Drug addiction is a chronic relapsing brain disease that is characterized by compulsive drug use and persistence of drug craving. Drug abuse can lead to changes in the neuron structure and function of plasticity,alterations in molecules and cells,and ultimately to individual abnormal behavior. Current studies have found that epigenetic changes leading to the sustainability of gene expression is an important mechanism of drug addiction. In this review,we will systematically summarize the latest advances in epigenetic mechanisms of drug addiction. This review is expected to provide robust evidence that repeated exposure to drugs of abuse induces changes within the brain′s reward regions in three major modes of epigenetic regulation-histone modifications such as acetylation and methylation , DNA methylation,and non-coding RNAs. It promises a new perspective from which to gain insights into the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms of drug addiction and a new area for epigenetic research on clinical drug addiction treatment.

BACKGROUND:Except for mechanical properties and physical and chemical properties, corrosion resistance testing is necessary for a variety of biomedical materials applied in the oral environment to ensure the biocompatibility of materials. OBJECTIVE:To explore the corrosion resistance of titanium abutment and different titanium aloysin vitro. METHODS:Corrosion environment byin vitroartificial saliva was constructed with pH=6.0 at (37±0.5)℃. Potentiodynamic polarization technique, scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction methods were employed to assess the corrosion resistance of titanium aloy, gold aloy, nickel-chromium aloy, and titanium abutment immersed in the artificial saliva for 24 hours. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Different aloys had different steady-state potentials, and the range of passivation region was the largest for gold aloy, folowed by titanium abutments and titanium aloys, and the smalest for nickel-chromium aloy. After 24 hours of immersion in the artificial saliva, passivation films appeared on the surface of different materials. under the scanning electron microscope, the nickel-chromium aloy surface showed obvious traces of corrosion and there were a large number of large-diameter deep pits, but no corrosion occurred on the surface of the remaining three kinds of aloys; on the surface of nickel-chromium aloy, the contents of chromium, molybdenum and aluminum were decreased, and the contents of nickel and oxygen were increased, but there were stil no changes on the surface of the remaining aloys. Cr2O3 was found on the surfaceof nickel-chromium aloy, TiO2 was generated on the surface of titanium abutment and titanium aloy, but Au and Pt stil existed in a single phase on the surface of gold aloy. These findings indicate that titanium aloy and titanium abutment have similar corrosion resistance that is inferior to the gold aloy, but better than the nickel-chromium aloy.

Objective To compare the efficacy of transumbilical-ultrafine gastroscope sympathectomy for severe palmar hyperhidrosis using two distinct levels of T3 and T4.Methods A total of 84 cases with severe primary hyperhidrosis were randomly allocated to undergo either T3 sympathectomy treatment (T3 group, n =42) or T4 sympathectomy treatment (T4 group, n =42) with no difference between the two groups.The operation time, postoperative hospital stay, patient's hands hyperhidrosis, axillary hyperhidrosis,complications were recorded at follow-up in 1,3,6,12 months.Results Operation on 84 patients were successful with mean operative time of T3 group being 55.02 ± 10.61 min and T4 group being 55.36 ± 10.51 min(P ＞ 0.05).The mean postoperative hospital stay were both 1.5 days.Patients were followed up for diaphragmatic hernia, umbilical hernia, Horner's syndrome and other serious complications for 12 months.No postoperative recurrence of palmar hyperhidrosis, severe compensatory sweating occurred in either group.The number of improved patients in T3 group's palmar hyperhidrosis,axillary hyperhidrosis, and foot hyperhidrosis were :42/42 cases, 10/16 cases, 21/29 cases, while those in T4 group were: 42/42 cases,16/17 cases 18/28 cases.Axillary hyperhidrosis improved to a larger extent in T4 group than in T3 group (P ＜0.05).There were 16(15 mild and 1 moderate)compensatory sweating in T3 group and 7(6 mild and 1 moderate) compensatory sweating in T4 group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion T3 and T4 thoracic sympathectomy using transumbilical-ultrafine gastroscope for primary palmar hyperhidrosis are safe, effective, and feasible.T4 sympathectomy is more effective in improving axillary hyperhidrosis than T3 and shows lower occurrence of postoperative compensatory hyperhidrosis.

