Neurogenesis is a process in which the neuronal stem cells differentiate into functional neurons including the cell proliferation,differentiation and migration.Previously,it was believed that neurogenesis is a prenatal process and the adult ependymal cells are incapable of regeneration.Now it is clear that mammalian brain retains the ability to generate new ceils in specific regions.One of the regions is subventricular zone of the lateral ventricles,new generated neurons and glial cells later migrate to olfactory and repair dysosmia through the RMS road.Here we will review the advances in adult neurogenesis in mammal subventficular zone.

Objective To study the effects of 5-HT1A receptor in hippocampal dentate gyrus on anxiety behavior of adult rats with Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods PD model in rats was constructed by using 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) to lesion the medial forebrain bundle (MFB).In lesioned rats and sham-operated rats,we examined the changes of the number of TFH-positive neurons in the SNc and VTA.We also examined how 5-HT1A receptor of hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) modulates the anxiety-related behavior using open field test and elevated plus-maze test,and examined monoamine neurotransmitter changes in the striatum,medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC),amygdale and ventral hippocampus using reverse-phase high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection.Results In 6-OHDA-lesioned rats,the SNc of the injected side showed a total loss of TH-ir neurons compared with the unlesioned side,and the number of TH-ir neurons in the VTA on the lesioned side decreased significantly to (34± 2)％.The locomotor activity in 6-OHDA-lesioned rats decreased compared with that in sham-operated rats.Unilaterally lesioning the MFB decreased the percentage of time spent in the center in the open-field test and percentages of open arm entries and open arm time of elevated plus maze test when compared with sham-operated rats.In the sham-operated rats,intra-DG injection of 8-OH-DPAT did not affect anxiety-like behavior.In 6-OHDA-lesioned rats,intra-DG injection of 8-OH-DPAT significantly increased the percentage of time spent in the center at a dose of 100 ng and 500 ng when compared with saline injection into the DG.Injection of WAY-100635 did not affect rats in the two groups.Unilateral 6-OHDA lesions of the MFB in rats significantly decreased DA levels in the ipsilateral striatum,mPFC,amygdale and ventral hippocampus compared with those in sham-operated rats,but had no effect on 5-HT or NA levels in those structures.Conclusion Unilateral 6-OHDA lesion of the MFB not only totally damaged DA neurons in SNc and partly damaged DA neurons in VTA,but also decreased DA level in the ipsilateral striatum,mPFC,amygdale and ventral hippocampus.Unilateral 6-OHDA lesion of the MFB induces anxiety-related behavior,and activation of 5-HT1A receptor in the hippocampal dentate gyrus has anxiolytic effect in the rat model of Parkinson's disease.

Objective To explore the relationship between placental thickness,MRI signs and postpartum hemorrhage in placenta accreta(PA)patients.Methods 28 PA patients with postpartum hemorrhage and 3 9 PA patients without postpartum hemorrhage were analyzed retrospectively.We compared the clinical features and MRI signs between the two groups,and analyzed the correlation between placental thickness and PA related postpartum hemorrhage.Results The mean placental thickness was significantly higher in the hemorrhage patients (62.04±13.826)mm than that in the patients without hemorrhage (39.72±11.362)mm.Among the clinical features, there were no correlations between age,previous intrauterine operation history,previous cesarean section history and occurrence of the PA related postpartum hemorrhage.The following MRI signs were related to the occurrence of the PA related postpartum hemorrhage,including placenta previa,local bulging of the uterine,heterogeneous signal intensity in the placenta,intraplacental hypointensity bands,intraplacental abnormal vascularity,scar covered by placenta,abnormal signal intensity around the cervix,thinning of myometrium.Conclusion Measurement of placental thickness by MRI combined with placenta previa,local bulging of the uterine,heterogeneous signal intensity in the placenta,intraplacental hypointensity bands,intraplacental abnormal vascularity,scar covered by placenta,heterogeneous signal intensity around the cervix, thinning of myometrium are valuable in predicting PA related postpartum hemorrhage.

