Objective To investigate the time-dependent changes in glutamate (Glu) and 7-aminobutyric acid ( GABA) release in the rostral ventromedial medulla in a rat model of incisional pain. Methods Healthy male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were used in this study. Twelve rats in which microdialysis cannulae were implanted in the right rostral ventromedial medulla without neurological deficits were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n = 6 each): group A control and group B incisional pain. In group B an 1 cm long incision was made in the plantar surface of right hindpaw under 1.2% isoflurane anesthesia which was maintained for 5 min. Samples of dialysate were collected before incision (T_0 baseline) and at 3 h, 1 d, 2 d and 3 d after incision was made (T_(1-4)) in both groups for determination of Clu and GABA concentrations (by HPLC). Results In group B Glu and GABA concentrations in the dialysate were significantly increased at 1 d (T_2) and 3 h-3 d (T_(1-4)) respectively as compared with the baseline value at T_0 and were significantly higher than those in group A (control group). Conclusion Incisional pain increases the release of Glu and GABA in the rostral ventromedial medulla which might influence the function of descending pain modulation pathway.

Recent epidemiologic data indicate that metfomin has an anti-tumor effect.However,the underlying anti-tumor mechanisms remain unclear.MicroRNAs (miRNAs)can exhibit pro-oncogenic or anti-oncogenic effects by regulating the differentiation and proliferation of cells.In vitro studies show that metformin can regulate the expressions of multiple miRNAs which are closely associated with tumor development,a process possibly relating to the anti-cancer roles of metformin.

Objective To explore the correlation between change of blood lipid and MSCT perfusion imaging in steroid-induced femoral head necrosis in adult rabbits.Methods 20 rabbits 1~1.5 years old in age were divided into two group:16 rabbits in experimental group,8 mg/kg Methylprednisolone was injected twice a week;4 rabbits were used as control group.At 2,4,6,8 week after injection,4 rabbits in experimental group and 1 rabbit in contral group were killed respectively.Before killing the rabbits,the blood lipid was examined and MSCT perfusion imaging was done and the correlation between them was analysed.The index of TRIG,CHOL,Perfusion,PEI,TTP,MTT.All femoral heads were undergone pathological investigation.Results Two weeks after injection,blood lipid began increasing,then blood flow of femoral head decreasing obviously with prolongation of injection;PEI and MTT decrease only 4 weeks after injection.There were a negaitive correlation between blood lipid and blood flow of femoral head.Conclusion There were obviously correlation between the level of increasing blood lipid and blood flow decreasing in steroid-induced avascular necrosis of femoral head in rabbit.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of compound glycyrrhizin plus mizolastine for patients with generalized neurodermatitis(GND)and its influence on patietents' psychology.METHODS:60 patients with GND were randomly assigned to receive compound glycyrrhizin plus mizolastine(treatment group)or mizolasitine alone(control group)for 28 days.The psychological factors were examined before and after treatment using self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),and the curative effects and the psychological changes between two groups were compared.RESULTS:The SAS scores of treatment group and control group were 30.53? 1.50 and 33.20? 1.67,respectively(P

Objective: To compare short-term efficacy of enhanced phase-I cardiac rehabilitation and ordinary phase-Ⅰ cardiac rehabilitation in patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods: A total of 254 patients received CABG in our hospital from 2015-07 to 2015-10 were enrolled including 196 male and 58 female at the mean age of (59.92±7.80) years. Relevant health education was conducted and echocardiography, emotion, grip strength were assessed before operation. Based on personal aspiration, the patients were assigned to 2 groups at the 1st day after CABG: Enhanced phase-I cardiac rehabilitation (Enhanced) group, the patients received every day one to one training by physical therapist for 7 days and Ordinary phase-I cardiac rehabilitation (Ordinary) group, the patients received unified instruction by physical therapist prior operation. Relevant parameters were compared between 2 groups at 1 week post-operation which were mainly focused on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), emotional assessment as health questionnaire 9-items (PHQ-9), generalized anxiety disorder 7-items (GAD-7) and grip strength. Results: Before operation: LVEF, PHQ-9 scores, GAD-7 scores and grip strength were similar between 2 groups.1 week post-operation: compared with Ordinary group, Enhanced group had the higher LVEF (62.88±5.21) % vs (59.00±9.83) %, P<0.05; Enhanced group showed slightly lower PHQ-9, GAD-7 scores and slightly higher grip strength without statistic meaning. Conclusion: Enhanced phase-I cardiac rehabilitation presented slight superiority as improved LVEF which implied that even 1 week specific training may benefit CABG patients.

Medical psychology master's degree graduate student course mainly includes basic cour-ses, professional courses and psychological skills training, professional practice skills learning and scientific research quality training. Due to the constraints of discipline development starting late, teachers being rela-tively weak and other objective factors, in curriculum setting, there exist problems of unclear objectives, confusing the primary with secondary, unclear standard, lacking principles, and in particular, there are obvious deficiencies in the training and cultivation of students' ! professional skills . Based on the above objective problems, we made preliminary discussion on the training objectives, the main problems, curricu-lum setting, assessment standards and principles to follow, in order to achieve the purpose of cultivating high-level application-oriented talents through curriculum design and teaching practice.

Objective To investigate the association of osteoporosis and coronary artery calcification in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods A total of 82 elderly T2DM patients underwent dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scanning (DXA) of lumbar spine and femur neck for getting bone mineral density (BMD),and dual-source computed tomography (DSCT) of coronary artery for calculating calcification score and total calcification score (TCS).All subjects were divided into two groups:osteoporosis group and non-osteoporosis group.The levels of serum calcium (Ca),parathyrin (PTH),phosphorus (P),alkaline phosphatase (AKP),triglyceride (TG),total cholesterol (TC),high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C),low density lipoproteincholesterol (LDL-C) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) were detected.Results Compared with non-osteoporosis group,the levels of serum Ca,PTH and TCS were higher [(2.32± 0.15)mmol/L vs.(2.04±0.20) mmol/L;(5.64±1.97) pmol/L vs.(5.01±1.93) pmol/L;(374.4±433.5) scores vs.(242.5±224.8) scores,t=5.790,5.331 and 2.248,all P<0.05] in osteoporosis group.Correlation analysis showed TCS was negatively associated with BMD of L2-4 and femur neck,while was positively associated with serum Ca and PTH (r=0.310,0.246,0.290,0.284 and 0.324,0.575 all P<0.05).Conclusions Osteoporosis is associated with coronary atherosclerosis.TCS could be considered as an index for judging the relationship between osteoporosis and coronary atherosclerosis.

Effect of ginsenoside total saponin (GTS) on the regulation of P450 of livers of rats after γ-ray irradiation was studied. Rats were irradiated by the ⁶⁰Coγ-ray for one-time dose of 5.5 Gy, dose rate of 117.1-119.2 cGy. The cocktail probe, qPCR and Western blot were used to detect expression of enzymatic activites, mRNA and protein of rats. Contrasted with blank group, expression of CYP1A2, 2B1, 2E1, 3A4 of irradiation group showed a up-regulated (P < 0.05). Contrasted with irradiation group, exprression of CYP1A2, 2B1, 2E1, 3A4 of GTS group showed a downward trend. GTS had negative agonistic action against expression of P450 of rats by irradiatied.
