Objective To evaluate the significance of molecular microenvironment in neurons for the nerve regeneration and repair by investigating the dynamic changes of nerve regrowth-associated proteins following bilateral sciatic nerves crush in pyridoxine-induced ganglionopathy rats model.Methods Bilateral sciatic nerve crush were performed 4 weeks after induction of pyridoxine-induced ganglionopathy. The changes of mean percentage of TUNEL positive cells in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) following bilateral sciatic nerves crush for 7 days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days. Western blotting techniques were used to investigate the expression of GAP-43 and trk A in different duration following sciatic nerve crush injury.Results The percentage of TUNEL positive neurons in DRG significantly increased in early stage and markedly decreased in 21～28 days after sciatic nerve crush. The expression of GAP-43 and trk A in DRG were upregulated at all time point after nerve injury in pyridoxine-induced ganglionopathy, but the overall level was lower than that of pure nerve crush injury.Conclusion In pyridoxine-induced ganglionopathy, neurons in DRG undergo survival crisis, the gene expression system was disintegrated, the capacity to regenerate their axons declines after nerve injury.

Objective To understand the consulting relationship among students of some teaching class of epidemiology.Methods Data were collected through questionnaire and the network characteristics were analyzed with social network analysis software-NetDraw.Results The consulting network relation of this class was loosening,but there were a few people who have more degree and betweenness than others;some cliques were associated with major and sex.Conclusions Social network analysis can help teacher understand the consulting relationship among students,which may provide the base for making the management strategy on teaching class.

Objective To observe the effect of Huangxiong Kangshuan capsule on serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in patients with acute cerebral infarction. Methods Ninety-two patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicinefrom July 2013 to December 2016 were enrolled, and they were divided into an observation group (47 cases) and a control group (45 cases) by random number table. The control group was given conventional treatment of ischemic cerebrovascular disease, while the observation group was additionally treated by Huangxiong Kangshuan capsule orally taken, once 3 tablets, 3 times a day, on the basis of routine treatment; the duration of treatment was 2 weeks in both groups. After 2 weeks of treatment, the clinical effects of the two groups and the changes of serum hs-CRP and IL-6 levels were observed.Results After treatment, the levels of serum hs-CRP and IL-6 were decreased significantly compared with those before treatment in the two groups [observation group: hs-CRP (mg/L) was 6.18±2.17 vs. 14.11±3.01, IL-6 (ng/L): 28.10±11.47 vs. 120.83±24.51; control group: hs-CRP (mg/L) was 8.89±2.46 vs. 13.97±2.69, IL-6 (ng/L) was 49.48±16.43 vs. 115.25±24.05], and the degree of decline in the observation group was more significant than that in the control group [hs-CRP (mg/L): 6.18±2.17 vs. 8.89±2.46, IL-6 (ng/L): 28.10±11.47 vs. 49.48±16.43, bothP < 0.01]; the total effective rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group [87.2% (41/47) vs. 71.1% (32/45),P < 0.05]. Conclusion Huangxiong Kangshuan capsule can decrease the serum hs-CRP and IL-6 levels in patients with acute cerebral infarction, and has a role in brain protection and nerve function defect improvement.
