Depressive disorder ranks as a major bur-den of disease worldwide,yet the current antidepressant medications are limited by frequent non-responsiveness and significant side effects.The lateral septum(LS)is thought to control of depression,however,the cellular and circuit substrates are largely unknown.Here,we identified a subpopulation of LS GABAergic adenosine A2A receptors(A2AR)-positive neurons mediating depres-sive symptoms via direct projects to the lateral habenula(LHb)and the dorsomedial hypothalamus(DMH).Activa-tion of A2AR in the LS augmented the spiking frequency of A2AR-positive neurons leading to a decreased activation of surrounding neurons and the bi-directional manipula-tion of LS-A2AR activity demonstrated that LS-A2ARs are necessary and sufficient to trigger depressive pheno-types.Thus,the optogenetic modulation(stimulation or inhibition)of LS-A2AR-positive neuronal activity or LS-A2AR-positive neurons projection terminals to the LHb or DMH,phenocopied depressive behaviors.Moreover,A2AR are upregulated in the LS in two male mouse mod-els of repeated stress-induced depression.This identifica-tion that aberrantly increased A2AR signaling in the LS is a critical upstream regulator of repeated stress-induced depressive-like behaviors provides a neurophysiological and circuit-based justification of the antidepressant poten-tial of A2AR antagonists,prompting their clinical transla-tion.

Objective:To explore the prognostic factors of epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC), construct a nomogram model, and evaluate the prognosis of EOC patients.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on clinicopathological data of 208 cases of EOC patients who received initial treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from August 11, 2016 to July 11, 2018, including age, preoperative ascites, preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy, surgical method, pathological type, pathological differentiation degree, surgical pathology stage, preoperative and post-chemotherapy serum cancer antigen 125 (CA 125) level, human epididymal protein 4 (HE4) level, platelet count and platelet/lymphocyte number ratio (PLR). The univariate and multivariate Cox risk ratio models were used to analyze the related factors affecting progression free survival (PFS) in EOC patients, and the prediction nomogram of PFS in EOC patients was established to evaluate its efficacy in predicting PFS. Results:Univariate analysis showed that preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy, pathological type, pathological differentiation degree, surgical pathology stage, serum CA 125 and HE4 level before operation and after chemotherapy, platelet count and PLR before operation and after chemotherapy were significantly correlated with PFS in EOC patients (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that surgical pathology stage, preoperative PLR, serum CA 125 and HE4 level after chemotherapy were independent prognostic factors affecting PFS of EOC patients (all P<0.01). The index coefficient of the prediction model for the prognosis of EOC patients established by this method was 0.749 (95% CI: 0.699-0.798), which had good prediction ability, and could help clinicians to more accurately evaluate the prognosis of EOC patients. Conclusion:The nomogram model constructed based on surgical pathology stage, preoperative PLR, serum CA 125 and HE4 level after chemotherapy could effectively predict the PFS of EOC patients after initial treatment, could help clinicians to screen high-risk patients, provide individualized treatment, and improve the prognosis of EOC patients.

Objective: In view of the difficulty of the shortage of new coronavirus nucleal acid test in the early COVID-19 outbreak, to explore the application value of chest CT in screening COVID-19 patients. Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed on the data of patients with fever who received chest CT and new coronavirus nucleal acid test during January 25, 2020 to February 2, 2020 in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University. A total of 587 patients were enrolled, including 290 males and 297 females, aged from 11.0 to 96.0 (51.3±17.1) years old. Take the nucleic acid test results as the gold standard, the sensitivity, specificity and rate of missed diagnosis of CT screening COVID-19 were calculated. Results: Among the 587 patients, there were 433 positive cases (73.8%, 433/587) and 154 negative cases (26.2%, 154/587) of novel coronavirus nucleic acid test. Using CT screening, 494 cases (84.2%, 494/587) were positive and 93 cases (15.8%, 93/587) were negative. The sensitivity of CT screening COVID-19 was 97.7% (423/433), specificity was 53.9% (83/154) and rate of missed diagnosis was 2.3% (10/433). Conclusions In the early COVID-19 outbreak, CT screening has the advantages of high sensitivity and low rate of missed diagnosis of COVID-19, which can compensate for the shortage of new coronavirus nucleal acid test and can be used as the basis for rapid screening for early prevention and control of COVID-19 outbreak.

