Objective To observe the changes of learning and memory ability and the expression of GRP8,ATF4 and CHOP in the frontal lobe neurons of rats after isoflurane anesthesia.Methods Male SD aged rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 15 in each group.Rats in ISO group received 1.5% isoflurane 2 h,SAL group received intraperitoneal injection Salubrinal(1 mg/kg),ISO+SAL group received 1.5% 2 h after intraperitoneal injection Salubrinal(1 mg/kg),C group only inhaled 30% air and oxygen mixture.Morris water maze (MWM) test was performed 24 hours after isoflurane anesthesia,and then the left frontal lobe of rats was collected,gene transcription and protein expression changes of 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein(GRP78),activating transcription factor 4(ATF4),C/EBP homologous protein(CHOP) were evaluated by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and immunofluorescence.Results Compared with the C group,the latent time of ISO group was significantly prolonged(ISO group(19.10±2.98)s vs C group (10.54±2.05)s,P<0.05);the number of times passing through the target platform of ISO group was decreased significantly(ISO group (6.78±1.47) vs Cgroup (9.03±1.69),P<0.05);protein expression level of GRP78 was significantly increased in group ISO (ISO group (965.8±86.5) vs C group(247.5±46.3),P<0.05);protein expression level of ATF4 was significantly increased in group ISO(ISO group (470±69.4) vs C group (275.4±56.3),P<0.05) protein expression level of CHOP was significantly increased in group ISO(ISO group (618.7±83.3) vs C group(174.5±71.2),P<0.05).The transcription trends of GRP78,ATF4,CHOP were consistent with their protein expression.Conclusion The decrease of short-term memory ability after isoflurane anesthesia may be related to the activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway in frontal lobe neurons.

Integration of healthcare and prevention is key path to achieving the pattern of " macro healthcare, macro health". However, it is hard at present to fully integrate healthcare and prevention in China, mostly due to the lack of effective incentive compatibility strategies. Based on the incentive compatibility theory, this study proposed a multi-level principal-agent chain of healthcare and prevention integration. Taking the incentive transmission among stakeholders in the principal-agent chain as the analysis framework, the dilemma and causes of incentive incompatibility of healthcare and prevention integration were studied.Combined with the proctice of healthcare and prevention integration in Sanming city, the incentive compatibility strategies of healthcare and prevention integration were proposed at the level of government, medical institutions, medical staff, public health staff and residents. These strategies refer to coordinating the use of medical insurance funds and public health funds, strengthening organization management as well as assessment and incentive, rewarding health promotion management points, and setting up health science popularization teams.

Objective:To observe the efficacy of trigeminal nerve microvascular decompression in the treatment of elderly trigeminal neuralgia.Methods:A total of 96 elderly patients with trigeminal neuralgia admitted to our hospital from January 2015 to June 2016 were selected.48 patients were treated with percutaneous trigeminal semilunar ganglion radiofrequency thermocoagulation as a control group, and the other 48 patients were treated with trigeminal nerve microvascular decompression as the observation group.Efficacy indicators of post-operative pain severity scores, severity scores of post-operative complications, a sum of two categories of severity scores, which were compared between the two groups at one month and at 1, 3, 5 years after surgery.Results:One month after the operation, there was no significant differences in pain severity score, surgical complications severity scores, and a sum of two categories severity scores between the two groups of patients(all P>0.05). In the observation group versus the control group, pain severity scores were[(0.55±0.39)scores versus(0.94±0.61)scores, t=7.572, P=0.011 at 1 year after operation], [(0.81±0.61)versus(1.19±0.83)scores, t=7.513, P=0.012 at 3 years after operation]and[(1.13±0.65)and(1.55±0.91)scores, t=7.837, P=0.010 at 5 years after operation]respectively, showing more efficacy in observation group.In the observation group versus the control group, severity scores of surgical complications were[(0.39±0.28)and(0.67±0.49)scores, t=7.290, P=0.014, at 1 year after operation], [(0.65±0.37)and(0.94±0.55)scores, t=7.353, P=0.013 at 3 years after operation]and[(0.80±0.35)and(1.13±0.64)scores, t=7.475, P=0.012 at 5 years after operation], respectively, showing more efficacy in observation group.In the observation group versus the control group, overall efficacy from a sum of the two categories of severity scores were[(0.72±0.35)and(1.33±0.56)scorets, t=7.701, P=0.009 at 1 year after operation], [(1.21±0.49)and(1.78±0.70)scores, t=7.580, P=0.011 at 3 years after operation]and[(1.46±0.55)and(2.24±1.03)scores, t=8.026, P=0.007 at 5 years after operation], respectively, showing more efficacy in observation group.Overall, above three severity scores were lower than in the observation group than in the control group(all P<0.05). Conclusions:For elderly patients with trigeminal neuralgia, trigeminal nerve microvascular decompression has definite efficacy, long duration of pain relief, low incidence of surgical complications, and is safe and reliable, which is worthy of clinical application.
