OBJECTIVETo observe the analgesic effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) rats and its regulating effect on inflammation reaction and the endogenous opioid system of synovial tissues. Methods A total of 30 healthy male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a control group, a model group and an EA group, 10 rats in each one. The chronic pain model of CIA rats was made by cattle type-II collagen in the model group and EA group. Rats in the EA group were treated with EA at "Zusanli" (ST 36) and "Kunlun" (BL 60) for 30 min from 16th day after model establishment, once a day for consecutive 10 days. Rats in the control group did not receive any treatment. Rats in the model group were treated with fixation as the EA group. Threshold of pain, arthritis index, paw swelling were measured before model establishment and 16 d, 20 d, 23 d and 25 d after model establishment. The levels of beta-endorphin (β-END), met-enkephalin (met-ENK), dynorphin A (Dyn A) were measured by radioimmunoassay; the mRNA expressions of mu opioid receptor (MOR), kappa opioid receptor (KOR) and delta opioid receptor (DOR) in synovial tissues of CIA rats were detected by I quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR).

RESULTSCompared with the control group, threshold of pain was reduced (all P<0. 01), arthritis index was increased (all P<0. 01) and paw swelling was increased (all P<0. 01) in the model group on the 16th day, 20th day, 23rd day, 25th day after model establishment. Compared with the model group, the threshold of pain was increased in the EA group (all P<0. 01), arthritis index and paw swelling were reduced (all P<0. 01) on the 23rd day and 25th day after model establishment. Compared with the control group, the level of Dyn A in synovial tissues of CIA rats was increased in the model group (P<0. 01); the mRNA expressions of MOR, KOR and DOR were down-regulated lower than 0. 5 fold of normal level. Compared with the model group, the level of β-END in synovial tissues of the knee joint was increased in the EA group (P<0. 05), and the mRNA expressions of MOR, KOR and DOR in synovial tissues of CIA rats were up-regulated more than 2 folds of normal level.

CONCLUSIONThe intervention of EA on chronic pain of CIA rats is superior, which is likely to be related with effects of EA on anti-inflammation and up-regulation of synovial tissue β-END and MOR, KOR, DOR.

Objective:To investigate the status of family function of patients after hysterectomy, explore the effect of self-concealment on family function.Methods:From January to November 2021,the 177 patients after hysterectomy in Guangdong Provincial People ′s Hospital were investigated by General Data Questionnaire, Family APGAR Indexand Self-Concealment Scale (SCS), and the influencing factors of family function were analyzed by univariate analysis and binary logistic regression. Results:The total score of APGAR and SCS was 9.00 (6.50, 10.00) and 24.00 (17.00, 33.00) after hysterectomy. Univariate analysis showed that marital status, working conditions and tendency of self-concealment were the influencing factors of family function. In the regression analysis of binary Logistic, tendency of self-concealment( P<0.01) and marital status ( P<0.01) entered the regression equation. Conclusions:The family function of patients after hysterectomy is generally good, and self-concealment is a risk factor. It is suggested that in clinical work, attention should be paid to the tendency of self-concealment in patients after hysterectomy, and targeted intervention measures should be taken to improve their family function.

Objective To determine whether the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by MPP+ can be protected when the activity of cyclin-dependent kinase 5(CDK5)/p25 is inhibited specifically by TFP5.Methods The 100 μg/L of beta nerve growth factor (β-NGF) was used to induce PCI2 cells differentiating into dopaminergic neurons in vitro.Different concentrations of MPP+ (0,100,200,300,400,600,800 and 1000 μmol/L) were added to the cells;CCK8 assay was used to determine the cell activities and adequate concentration of MPP+.After induction,four groups were designed:PBS and PBS group,MPP+ and PBS group,MPP+ and TFP5 group,and MPP+ and Roscovitine group.Pretreatment of TFP5 and Roscovitne for 12 h was given to the MPP+ and TFP5 group and MPP+ and Roscovitine group,respectively.Hochest33258 staining and flow cytometry were used to detect the cell apoptosis.Western blotting was used to detect the protein expressions ofp35/25,caspase3,cleaved caspase3.Results CCK8 assay showed that the survival rate of PC12 cells was (64.84±1.58)％ when the MPP+ concentration was 300 μmol/L.Flow cytometry indicated significant differences in the apoptosis rate between different groups,which was the highest in MPP+ and PBS group ([25.61±2.74]％),following by MPP+ and TFP5 group ([13.33±1.24]％),MPP+ and Roscovitine group ([9.94±1.70]％),and PBS and PBS group ([8.68±0.21]％);significant difference was noted between MPP+ and TFP5 group and MPP+ and Roscovitine group (P＜0.05).Hochest33258 staining indicated the most obvious nucleus condensation and fragmentation and more apoptotic bodies in MPP+ and PBS group,While few apoptotic bodies were found in MPP+ and TFP5 group and MPP+ and Roscovitine group.Western blotting showed that as compared with that in the PBS and PBS group,the p25 protein level in the MPP+ and PBS group,MPP+ and TFP5 group,and MPP+ and Roscovitine group was significantly increased (P＜0.05).The cleaved caspase-3 protein expression in the MPP+ and PBS group was significantly higher than that in the PBS and PBS group (P＜0.05);the cleaved caspase-3 protein expression in the MPP+ and PBS group was significantly higher than that in the MPP+ and TFP5 group (P＜0.05).Conclusion TFP5 has protective effect against the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by MPP+ through inhibiting the CDK5/p25 expression and reducing the cleaved caspase-3 protein production.

