Objective To study the preventive and therapeufic effect of sheep bone collagen peptide (SBCP) on osteoporosis of ovariectomized rats. Method Thirty-two 3.5 mon unmated SD female rats were randomly divided into 4 groups by weight:blank group (sham operation), control group (ovariectomized), sample 1 group (ovariectomized and fed freeze drying SBCP) and sample 2 group (ovariectomized and fed spray drying SBCP). Seven days after ovariectomy,the blank group and ovariectomized group were given distilled water (1 ml/100 g?d), the sample 1 and sample 2 group were given sample 1 and sample 2 (1000mg/kg.d). Body weight, feed efficiency, serum bone metabolizing index and bone density (BD), length and diameter of femur were measured 10 w later. Results The alkaline phosphatase (ALP) of ovariectomized or control group was significantly increased, but the increase was restrained in sample 1 and sample 2 group. The BGP of ovariectomized group was significantly higher than that of the blank group, and the BGP of sample 1 and sample 2 group was lower than that of the ovariectomized group, nearly equal to the blank group. The BD of ovariectomized group was declined significantly, but that of sample 1 and sample 2 group was declined slowly. The BD of sample 2 group washigher than that of ovariedomized group, even similar to the blank group. The length and diameter of femur in the sample groups were larger than those of ovariectomized group. The effect of sample 1 and sample 2 on serum bone metabolism indices and femur size was not significantly different. Conclusion Sheep bone collagen polypeptide can reduce the resorption of bone, promote bone growth, and also reduce postmenopausal osteoporosis effectively. The different drying methods have no difference in the anti-osteoporosis effect.

Objective Decline in cognitive function caused by diabetes has become a research hotpots.The article aims to explore the relationship between serums regulated upon activation normal T cell expressed and secreted(RANTES) and cognitive dysfunction of newly diognosed T2DM patients, and provide a new way of prevention and treatment for newly diagnosed T2DM patients with cognitive dysfunction.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the general information and clinical biochemical indexes of the 123 patients who were first diagnosed of T2DM from March 2015 to September 2016 in Tangshan Worker''s Hospital.The levels of serum RANTES were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the cognitive function of all patients was assessed by Mini-mental State Examinatlon(MMSE)and Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsyehologic Status(RBANS).Finally, newly diognosed T2DM patients were divided into T2DM non-cognitive disorder group and T2DM cognitive disorder group according to the MMSE score.We analyzed whether there are differences among general information,serum RANTES level and RBANS cognitive function score of two group patients.The correlations of RANTES with general information and cognitive scores were analyzed by single factor correlation and multiple stepwise regression analysis.Results ①The level of serum RANTESin T2DM cognitive disorder group[(2.62±0.37)mmol/L] was significantly higher compared to that in T2DM noncognitive disorder group[(2.29±0.36)mmol/L], and there was significant difference(P<0.001).②The instant memory,visual span,attention,delayed memory score and RBANS score of T2DM cognitive disorder group were(70.90±14.71)、(92.90±15.50)、(87.80±16.45)、(88.02±14.28)、(82.92±11.07), which were significant declined compared to those of T2DM non-cognitive disorder group [(85.28±13.97),(104.18±12.69),(101.51±12.94),(96.42±10.30),(95.84±9.94)], and there was significant difference (P≤0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups′ verbal function score [(96.08±7.87),(99.31±9.83)] (P=0.056).③The RANTES was negatively correlated with the total score of instant memory, visual span, verbal function, delayed memory score and RBANS score in T2DM patients(the valuue of r were-3.48、-2.35、-2.01、-3.02、-4.17).Conclusion There was a significant correlation between serum RANTES level and cognitive dysfunction, and elevated serum RANTES level could be used as an important indicator for monitoring newly diognosed T2DM patients with cognitive dysfunction.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of cisplatin on outward delayed rectifier potassium currents (IKDR currents) in isolated spiral ganglion neurons cells and to analyze possible intracellular mechanism of this effects by using the patch-clamp technique. METHOD: The IKDR was recorded and measured before and after the application of 10 micromol/L cisplatin in external solution by using the whole cell patch-clamp technique. RESULT: Cisplatin could inhibit SGNs voltage-dependent potassium channels, the zero current potential and reversal potential of IKDR currents were both shift to polarizing directions by 10 micromol/L cisplatin. Moreover, the maximal magnitude of IKDR currents were decreased by 23.3% when giving the test pulse at +50 mV. Cisplatin's inhibition on IKDR has dose-dependence with cisplatin-concentration in extracellular fluid and the currents recovered completely after cisplatin being washed out. CONCLUSION This research explained the toxic mechanism of cisplatin through its action on keeping from spiral ganglion neuron's IKDR from the electrophysiological aspect and set a foundation for further research.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD)symptoms in middle school students after Wenchuan earthquake.Methods:The PTSD Checklist-Civilian version( PCL-C),which included three symptom groups(A,B,and C),was used to assess the PTSD symptoms in 1960 middle school students in the disaster region through self-questionnaire.Results:(1)The general positive rate of PTSD symptoms was 78.3%,and that of B group was the highest(68.9%).(2)The rates of general PTSD and three symptom groups of PTSD were higher in girls,high grade students,minority groups,rural students,injured in earthquake and those who lost family property than in boys,low grade students,the Han nationality,urban students,not injured in earthquake and those who did not lost family property[such as,the general positive rate of PTSD symptoms:girls 82.2%,boys 73.9%,P<0.05].(3)The rates of severe PTSD symptoms in girls and rural students were higher than that in boys and urban students(27.9% vs.19.9%,26.7% vs.21.4%,Ps<0.05).Conclusions:PTSD symptoms are common among middle school students in earthquake region.Targeted measures should be taken to protect middle school students from PTSD in earthquake region.

