This study was undertaken to examine ncNOS IR in bladder after spinal cord injury (SCI). In the meantime, we determine rats bladder ncNOS IR following intravesical instillation of capsaicin after SCI. Adult Sprague Dawley rats and guinea pigs were randomly divided into normal group, sham injury group, spinal cord injury group (4～5weeks after T 8～9 transection). A dose of 1mmol/L intravesical capsaicin was instilled in a part of SCI rats. Bladders of all animals were divided into three tissue pieces: bladder base, bladder body and bladder dome,in which the distribution of ncNOS IR was examined. Spinal transection induced a significant ncNOS IR increase in guinea pig bladder base. In rats, the quantity of ncNOS IR did not differ between the two groups. Instillation of intravesical capsaicin can cause significant up regulation of rat bladder ncNOS IR after SCI. The increase of ncNOS IR in SCI animals bladder indicates that NO may play an important role in the regulation of micturition reflex after SCI. In SCI rats, ncNOS IR can significantly be up regulated by intravesical capsaicin instillation, suggesting that NO may act as a factor in the action of capsaicin.

Objective: To develop a computer game addiction inventory (CGAI) for Chinese college students. Methods:A primary inventory made by the authors was applied to 477 college students from 8 universities in Beijing for exploratory factor analysis, and then to 405 college students for confirmatory factor analysis. Results: After exploratory factor analysis, a questionnaire consisted of 33 items were established, which had four factors: dependence and addict behavior, emotion arousal, functional impairment, and shame and un-satisfaction. These four factors could explain 55.1 of the total variance, were confirmed by confirmatory factor analysis (?~2/df=2.304; IFI=0.885; CFI=0.884; NFI=0.813; RSMEA=0.057). The internal consistency of the questionnaire was good (r=0.77~0.94), the test-retest reliability was 0.907. Criteria validity shown by higher scores in addiction group than normal control was also satisfying. Conclusion: The CGAI has good psychometric features and could be applied to college students.

Abstract: This retrospective analysis examines the diagnosis and treatment of a case of chronic liver disease infected with Vibrio vulnificus, admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University on August 8, 2023. The patient, a 34-year-old male fisherman, had chronic viral hepatitis B. He sustained a leg abrasion while fishing on August 3, and developed fever and continuous swelling pain in both lower limbs, more severe in the left limb, on the night of the injury. On the fourth day of the disease, he went to the local hospital where he received antibiotic treatment and was transferred to the First Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical College on August 8. Upon admission, the patient exhibited low blood pressure, high lower limb skin temperature, poor peripheral blood transport, visible scab, and signs of infectious shock. Within 12 hours of admission, an abscess incision and drainage procedure was performed on his left calf, along with negative pressure wound therapy, and tissue samples from the infected left lower limb were sent for microbial culture.The pathogen culture indicated a Vibrio vulnificus infection, and the histopathology results confirmed necrotizing fasciitis. Treatment included meropenem combined with vancomycin for infection control, maintenance of blood pressure and electrolyte balance, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate for antiviral therapy, and polyene phosphatidylcholine capsules for liver protection based on the drug sensitivity results. Additionally, levofloxacin and cefotaxime were administered for infection control and debridement was performed based on wound conditions. After 17 days of hospitalization, the infection was substantially controlled, but the liver function enzyme was still higher than the normal level, and the wound still had blood and exudation. The patient and his family members requested discharge; however, due to poor wound healing, he was readmitted on September 11, 2023, receiving antiviral and liver preservation treatment. On the fifth day,the secretion culture identified a co-infection with Corynebacterium striatum and Providencia stuartii infection. Corynebacterium striatum was subsequently reported as multidrug-resistant, prompting an immediate switch to sensitive antibiotics and supportive care. Sixteen days after readmission, the patient's general condition improved, but the liver function enzyme levels were still higher than normal, so he was discharged. Four months after discharge, a follow-up phone call revealed that the patient had actively pursued antiviral treatment and abstained from alcohol, showing reasonable wound recovery. The patient's case, with a typical exposure history and clinical manifestations, matches the characteristics of septic shock and necrotizing fasciitis caused by V. vulnificus. Clinically, it is crucial todiagnose and treat V. vulnificus infection early according to its pathological characteristics and clinical characteristics to improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum cystain C,urinary neutrophil gelatinase?associated lipocalin(NGAL),uri?nary kidney injury molecule?1(KIM?1)and preeclampsia,and explore the value in predicting preeclampsia and early kidney damage. Methods A total of 30 cases of pregnant women with severe preeclampsia,30 cases of mild preeclampsia and 60 cases of healthy pregnant women admitted in the Second Hospital of Jilin University from October 2014 to July 2015 were enrolled for the study. ELISA was performed to check urinary KIM?1 and urinary NGAL,and the serum cystatin C was detected by immune turbidity method. Results KIM?1,NGAL,serum cystatin C in the preeclampsia were significantly higher than the normal control group(P<0.05). In addition,with the development of their concentrations,the progression of pre?eclampsia gradually rise;BMI,e?GFR,urine protein/creatinine ratio,KIM?1,serum scystatin C and NGAL are the risk factors for preeclampsia;uKIM?1,serum scystatin C and NGAL and combined predictors of preeclampsia are taken as the early indicators of renal injury,which sensitivity are separately 83.3%,75%,88.9%,96.8%;specificity are respectively 72.7%,70%,75.6%,86.4%. Conclusion KIM?1,serum scystatin C and NGAL may reflect the progression of renal injury in preeclampsia .Combined predictors have a higher predictive value in the early renal injury of the preeclampsia.

Objective To explore the relationship between parent hostility and adolescent externalizing behavior problems and the mediating role of parenting.Methods The cross-sectional data of 4474 adolescent aged 10-21 of the National Survey of Adolescent Mental Health in China (2008) was used.Adolescents reported their externalizing problems and parents' parenting.Parents reported their hostile behaviors.Results ① Parent hostility((9.18 ± 3.56),(8.94 ± 3.18)) significantly correlated with monitoring,inductive reasoning,harshness of parenting(father(3.39 ± 1.16),(3.21 ± 1.02),(1.39 ± 0.62) respectively,r =-0.108 ～ 0.489,P ＜ 0.01 ;mother (3.96 ± 0.97),(3.38 ± 0.96),(1.37 ± 0.60) respectively,r =-0.148 ～ 0.468,P ＜ 0.01) ; and both parent hostility and parenting were significantly associated with adolescent externalizing problems (0.23 ± 0.21) (r =-0.308 ～ 0.577,P ＜ 0.01).②Parental monitoring,inductive reasoning and harshness discipline partially mediated the relations between parent hostility and adolescent externalizing problems (Z =6.12,5.10,6.36,P ＜ 0.01 ; Z =5.86,6.97,11.84,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion Parenting partially mediated the effect between parent hostility and adolescent externalizing problems.