Objective:To evaluate the oncologic outcomes of different laparoscopic radical hysterectomy.Methods:From January 2011 to December 2014, the laparoscopic operation cases of cervical cancer at stage Ⅰb1, Ⅰb2, Ⅱa1 and Ⅱa2, including the histologic subtypes of squamous-cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and adenosquamous carcinoma, were collected in five clinical centers. The data were divided into two groups according to the surgical procedures, that is, modified laparoscopic-vaginal radical hysterectomy (mLVRH) and total laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (TLRH). The overall survival rate (OS), disease-free survival rate (DFS) at 5 years were retrospectively analyzed in this study.Results:There were 674 cases in total, including 377 cases of mLVRH, 297 cases of TLRH. (1) The OS at 5 years: the mLVRH was 96.1% and the TLRH was 92.0%, and the mLVRH was higher than that of TLRH （ P=0.010）. Stratify analysis， including stage of disease （Ⅰb1 and Ⅱa1）， histologic subtypes （squamous-cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma）， lymph node metastasis， revealed that, ① Stage of disease: in stage Ⅰb1, the OS at five years of mLVRH was higher than that in TLRH group （98.6% vs 93.6%, P=0.012）. In stage Ⅱa1, there was significant difference between the two groups, the OS at five years of mLVRH and TLRH were 93.6% and 77.6% （ P=0.007）. ② Histologic subtypes: for the OS at five years of squamous-cell carcinoma, mLVRH and TLRH were 96.1% and 92.3%, and there was significant difference （ P=0.046）； for adenocarcinoma, the OS at five years were 91.0% and 88.6%， and there was no difference between two groups （ P=0.230）. ③ Lymph node metastasis： the mLVRH and TLRH with lymph node metastasis, the OS at five years were 98.6% and 96.4%; the mLVRH and TLRH without lymph node metastasis, the OS at five years were 89.3% and 80.8%. There were no significant differences between the two groups,respectively ( P=0.156， P=0.093）. (2) The DFS at 5 years: there was no significant difference between mLVRH and TLRH (94.1% vs 90.9%, P=0.220). Stratify analysis for stage of disease, the mLVRH group was higher than that in the TLRH group in stage Ⅰb1 (97.0% vs 92.8%, P=0.039). However, for stage Ⅱa1, there was no significant difference between mLVRH and TLRH group （88.2% vs 75.8%, P=0.074）. Conclusions:The results of this retrospective study indicated that different laparoscopy surgical procedures had diverse oncologic outcomes. The OS at 5 years of the mLVRH is superior to the TLRH. The DFS at 5 years in Ⅰb1 stage, the mLVRH is higher than the TLRH. Therefore, the modified laparoscopy is still an alternative surgery for early cervical cancer patients when following the principle of no-tumor-exposure.

