AIM: To evaluate effects of inhaled nitric oxide(iNO) on adhesion molecule CD11b expression on lung neutrophils in experimental meconium aspiration syndrome(MAS) rabbits treated with conventional mechanical ventilation under room air or 100%O 2. METHODS: Animals were randomly allocated to 8 groups( n= 48) of 6 each: two MAS model groups(under room air or 100%O 2 without iNO treatment), 6 treatment groups were treated with continuous NO inhalation at a dose of 0.2?10 -6 mol/L,0.33?10 -6 mol/L or 0.67?10 -6 mol/L respectively for 12 hours under room air or 100%O 2. Mean systemic arterial pressure(SAP) and methemoglobin (MeHb) were performed at basement time, 0, 2, 4, 12 hours. Expression of CD11b on neutrophils in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) was detected with flow cytometry. RESULTS: SAP, MeHb at different time among different groups were within the normal scale. CD11b expression on the neutrophils in the BALF significantly decreased in groups of inhalation 0.33?10 -6 mol/L or 0.67?10 -6 mol/L NO, compared with the two MAS model groups. ( ?s : under 21%O 2, 0.33?10 -6 mol/L NO,121?20 vs 392?204; 0.67?10 -6 mol/L NO,112?30 vs 392?204;under 100%O 2,0.33?10 -6 mol/L NO,113?24 vs 293?65; 0.67?10 -6 mol/L 102?114 vs 293?65, P 0 05). No statistic difference was observed between groups inhaled 0.33?10 -6 mol/L NO and 0.67?10 -6 mol/L NO. CONCLUSION: 0.33?10 -6 mol/L or 0.67?10 -6 mol/L NO inhalation down-regulated the CD11b expression on the neutrophils in BALF to reduce the sequestration of neutrophils in rabbit lung.

Objective To explore the ultrasonographic characteristics of internal jugular vein(IJV) valve insufficiency and reflux.Methods 40 healthy volunteers' bilateral IJVs were study subjects.The inner diameter,valve morphological feature,reflux distance and hemodynamic parameters in IJV were detected by color Doppler ultrasound (CDU),the contrast agents transvalvular regurgitation in IJV was monitored by contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) (with low mechanical index,MI 0.10),then analyse the results of two methods.Results Of 80 investigated IJVs,1 vein was excluded due to absence of its left valve,so 79 veins were evaluated in the study.The IJV's inner diameter on the right side was larger than on the left side,but there was no significant difference (P >0.05).The detection rate of IJV valve insufficiency was 31.6% (25/79),which was higher on the right than that on the left,but without significant difference (P > 0.05).The detection rate of IJV valve insufficiency was significantly higher in the group of greater than or equal to 50 years old than that in less than 50 years old(P <0.05).The reflux distance in IJV displayed by CDU was associated with IJV valve's function.Compaired with sufficient valves,the reflux duration time in insufficient valves during quiet respiration showed no significant difference (P >0.05).During Valsalvalike manoeuvres and quiet respiration,the reflux duration time in sufficient valves showed no significant difference (P > 0.05).The reflux duration time in insufficient valves during Valsalva-like manoeuvres showed significantly higher than that during quiet respiration (P <0.01).Compaired with sufficient valves,the peak flow velocity of reflux flow in insufficient valves was significantly prolonged during quiet respiration and Valsalva-like manoeuvres (P <0.05,P <0.01,respectively).Conclusions The incidence rate of IJV valve insufficiency and reflux is high in healthy individuals.During quiet respiration and/or Valsalva-like manoeuvres,detecting the reflux distance,reflux duration time and peak flow velocity of reflux flow by CDU are valuable in evaluating IJV valve insufficiency and the degree of IJV reflux.

Objective:
To explore whether social support has a moderating effect on the relationship between negative emotions including depression, anxiety, stress with suicidal behaviors, and to provide reference for the suicide prevention among college students.
Methods:
Three universities were selected in Qinghai, Ningxia and Xinjiang province, and 4 893 college students were selected using cluster sampling method. The Social Support Scale, Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale(DASS) and Suicidal Behavior Questionnaire-Revised self-evaluation questionnaires were used to collect data. Hierarchical linear regression model was employed to explore the moderating effect of social support.
Results:
A total of 4 893 college students completed full questionnaires and included in the final analysis. Among them, 738(15.08%) were under high risk of suicidal behaviors. The regression model showed that DASS score was positively associated with suicidal behavior (β=0.31, P<0.01), and social support was negatively associated with suicidal behavior (β=-0.08, P<0.01); Additionally, the interaction between social support and DASS negatively correlated with suicidal behavior (β=-0.05, P<0.01).
Conclusion
Social support may have buffering effects on the relationship between negative emotions (depression, anxiety and stress) and suicidal behaviors.

Background Air pollution is related to the occurrence and development of mental diseases. Olfactory bulb damage might be the potential prodromal symptom and sign of these diseases. The toxicity of diesel exhaust (DE), one of the main sources of air pollution, on olfactory bulb and the underlying mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Objective To explore the toxicity of DE on mouse olfactory bulb and underlying mechanisms. Methods A total of 40 C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups for exposure to DE by systemic inhalation: control group (filtered air), low exposure group (750 μg·m−3 DE), medium exposure group (1500 μg·m−3 DE), and high exposure group (3000 μg·m−3 DE). The mouse inhalation exposure to DE was performed 1 h per day for 28 d. HE staining was performed to observe pathological changes in mouse olfactory bulb tissue. TUNEL assay was used to observe apop-tosis in olfactory bulb. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) was exhibited to explore potential mechanisms of olfactory bulb damage associated with DE. Quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) was used to determine mRNA expression levels of inflammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Immunofluorescence staining was conducted to observed the microglia and astrocyte activation in olfactory bulb. Results The HE staining results showed that the number of periglomerular cells in the glomerular layer of olfactory bulb decreased in a dose-dependent manner, and the cells in the granule cell layer of olfactory bulb became disordered after DE exposure. The TUNEL staining showed that TUNEL positive cells in olfactory bulb tissue and neuronal apoptosis increased in the exposed groups compared with the control group (P<0.05). The KEGG pathway analysis showed that DE associated with significant enrichment of TNF signaling pathway in olfactory bulb tissue. The qPCR results showed that the TNF-α relative expression level significantly increased by 67% and the IL-6 relative expression level by 340% in the DE high exposure dose group compared with the control group (P<0.05). According to the immunofluorescence staining results, the numbers of activated microglia and astrocytes in olfactory bulb tissue significantly increased in the DE high exposure group, the relative fluorescence intensity of ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule 1 (IBA-1) increased by 120%, the granule cell layer relative fluorescence intensity of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) increased by 400%, and the glomerular layer relative fluorescence intensity of GFAP increased by 240% than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Inhalation exposure to DE can lead to glial cell activation including microglia and astrocytes in olfactory bulb tissue by activating inflammatory pathways and releasing inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-6, leading to neuronal apoptosis in olfactory bulb tissue.
