Objective:To evaluate the relationship between intracerebroventricular glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)-induced improvement in long-term postoperative cognitive function and expression of PKMζ and Kalirin in the hippocampus of neonatal rats.Methods:Sixty 7-day old Sprague-Dawley rats, male or female, were divided into 4 groups ( n=15 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), GDNF group (group G), surgery group (group S) and surgery plus GDNF group (group S+ G). Group C did not receive anesthesia, surgery or drug treatment. Group G received intracerebroventricular injection of 0.3 μg recombinant rat GDNF. Group S and group S+ G underwent right carotid artery exposure surgery under 3% sevoflurane anesthesia, and in addition group S+ G received intracerebroventricular injection of GDNF. The Barnes maze test and the fear conditioning test were performed starting from postnatal day 33. The animals were then sacrificed under sevoflurane anesthesia after behavioral testing, the brains were obtained and divided into 2 halves sagittally along the midline. The left half of the brain was used for Golgi staining to observe dendritic morphology and measure dendritic spine density. The hippocampal protein was extracted from the right half of the brain to detect the expression of PKMζ and Kalirin by Western blot. Results:Compared with group C, the time to identify the target box in the Barnes maze test was significantly prolonged, the context-related freezing time in the fear conditioning test was shortened, the total dendritic length, the number of branches, the number of intersections in sholl analysis and spinal density in the hippocampus were reduced, and the expression of PKMζ and Kalirin was down-regulated in group S ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the aforementioned parameters in group G ( P>0.05). Compared with group S, the time to identify the target box in the Barnes maze test was significantly shortened, the context-related freezing time in the fear conditioning test was prolonged, the total dendritic length, the number of branches, the number of intersections in sholl analysis and spinal density in the hippocampus were increased, and the expression of PKMζ and Kalirin was up-regulated in group S+ G ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which intracerebroventricular GDNF improves long-term postoperative cognitive function may be related to up-regulating the expression of PKMζ and Kalirin and promoting the development of dendrites and dendritic spines in the hippocampus of neonatal rats.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between the mechanism of preoperative sleep deprivation aggravating postoperative cognitive dysfunction and theta oscillations in the hippocampal CA1 region in aged mice.Methods:Twenty-four SPF male C57BL/6J mice, aged 18 months, weighing 20-30 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=8 each) by a random number table method: normal control group (group C), operation group (group S) and preoperative sleep deprivation + operation group (group SD+ S). The sleep deprivation model was established using the sleep deprivation rod method, and the sleep deprivation time was 24 h before operation. The sleep deprivation rod was set to rotate continuously at 6 rpm/min, and the direction was randomly reversed to force the mice to exercise to achieve the purpose of sleep deprivation. Group C received no treatment. Group S underwent exploratory laparotomy under isoflurane anesthesia. After sleep deprivation for 24 h, SD+ S group underwent exploratory laparotomy under isoflurane anesthesia. Y-maze and Morris water maze tests were used to evaluate postoperative cognitive function. The theta oscillations in the hippocampal CA1 region were observed and recorded by EEG electrodes in vivo. The animals were then sacrificed and brain tissues were obtained for determination of the density of dendritic spines in the hippocampal CA1 region. Results:Compared with group C, the number of crossing the original platform was significantly decreased, and the time of staying at the original platform quadrant and time of exploring the novel arm were shortened, and the number of entries into the novel arm was reduced, the density of dendritic spines in the hippocampal CA1 region was reduced, and the percentage of theta oscillation power was decreased during the Y maze test in group S ( P<0.05). Compared with S group, the number of crossing the original platform was significantly decreased, and the time of staying at the original platform quadrant and time of exploring the novel arm were shortened, and the number of entries into the novel arm was reduced, the density of dendritic spines in the hippocampal CA1 region was reduced, and the percentage of theta oscillation power was decreased during the Y maze test in SD+ S group ( P<0.01). Conclusions:The mechanisms by which preoperative sleep deprivation exacerbates postoperative cognitive dysfunction may be related to reduction in theta oscillations in the hippocampal CA1 region of aged mice.

