ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between open field test(OFT) and light-dark box (LDB),as two animal models of state anxiety in Kunming mice.MethodsThe behavior of adult,male,Kunming mice in OFT and LDB was recorded by sequence,for five minutes,with a one-week inter-trial interval.The following parameters were evaluated:percentage of time exploring in the OFT central area( OFT-Ctime％ ) ; percentage of squares crossing in the OFT central area( OFT-Ccross％ ) ; total number of squares crossing in OFT(OFT-Cross) ;total number of rears in the OFT(OFT-Rear) ; number of fecal boli in OFT(OFT-FB) ; percentage of time exploring in the LDB light area( LDB-Ltime％ ) ; percentage of squares crossing in the LDB light area( LDB-Lcross％ ) ;and percentage of rears in the LDB light area( LDB-Lrear％ ) ; transitions between two areas in LDB( LDB-Transition) ; total number of squares crossing in LDB(LDB-Croas) ; total number of rears in LDB(LDB-Rear) ; number of fecal boli in LDB (LDB-FB).Subsequently,factor analysis,cluster analysis and correlation analysis were calculated for these parameters.ResultsFactor analysis and cluster analysis of variances from either OFT or LDB revealed a three behavioral dimensions:anxiety factor ( loaded by OFT-Ctime％,OFT-Ccross％ or LDB-Ltime％,LDB-Lcross％,LDB-Lrear％ ),activity factor ( loaded by OFT-Cross,OFT-Rear or LDB-Transition,LDB-Cross,LDB-Rear) and emotionality factor(loaded by OFT-FB or LDB-FB).While all the variances from both OFT and LDB in combination were analyzed,it could be seen as five components:' LDB-anxiety factor ( loaded by LDBLtime％,LDB-Lcross％ and LDB-Lrear％ ),' OFT-anxiety factor ( loaded by OFT-Ctime％ and OFT-Ccross％ ),'LDB-activity factor (loaded by LDB-Transition,LDB-Cross and LDB-Rear),'OFT-LDB-emotionality factor( loaded by OFT-FB and LDB-FB) and 'OFT-activity factor (loaded by OFT-Cross and OFT-Rear).Good correlation were found between OFT/LDB factors alone and in combination,such as OFT-emotionality factor and LDB-emotionality factor(Pearson =0.383,P＜0.05),LDB-anxiety factor and 'LDB-anxiety factor( Pearson =0.989,P＜0.01 ),OFT-anxiety factor and 'OFT-anxiety factor( Pearson =0.934,P ＜ 0.01 ),LDB-activity factor and 'LDB-activity factor ( Pearson =0.956,P ＜ 0.01 ),OFT/LDB-emotionality factor and ' OFT-LDB-emotionality factor ( Pearson =0.835,P＜0.01 ;Pearson =0.696,P＜0.01 ),OFT-activity factor and 'OFF-activity factor( Pearson =0.926,P＜0.01 ).ConclusionEither OFT or LDB comprised three behavioral dimensions:anxiety factor,activity factor and emotionality factor; however,it was difficult to establish face validity as a point-to-point concordance between OFT and LDB.Attention should be paid to heterogeneity of animal models when OFT and LDB were in combination as a behavionomics to evaluate anxiolytics in Kunming mice.

Editor's Notes: The basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine is the theoretical foundation of Chinese medicine , modernization of Chinese medicine needs of the modern theory of Chinese medicine urgently . However , it is always the important issues about how modern Chinese medicine theory should be created , and what kind of theory should have been established concerned and explored by domestic and foreign counterparts in tradi-tional Chinese medicine . To lead the development of modern Chinese medicine theory , Modern Basic Theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine series of symposiums are set up specially in the current Review column, and discussed thoroughly and systematically using three consecutive pats respectively. Among them, part I contains 3 articles about new concepts, new theories, new disciplines; part II contains 5 articles about new ideas, new norms, how to clear concept, how to verify hypotheses, why to evaluate theory; part III contains 12 articles about concept of wholism updating, treatment based on syndrome differentiation development, viscera-state doc-trine innovation, pathogeny, etiology, pathogenesis, prevention, principle of treatment, knowledge structure, cogni-tion structure , monographic study , 5-year outlook . Published article on this issue is the first one belong to new concept of part I. In this paper, we want to describe the denotation and connotation of the new concept of the modern basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine from three aspects of a concept: a label , a theoretical definition , and an operational definition learning from the international academic understanding of scientific concepts, demonstrate the necessity of theoretical premise to the research and establishment of the modern basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine and the need to build on , illustrate the inevitable trend toward modern science . The whole article contains profound meaning and a certain breakthrough and innovation. We are expected to cause concerns and discusses of experts and scholars through this article .

