Sleep disorders caused by neuropathic pain（NP）are a type of neurological disorder with difficulties in treatment， which greatly affects the quality of life of patients.Studies have shown that NP-related brain regions are involved in the regulation of sleep disorders， such as the thalamus，the hypothalamus， and the basal forebrain and the two diseases are closely associated with each other in terms of central and peripheral pathogeneses， but there is still a lack of sufficient research. This article reviews the main pathogenesis and therapeutic drugs for sleep disorders caused by NP in recent years， in order to provide a reference for the clinical search for effective drugs.

AIM:To investigate the regulatory ef-fects and mechanisms of glycyrrhizin on morphine-induced neurotoxicity.METHODS:A neurotoxicity model was established by intracerebroventricular injection of morphine.Glycyrrhizin was adminis-tered intraperitoneally for 5 and 10 days.Pathologi-cal observation,protein immunoblotting,cell viabil-ity,apoptosis,and primary neuron differentiation were assessed.RESULTS:After morphine treat-ment,neuronal loss,decreased cell viability,in-creased apoptosis,axonal breakage,and cell shrink-age were observed in cortical tissue.Glycyrrhizin administration significantly improved cell viability,and axonal,dendritic,and cell body structures gradually became intact,with reduced apoptosis.The phosphorylation levels of protein Akt at posi-tion 473 and PKA at position 197 decreased,while autophagy-related proteins Beclin and LC3B1/2 re-mained unchanged.CONCLUSION:Glycyrrhizin sig-nificantly inhibits morphine-induced neuronal dif-ferentiation suppression and neuronal apoptosis,which may be mediated through the synergistic ef-fects of glycyrrhizin and morphine on the Akt path-way.

Objective To explore the possibility of rhabdomyolysis and related organ damage in new recruits training in high temperature and high humidity environment by comparing the effects of different training environments on the laboratory indicators and electrocardiogram.Methods A total of 250 new recruits from a unit in Beijing and another 250 ones from a unit in Hainan were recruited and assigned into conventional environment group and high temperature and high humidity environment group,respectively.All of them were male,with an average age of 21.36±2.59 years.Before and in 4 weeks after training in the same subjects,their general information,blood and urine indicators,and electrocardiogram were collected.All data were statistically analyzed.Results The incidences of inflammatory reaction,myocardial injury,muscle injury,liver injury,and kidney injury were 45.76％,3.39％,12.71％,25.42％,and 12.71％,respectively,in the high temperature and high humidity environment group,which were all significantly higher than those in the conventional environment group(P＜0.05).The former group had an incidence rate of 6.78％,5.93％,8.47％,6.78％,and 2.54％,respectively,in sinus bradycardia,atrial premature beats,unspecific ST-T changes,left ventricular hypertension and short PR interval,and all of the rates were higher than those of the conventional environment group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The incidences of inflammatory reaction,myocardial injury,muscle injury,liver injury,kidney injury,and ECG abnormalities are more common in new recruits after military training in high temperature and high humidity environment.

OBJECTIVE:To study the mechanism of action of grape seed proanthocynidins extract(GSPE)in treating acetic acid-induced colitis gravis in rats.METHODS:Rats model with acetic acid-induced colitis was built,the animals were di-vided into normal control group,model group,positive control group and GSPE group(which were subdivided into low,medium and high dose subgroups by intragastric administration).On the8th day of administration of drugs,the changes of myeloperoxidase(MPO),superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)and malonaldehyde(MDA)in colonic tissue were detected,respectively.RESULTS:The model group had a significantly higher level of MPO content than did the normal control group(P