Objective:To establish a risk prediction model dominated by diaphragm thickening fraction (DTF) and intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) monitoring, and to explore the predictive value of the model for weaning failure in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:A prospective research was conducted. Sixty-three patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation treatment who diagnosed with SAP admitted to intensive care unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University from August 2020 to October 2021 were enrolled. The spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) was carried out when the clinical weaning criteria was met. The stable cardiovascular status, good pulmonary function, no chest and abdominal contradictory movement, and adequate oxygenation were defined as successful weaning. Otherwise, it was defined as failure weaning. The clinical indicators such as SBT 30-minure DTF, IAP, tidal volume (VT), respiratory rate (RR), body mass index (BMI), and blood lactic acid (Lac) were compared between the weaning success group and the weaning failure group. The indicators with statistically significant differences in the single-factor analysis were included in the secondary multivariable Logistic regression analysis to establish a risk prediction model. The correlation between the DTF and IAP at 30 minutes of SBT was analyzed. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to analyze the predictive value of the risk prediction model for SAP patient withdrawal failure at 30 minutes of SBT.Results:Finally, 63 patients with SAP were enrolled. Among the 63 patients, 42 were successfully weaned and 21 failed. There were no significant differences in age, gender, and oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score at admission between the two groups, indicating that the data in the two groups were comparable. Compared with the weaning success group, IAP, RR, BMI and Lac at 30 minutes of SBT in the weaning failure group were significantly increased [IAP (mmHg, 1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa): 14.05±3.79 vs. 12.12±3.36, RR (times/min): 25.43±8.10 vs. 22.02±5.05, BMI (kg/m 2): 23.71±2.80 vs. 21.74±3.79, Lac (mmol/L): 5.27±1.69 vs. 4.55±1.09, all P < 0.05], while DTF and VT were significantly decreased [DTF: (29.76±3.45)% vs. (31.86±3.67)%, VT (mL): 379.00±98.74 vs. 413.60±33.68, both P < 0.05]. Secondary multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that DTF [odds ratio ( OR) = 0.758, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.584-0.983, P = 0.037], IAP ( OR = 1.276, 95% CI was 1.025-1.582, P = 0.029), and RR ( OR = 1.145, 95% CI was 1.014-1.294, P = 0.029) were independent risk factors for SBT withdrawal failure in 30 minutes in SAP patients. The above risk factors were used to establish the risk prediction model of aircraft withdrawal failure at 30 minutes of SBT: Logit P = -0.237-0.277×DTF+0.242×IAP+0.136×RR. Pearson correlation analysis showed that SBT 30-minute DTF was significantly correlated with IAP in SAP patients, and showed a significant positive correlation ( r = 0.313, P = 0.012). The ROC curve analysis results showed that area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the risk prediction model for SAP patient withdrawal failure at 30 minutes of SBT was 0.716, 95% CI was 0.559-0.873, P = 0.003, with the sensitivity of 85.7% and the specificity of 78.6%. Conclusions:DTF, IAP and RR were independent risk factors for SBT withdrawal failure in 30 minutes in SAP patients. The DTF and IAP monitoring-oriented risk prediction model based on the above three variables has a good predictive value for weaning failure in patients with SAP.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of sleep fragmentation on postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and hippocampal glutaminergic metabolism in aged mice anesthetized with isoflurane.Methods:Forty healthy SPF-grade male C57BL/6J mice, aged 18 months, weighing 20-30 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n= 10 each) by the random number table method: normal control group (group C), sleep fragmentation group (group SF), isoflurane anesthesia/surgery group (group I/S), and sleep fragmentation plus isoflurane anesthesia/surgery group (group SF+ I/S). Group C did not received any treatment. Group SF received sleep fragmentation for 24 h. The right carotid artery exposure was performed under isoflurane anesthesia in group I/S. Group SF+ I/S received isoflurane anesthesia/right carotid artery exposure at 24 h after sleep fragmentation. The metabolic levels of glutamate (Glu), glutamine (Gln), Glu/Gln complex (Glx), and N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and their ratio to creatine (Cr) were measured by in vivo 9.4T hydrogen proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 2 h after anaesthesia. Y maze and Morris water maze tests were used to evaluate the cognitive function at 1-7 days after surgery. The mice were sacrificed after the behavioral testing, brain tissues were immediately obtained, and the number of Nissl bodies and density of dendritic spines in the hippocampal CA1 region were measured by Nissl staining and Golgi staining, respectively. Results:Compared with group C, the percentage of exploration time and shuttle times at the novel arm were significantly decreased, the number of crossing the original platform was decreased, the time of stay at the target quadrant was shortened, the ratios of Glu/Cr, Gln/Cr and Glx/Cr in the hippocampal CA1 region were increased, and the ratio of NAA/Cr was decreased, and the number of Nissl bodies and density of dendritic spines were decreased in SF, I/S and SF+ I/S groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group SF and group I/S, the percentage of exploration time and shuttle times at the novel arm were significantly decreased, the number of crossing the original platform was decreased, the time of stay at the target quadrant was shortened, the ratios of Glu/Cr and Glx/Cr in hippocampal CA1 region was increased, the ratio of NAA/Cr was decreased, and the number of Nissl bodies and density of dendritic spines were decreased in group SF+ I/S ( P<0.05).

