Growth arrest DNA damage-inducible protein 45 β (GADD45B) has been reported to be a regulatory factor for active DNA demethylation and is implicated in the modulation of synaptic plasticity and chronic stress-related psychopathological processes. However, its precise role and mechanism of action in stress susceptibility remain elusive. In this study, we found a significant reduction in GADD45B expression specifically in the ventral, but not the dorsal hippocampal CA1 (dCA1) of stress-susceptible mice. Furthermore, we demonstrated that GADD45B negatively regulates susceptibility to social stress and NMDA receptor-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) in the ventral hippocampal CA1 (vCA1). Importantly, through pharmacological inhibition using the NMDA receptor antagonist MK801, we provided further evidence supporting the hypothesis that GADD45B potentially modulates susceptibility to social stress by influencing NMDA receptor-mediated LTP. Collectively, these results suggested that modulation of NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic plasticity is a pivotal mechanism underlying the regulation of susceptibility to social stress by GADD45B.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy, influencing factors, and risk warning of multi-plane low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation（MLT-RFA） in the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome（OSAHS）. Methods:A total of 118 OSAHS patients admitted from October 2022 to June 2024 were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into mild group（n=46）, moderate group（n=52）, and severe group（n=20） according to the severity of their condition. MLT-RFA treatment was used for all patients. After surgery, the results of polysomnography（PSG） and the changes in the Calier Sleep Apnea Quality of Life Index（SAQLI） were observed before and after treatment. The incidence of complications after treatment was recorded, and the clinical efficacy of the patients was evaluated. At the same time, they were divided into a treatment effective group（n=106） and an ineffective group（n=12） according to their effects. The general clinical data of the two groups were compared, and binary logistics regression analysis was conducted to identify independent factors that affect treatment efficacy and construct a model. ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of the model. Results:The treatment effectiveness rate of the mild group was 93.48%, the moderate group was 90.38%, and the severe group was 80.00%. There was no statistically significant difference in the treatment effectiveness rate among the three groups（P>0.05）. The AHI of the mild group, moderate group, and severe group increased sequentially, while the LSaO2and SAQLI scores decreased sequentially. After treatment, the AHI of all three groups decreased compared to before treatment, while the LSaO2and SAQLI scores increased compared to before treatment, and the differences were statistically significant（P<0.05）. The pre-treatment AHI of the effective group was lower than that of the ineffective group, and the pre-treatment LSaO2and SAQLI were higher than those of the ineffective group, with statistically significant differences（P<0.05）. Pre-treatment LSaO2and pre-treatment SAQLI are independent factors affecting the efficacy of MLT-RFA（P<0.05）. The AUC of pre-treatment LSaO2, pre-treatment SAQLI, and combined prediction were 0.907, 0.763, and 0.947, respectively, with sensitivities of 0.896, 0.840, and 0.917, and specificities of 0.833, 0.667, and 0.887, respectively. Conclusion:MLT-RFA has a significant effect on the treatment of OSAHS, and the AHI, LSaO2, and SAQLI of patients before treatment can predict the treatment effect, with LSaO2 and SAQLI being independent influencing factors. The combinerd prediction model exhibits high diagnostic efficiency, sensitivity, and specificity.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between 24-hour urinary sodium excretion and early renal function impairment in patients with primary hypertension.Methods:This cross-sectional study included patients with primary hypertension who were admitted to the Department of Cardiology of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital between January 2021 and October 2024. Patients were divided into low-sodium, medium-sodium, and high-sodium groups based on their 24-hour urinary sodium excretion. General clinical data were collected using the electronic medical record system. Urinary sodium, protein, and microalbumin excretion were analyzed from 24-hour urine samples. Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between 24-hour urinary sodium excretion and urinary microalbumin excretion. A multiple linear regression model was used to further assess the independent association between these variables. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on age were performed to determine whether age influenced the relationship between urinary sodium excretion and renal function impairment.Results:A total of 1 065 patients with primary hypertension were included, with a mean age of (55.26±14.06) years, including 568(53.33%) males. The low-sodium, medium-sodium, and high-sodium groups included 223, 579, and 263 patients, respectively. The 24-hour urinary microalbumin excretion in the high-sodium group was significantly higher than in the medium-sodium and low-sodium groups, and this trend remained consistent across different age groups (all P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between 24-hour urinary sodium excretion and urinary microalbumin excretion ( r=0.220, P<0.001), and this relationship was observed in all age groups (all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis confirmed an independent association between 24-hour urinary sodium excretion and urinary microalbumin excretion (all P<0.001), which persisted across different age groups (all P<0.05). Conclusion:In patients with primary hypertension, 24-hour urinary sodium excretion is closely associated with microalbumin excretion, suggesting a potential link to early renal function impairment.

