Aim To investigate the effects of Y-IP5 on morphine-induced behavioral sensitization and CPP in mice.Methods Locomotor activity was detected after Y-IP5 administration or co-administration of Y-IP5 with morphine in mice.Mice were treated with morphine to induce behavioral sensitization. Then the effects of Y-IP5 on the development, transfer and expression of morphine-induced behavioral sensitization were investigated. Mice were treated with morphine to induce CPP. Then the effect of Y-IP5 on the acquisition of morphine-induced CPP was studied.Results Y-IP5 itself didn′t influence locomotor activity of mice.Co-administration of Y-IP5 with morphine inhibited morphine-induced hyperactivity (P<0.05) and the development of morphine-induced behavioral sensitization in mice (P<0.05), however, did not influence the transfer and expression of morphine-induced behavioral sensitization.Co-administration of Y-IP5 with morphine also inhibited the acquisition of morphine-induced CPP (P<0.05).Conclusion Y-IP5 may inhibit the psychological dependence induced by morphine.

Objective To report 9 HIV-negative patients with talaromycosis marueffei (TSM)complicated by Sweet syndrome,and to analyze the relationship of the anti-interferon-γ (anti-IFN-γ)autoantibody with TSM complicated by Sweet syndrome.Methods HIV-negative patients with TSM complicated by Sweet syndrome were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University between 2013 and 2018.Their clinical and laboratory data were analyzed retrospectively.Meanwhile,19 HIV-positive patients with TSM and 107 health checkup examinees served as controls.Anti-IFN-γ autoantibody was detected in peripheral blood samples of the patients and controls.Results A total of 9 HIV-negative patients with TSM (5 males and 4 females) were included in this study,and the age of onset ranged from 38 to 60 years.The 9 patients all presented with disseminated infections,manifesting as long-term irregular fever,multiple lymph node enlargement,cough,emaciation and anemia.All of the 9 patients met the diagnostic criteria for classical Sweet syndrome,and microbiological examination of Sweet syndrome lesions was negative.Besides Talaromyces marneffei,6 patients also were infected with nontuberculous mycobacteria,4 with varicella-zoster virus,and 2 with Salmonella.All the 9 HIV-negative patients with TSM were positive for anti-IFN-γ autoantibody,while the 107 healthy controls and 19 HIV-positive patients with TSM were negative for anti-IFN-γ autoantibody.Conclusion Anti-IFN-γ autoantibody may be associated with HIV-negative TSM complicated by Sweet syndrome.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence and influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders(WMSDs) among workers in a shipyard. METHODS: A total of 496 workers in a large shipyard in Guangdong Province were selected as research subjects using the convenient sampling method. The Questionnaire of Musculoskeletal Disorders was used to investigate the prevalence of WMSDs in various regions of the body in the past year.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the potential influencing factors of WMSDs in the frequently affected body parts. RESULTS: The prevalence of WMSDs was 70.2%(348/496). The prevalence rates of WMSDs in different body regions were: lower back/waist(43.1%), neck(29.4%), shoulder(29.0%), hand/wrist(25.4%), knee(22.4%), hip/leg(14.3%), ankle/foot(12.1%), upper back(11.3%) and elbow(9.3%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that increased risk of lower back/waist WMSDs occurred in workers who carry heavy objects>5.0 kg, who work in uncomfortable positions, who repeatedly perform the same work every day, and who repeatedly perform the same action using the lower limbs and ankles(P<0.05). Employees working ≤8 hours or more than 8 hours per day had higher risk of developing lower back/waist WMSDs compared with workers working 8-10 hours per day(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The prevalence of WMSDs among workers in the shipyard is high.The lower back/waist WMSD is the most common one. The influencing factors include work organization and adverse ergonomic factors.
