score levels were assessed by MRI, the change of clinical indicators of patients was observed.ANOVA, repeated measure data of ANOVA and Spearman's correlation analysis were used for statisical analysis.Results ① The basal serum IL-23 levels of the Etanercept group were (34.2±1.8) pg/ml and those of the conventional treatment group were (34.1 ±1.8) pg/ml (F=1 073.790, P=0.991), both were significantly higher than the healthy control group (18.1±0.8) pg/ml (P=0.005).After treatment, serum IL-23 levels of the rhTNFR: Fc treatment and conventional treatment group were (24.5 ±1.7) pg/ml and (25.2±1.7) pg/ml (F=232.488, P=0.242), (19.2±0.8) pg/ml and (21.6±1.3) pg/ml (F=114.135, P=0.025), (19.0±0.8) pg/ml and(19.4± 0.8) pg/ml (F=23.374, P=0.085) respectively.A significant decrease was observed in the two groups and the serum level of IL-23 of the rhTNFR:Fc group was lower than that of the conventional group at week 12.② SIJ MRI SPARCC scores of the rhTNFR:Fc group and the conventional drugs group were (20.1± 1.2) scores and(20.7±1.5) scores (F=2003.660, P=0.191), (12.5± 0.8) scores and (15.4±0.9) scores (F=1 680.430, P=0.004), (8.8±0.9) scores and (12.8± 0.9) scores (F=972.877, P=0.002), the scores of two group were significantly decreased after treatment.At week 12, 24 of the treatment, the rhTNFR:Fc group scores were lower than the conventional drugs group.③ The serum IL-23 levels, SLJ MRI SPARCC scores and clinical index (ESR, CRP, PGA, BASDAI, BASFI, BASMI and number of painful joints) were not correlated (P>0.05), the SIJ MRI SPARCC scores and clinical indicators were not correlated (P>0.05).Conclusion ① The serum IL-23 levels of the rhTNFR:Fc are higher than healthy controls.② rhTNFR:Fc treatment could significantly decrease IL-23 levels and improve the sacroiliac joint inflammation compared to conventional treatment.③ SIJ MRI is a good assessment method for the detection of SpA sacroiliac joint inflammation.

Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on global cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats.Methods Fifty-four adult male SD rats weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =18 each): shame operation group (group S),global cerebral I/R group (group I/R) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).Global cerebral I/R was produced by occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries combined with hypotension (MAP maintained at 35-45 mm Hg).In group D dexmedetomidine 3 μg/kg was injected iv immediately after I/R,followed by infusion of dexmedetomidine at a rate of 3 μg· kg- 1 · h- 1 until 2 h of reperfusion.The neurological deficit score (NDS) was assessed (0 =normal,100 =brain death) at 6 h (T1),24 h (T2)and 72 h (T3) of reperfusion.Then six rats were sacrificed in each group and brain tissues were removed for microscopic examination of hippocampus CA1 region and determination of activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO),contents of TNF-α and IL-1β and expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein ( GFAP).Results Compared with group S,NDS,MPO activity and the contents of TNF-α and IL-1β at T1-3 were significantly increased,the expression of GFAP was up-regulated at T2,3 in groups I/R and D ( P < 0.05 or 0.01).Compared with group I/R,NDS,MPO activity and TNF-α concent were significantly decreased at T1-3,IL-1β concent was decreased at T1,2,the expression of GFAP was down-regulated at T2,3 in group D (P < 0.05 or 0.01 ).The pathologic changes were significantly attenuated in group D as compared with group I/R.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can attenuate global cerebral I/R injury in rats,and the inhibition of inflammatory response may be involved in the mechanism.

In the presence of hydrochloric acid, tetraethoxysilicane was hydrolyzed and formed silica sol. Non-labeled immunosensor was fabricated by droping the mixture solution of the silica sol and antibody of aflatoxin B_1 on the surface of glassy carbon electrode. In this work, a Fe(CN)_6~(3-/4-) phosphate buffer solution) was employed as base solution for investigating cyclic voltammetry(CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopic(EIS) performances of the sensor, respectively. The experimental results t indicated that because of the complex formed by the immunoreaction hindered the diffusion of Fe(CN)_6~(3-/4-) on the electrode surface, the redox peak current of the immunosensor in CV obviously decreased, and its electron transfer impedance linearly) increased with increasing the concentration of aflantoxin B_1(AFB). When the medium acidit and incubation) time were pH 6.5 and 20 min, respectively, the biggest electron transfer impedance changed value before and after the immunoreaction was obtained. Under the optimal conditions, a linear range to concentration of aflatoxin B_1 was 1-10 μg/L with a detection limit of 0.1 μg/L(S/N=3). Proposed method is of high sensitivity and stability, it has been successfully applied to determine AFB_1 in maize, rice and peanut.

Objective To investigate the effect of mental processing speeds of judging traffic lights varying in location and color meaning. Methods 20 healthy adult male (age: 18 ~30 years) were enrolled in this study. By simulation of traffic lights as picture stimuli, all subjects performed a Go/NoGo task separately under normal condition, location-reversed condition, color meaning-reversed condition and both location and color meaning-reversed condition randomly. The accuracy rate and reaction time of the behavior task were quantified. Results The average accuracy rate of the four conditions was 99. 13% , no differences were found in different traffic light colors and different conditions. In the normal condition,the subjects' reaction time(ms) of traffic lights were as fallowings: red light 491.59 ±71.74; green light 487.55 ±58. 11, no difference was found between the two traffic light colors (P=0.522). In the location-reversed condition, subjects' average reaction time(ms) was respectively for red light 606.29 ± 107.59, and green light 593.13 ± 102.45. In the color meaning-reversed condition, it was respectively for red light 572.08 ±78.75, and green light 592.43 ±87.58. Compared with the normal condition, subjects' reaction time was prolonged in the location-reversed condition (F(1,19)=59.77, P<0.01), and also in the color meaning-reversed condition (F(1,19) =52.55, P<0.01). When in the both location and color meaning-reversed condition, the subjects' reaction time (ms) of traffic lights was respectively 502.92 ± 65.27 for red light, and 508.97 ±63.40 for green light,the result came close to statistical significance(P= 0.065)compared with the normal condition. Conclusion A likely "conceptual constancy" is demonstrated on the basis of prolonging the brains' information processing when location and color information changes.