Objective:To explore the current level of knowledge, attitude and practice of rehabilitation for postpartum diastasis recti abdominis inpuerperae, and analysis the influencing factors of behavior, in order to provide a reference frame for nursing staff to formulate effective health education programs.Methods:From November 2020 to April 2021, a self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate 522 puerperae from 4 tertiary hospitals in Guangdong province, Jiangsu province and Zhejiang province, to explore their level of knowledge, attitude and behavior of rehabilitation for postpartum diastasis recti abdominis. Mann-Whitney Utest or Kruskal-Wallis Htest was used for univariate analysis, Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to analysis the influencing factors of rehabilitative behavior.Results:The median score of knowledgedimension, attitude dimension and behavior dimension of rehabilitation for postpartum diastaisis recti abdominis in puerperae respectively were 47.0 (36.0, 55.0), 26.0 (24.0, 31.0), 15.0 (10.0, 18.0) points. The results show that the main factors influencing of rehabilitation behaviorfor postpartum diastaisis recti abdominis in puerperae were knowledge ( χ2 = 87.78, P<0.05), attitude ( χ2 = 4.77, P<0.05), number of deliveries ( χ2 = 3.94, P<0.05) and family personal monthly income ( χ2 = 4.88, P<0.05). Conclusions:At present, puerperae have a positive attitude towards rehabilitation for postpartum diastasis recti abdominis, but the level of knowledge and practice of rehabilitation for postpartum diastasis recti abdominisneed to be improved.Nursing staff should focus on puerperae with incomplete knowledge, negative attitude, multiple deliveries and low family personal monthly income.

Objective:To investigate the blocking effect of non-competitive N-methyl-D-aspartic acid(NMDA) receptor antagonist Memantine on glutamate abnormal signal transmission in immature white matter induced by ischemia in vitro and in vivo. Methods:The oligodendrocyte (OL) precursor oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) cell models of 2-day-old newborn rats were prepared and divided into the normal control group, the OGD group and the Memantine group.The extracellular glutamate level of the OL precursor was measured by high performance liquid chromatography, while the concentration of intracellular calcium and the apoptosis rate of OL precursor were detected by flow cytometry.The animal models of ischemic periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) were established and divided into the sham group, the PVL group and the Memantine group.The pathological evaluation of white matter was performed under light microscope.The positive OL expression rate of myelin basic protein(MBP) was detected by immunohistoche-mistry.The myelination of white matter was evaluated under electron microscope.Results:Compared with the normal control group in vitro, the OGD group had a higher extracellular glutamate level of the OL precursor [(24.60±2.42) μmol/L vs.(9.49±1.08) μmol/L, t=9.28, P<0.01], a higher intracellular calcium concentration [(32.9±6.9)% vs.(6.9±3.5)%, t=4.41, P<0.01], a higher apoptosis rate of the OL precursor [(24.77±2.05)% vs.(6.65±1.39)%, t=15.01, P<0.01]. After treatment with Memantine, the extracellular glutamate level [(14.70±1.70) μmol/L, t=5.68, P<0.01], the intracellular calcium concentration [(23.1±2.0)%, t=6.13, P<0.01], and the apoptosis rate of the OL precursor [(11.80±2.06)%, t=5.18, P<0.01] decreased significantly.Compared with the sham group in vivo, the white matter of the PVL group showed mild or severe pathological changes, and the PVL group had a lower MBP-positive OL expression rate in the white matter [(5.94±1.37)% vs.(15.40±3.22)%, t=4.63, P<0.01]less myelin sheaths (4.00±1.00 vs.14.67±2.70, t=6.11, P<0.01) and thinner myelin sheaths [(33.83±3.21) nm vs.(79.67±6.45) nm , t=10.43, P<0.01]. After the treatment with Memantine, the number of myelin sheaths (10.30±1.50, t=6.01, P<0.01), the thickness of myelin sheaths [(57.21±4.05) nm, t=7.47, P<0.01], and the pathological changes in the white matter of newborn rats ( Z=88.479, P<0.01) all improved markedly, and the MBP positive OL expression rate in the cerebral white matter [(11.02±1.35)%, t=4.40, P<0.05] also increased significantly. Conclusions:Ischemia-induced abnormal signal transmission of glutamate in immature white matter is the important pathway leading to ischemic PVL.Memantine can effectively block the abnormal signal transmission and thus may probably provide a new approach for the effective prevention and treatment of PVL in premature infants.
