Objective To explore the neuroelectrophysiological mechanism of the decline of overall cognitive function and prospective memory,the syndrome manifestation of liver failing to govern conveyance and dispersion of the middle-aged and elderly people in the community with long-term emotional disturbance were evaluated.Methods Eysenck personality questionnaire(EPQ)and general condition questionnaire were used to screen the middle-aged and elderly people from 46 to 65 years old in the community who met the high and low neuroticism criteria,which were included in the long-term emotional disturbance group and the control group.According to the principle of matching sex,age(±2 years)and years of education(±2 years),60 subjects in each group were included.The scores of livers meridian syndrome,anxiety factor,depression factor and the total scores of three factors in the two groups were detected with the emotion rating scale for Ganzangxiang of traditional Chinese medicine.The overall cognitive function,the overall level of prospective memory and the dual-task paradigm of event-related memory were evaluated and event-related potential components were detected.Results Compared to the control group,the total scores of emotion rating scale for Ganzangxiang of traditional Chinese medicine and the scores of liver meridian syndrome factor,anxiety factor and depression factor all increased in the long-term emotional disturbance group significantly(P<0.05).The total scores of MoCA scale(after correction)and the level scores of visual space and executive function,attention and delayed recall decreased significantly(P<0.05),and the total scores of prospective memory questionnaire decreased significantly(P<0.05).The correct rates of ongoing tasks and prospective memory tasks in the event-based prospective memory dual task paradigm were decreased,and the reaction time was prolonged in the long-term emotional disorder group significantly(P<0.05).The amplitude of P200 of ongoing task and prospective memory task were increased in the long-term emotional disorder group(0.05

In the mammalian central nervous system (CNS), astrocytes are the ubiquitous glial cells that have complex morphological and molecular characteristics. These fascinating cells play essential neurosupportive and homeostatic roles in the healthy CNS and undergo morphological, molecular, and functional changes to adopt so-called 'reactive' states in response to CNS injury or disease. In recent years, interest in astrocyte research has increased dramatically and some new biological features and roles of astrocytes in physiological and pathological conditions have been discovered thanks to technological advances. Here, we will review and discuss the well-established and emerging astroglial biology and functions, with emphasis on their potential as therapeutic targets for CNS injury, including traumatic and ischemic injury. This review article will highlight the importance of astrocytes in the neuropathological process and repair of CNS injury.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the relationship between multiple inflammatory markers and poor outcome in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage,and to compare their predictive abilities.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the patients with intracerebral hemorrhage admitted to the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from January 1,2015 to March 31,2023.According to the Modified Rankin Scale at 90 days after onset,the patients were divided into good outcome(mRS≤2 points)and poor outcome(mRS score≥3 points).Clinical information,laboratory examinations and follow-up data were compared between the two groups.Inflammatory markers include neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR),platelet to lymphocyte ratio(PLR),monocyte to high-density lipoprotein ratio(MHR),systemic inflammatory response index(SIRI),systemic immune-inflammation index(SII),white blood cell count to mean platelet volume ratio(WMR),lymphocyte to monocyte ratio(LMR),and systemic coagulation-inflammation index(SCI).Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the predictors of poor prognosis after intracerebral hemorrhage,and receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was constructed to compare their predictive ability.Results A total of 510 patients with intracerebral hemorrhage were included.Of those,297(58.2%)had good outcome,and 213(41.8%)had poor outcome.Comparison of baseline characteristics demonstrated that patients with poor prognosis had higher levels of white blood cells,neutrophils,high-density lipoprotein,fibrinogen,NLR,PLR,SIRI,SII,WMR at admission,larger baseline hematoma volume and baseline perihematomal edema volume,a higher proportion of lobar hemorrhage,older age,and lower levels of platelets,lymphocytes,LMR,and SCI(P<0.05).Multivariate regression analysis showed that NLR(OR:1.081,95%CI:1.032~1.1131,P=0.001),SIRI(OR:1.089,95%CI:1.014~1.169,P=0.019),SII(OR:1.000,95%CI:1.000~1.001,P=0.011),WMR(OR:2.627,95%CI:1.267~5.445,P=0.009)were independently associated with poor prognosis in patients with ICH.In ROC analysis,the area under the curve of NLR(0.729,95%CI:0.685~0.774)was higher than SIRI(0.692,95%CI:0.645~0.738),SII(0.688,95%CI:0.641~0.735)and WMR(0.65,95%CI:0.602~0.698)for predicting poor outcomes.Conclusion NLR,SIRI,SII and WMR at admission are independently associated with poor outcomes in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage,and NLR has the strongest predictive ability.

Objective Using event-related potentials(ERPs)technology to study the effect of long term emotional distress on selective attention distraction inhibition function in college students and its neuroelectrophysiological mechanism.Methods The Eysenck personality questionnaire(EPQ)adult version was used to screen the high and low neuroticism groups among college students,and 35 subjects in each group were included in the long term emotional distress group and the emotional smoothness control group,respectively,and the response time,correct rate,N2 and P3 amplitude and latency results of the participants to complete the negative priming paradigm task were collected and analyzed.Results Compared with the control group,① the long term emotional distress group showed a prolonged response trend(P=0.072).② the long term emotional distress group had a prolonged N2 and P3 latency(P<0.05).Conclusion Selective attention distraction inhibition in college students with long term emotional distress decreased,and the decline mechanism may be related to the decline of inhibition processing and attention resource allocation ability.

Objective To investigate the effect of Qi stagnation on inhibitory control function and its neuroelectrophysiological mechanism in college students.Methods The population of peace and Qi depression was screened from college students through the scale of"Classification and Judgment Criteria of Traditional Chinese Medicine Constitution",and 35 subjects were included in each group.Combined with event-related potential technology,the two groups were collected to complete the Flanker paradigm behavioral indicators(accuracy,response time)and EEG data indicators(amplitude and latency of N2 and P3 components),and the behavioral differences and neuroelectrophysiological mechanisms between the two groups under the Flanker paradigm were explored.Results Compared with the flat group,the reaction time of the gas depression group was longer(P=0.07).Compared with the consistent dondition,the reaction time was longer under the inconsistent condition(P<0.001),and the accuracy rate was lower under the inconsistent condition significantly(P<0.001).Compared with the peaceful group,the N2 amplitude of the air depression group was higher(P<0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the main effect of brain regions in the N2 latency period(P<0.001).Frontal lobe zero(Fz)in frontal region was greater than Frontal lobe central zero(FCz)in frontal region and greater than Central zero(Cz)in central region(P<0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the main effect of brain region(P<0.001).FCz in the frontal central region was significantly greater than that in the frontal region Fz(P<0.001),and the difference was statistically significant in the central region Cz was significantly greater than that in the frontal region(P<0.001).The incubation period of P3 component was significantly smaller than that of inconsistent stimulation(P<0.001).Conclusion Qi stagnation has a negative effect on the inhibitory control function of college students,and the decline of conflict monitoring and control ability is one of the possible mechanisms.
