Objective To evaluate the changes in the activity of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) in the distal cerebrospinal fluid contacting neurons (CSF-CNs) in the mid-brain of morphine dependent rats.Methods Forty-eight male adult Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 230-270 g,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =24 each) using a random number table:control group (group A) and morphine dependence group (group B).Morphine dependence was induced by increasing doses of subautaneous morphine for 5 consecutive days.The initial dose of morphine was 10 mg/kg twice a day and was increased by 10 mg/kg everyday until 50 mg/kg on 5th dav.The equal volume of normal saline was injected subcutaneously instead of morphine in group A.On 3rd day after morphine dependence was induced,the distal CSF-CNs in the mid-brain was labeled with 30％ cholera toxin subunit B and horseradish peroxidase compound (CB-HRP) 3 μl injected in the lateral cerebral ventricle in the morning.At 4 h after the last injection of morphine,the segments in which CSF-CNs were located were removed,and CB-HRP positive neurons,phosphor-ERK5 (p-ERK5) positive neurons and CB-HRP/p-ERK5 positive neurons were counted.Results Compared with group A,the number of p-ERK5 and CB-HRP/p-ERK5 positive neurons in the mid-brain was significantly increased (P ＜ 0.05),and no significant change was found in CB-HRP positive neurons in group B (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion The enhanced activity of ERK5 in the distal CSFCNs in the mid-brain may contribute to the development of morphine dependence in rats.

BACKGROUND:In recent years, increasing research emphasizes the puncture position of the foramen ovale in skul , but most of the positin methods require a higher personal experience of surgeons and lack of individualized quantitative parameters. OBJECTIVE:To establish a visualized digital model of the foramen ovale in skul , explore the reasonable puncture path and puncture depth of percutaneous treatment of foramen ovale puncture for trigeminal neuralgia, and develop the individualized treatment of trigeminal neuralgia. METHODS:Head CT images from healthy adult male volunteers were obtained and were input into three-dimensional reconstruction software MIMICS 10.01, the three-dimensional visualized models of the skul and skin were established. Using the models, the puncture path of the foramen ovale was designed and the preliminary model of the puncture locator was plotted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The three-dimensional visualized digital model of the foramen ovale puncture path was established with CT scan images by using MIMICS software, which provides reliable anatomical data for clinical teaching and lays the groundwork for the simulation of puncture surgery. On the three-dimensional models, the“needle points”,“target points”, and“midpoint”were determined, and the triangle consisted of the three points was regarded as“positioning plane”. Using these parameters, the positioning instrument is characterized by simple structure, convenient operation, high positioning precision and short period of exposure to radiation, it simulates the foramen ovale puncture needle depth and needle direction in a precise and individualized manner.

Objective To assess the prevalence of urogenital infection with and genotype distribution of C.trachomatis among female sex workers (FSWs) from different entertainment venues in Wuzhou and Hezhou cities of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.Methods A total of 810 FSWs were recruited to this study by convenience sampling from entertainment venues in Wuzhou and Hezhou cities of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from July 2009 to September 2010.Based on the venues where they solicited clients,the FSWs were classified into three tiers,i.e.,high-tier,middle-tier and low-tier.Cervical swabs were collected from all of these subjects followed by detection of C.trachomatis with the Amplicor PCR test kit.Then,DNA was extracted from C.trachomatis-positive specimens and subjected to nested PCR assay targeting the ompA gene followed by bidirectional sequencing.The genotype of C.trachomatis was determined according to the sequence of ompA gene.Chi-square test was conducted to compare the urogenital infection rate and genotype distribution of C.trachomatis between different tiers of FSWs.Results Among the 805 FSWs,the prevalence rate of urogenital C.trachomatis infection was 20.0％ (161/805).Chi-square test showed that the prevalence rate of urogenital C.trachomatis infection was significantly lower in high-and middle-tier FSWs than in low-tier FSWs (x2 =3.97,5.95,respectively,both P ＜ 0.05).Nine genotypes of C.trachomatis were identified in these FSWs,with serotype F as the most prevalent genotype (39/154,25.3％).Low-tier FSWs showed a higher frequency of genotype E (x2 =5.02,P ＜ 0.05) but a lower frequency of genotype K (Fisher's Exact test,P =0.048) compared with middle-tier FSWs.Conclusions Low-tier FSWs show a high rate of urogenital infection with C.trachomatis,with serotype E as the prevalent type.Since C.trachomatis serovar E-infected patients are likely to be missed by symptom-based screening and preventive strategies,standardized screening for and efficient treatment of urogenital C.trachomatis infection should be enhanced among low-tier FSWs for the prevention of C.trachomatis transmission.