Objective To investigate the expression of oxytocin ( OXT ) and oxytocin receptor (OXTR) in the prefrontal cortex of postpartum depression (PPD) rats induced by restraint stress during pregnancy and to observe the antidepressant effect of oxytocin and its analogue capitoxin and its mechanism. Methods Twenty-four adult female SD rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into control group,PPD +saline group,PPD + oxytocin group and PPD + captopril group with 6 rats in each group. Rats were subjec-ted to restraint stress for 2 hours every day on the 8th to 21st day of pregnancy to establish PPD model. While the rats in control group were not given any treatment. Rats in PPD + saline,PPD + oxytocin and PPD +captopril were injected bilaterally into prefrontal cortex (PFC) at 10 days postpartum (1 μl/side),oxytocin (30 ng/side) and captopril (45 ng/side) respectively once a day for 5 days. The depressive behaviors of rats were detected by sugar-water preference experiment. Rats were sacrificed 18 days after delivery. The ex-pression of OXT was detected by ELISA method,OXTR by Western blot,Iba-1 by immunofluorescence,and IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α by qRT-PCR. Results (1) The sucrose consumption of the PPD + saline group ((67. 1±10. 4)%) was significantly lower than that of the control group((92. 6± 3. 9)%,t=-5. 31,P<0. 01). (2) The expression of oxytocin in prefrontal cortex in PPD group was significantly lower than that in control group ((0. 03±0. 01) ng/mg) vs (0. 08 +0. 05) ng/mg,t=-2. 67,P<0. 05). However,there was no significant difference in the expression of oxytocin receptor between PPD group and control group ((0. 90 ±0. 06) vs (0. 90±0. 05),t=0. 709,P=0. 517). (3) The sucrose consumption of PPD+saline group de-creased than that of control group((65. 6±16. 9)% vs (91. 5±3. 5)%,t=3. 35,P<0. 001). Compared with PPD+saline group,the sucrose consumption of PPD+oxytocin group ((81. 8±8. 4)%) and PPD+carbetocin group ((78. 4±9. 4)%) increased(t=1. 98,1. 68,both P<0. 05). (4) The expression of Iba-1 in the pre-frontal lobe of PPD + saline group was higher than that of control group ((1. 15±0. 05) vs (1. 04 +0. 06), t=3. 50,P<0. 01). Compared with PPD + saline group,the expression of Iba-1 in PPD + oxytocin group (1. 03±0. 06) and in PPD + captopril group (1. 00±0. 02) were lower (t=-3. 50,-6. 55,both P<0. 01). (5) The expression of inflammatory factors IL-1β mRNA (1. 0±0. 1),IL-6 mRNA (1. 1±0. 1) and TNF-α mRNA (1. 7±0. 4) in the prefrontal cortex of rats in the PPD group were higher than that in the control group (IL-1β mRNA (0. 7± 0. 3),IL-6 mRNA (0. 9± 0. 1),TNF-α mRNA ( 1. 1± 0. 3),t=1. 92,3. 19, 2. 43 respectively,all P<0. 05). The expression of inflammatory factors IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α mRNA of the PPD+oxytocin group(IL-1β mRNA (0. 6±0. 1),IL-6 mRNA (0. 9±0. 1),TNF-α mRNA (1. 2±0. 4) )and the PPD+carbetocin group ( IL-1β mRNA ( 0. 7± 0. 1),IL-6 mRNA ( 0. 9 ± 0. 1),TNF-α mRNA ( 1. 0 ± 0. 2))in the prefrontal cortex were lower than that in the PPD group(t=-3. 17,-2. 78,-1. 84,t=-2. 76,-2. 40,-2. 94 respectively,all P<0. 05). Conclusion Oxytocin and capitoxin injected into prefrontal cortex can effectively improve depression-like behaviors in PPD model rats. Activation of microglia and decrease of inflammatory factors in prefrontal cortex may be the potential antidepressant mechanism.

Objective To investigate the Oncomelania hupensis snail control effect of schistosomiasis control engineering in marshland within Wuhan City. Methods The engineering measures including surface barrier removal,molluscicide,flatting surface,topsoil stripping,topsoil covering and ditch renovation were applied to transform Hankou marshland. Then the corre-sponding technical parameters of engineering measures were put forward. The situation of snails was analyzed before and after the transform project. Results The total length and area of the project were 6015 m and 87.21 hm2,respectively,including 17.44 hm2 of topsoil landfill,52.08 hm2 of topsoil covering and 23 new ditches. After the transformation,the average length of the new groove,the groove top width,groove depth,height difference,and the average values of slopes and ditch bottom slope were all increased,while the average values of the width and height of the ditch were decreased. At the same time,the marsh-land beach surface had a new slope that the embankment was higher than the river and no living O. hupensis snails were found then. Conclusions The snail breeding environment in Hankou marshland has been effectively changed by the project. Howev-er,the constant monitoring and engineering management are still needed to consolidate the effect.