Objective:To explore the change trend of disease burden in laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in China from 1990 to 2019.Methods:Based on data from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study database, the changes of death cases, mortality, disability adjusted life years (DALY) and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking among people with different gender and age in China from 1990 to 2019 were analyzed. Joinpoint software was used to evaluate the annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) of attributable mortality and DALY rate. The change trend of laryngeal cancer death attributable to smoking and DALY was analyzed.Results:From 1990 to 2019, the mortality rate and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in China showed an overall upward trend (AAPC of mortality was 1.6%, P < 0.05;AAPC of DALY rate was 1.26%, P < 0.05). In 2019, 75.64% of laryngeal cancer deaths in China were attributable to smoking, with 15 336 attributable deaths, 1.08/100 000 attributable mortality rates, 376 143 person-year attributable DALY and 26.45/100 000 attributable DALY rates, respectively. The population attributable fraction, death number, mortality rate, DALY and DALY rate of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking in males were higher than those in females. In China, the number of laryngeal cancer deaths and DALY attributable to smoking peaked in the age group of 50-69 years old, and the attributable mortality and DALY rate peaked in the age group of ≥70 years old. Conclusions:The disease burden of laryngeal cancer attributable to smoking is high in China from 1990 to 2019, and there are differences in gender and age.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological and radiological features of benign fibro-osseous lesion (BFOL). Methods: Sixty-five cases of craniofacial BFOL, eight cases of peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) and one case of low-grade central osteosarcoma diagnosed at Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital between January 2010 and March 2019 were collected. The clinicopathologic features, hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical (IHC) staining and radiographic features were analyzed. MDM2 gene amplification was detected by FISH in difficult borderline cases. Results: This cohort of BFOLs included 50 cases of fibrous dysplasia (FD), 12 cases of ossifying fibroma (OF), and three cases of juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (JPOF). The average ages of patients with FD,OF and JPOF were 31.7, 39.2 and 26.0 years respectively. The male to female ratio was 1.0∶1.8.The average age of POF was 47.0 years, with male to female ratio of 1∶7. Patient of low-grade central osteosarcoma was a 48-year-old man. Twenty-seven cases of FD were located in the jaw, and 23 cases were in other craniofacial bones. Nine cases of OF were located in the jaw, and three cases were in the nasal cavity. Two cases of JPOF were in the nasal sinus, and one was in the jaw. All POF were located in the gingiva, and low-grade central osteosarcoma was located in the mandible. The imaging features of FD were luffa-like or ground-glass like signal shadows with poorly defined borders with expansion. OF had clear borders or sclerosing margins. Both JOF and low-grade central osteosarcoma were expansile intraosseously and with focally invasive nodular masses with ground-glass like signal shadows; and POF showed soft tissue mass with bone formation. Histological features of BFOLs showed mixed fibrous and irregular osteoid lesions. FD had no clear relationship with the host bone and no osteoblasts surrounded the bone trabeculae. Osteoblasts rimming was found in OF, and the boundaries of the host bone were clear. JPOF and low-grade central osteosarcoma infiltrated the host bone focally, and the latter showed mild cellular atypia. MDM2 amplification was detected in low-grade central osteosarcoma. Conclusions BFOLs are a group of fibro-osseous lesions with similar morphology in the head and neck and face, but their clinical features and prognosis are different; and their imaging and histological characteristics are also slightly different. Attentions should be given to the combination of clinical, imaging and pathologic features of BFOLs, especially the differential diagnosis between BFOLs and low-grade central osteosarcoma. Molecular detection could be used to assist the diagnosis in difficult cases.