Objective:To observe the effect of contralateral needling to regulate tendons and circulate Qi combined with Maitland joint mobilization on ankle joint function and the peri-ankle muscle groups in patients with chronic ankle sprain.Methods:A total of 77 patients with chronic ankle sprain,meeting the inclusion criteria,were randomly divided into a control group(38 cases)and an observation group(39 cases).The control group received conventional acupuncture treatment,while the observation group received contralateral needling to regulate tendons and circulate Qi combined with joint mobilization.Both groups were treated once daily for two consecutive courses.The American Orthopaedic Foot&Ankle Society(AOFAS)ankle-hindfoot scale was used to assess ankle joint function in the two groups,and the biomechanical model of skeletal muscles of lower limbs(Gait2392_simbody)was used to evaluate the muscle strength of the peri-ankle muscle groups.Results:The total effective rate in the observation group was 94.9%,significantly higher than the 79.0%in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scores in both groups increased compared to their respective pre-treatment scores(P<0.05),and the scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the maximum muscle strength values of the medial and lateral heads of the gastrocnemius,tibialis posterior,and flexor hallucis longus in both groups increased compared to their respective pre-treatment values(P<0.05),and the values in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The maximum muscle strength values of the soleus and flexor digitorum longus in both groups decreased compared to their respective pre-treatment values(P<0.05),and the values in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The maximum muscle strength values of the extensor hallucis longus and tibialis anterior in both groups increased compared to their respective pre-treatment values(P<0.05),and the values in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The visual analog scale(VAS)score in both groups decreased compared to their respective pre-treatment score(P<0.05),and the score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Either the combined therapy(contralateral needling to regulate tendons and circulate Qi combined with joint mobilization)or the conventional acupuncture alone can alleviate pain,improve ankle joint function,and enhance the muscle strength of the peri-ankle muscle groups in patients with chronic ankle sprain,but the combined therapy shows superior efficacy.

Objective:To explore the effect of training program based on service-oriented leadership theory on alleviating the degree of job burnout of clinical nurses, and provide reference for improving the situation of job burnout of nurses.Methods:From January to December 2023, 10 head nurses of a Grade A general hospital were selected by random number table method for training, and 5 nurses were selected from the department of each head nurse by random number table method, a total of 50 nurses were selected as research objects. Through the training program based on the service-oriented leadership theory, the selected head nurses were trained on the service-oriented leadership theory, job burnout and burnout mitigation methods and passed the examination. The training period was 2 months. The general data of 50 nurses were collected, and the job burnout of nurses was investigated by using the Maslach Burnout Inventory before and 6 months after the training of head nurses, and the changes of scores of each dimension were compared by paired t-test. Results:The nurses were (30.4±5.5) years old and their working life was (8.1±6.1) years. The total detection rate of job burnout before training was 100% (50/50), the detection rate of moderate to severe emotional exhaustion was 60% (30/50), and the detection rate after training was 36% (18/50). The detection rate of moderate to severe depersonalization was 72% (36/50) and 40% (20/50) after training. The detection rate of moderate to severe lack of job accomplishment was 86% (43/50) and 54% (27/50) after training. After 6 months of head nurses training, the scores of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization of nurses were significantly lower than those before training, while the scores of personal achievement were significantly higher than those before training, with statistical significances ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:The training program based on service-oriented leadership theory can scientifically prevent and alleviate nurses' job burnout after receiving training of administrators, which is helpful to improve the current situation of nurses' job burnout and reduce the degree of nurses' job burnout, and can play a positive role in promoting nurses' physical and mental health.

Objective To construct and validate a clinical prediction model for delayed extubation undergoing non-emergency major surgery based on the random forest algorithm.Methods Clinical data of 7 528 patients undergoing non-emergency major surgery under general anesthesia from January 2018 to De-cember 2022 were retrospectively collected.The patients were divided into two groups according to whether extubation was performed within 2 hours after surgery:non-delayed extubation group(≤2 hours)and de-layed extubation group(＞2 hours).All the patients were randomly divided into a training set and a valida-tion set in a ratio of 7 ∶ 3.The predictive factors for delayed extubation after surgery were screened through LASSO regression and Logistic regression.The random forest model was established and verified by random forest algorithm.Results There were 123 patients(1.6%)experienced delayed extubation after surgery.ASA physical status,department,intraoperative use of flurbiprofen ester,dexmedetomidine,glucocorticoid,hypocalcemia,severe anemia,intraoperative blood transfusion,and airway spasm were identified as inde-pendent predictive factors for delayed extubation.The area under curve(AUC)value of the random forest prediction model in the validation set was0.751(95%CI0.742-0.778),and the sensitivity was98.1%,and the specificity was 41.9%.Conclusion The predictive model of delayed extubation undergoing non-e-mergency major surgery based on random forest algorithm has a good predictive value,which may be helpful to prevent delayed extubation undergoing non-emergency major surgery.
