Objective To explore the relationship between muscle fatigue and pain in lumbar muscle fatigue induced test. Methods From July to October, 21 healthy female volunteers were subjected to the fatigue induced test. Their root mean square (RMS) and median frequency (MF) of the surface electromyography were collected, their fatigue were assessed with Borg Fatigue Scale and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and their maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) and pressure pain threshold (PPT) were measured, before, during and after ex-periment. They were divided into pain or no-pain groups according to the symptom, and the differences before and after test were compared. Results There was significant difference in the scores of Borg Fatigue Scale and VAS, MVC, RMS, and MF after test (Z>6.064, P<0.001). There was significant difference between two groups in all the data before test, and there was significant difference between two groups in the difference before and after test of the VAS score (t=-4.112, P=0.001) and RMS (t>2.385, P<0.05) in some points. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the optimal cut-off point of VAS score difference was 3.45 in predicting the pain onset, with sensi-tivity of 100％and specificity of 81.8％. Conclusion For the fatigue induced test, the fatigue VAS score difference may predict the induced pain, and RMS difference associate with the occurrence of pain. No significant is observed of the Borg Fatigue Scale and PPT.

Objective To study the correlation between patellar stability and keen clinical manifestation in adults with Kaschin-Beck disease (KBD).Methods Through a cross-sectional study in September 2016,one hundred and forty-three adult patients with KBD were asked to accept a digital radiographic X-ray (DR) which included positive and lateral slices of knee joint and axis slice of patellar.Meanwhile,every patient must undergo a Lysholm function evaluation for knee joint and morphological measurement on the DR film which included Insall index,lateral patellofemoral angle,sulcus angle,congruence angle,lateral migrating ratio of patella,and patellofemoral index.Then,the regression equation was built and the correlation analysis was made with multiple linear regression test.Results One hundred and forty-three patients' average scores of Insall index,lateral patellofemoral angle,sulcus angle,congruence angle,lateral migrating ratio of patella,patellofemoral index and Lysholm score were 1.10 ± 0.17,(14.49 ± 1.47)°,(138.08 ± 3.86)°,(11.55 ± 2.17)°,(1.34 ± 0.13)％,1.18 ±0.10,and (62.96 ± 6.11) scores.By multiple linear regression test,Insall index (X1),congruence angle (X4),lateral migrating ratio of patella (X5),and patellofemoral index (X6) were selected to enter into the equation;while,lateral patellofemoral angle and sulcus angle were rejected.The multiple linear regression equation was as follows:Y =17.529 + 15.232X5 + 0.950X4 + 15.957X6-4.224X1.The adjusted determination coefficient (R2) of the equation was 0.559.Those indexes which were selected to enter into the equation were ranked from big to small based on the impact on Lysholm as follow:congruence angle,lateral migrating ratio of patella,patellofemoral index,and Insall index.Among them,Lysholm score had a negative correlation with Insall index.Through variance analysis,F valve was 46.642,and P ＜ 0.05,which meant the fitted equation had statistical significance.Conclusion There is significant correlation between the patellar stability and knee Lysholm scoring in adult with KBD,which is reflected with the following parameters from big to small in turn:patellofemoral index,lateral migrating ratio of patella,congruence angle and Insall index.

Objective To study the regulating mechanisms of cobaltous chloride (CoCl2)induced hypoxia on muscle atrophy.Methods The mouse skeletal C2C12 myotube line was used as the cell model and divided into a control group,a CoCl2 group,a 3-Methyladenine(3MA)group and a CoCl2+3MA group.The control group was not given any treatment,the CoCl2 group was treated with 200 μM CoCl2 to induce hypoxia,and the 3MA group or CoCl2+3MA group was treated with 5 mM 3MA in the absence or presence of 200 μM CoCl2.The Giemsa stain was conducted to observe the morphology of myotubes.The multifunctional microplate reader was utilized to quantify the reactive oxygen species (ROS)expression.The autophagosome was observed by using the transmission electron microscopy.The mRNA and protein expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α),Bcl2/adenovirus E1B19kDa interacting protein 3(BNIP3),microtubule associated protein1 light chain 3(LC3)were detected using the quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (QRT-PCR)and Western blotting (WB).Moreover,3-Methyladenine(3MA)was used to suppress autophagy and the expression of muscle atrophy F-box(MAF-bx)was detected.Results More spindly ring-shaped myotubes were formed in the control group,while CoCl2 induced myotubes atrophy and rupture.The expression of ROS increased significantly in the CoCl2 group compared with the control group(t=-4.965,P=0.008).Transmission electron microscopy results showed autophagosome formation induced by CoCl2,and significant improvement in the HIF-1α,BNIP3 and LC3 in the CoCl2 group compared with the control group(P＜0.05).The protein expression of MAFbx decreased when co-cultured with CoCl2 and 3MA(F=18.246,P=0.001).Conclusions The skeletal muscle atrophy caused by CoCl2 induced hypoxia may be associated with autophagy promoted by the HIF-1α/BNIP3 signal pathway,and inhibition of hypoxia induced autophagy can partly reduce the atrophy in skeletal C2C12 myotubes.

