Objective:To investigate the neural mechanism of long-term exposure to high altitudes environment on the processing stage of perceptual closure.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. Thirty college students who first entered the plateau area (at an altitude of 3 658 m) and had lived in high-altitude areas for two years were selected as high altitude group (HA group), and 29 college students matched in age, gender and education level who had never been to the plateau area were selected as sea level group (SL group). The differences of basic physiological parameters were compared between the two groups.The face pairwise comparison paradigm was applied in the subjects of the two groups and the differences between the two groups were compared by event-related potentials (ERPs) technology. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis, and the mean ± standard deviation was used for statistical description. Independent sample t test was used for comparison of physiological data between the two groups, and repeated measurement variance analysis was used for ERP data. Results:The physiological results revealed that the HA group had a higher pulse rate((86.71±10.82)/min, (75.97±11.28)/min ; t=-3.19, P=0.002) and diastolic blood pressure than the SL group ((75.93±9.19)mmHg, ( 68.59±11.42) mmHg ; t=-3.20, P=0.002). The oxygen saturation level was significantly lower than that of SL group ((90.77±2.25)%, (98.31±1.56) %) ; t=14.00, P<0.001). In the face pairwise comparison paradigm test, the main effect of P1 latency of ERP was significant.Compared with SL group, HA group showed significantly shortened latency of P1 ((105.10±15.59) ms, (128.35±14.40)ms, P<0.001). The main effect of group of N170 amplitude was significant, HA group was larger than that of SL group((-7.57±3.83) μV, ( -5.11±3.26) μV, P=0.005). The interaction effect between group and hemisphere of NCL amplitude was significant ( F(1, 57)=9.72, P=0.003). Simple effect test showed that the amplitude on the right hemisphere of SL group was significantly larger than that on the left hemisphere((0.46±1.31) μV), (1.16±1.33) μV ). The latency of P1 was significantly correlated with heart rate( r=-0.46, P<0.01), oxygen saturation level( r=0.64, P<0.01) and diastolic blood pressure( r=-0.26, P=0.049). Conclusion:After long-term exposure to high altitude, the neural response related to early visual perception is faster. More psychological resources are recruited during the face structural encoding stage. Contra-lateral compensating effect appeares in the stage of perceptual closure.

Objective:To investigate the effect of epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor on the radiosensitivity of human non-small cell lung cancer cells and its possible mechanism.Methods:Human non-small cell lung cancer cells H1299 were cultured in vitro. CCK-8 was used to detect the toxic effects of erlotinib on H1299 cells, IC 50 and IC 20 were calculated, and IC 20 was utilized as the drug concentration for subsequent experiments. The colony formation assay was performed to identifiy the effect of X-ray combined with erlotinib on H1299 cells, the radiosensitivity parameters were calculated, and the cell survival curves were delineated. Flow cytometry was conducted to detect the cell cycle distribution and apoptosis. Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression of EGFR/PI3K/AKT pathway and apoptosis-related proteins. Results:Erlotinib exerted inhibitory effect upon the proliferation of H1299 cells, IC 50 was calculated as 27.3 μmol/L, and 3.3 μmol/L for IC 20. X-ray combined with IC 20 concentration of erlotinib could reduce the cloning ability of H1299, increased the proportion of G 0/G 1 phase and G 2/M phase, decreased the proportion of S phase, aggravated cell apoptosis, down-regulated the expression of pEGFR and pAKT proteins, and up-regulated the expression of apoptosis-related proteins including Active Caspase 3 and Cleaved PARP. Conclusions:Erlotinib exerts a radiosensitizing effect on H1299. The possible mechanism is that erlotinib combined with radiation can suppress the EGFR/PI3K/AKT pathway, reduce the ability of repairing cell damage, change cell growth cycle and induce cell apoptosis.

Objective To discuss the safety and advantages of prone-straddle position applied in transvaginal hysteromyomectomy of the posterior wall of the uterus. Methods The clinical data of patients who were admitted into our hospital from March 2013 to Janaury 2015 and received transvaginal hysteromyomectomy were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into group A ( prone-straddle position, 30 cases) and group B (traditional lithotomy position,24 cases). The exposure of operative field, convenience of operation, time of the placement, time of operation, patient satisfaction, as well as patients’ heart rate, blood pressure, and oxyhemoglobin saturation were observed and ana-lyzed. Results Compared with the lithotomy position, there were significant differences in the time of the placement and the time of opera-tion in the patients treated by prone-straddle position. The patients with prone-straddle position cooperated well, and there was no obvious discomfort. Their vital signs were stable during the operation. The operative field during prone-straddle position exposed better and it was more convenient which make the operation became easier for both the operators and nurses. Conclusion Prone-straddle position applied in transvaginal hysteromyomectomy of the posterior wall of the uterus is safe and practicable, and it is valuable for clinical application.
