Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of targeted epidural space block combined with acupotomy in the treatment for lumbar disc herniation(LDH)under the monitor of X-ray image,and to analyze the safety of its operation.Methods:A total of 60 LDH patients who admitted to Department of Pain,Jiangyin Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from January 2022 to September 2023 were selected,and they were randomly divided into observation group and control group as random number table,with 30 cases in each group.The observation group adopted targeted epidural space block combined with acupotomy under monitor with X-ray for anterior epidural space,while the control group adopted conventionally epidural block,all of which were treated only once.The Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)scores and Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)scores of two groups before treatment and at the 3rd day,7th day and 30th day after treatment were compared.At the 30th day after treatment,the curative effects of two groups were evaluated according to ODI scores,at the same time,the safe distance between puncture and acupotomy in patients of observation group was analyzed.Results:The effective rates of the treatment of observation group and control group were respectively 96.67%and 70%,and the difference of that between the two groups was statistically significant(x2=7.680,P<0.05).The VAS scores of the two groups at the 3rd day,7th day and 30th day after treatment were lower than those before treatment,and the observation group(2.30±0.87),(1.53±0.86)and(1.47±0.81)were lower than the control group(4.43±0.89),(2.23±0.89)and(4.27±0.82),the difference was statistically significant(t=9.374,3.098,13.306,P<0.05).The ODI scores of the two groups were at the 3rd day,7th day and 30th day after treatment were lower than those before treatment,and the differences of them between two groups were statistically significant(t=7.112,10.690,10.151,P<0.05).In 30 patients of observation group,the gap between the dural sac and the inner edge of facet joint on the affected side was larger than 4.0mm in 25 cases,and all of them can safely conduct puncture with targeting.Conclusion:The targeted epidural space block combined with acupotomy by adopting monitor with X-ray image can effectively improve the symptom of pain,and activities of daily life of LDH patients,which treatment is safe and effective.

ObjectiveTo investigate the intervention effects and mechanisms of the flavonoid hyperoside （Hyp） on lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-induced inflammation in the zebrafish model. MethodsZebrafish larvae were either microinjected with 0.5 g·L^-1 LPS or immersed in 1 g·L^-1 LPS for the modeling of inflammation. The larvae were then treated with Hyp at 25， 50， and 100 mg·L^-1 through immersion for four consecutive days. The inflammatory phenotypes were assessed by analyzing the mortality rate， malformation rate， body length， and yolk sac area ratio. Behavioral tests were conducted to evaluate the inflammatory stress responses， and macrophage migration was observed by fluorescence microscopy. Additionally， the mRNA levels of inflammation-related genes， including interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， chemokine C-C motif ligand 2 （CCL2）， chemokine C-X3-C motif receptor 1 （CX3CR1）， chemokine C-C motif receptor 2 （CCR2）， and genes associated with the Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor-kappa B （NF-κB） signaling pathway， were measured by Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR）. ResultsCompared with the pure water injection group， the model group exhibited increased mortality， malformation rates and yolk sac area ratio （P0.01）， reduced body length （P0.01）， increased total swimming distance and high-speed swimming duration （P0.01）， and up-regulated mRNA levels of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB， IL-1β， IL-6， CCL2， CX3CR1， and CCR2 （P0.01）. Hyp at low， medium and high doses， as well as aspirin， reduced the mortality and malformation rates （P0.05，P0.01）， increased the body length （P0.05，P0.01）， decreased the yolk sac area ratio （P0.01）， reduced the high-speed swimming duration （P0.01）， and down-regulated the mRNA levels of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB， IL-1β， IL-6， CCL2， CX3CR1， and CCR2 （P0.05，P0.01） compared with the model group. ConclusionHyp may modulate the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway to ameliorate inflammatory phenotypes and alleviate stress conditions in zebrafish， thereby exerting the anti-inflammatory effect.

Objective To explore the correlation between blood biochemical indexes and blood pressure levels among college students in Kunming City.Methods In November 2021,a cluster sampling method was used to survey 4,781 college students at a university in Yunnan Province.Data collected included height,weight and blood pressure,and blood samples were collected for blood biochemical testing.The Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to compare the distribution differences of hypertension among college students with different demographic characteristics,while a generalized linear model was used to analyze the correlation between blood biochemical indicators and blood pressure levels.Results The prevalence rate of hypertension among college students was 8.45%(404/4 781).After adjusting confounding variables,blood glucose(GLU,β=1.48,95%CI:0.75～2.20)and serum Total Protein(TP,β=0.25,95%CI:0.19～0.32)were found to be correlated with systolic blood pressure(SBP)levels(all P<0.05);blood glucose(GLU,β=1.25,95%CI:0.64～1.86)and serum total protein(TP,β=0.28,95%CI:0.23～0.34)were correlated with diastolic blood pressure(DBP)level(P<0.05).Stratified group analysis by sex showed that,after controlling for confounding factors,TP(β=0.32,95%CI:0.18～0.45)was correlated with SBP levels in male students;TP(β=0.32,95%CI:0.21～0.43)was correlated with DBP levels in male students(P<0.05).GLU(β=2.18,95%CI:1.29～3.07)and TP(β=0.23,95%CI:0.15～0.31)were correlated with SBP levels in female students;GLU(β=1.48,95%CI:0.73～2.24)and TP(β=0.26,95%CI:0.20～0.33)were correlated with DBP levels in female students(all P<0.05).Conclusion Our findings suggest that blood glucose and serum total protein level are correlated with blood pressure levels in female college students,while serum total protein level are correlated with blood pressure levels in male college students.

Objective To explore the effects of EEG biofeedback on the sleep quality and autonomic nervous function in the patients with depression sleep disorder.Methods A total of 98 inpatients with depres-sive sleep disorder treated in this hospital from January 2020 to August 2021were selected as the study sub-jects and divided into the study group and control group according to the random number table method,49 ca-ses in each group.The control group adopted the escitalopram treatment,and the study group was combined with EEG biofeedback on this basis.The Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)score,Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)score,subjective insomnia symptom score,heart rate variability(HRV)index,serum neuropep-tide Y(NPY)and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)levels and the incidence rate of adverse reactions before treat-ment and in 3 months of treatment were compared between the two groups.Results The total effective rate of the study group was significantly higher than that of the control group(95.92％vs.81.63％),and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the HAMD,PSQI,subjective insomnia symptom score and PNN50 in both groups were decreased compared with those before treatment,moreover the study group was lower than the control;the levels of SDNN,SDANN,LF,HF and serum NPY and 5-HT were increased compared with those before treatment,moreover the study group was higher than the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no statistically sig-nificant difference in the incidence rate of adverse reactions between the two groups(14.29％vs.10.20％,P＞0.05).Conclusion EEG biofeedback combined with escitalopram could significantly improve the depres-sive symptoms and sleep quality in the patients with depression,regulate the autonomic nervous function and increase serum NPY and 5-HT levels.