Objective To explore the diagnosis,treatment,risk factors and prognosis factors of postpancreaticoduodenectomy hemorrhage (PPH).Methods The retrospective case-control study was adopted.The clinical data of 703 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy at Hospital 401 of the People's Liberation Army from January 2008 to July 2013 were collected.Standard pancreatoduodenectomy was carried out for the malignant tumors of the head of pancreas or ampulla,pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy was operated for the benign tumor or the duodenal papilla tumor.The corresponding treatment was adopted for PPH.The observation indicators included:(1) the surgical situation (surgical method,operation time and the volume of intraoperative blood loss),(2) diagnosis of PPH,(3) treatment of PPH,(4) univariate and multivariate analyses for the risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH,(5) univariate and multivariate analyses for the risk factors affecting prognosis of PPH patients.The measurement data with normal distribution were represented as x ± s.The measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range).The chi-square test or Fisher exact probability was used for univariate analysis.Logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis.Results (1) The surgical situation:among 703 patients,409 patients underwent standard pancreatoduodenectomy and 294 underwent pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy,including 1 combined with right hemihepatectomy,27 with portal vein reconstruction and 2 with hepatic artery reconstruction.Pancreaticojejunostomy was applied to 658 patients using mucosa anastomosis of the pancreatic duct to jejunum and 45 patients using invagination anastomosis.Supporting tube was routinely deposed in the pancreatic duct,598 patients had internal drainage and 105 patients had external drainage.The end-to-side anastomosis between common bile duct and jejunum was used for choledochojejunostomy.The 409 patients received the gastrojejunostomy using side-to-side anastomosis of gastric part and jejunum and 294 patients using end-to-side anastomosis of duodenum and jejunum.Operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss were (324 ± 54) minutes and (428 ± 118) mL.(2) The diagnosis of PPH:among 703 patients after pancreatoduodenectomy,62 patients had PPH,the hemorrhage reasons of 38 patients had been identified,and the hemorrhage reasons of 24 patients had not been identified (A level in 5 patients,B level in 17 patients,C level in 2 patients).① The site of hemorrhage:the hemorrhage outside the cavity were detect in 27 patients,the hemorrhage inside the cavity in 28 patients,and the hemorrhage from both outside and inside part of the cavity in 7 patients.② The time of hemorrhage:early-stage hemorrhage were detected in 5 patients and the delayed hemorrhage in 57 patients.③The volume of postoperative blood loss was (885 ± 253)mL,30 patients had mild hemorrhage and 32 patients had severe hemorrhage.④ The clinical classification of PPH:5,32 and 25 patients were detected in level A,B,C,and 19 patients combined with sentinel hemorrhage.(3) The treatment of PPH:①5 patients with PPH in A level were given clinical observation,blood volume supplement and other treatment,then the symptoms gradually turned better.② Among 32 patients with PPH in B level,15 patients became better after symptomatic and supportive treatments,6 patients received successful hemostasis after guglielmi detachable colis embolization,4 patients received successful hemostasis under gastroscopic hemostasis,7 patients received emergency exploratory laparotomy.Thirty-two patients were improved and then out of hospital after treatment,without occurrence of death.③ Among 25 patients with PPH in C level,4 patients received successful hemostasis after guglielmi detachable colis embolization,17 patients received hemostasis by emergency exploratory laparotomy,4 patients with undiscovered bleeding points received the treatment of fluid infusion,blood volume supplement and antacid.Among 25 patients after corresponding treatment,10 patients were improved and 15 patients were dead.(4) The result of univariate analysis showed that the combined hypertension,vascular resection and reconstruction,postoperative pancreatic leakage and postoperative intraabdominal infection were risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH (x2 =4.950,5.300,7.568,5.505,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that the combined pancreatic leakage and postoperative intraabdominal infection were independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH [OR =2.761,2.216,95％ confidence interval (CI):1.389-5.489,1.198-4.101,P ＜ 0.05].(5) The risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients:the results of univariate analysis showed that postoperative sentinel hemorrhage,postoperative pancreatic leakage,site,degree and level of hemorrhage were risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients (x2 =8.022,4.448,11.853,18.551,28.285,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that postoperative sentinel hemorrhage and site of hemorrhage (outside and inside part of the cavity) were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients (OR =5.550,0.233,95％ CI:1.595-19.314,0.086-0.635,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Pancreatic leakage and intraabdominal infection are independent risk factors after pancreatoduodenectomy.The treatment effect of the early-stage hemorrhage is better than that of the delayed hemorrhage,and angiographic embolization is the first choice of diagnosis and treatment for the delayed hemorrhage.Sentinel hemorrhage could result from aneurysm or continuous arterial hemorrhage of vascular erosion,it is the independent risk factor affecting the death of hemorrhage after pancreatoduodenectomy.

Objective To investigate effects of total flavonoids of litchi (TFL) on the proliferation of rat hepatic stellate cells (HSC-T6) in comparison with western medicine rosiglitazone, and to explore the mechanism of anti hepatic fibrosis of TFL. Methods Effect of TFL on proliferation of HSC-T6 was examined by MTT. The expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPAR-γ) mRNA, connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) mRNA in HSC-T6 cells exposured were examined by real-time quantitative PCR. Effects on HSC-T6 CTGF protein from TFL and rosiglitazone were detected by Western bloting. Results The expression of PPAR-γ mRNA was upregulated and the expression of CTGF mRNA and protein was downregulated after exposure to TFL and rosiglitazone for 72 hours. And the effect of TFL increased with the increase of concentration. Conclusion TFL can inhibit the proliferation of HSC-T6 and antagonizing liver fibrosis. This mechanism may be associated with the upregulation of PPAR-γ expression and the downregulation of CTGF expression.