BACKGROUND:It is the key point to choose the right size of the prosthesis, and grasp the direction and thickness for osteotomy during total knee arthroplasty. In order to achieve the goal, accurate preoperative planning is very important.
OBJECTIVE:To compare the accuracy of preoperative templating in total knee arthroplasty using conventional two-dimensional (2D) and computed tomography (CT)-based three-dimensional (3D) procedures (templating on 3D image&surgical rehearsing on rapid prototype technology-models), and to confirm the necessity of 3D evaluation for preoperative planning.
METHODS:A total of 25 patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty were randomly selected, including 10 males and 15 females, at the age of 58 and 79 years old. 2D and 3D images were col ected from al patients. Preoperative templating was performed for each total knee arthroplasty using both conventional 2D radiographs and a CT-based 3D image model. Accuracies with regard to the predicted and actual implant sizes were determined for each procedure.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The 3D procedure was found to be more accurate in predicting implant size of 80%femoral and 72%tibial components than those of the 2D procedure (4%femoral and 12%tibial components). Significant differences in the consistent rate of femoral and tibial prosthesis models were detected significantly (P<0.05). Kappa coefficient statistics demonstrated that goodness of fit of prosthesis model was good in 3D preoperative templating. Results confirmed that the superiority of 3D preoperative templating over 2D conventional evaluation is in predicting implant size, and provides more comprehensive information on skeletal anatomy.

Objective To summarise the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognostic analysis of relapse in vaginal stump after treatment of cervical cancer and endometrial cancer, and to offer assistance to clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods Clinical data of 28 patients (admitted in our hospital from Sepetember 2002 to July 2014) with cervical cancer and endometrial cancer after a simple hysterecto-my were retrospectively analyzed. According to the illness, the 28 cases were given partial vagina resection, total vaginal resection and ex-panded vaginal resection. Observe whether the prognostic is in correlation with lymph node metastasis, adjacent organs involvement, interval of recurrence and tissue differentiation degree. Results Median survival time of patients with well or poor differentiation were 40 and 15 months respectively(P<0. 05);and the 3 year survival rates were 66. 1% and 30. 7% respectively (P=0. 03). Median survival time of pa-tients with or without lymph node metastasis were 18 and 40 months respectively (P< 0. 05);and the 3 year survival rates were 0 and 24%respectively(P<0. 05). Median survival time for interval of recurrence of more than 24 months and less than or equal to 24 months were 28 and 16 months respectively (P<0. 05). Conclusion The surgical treatment of vaginal stump carcinoma is safe and effective, and the prog-nostic is in correlation with lymph node metastasis, adjacent organs involvement, interval of recurrence and tissue differentiation degree.

BACKGROUND:Posterior stabilized femoral knee prosthesis needs additional condyle osteotomy to accommodate the tibial post and femur fossa structures. Intercondylar fossa on both sides connected at the femoral body with concentrated stress is a place easily affecting fractures. Differences in bone mass between different models of different brands did not have specific data, which was not convenient to select prosthesis for clinicians.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the difference of intercondylar osteotomy data among clinical commonly used posterior stabilized knee prostheses (six imported and domestic brands), and to provide basis for the selection and application of the prostheses.
METHODS:The current commonly used posterior stabilized knee prostheses (six imported and domestic brands) were used, including Zimmer NexGen LPS, Stryker Scrorpio NRG Knee-Flexed, Depuy PFC Sigma, Smith & nephew Genesis-2 PS, United-U1 and Wego GKPS. According to the osteotomy template, the osteotomy-surfaces consisting of femoral condyle starting section and cross section, distal section of femoral condyle, and back-oblique section were identified. The corresponding femoral prosthesis diameter lines included condylar ambilateral and anteroposterior diameters, width and depth of femoral intercondylar fossa. The above data were compared and measured.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The six kinds of knee femoral prostheses were different in ratio of ambilateral diameter and anteroposterior diameter, bone resection of intercondylar fossa, and geometry. Imported prostheses carry shorter diameters in femoral starting and cross sections, so it can catch more posterior condylar osteotomy. With increasing prosthesis sizes, the ratio of bone loss causing by width of intercondylar osteotomy is decreased among six brands. In al sizes, Stryker Scrorpio NRG Knee-Flexed catches shorter width of intercondylar osteotomy. Knee prosthesis osteotomy among six brands is different. The result of this study is not sufficient to evaluate the pros and cons between different prostheses, but as reserving bone is concerned, the design of less intercondylar osteoomy catches more advantages.