Objective: To observe the therapeutic effect of vitrectomy combined with single-layer inverted internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap covering technique for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment(RRD) complicated with macular hole (MH). Methods: A retrospective case analysis. From January 2015 to August 2019, 29 eyes of 29 patients with RRD and MH diagnosed in the First People's Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University were included in this study. There were 16 males (16 eyes) and 13 females(13 eyes). All the eyes were peripheral RRD and involving the macular area, while complicated with MH and proliferative vitreoretinopathy in stage less than C. All the eyes were examined by BCVA and OCT. The BCVA examination was performed using the Snellen visual acuity chart, which was converted into logMAR visual acuity. Before 2017, 18 eyes were treated with vitrectomy combined with ILM peeling (ILM peeling group); after 2017, 11 eyes were treated with vitrectomy combined with single-layer inverted ILM flap covering technique (ILM inverted group). The differences of age (t=0.360), onset time (t=1.235), number of holes except MH (t=0.060), RRD range (t=1.232), gas filled eyes (χ²=0.324) between the two groups were not statistically significant (P>0.05). The average follow-up time after surgery was 4.5 months. The BCVA, retinal reattachment and MH closure at the last follow-up in the two groups were comparatively observed. U-shaped or V-shaped retina was defined as MH closure. Results: At the last follow-up, retinal reattachments were achieved in all the eyes. In ILM peeling group, 5 eyes (27.8%, 5/18) were completely closed in typeⅠ . In ILM inverted group, 9 eyes (81.8%, 9/11) were completely closed in typeⅠ . There was a statistically significant difference of closure rate in type Ⅰ closure between the two groups (χ²=5.968, P=0.015). The mean logMAR BCVA in ILM peeling group and ILM inverted group were 1.24±0.28 and 0.97±0.39, respectively. The difference of logMAR BCVA between the two groups was statistically significant (t=2.179, P=0.038). Conclusion Vitrectomy combined with single-layer inverted ILM flap covering technique can increase the BCVA and MH closure rates in RRD patients with MH.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the zygomaticotemporal suture (ZTS) maturation, analyze the age distribution patterns of ZTS maturation stages, and investigate the relationship between ZTS and cervical vertebral maturation (CVM). Methods: A total of 261 patients who underwent cone-beam computed tomography (112 males, mean age, 13.1 ± 3.3 years; 149 females, mean age, 13.7 ± 3.1 years) were examined to evaluate the ZTS stages. The ZTS stages were defined based on a modified method from previous studies on zygomaticomaxillary sutures. Differences between groups and correlations between indicators were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test, intraclass coefficient of correlation (ICC), one-way analysis of variance and rank sum test.Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. The diagnostic value of CVM stages in identifying ZTS maturation stages was evaluated using positive likelihood ratios (LRs). Results: A positive relationship was found between the ZTS and CVM stage (r = 0.747, ICC = 0.621, p < 0.01) and between the ZTS stage and chronological age (r = 0.727, ICC = 0.330, p < 0.01). Positive LRs > 10 were found for several cervical stages (CSs), including CS1 and CS2 for the diagnosis of stage B, CS1 to CS3 for the diagnosis of stages B and C, and CS6 for the diagnosis of stages D and E. Conclusions The ZTS maturation stage may be more relevant to the CVM stage than to the chronological age. The CVM stages can be good indicators for clinical decisions regarding maxillary protraction, except for CS4 and CS5.

In recent years,endovascular intervention therapy has gained popularity due to its advantages of minimal trauma and quick recovery,and become an essential method for treating cerebrovascular diseases.As a crucial surgical instrument in interventional therapy,catheters often require precise control of their tips to navigate through tortuous positions.Traditional catheters have shortages of fixed tip shapes,limited proximal torque transmission,and difficulty of manipulation,increasing the risk of complications during interventional procedures and prolonging surgical exposure time.With the rapid development of materials science and engineering,steerable catheter systems have become the spotlight of interventional physicians,making precise"bend control"possible.This article systematically explained the classification of steerable catheter systems,focusing on their application in neurointerventional therapy,and provided an outlook on the future development of steerable catheters.

Objective:To explore the influence of perceived stress on bedtime procrastination in college students,as well as the mediating role of daily ego-depletion and the moderating effect of guilt.Methods:The Per-ceived Stress Scale(PSS-4),State Self-Control Scale(SSCCS)and Bedtime Procrastination Scale(BPS)were used to track the daily perceived stress,ego-depletion and sleep procrastination of 34 college students for 14 days.The 1-1-1 and 2-1-1 multi-layer linear models were constructed by HLM to test the mediating and mod-erating effects.Results:Daily ego-depletion scores played a mediating role in the influence of daily perceived stress scores on daily bedtime procrastination scores(γ20=0.49,P＜0.001),guilt scores moderated the effect of daily ego-depletion scores on daily bedtime procrastination scores(γ11=0.03,P＜0.05).Conclusion:Daily perceived stress could not only directly predict bedtime procrastination on the night in college students,but also indirectly af-fect daily bedtime procrastination through daily ego-depletion.When ego-depletion is high,guilt can reduce college students'bedtime procrastination.

