Objective Exploring alterations in regional homogeneity(ReHo)in the brain of adolescents with depression and suicide attempts.Methods Adolescent patients with depression were included.Those with at least one suicide attempt within one year were classified as the suicide attempt group(32 cases),and those without suicide attempts within one year were classified as the non-suicide attempt group(33 cases).Additionally,a healthy control group(31 individuals)was included.All subjects underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI)scans,and the ReHo values were calculated.The severity of depressive symptoms and the suicide risk were evaluated using the patient health questionnaire-9(PHQ-9)and the mini-international neuropsychiatric interview(MINI)suicide scale,respectively.The ReHo values were compared across groups,and the correlations between ReHo values in distinct brain regions and the PHQ-9 and the MINI suicide scales were analyzed.Results Compared with the healthy control group,the ReHo values in the right and left thalamus,right and left precentral gyrus were decreased in the suicide attempt group(voxel level P<0.001,cluster level P<0.05,GRF corrected),while the ReHo value in the right superior temporal gyrus was increased(voxel level P<0.001,cluster level P<0.05,GRF corrected).Compared with the healthy control group,the ReHo values in the right midbrain and the right thalamus were decreased in the non-suicide attempt group(voxel level P<0.001,cluster level P<0.05,GRF corrected),while the ReHo values in the left middle frontal gyrus,right middle frontal gyrus,and right superior frontal gyrus were increased(voxel level P<0.001,cluster level P<0.05,GRF corrected).Compared with the non-suicide attempt group,the ReHo values in the right medial and paracingulate gyrus were decreased in the suicide attempt group(voxel level P<0.001,cluster level P<0.05,GRF corrected).ReHo values in the right superior temporal gyrus of the suicide attempt group showed a positive correlation with PHQ-9 scores(r=0.407,P=0.026).Conclusion Reduced ReHo values in the right medial and paracingulate gyrus at rest in the group with suicide attempt depression may be a potential neural mechanism for suicide in adolescent depressed patients.

Objective:To observe the changes of the structure and visual function of the retina in patients with or without the ectopic inner foveal layers (EIFL) and to explore the factors influencing the recovery of visual function in patients with idiopathic epimacular membrane (IMEM).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From March 2015 to June 2019, 90 patients with MEM who were diagnosed by Ophthalmic Center of the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University were enrolled in the study. All patients were examined by best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and frequency domain optical coherence scan. BCVA was recorded by Snellen vision table, and it was converted into the minimum resolution angle logarithm (logMAR) vision. Among 90 eyes, IMEM grade 2-4 was 68 (75.6%, 68/90), 18 (20.0%, 18/90), 4 (4.4%, 4/90), respectively. According to this, the grade 2 was set as group A, and the grade 3 and grade 4 were combined to group B. There was no significant difference in age ( t=0.015), sex composition ratio of patients between two groups ( χ2=0.060) and the average of central macular thickness (CMT) ( F=2.277) ( P=0.904, 0.809, 0.141). The difference of average logMAR and BCVA was statistically significant ( F=35.913, P=0.000). All patients underwent 25G pars plana three channel vitrectomy with simultaneous removal of epiretinal membrane and internal limiting membrane. BCVA, CMT and improvement of IMEM grading were observed at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after operation. BCVA, EIFL thickness and CMT were compared before and after operation by single factor repeated variance analysis; Fisher exact probability method was used to compare the changes of the anatomical structure of the eyes in the two groups at 12 months after operation. Results:1, 3, 6, 12 months after operation, the average eyes of logMAR BCVA in group A were 0.50±0.13, 0.38±0.12, 0.27±0.12, 0.19±0.10. The patients in group B were 0.66±0.14, 0.60±0.13, 0.54±0.14, 0.52±0.14. CMT in group A were 364.82±81.29, 281.65±72.45, 228.55±55.34, 182.84±56.13 μm. The patients in group B were 455.88±69.60, 440.18±68.65, 383.76±65.38, 371.39±66.60 μm. The difference was statistically significant in the two groups (BCVA: F=37.913, 11.479, 24.250, 39.013; P=0.000, 0.002, 0.000, 0.000. CMT: F=10.987, 39.610, 55.789, 79.987; P=0.002, 0.000, 0.000, 0.000). In group A, IMEM was improved to 57 eyes of grade 1 on 12 months after operation. Among the 18 eyes in group B, IMEM was improved to 1 and 3 eyes in level 1 and level 2, respectively, and no improvement was found in 4 eyes in grade 4. The difference was statistically significant ( P=0.000) in the improvement of the number of eyes in the two groups. Conclusions:The patients with IMEM without EIFL have better visual prognosis and reversible anatomical changes. EIFL is an important factor affecting the visual function and anatomical structure recovery after operation.

Objective To investigate the effect of transient receptor potential M4 (TRPM4) on autonomous regulation disorder of cerebral blood flow following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in rats.Methods A total of 120 clean grade male SD rats were selected.They were divided into sham operation,SAH,negative control,and treatment groups according to the random number table.The dead rats were excluded.A SAH model was induced by using the suprasellar cistern injection method with a stereotaxic apparatus.Isotonic saline 0.2 ml was injected into the rats of the sham operation group and negative control group respectively,and autologous tail arterial blood 0.2 ml was injected into the rats of the SAH group and the treatment group respectively.The isotonic saline solution was continuously pumped into lateral ventricle of rats via implantable micro-pump in the sham operation group and the SAH group respectively,and the concentration of 0.03 mol/L of TRPM4 blocking agent was continuously pumped into the lateral ventricles of rats in the control group and the treatment group respectively.The 4 groups of rats received the regional cerebral blood flow and whole cerebral blood flow detection on day 3,5,and 7,respectively.Results One hundred and six (88.3%) of the 120 SD rats survived to the time point of study,data analyses were performed in the 4 groups (with 21 rats in each group) respectively (n=7 in each time point).There were significant differences in cerebral cortex local and whole cerebral blood flow at day 3,5,and 7 in the sham operation,SAH and negative control groups (all P<0.05).Cerebral cortex local cerebral blood flow (141±18,148±24,and 168±19 PU,respectively at day 3,5,and 7) and whole cerebral blood flow (93±5,85±5,and 85±6 ml/[100 g·min],respectively at day 3,5,and 7 in the SAH group) were decreased significantly compared with the sham operation group (cortex local cerebral blood flow:235±17,220±24,and 224±20 PU),whole cerebral blood flow (141±10,147±8,and 143±8 ml/[100 g·min]),all P<0.05).Cerebral cortex local and whole cerebral blood flow (cortical local cerebral blood flow:183±26,173±26,and 187±15 PU,whole brain:114±10,104±9,and 119±5 ml/(100 g·min) in the treatment group were significantly increased compared with the SAH group (all P<0.05).Conclusion TRPM4 has an obvious effect on improving the autonomous regulation disorder of cerebral blood flow after SAH.
