Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an age-related neurodegenerative disease that belongs to the category of dementia in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). According to the TCM theory, phlegm, dampness, stasis, and toxin are the major factors inducing the occurrence and development of AD. The application of aromatic Chinese medicines to remove the combined phlegm, dampness, stasis, and toxin is an important TCM method for treating AD. Aquaporins (AQPs) are involved in the water metabolism of the central nervous system (CNS), playing a role in the water balance of CNS. Therefore, AQPs are deeply involved in the occurrence and development of AD. AQPs may be the key targets of a variety of aromatic Chinese medicines. From the intrinsic relationship between AQPs and AD-inducing factors (phlegm, dampness, stasis, and toxin), this study explores the modern medical connotation of treating AD with aromatic Chinese medicines, aiming to provide ideas for the prevention and treatment of AD with TCM.

Objective:To investigate the analgesic effect and safety of using an epidural analgesia pump versus an intravenous analgesia pump for uterine artery embolization in the treatment of uterine fibroids. Methods:Fifty patients with uterine fibroids undergoing uterine artery embolization admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital and Yuying Children's Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2019 to December 2021 were included in this study. They were divided into an observation group and a control group ( n = 25/group). Patients in the observation group used an epidural analgesia pump for pain relief, while patients in the control group used an intravenous analgesia pump for pain relief. At 1, 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery, pain severity was compared between the two groups using the Visual Analogue Scale. Comfort level was compared between the two groups using the Bruggemann Comfort scale. Before and after surgery, respiratory rate, heart rate, blood pressure, and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results:At 1 hour after surgery, the Visual Analogue Scale score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [3.00 (2.00, 5.50) vs. 7.00 (6.00, 8.00), Z = -3.84, P < 0.05]. At 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery, there was a significant difference in the Visual Analogue Scale score between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Within 24 hours after surgery, the use of opioid analgesics in the observation group was less than that in the control group [16.00% (4/25) vs. 88.00% (22/25), χ2 = 25.96, P < 0.001]. At 1 hour after surgery, the Bruggemann Comfort Scale score in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [0.00 (0.00, 0.50) vs. 0.00 (0.00, 0.00), Z = 2.08, P < 0.05]. At 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery, there was no significant difference in the Bruggemann Comfort Scale score between the two groups (all P > 0.05). After surgery, heart rate was significantly decreased in each group compared with before surgery (both P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in respiratory rate and mean arterial pressure between the two groups before and after surgery (both P > 0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidences of postoperative nausea, vomiting, and fever between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:The epidural analgesia pump used for uterine artery embolization in the treatment of uterine fibroids has a better analgesic effect and provides more comfort and is safer than the intravenous analgesia pump. The former is worthy of clinical promotion.

BACKGROUND: Hyaluronan-methylcellulose hydrogel cannot only be conjugated with short peptide sequences and growth factors to achieve sustained release, but also has a role in blocking dural defects and reducing inflammation. It is an ideal biomaterial for the treatment of spinal cord injury. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of neurotrophin-3 modified hyaluronan-methylcellulose (HAMC-NT-3) hydrogel on the recovery of neurological function in rats with spinal cord injury. METHODS: Fifty-four female Sprague-Dawley rats (provided by the Experimental Animal Center of the Academy of Military Medical Sciences in China) were randomly divided into three groups (n=18 per group) . The sham group only underwent T10 laminectomy. In the model group and the experimental group, an aneurysm clip was used to establish spinal cord injury models after T10 laminectomy. The experimental group was locally injected with HAMC-NT-3 hydrogel. The Basso Beattie Bresnahan function scoring was performed at 1 day, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 weeks after surgery. The inclined plane test was performed at 4, 6 and 8 weeks after surgery to evaluate the recovery of hindlimb motor function. ELISA was used to detect the concentrations of inflammatory factors in the spinal cord at 1 week after surgery. Immunohistochemical staining was used to observe the area of syringomyelia, glial fibrillary acidic protein expression and nerve regeneration at 8 weeks after surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The Basso Beattie Bresnahan scores of the model group and the experimental group were lower than those of the sham group at various time points after surgery (P < 0.05) . The Basso Beattie Bresnahan scores of the experimental group were higher than those of the model group at 4-8 weeks after surgery (P < 0.05) . (2) In the inclined plane test, the maximum inclined angles of the model group and the experimental group at each time point after surgery were lower than that of the sham group (P < 0.05) . The maximum inclined angles of the experimental group at 6 and 8 weeks after surgery were higher than those of the sham group (P < 0.05) . (3) The concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, interleukin-6 and interleukin-10 in the experimental group and the model group were higher than those in the sham group (P < 0.05) . The concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β and interleukin-6 in the experimental group were lower than those in the model group (P < 0.05) . The concentration of interleukin-10 in the experimental group was higher than that in the model group (P < 0.05) . (4) Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression levels of glial fibrillary acidic protein in the experimental group and the model group were higher than those in the sham group, while the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein in the experimental group was lower than that in the model group. The area of syringomyelia in the experimental group was smaller than that in the model group (P < 0.05) . These results indicate that local injection of HAMC-NT-3 hydrogel can effectively inhibit inflammation as well as astrocyte activation and proliferation, reduce fibrous scar formation, and promote the protection of nerve tissue and the recovery of hindlimb motor function after spinal cord injury.

Objective:
To reveal the relationship between physical fitness and body fat percentage (BFP) among female college students.
Methods:
During March 2017, BFP and fat free mass were measured among 633 randomly selected healthy female college students. All subjects were divided into five groups based on BFP: low weight, normal weight, high body fat, grade I obesity and grade II/III obesity. Grip strength, leg strength, back strength, vital capacity, maximal oxygen uptake, reaction time, sitandreach, back scratch and standing on one foot with closed eyes were tested.
Results:
There were significant differences between all groups in grip strength, back strength, vital capacity, the absolute and relative value of VO2max, back scratch on both sides and standing on one foot with closed eyes(P<0.05). Grade I obesity group showed significant higher vital capacity, but lower relative value of VO2max, back scratch in both sides compared with normal group. Significant differences were observed in relative value of maximum oxygen uptake and back scratch in both sides between high body fat group and grade I obesity(P<0.05). Moreover, grade II/III obesity group showed significantly higher grip strength, back strength, vital capacity and absolute VO2max, but lower relative VO2max, back scratch in both sides and standing on one foot with closed eyes compared with normal and high body fat groups(P<0.05). There were significant differences in all the indicators except back strength and the relative VO2max between grade II/III obesity and grade I obesity group(P<0.05).
Conclusion
The results showed that physical fitness of female college students with normal body fat percentage is significantly better than that of obese peers. Body fat percentage confers damage for cardiopulmonary endurance fitness and upper limb flexibility fitness when higher than 30% and for balance fitness when higher than 35%.