Objective To explore the expression profile of the JAK/STAT pathway in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)and to analyze its impact on the survival prognosis of patients.Methods This study compared differentially expressed genes between AML patients and healthy controls in 2 independent cohorts(n=64,n=121),and these genes were enriched by pathways.The expression levels of JAKs and STATs genes were compared between AML patients and healthy controls.The clinical values of JAK/STAT genes were analyzed using gene expression data,patients'clinical and prognostic information from 2 AML cohorts(n=163,n=403).Results Gene microarray expression results in 26 AML patients and 38 healthy controls showed 1266 genes with significantly differential expression(Padj≤0.05,| log2FC| ≥0.5),of which 426 genes were significantly upregulated in AML patients and 840 genes were significantly downregulated in AML patients.Pathway enrichment of these genes was performed in the JAK/STAT pathway,which was found to be active in AML patients(P＜0.05).Comparison of mi-croarray data from the GSE1159 cohort(n=121)showed AML patients had higher levels of JAK1(P=0.019),J AK2(P=0.047)and STAT4(P＜0.001)gene expression than the healthy controls,and their STAT5A(P=0.028)and STAT6(P=0.022)gene expression levels were lower than those in the healthy controls.Univariate survival analysis identified shorter over-all survival(P=0.02,HR=1.463;P=0.041,HR=1.293)and event-free survival(P=0.01,HR=1.510)in patients with high STAT4 expression than in those with a lower STAT4 expression in the TCGA and GSE6891 cohorts(n=163;n=403).Univa-riate and multifactorial COX analyzes confirmed that high STAT4 expression was an independent prognostic risk factor for AML patients(EFS:P=0.002,HR=1.958;OS:P=0.036,HR=1.556).Conclusion In AML patients,the JAK/STAT path-way is activated,and the STAT4 expression level is higher than that of the healthy controls.High expression of STAT4 suggest poor prognosis,wihich is an independent risk factor for the prognosis of AML patients.

Exosomes are extracellular vesicles secreted by cells with a variety of molecular components, which can play the role of substance transport and signal communication between cells through autocrine and paracrine. Exosomes exist widely in vivo and participate in many physiological and pathological processes, including force-related periodontal inflammation. There are stress receptor cells in the periodontium, which can sense force loading on the tooth. An appropriate amount of mechanical loading can maintain health of the periodontium, while excessive mechanical loading may cause destruction and absorption of the periodontium, leading to periodontal inflammation. This article reviews the role of exosomes in force-related inflammation response, especially in periodontal inflammation response.

Objective To investigate the expressions of transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) and brain natrium peptide (BNP) in patients with diastolic heart failure (DHF),and to explore the correlation between plasma levels of TGF-β1,BNP and TGF-β1/BNP with parameter of diastolic function,diastolic dysfunction and New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification of cardiac function.Methods Hospitalized patients with DHF from October 2016 to November 2017 in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital were selected as subjects.At the same time,the age-and gender-matched non-heart failure hospitalized patients were selected as the control.The diastolic function index (E/e') was measured using cardiac ultrasound spectral Doppler and tissue Doppler methods.The diastolic dysfunction classification was evaluated according to the American Society of Echocardiography guidelines.Cardiac function was evaluated with NYHA classification.The levels of plasma TGF-β1 and BNP were measured with method of enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).The correlation between the indicators was analyzed and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn.Results A total of 186 patients were enrolled,including 114 patients as DHF group [54 males and 60 females,mean age (70.75 ± 11.45) years old] and 72 cases as control group [41 males and 31 females,mean age (68.74 ± 10.86) years old].The levels of TGF-β1 [(77.68 ± 42.31) ng/L] and BNP [(1 153.84 ± 564.96) ng/L] in patients with DHF were significantly higher than those of the control group [(18.76 ± 13.70),(264.07 ± 179.43) ng/L,t =15.62,13.77,P ＜ 0.01].Pearson correlation analysis showed that level of plasma TGF-β1 had a significant liner correlation with index E/e' (r =0.582,P ＜ 0.01),level of plasma BNP had a low-degree liner correlation with index E/e' (r =0.261,P ＜ 0.01),and TGF-β1/BNP had no correlation with index E/e' (r =0.081,P ＞ 0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that the levels of TGF-β1 and BNP were significantly correlated with diastolic dysfunction grading (r =0.473,0.417,P ＜ 0.01),while TGF-β1/BNP had no correlation with diastolic dysfunction grading (r =0.062,P ＞ 0.05).Plasma TGF-β1 and BNP had low-degree correlation with NYHA classification of heart failure (r =0.309,0.326,P ＜ 0.01),TGF-β1/BNP had no correlation with NYHA classification of heart failure (r =0.011,P ＞ 0.05).Logistic analysis showed that both plasma TGF-β1 and BNP were independent predictors of DHF (OR =1.264,2.283,P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).The area under ROC curve (AUC) of BNP for prediction of DHF was 0.937 ± 0.064,and TGF-β1 was 0.597 ± 0.042.AUC areas of BNP and TGF-β1 were significantly different (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions The expressions of plasma TGF-β1 and BNP in patients with DHF are higher than those without DHF.The levels of plasma TGF-β1 and BNP are significantly correlated with index E/e',diastolic dysfunction grading and NYHA classification.Both elevated BNP and TGF-β1 levels are independent predictors of DHF.Both plasma BNP and TGF-β1 have auxiliary diagnostic value on DHF and the diagnostic value of plasma BNP is greater than plasma TGF-β1.