We present that the modern basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine is a new science in this article. To demonstrate the problem new discipline faced and needed to be understood, firstly we want to clear the related concepts of discipline and traditional Chinese medicine from an international perspective achieving the original inten-tion of deepening the research field, forming a discipline branch and towards modern teaching. Secondly, we explore the discipline classification system and in which the location of traditional Chinese medicine and theory of traditional Chinese medicine discipline, and then explore the discipline overall regularity of occurrence, development and demise focusing on regularity and evaluation criteria reveal of medicine and traditional Chinese medicine disciplines. On this basis, we demonstrate the discipline property and location of new scientific disciplines of modern basic theo-ry of traditional Chinese medicine, subjects and fields, direction and meaning and then draw a credible conclusion in accordance with deductive reasoning.

Objective:To observe influence of trimetazidine on cardiac function in patients With chronic heart failure (CHF).Methods:According to number table method,a total of 70 CHF patients accorded With inclusion standards Were randomly and equally divided into trimetazidine group and routine treatment group.According to patient's condition,routine treatment group received digitalis,diuretics,angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors etc CHF routine freatment.Trimetazidine group additionally received trimetazidine based on routine treatment.The treat-ment period Was four Weeks.Plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP)level Was measured and patients received 6min Walking test (6MWT)before and after treatment.Results:Compared With before treatment,there Was significant decrease in plasma BNP level in tWo groups after treatment (P<0.01),compared With routine treatment group, there Was significant increase in decreasing amplitude of BNP level [(655.89±135.61)pg/ml vs.(715.60±181.22) pg/ml,P<0.05]in trimetazidine group;compared With before treatment,there Was significant increase in 6min Walking distance (6MWD)in tWo groups after treatment (P<0.01),compared With routine treatment group,there Was significant increase in increasing amplitude of 6MWD [(181.46±51.16)m vs.(226.06±65.18)m,P<0.01] in trimetazidine group.Conclusion:Treatment trimetazidine can significantly reduce plasma brain natriuretic peptide level and improve heart function based on routine treatment in patients With heart failure.

Objective To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine-propofol-fentanyl combined anesthesia on somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) and motor evoked potentials (MEPs) in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery. Methods Thirty-six patients undergoing cervical spine surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 18 each): propofol-fentanyl combined anesthesia group (group C) and dexmedetomidine-propofol-fentanyl combined anesthesia group (group D). Anesthesia was induced with TCI of propofol and iv injection of fentanyl.After the consciousness disappeared, a laryngeal mask airway was placed and the patients were ventilated. In group D, dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg was injected over 10 min after the consciousness disappeared, followed by an infusion at a rate of 0.5 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 until the end of surgery. In group C, the equal volume of normal saline was administered instead of dexmedetomidine. SEPs (P15-N20) amplitudes and latency were measured and recorded before dexmedetomidine administration and at 10 min of dexmedetomidine infusion. The no-elicitation of MEPs was recorded. Results Compared with group C, there was no significant difference in P15-N20 amplitudes and latency in group D. The no-elicitation rate of MEPs in two groups was 0. Conclusion Dexmedetomidine-propofol-fentanyl combined anesthesia does not affect SEPs and MEPs in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery.

Objective To explore the effect of chronic compound stress on serum adiponectin level and AdipoR2 expression in rats.Methods Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups:the stress group underwent chronic compound stress and the control group was fed normally.After 8 weeks of stress or feeding,the serum adiponectin,blood glucose ,insulin resistance and HbA1 C,HDL-C,LDL-C,triglyceride and total cholesterol were measured.Results ①After 8 weeks of stress,the score of open-field behaviors and 24-h urocortisol were significantly different between the stress and control groups (32.0 ± 8.6 vs.52.0 ± 12.7,5.8 ± 0.4 vs.(5.3 ±0.1 ) ng/L,repectively; P ＜0.05 or 0.01 ) ;②After 8 weeks of stress,the adiponectin,total cholesterol ,triglyceride,HDL-C,InIR and HbA1 C were significantly different between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01 ) ;③After 8 weeks of stress,there were significant difference on the expression of AdipoR2mRNA and protein between the two groups (P ＜0.01 ) ,with the expression of AdipoR2mRNA of 0.67 ±0.04 and 1.00 ±0.11 and the expression of protein of 0.73±0.02 and 1.00 ± 0.04 in the stress and control group,respectively.Adiponectin was negatively related with HbA1 C,LDL-C and IR ( r = - 0.26,- 0.88 and - 0.37,P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01 ),and positively related with HDL-C ( r =0.78 ,P ＜0.01 ).Conclusions In rats,chronic compound stress decreases the level of serum adiponectin and the expression of AdipoR2 in liver.
