Objective To investigate the effect of intrathecal γ-aminobutyric acid transporter-1 ( GAT-1 )small interfering RNA (siRNA) on neuropathic pain in rats. Methods Male SD rats weighing 200-250 g were studied. The experiment was performed in 3 parts. Part Ⅰ Twenty rats were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n =4 each): GAT-1 siRNA-1 group, GAT-1 siRNA-2 group, GAT-1 siRNA-3 group, negative control siRNA group and DEPC treatment group. Two days after ligation of sciatic nerve, intrathecal siRNA 2 μg or equal volume of DF-PC was injected once a day for 3 consecutive days. The rats were killed and the lumbar segment of the spinal cord was removed at 2nd day after the last intrathecal injection for determination of the expression of GAT-1 in the spinal dorsal horn by Western Blot. Part Ⅱ Thirty rats were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 10 each): GAT-1 siRNA-3 + lipo2000 group, GAT-1 siRNA-3 mismatch siRNA + lipo2000 group, and DEPC treatment + lipo2000group. Paw-withdrawl threshold (PWT) to thermal and mechanical stimulation was measured before ligation of sciatic nerve, 3 days after ligation of sciatic nerve and at 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 days after consecutive administration for 3 days. Part Ⅲ Eighty-four rats were randomly divided into 3 groups as described in Part Ⅱ ( n = 28 each). Four rats were killed at each time point and the lumbar segment of the spinal cord was removed for determination of the expression of GAT-1 in the spinal dorsal horn by Western blot. Results PWT to thermal and mechanical stimulation was significantly inreased and the GAT-1 expression was down-regulated after the injection of GAT-1 siRNA.Conclusion Intrathecal GAT-1 siRNA can reduce the neuropathic pain by inhibiton of up-regulation of the GAT-1 expression in the spinal dorsal horn in rats.

Objective To research the effect of postoperative intervention on the quality of life of cervical cancer patients, in order to provide the basis for improve the quality of life of patients after operation. Methods 86 cases of cervical cancer were divided into control group and intervention group by simple random grouping method, each group contained 43 cases. The postoperative interventions were used in the intervention group after 3 months, including psychological assessment, individual education, pelvic floor rehabilitation therapy, open patient service hotline and regular follow-up. Before and after 6 months of surgery, the quality of life of cervical cancer patients were investigated. Results The index score of social relations [(48.84±4.63) scores vs. (40.72±3.74) scores], psychological field [(73.72±2.84) scores vs. (64.07±4.06) scores], environmental field [(64.07±4.08) scores vs. (55.70±4.86) scores], physiological index [(44.77±4.22) scores vs. (36.53±4.29) scores], independence [(64.81 ±5.85) scores vs. (53.95±5.91)], quality of life [(88.30±5.75) scores vs. (76.65±5.21) scores] in cervical cancer patients were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that the understanding degree of cervical cancer, radiotherapy and chemical therapy after surgery, postoperative complications, caregivers care in place and psychological intervention had correlation with the quality of life of patients in intervention group (all P<0.05), while retain ovarian and education degree had no correlation with the quality of life of patients after operation (both P>0.05). Conclusions The quality of life of cervical cancer patients after surgery is poor, and it is affected by many factors. The targeted interventions should be used in clinical works, which can significantly improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective To explore the effects of mild hypothermia (MH) on the nitric oxide (NO) and water content of brain tissues (WBT) in rats with traumatic brain edema (TBE). Methods Fifty-four Wistar rats were divided into a control group (group C), a normithermal traumatic group (NT group) and a mild hypothermia traumatic group (MHT group). The NT and MHT groups were then divided into 4 subgroups for study at 30 min, 2 h, 4 h and 8 h post-trauma. TBE models were established according to Yuan Shaoji′s method. The concentration of NO in the jugular vein was measured using chemical luminescence, and water in the brain tissues was calculated with Elliot′s formula. Results Compared with those in the group C, the concentrations of WBT and NO were significantly increased 30 min post-trauma in the NT group, and reached a peak 8h after trauma. These levels were markedly decreased in the MHT group in comparison with the NT group. Conclusions NO levels might play an important role in the development of TBE, and change synchronously with WBT. TBE could be mitigated by MH, which might promote early rehabilitation of TBE by reducing NO.