Objective:To identify the differentially expressed long-chain non-coding RNA(lncRNA) and mRNA using ribonucleic acid sequencing(RNA-seq), and construct a competing endogenous RNA(ceRNA) regulatory network in mice with sepsis-associated encephalopathy.Methods:Ten clean-grade healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 2 groups( n=5 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group(group Sham) and sepsis group(group Sepsis). Sepsis was induced by cecal ligation and puncture(CLP) in group Sepsis, while group Sham only underwent laparotomy without CLP. Morris water maze test and contextual fear conditioning test were performed to detect the cognitive function on 1 day before CLP and 3 days after CLP. Three mice were randomly sacrificed in group Sham, and 3 mice with the worst results in the cognitive function test were sacrificed in group Sepsis. The hippocampal tissues were obtained for RNA-seq via the BGISEQ-500 platform, and the differentially expressed mRNA and lncRNA were identified. The differentially expressed mRNAs and lncRNAs were visualized and analyzed by Dr. Tom platform provided by Shenzhen BGI Technology Service Co., Ltd., and the ceRNA regulatory network was constructed using the online visualization tool Cytoscape software. Results:Compared with group Sham, the escape latency was significantly prolonged, and the percentage of time of staying at the target quadrants and percentage of time spent freezing were decreased in group Sepsis( P<0.05). A total of 62 differentially expressed lncRNAs were obtained from RNA-seq, of which the expression of 45 lncRNAs was up-regulated and the expression of 17 lncRNAs was down-regulated.There were 282 differentially expressed mRNAs identified from RNA-seq, of which the expression of 173 mRNAs was up-regulated, and the expression of 109 mRNAs was down-regulated.Gene Ontology enrichment analysis revealed that the differentially expressed mRNAs were involved in biological processes such as memory, learning or memory, inflammatory responses, regulation of aging-related behavioral decline, and regulation of synaptic plasticity. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis showed that differentially expressed mRNAs were enriched in IL-17 signaling pathway, TNF signaling pathway, NF-κB signaling pathway and etc. KDA analysis was performed on the differentially expressed mRNAs to identify the key driver genes, and the results showed that Ch25h, Il6ra, Lcn2, Sgk1, Nr4a3, Osm, Saa3, Ccl7, Sqle, Dhcr24 were the key SAE genes.A competing endogenous RNA regulatory network was successfully constructed based on 9 lncRNAs, 28 mRNAs and 134 miRNAs in the hippocampus of mice with SAE. Conclusions:The results of RNA-seq find that 10 mRNAs including Ch25h, Il6ra, Lcn2, Sgk1, Nr4a3, Osm, Saa3, Ccl7, Sqle, Dhcr24 and lncRNAs such as Rian, Gm35874 and Gm34347 are key genes regulating SAE in mice. Meanwhile, a ceRNA regulatory network based on lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA is successfully constructed in the hippocampus of mice with SAE.