Objective To study the correlation between knee biomechanics and clinical manifestation in adults with Kaschin-Beck disease(KBD). Methods Three hundred and eighty-nine digital radiographic X-ray (DR)anteroposterior keen films of adult KBD patients diagnosed at the Center for Disease Control and Prevention of Gansu Province from Sep 2012 to Sep 2016 were taken as subjects of observation and were retrospectively reviewed. Every patient must undergo a WOMAC function evaluation for knee joint and biomechanic angle measure for the lower limbs on the DR film which included femur angle, tibial angle, femur-tibial angle and joint space angle, Insall-Salvati index (LT/LP), and LT/HI index. Then, the regression equation was built and the correlation analysis was made with multiple linear regression test. Results Three hundred and eighty-nine patients' average scores of femur angle(X1),tibial angle(X2),joint space angle(X3),femur-tibial angle(X4),LT/LP index(X5),LT/HI index (X6) and WOMAC evaluation were (76.32 ± 2.05)°, (110.65 ± 4.68)°, (4.73 ± 0.91)°, (137.56 ± 2.29)°, 0.98 ± 0.12, 1.73 ± 0.11, and (61.35 ± 7.68) scores. By multiple linear regression test, femur angle, tibial angle, femur-tibial angle,LT/LP index, and LT/HI index were selected to enter into the equation; while, joint space angle was rejected. The multiple linear regression equation was as follows: Y = - 77.307 - 6.327X6+ 1.360X1+ 1.310X5+ 0.331X4-0.147X2.The adjusted determination coefficient (R2) of the equation was 0.958. Through variance analysis, the fitted equation had statistical significance (F = 1 790.391, P < 0.05). Through two- tailed significance test, the above-mentioned 5 indexes that were adopted to enter this question were in significant correlation with WOMAC scores(P<0.05).Conclusion There is a significant correlation between knee biomechanic angle and WOMAC scoring in adults with KBD,which is reflected with the following parameters from big to small in turn:femur angle,tibial angle, LT/LP index,femur-tibial angle,LT/HI index,.

Objective To explore the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on behaviors and hippocampal extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK)/cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) expressions in depression model rats.Methods Forty male SD rats were divided into 4 groups randomly:normal group,model group,EA group and sham EA group (n=10).Chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) and isolation were performed to establish the depression models.EA was applied to Yintang (EX-HN3) and Baihui (GV20) 10 min once a day for two weeks in EA group;sham EA group received placebo treatment.After 4 weeks of intervention,the sucrose intake test,forced swim test and Morris water maze test were used to measure the antidepressant-like effect of EA treatment.The expressions of ERK and CREB in the hippocampus were detected by Western blotting.Results As compared with the model group,the EA group had significantly improved sucrose solution intake ([62.080±11.995] ％ vs.[74.881±3.308] ％) and statistically decreased immobility time ([123.668± 18.925] s vs.[93.012±15.957] s) in forced swimming (P＜0.05).In Morris water maze test,the escape latency to find the target platform became gradually shorter and the frequency of crossing platform significantly increased in EA group (0.900±1.875 vs.3.200±1.549,P＜0.05).The phosphorylated(p)-ERK and p-CREB levels in the EA group were significantly increased as compared with those in the model group (P＜0.05).Conclusion EA could improve depression-like behaviors by increasing the levels of p-ERK and p-CREB in the hippocampus.

Objective:To analyze the viral nucleic acid and cytokines in 12 children with 2019-nCoV infection.Methods:Clinical and laboratory data of the children diagnosed with 2019-nCoV infection in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from January to April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Throat and anal swabs were collected on alternate days for the detection of 2019-nCoV nucleic acid by fluorescence quantitative PCR. Flow cytometry was used to detect serum cytokines including IFN-γ, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-22, TNF-α and TNF-β during the early (both throat and anal swab tests were positive), the intermediate (throat swab test was negative, while anal swab test remained positive), and the convalescence (both throat and anal swab tests were negative) stages of infection.Results:A total of 12 children were enrolled in this study. The male-to-female ratio was 5∶1. The average age was (7.0±4.3) years. There were two asymptomatic, five mild and five common cases. No severe or critical cases were involved. Initially, throat and anal swab nucleic acid tests were simultaneously positive in nine children newly diagnosed in our hospital and the median time of viral shedding in throat swab was longer than that in throat swab [32 (4.5, 45.0) d vs 3 (2, 9) d, Z=11.0, P=0.010]. The median difference of viral shedding time between anal swab and pharyngeal swab was 25.5 (1.5, 42.8) d. The overall levels of serum cytokines IL-17A, IL -4 and IL-5 in different stages of the disease (early, intermediate and convalescence stage) were statistically different ( Z or F, P values were 8.33, 0.016; 5.36, 0.010 and 6.56, 0.004, respectively), and a significant increase was observed in the intermediate stage of infection. IL-17F, IL-2 and IL-22 were all increased during the infection, but there was no significant statistical difference among the three stages ( P>0.05). Conclusions:It was noted that intestinal viral shedding needed a longer time. Although the infectivity has not been determined, higher requirements have been put forward for disease prevention and control. Cytokines secreted by Th2 and Th17 cells were involved in the immune response in children with non-severe 2019-nCoV infection. Monitoring viral shedding and cytokine changes in pediatric patients would be conducive to disease assessment.
