Objective To investigate the effect of glaucocalyxin A(GLA)on neuroinflammation and the HMGB1-RAGE signaling pathway in rats with Alzheimer disease(AD).Methods Rats were given intracerebroventricular injec-tion of Aβ1-42 solution to establish a model of AD,and then the rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group,model group,donepezil group,low-dose GLA group and high-dose GLA group,and high GLA+HMGB1 group,with 15 rats in each group.The Morris water maze test was used to assess the learning and memory abilities of rats;HE staining was used to observe the pathological and morphological changes of hippocampal tissue;ELISA was used to measure the lev-els of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6),and interleukin-1β(IL-1β)in hippocampal tissue;immu-nofluorescence assay was used to measure the expression of the microglia marker protein Iba-1 and the astrocyte marker protein GFAP;Western blotting was used to measure the expression of HMGB1-RAGE pathway-related proteins in hippo-campal tissue.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the model group had significant increases in escape la-tency,the content of TNF-α/IL-6/IL-1β,the positive expression area of Iba-1 and GFAP proteins,and the expression lev-els of HMGB1,RAGE,TLR4,and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65(P<0.05),as well as significant reductions in the time spent in the target quadrant and the number of platform crossings(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the low-and high-dose GLA groups had significant reductions in escape latency,the content of TNF-α/IL-6/IL-1β,the positive ex-pression area of Iba-1 and GFAP proteins,and the expression levels of HMGB1,RAGE,TLR4,and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65(P<0.05),as well as significant increases in the time spent in the target quadrant and the number of platform crossings(P<0.05),and there were no significant differences between the high-dose GLA group and the donepezil group(P>0.05).Further supplementation experiments using HMGB1 recombinant protein showed that the inhibitory effect of GLA on neuroinflammation was reversed,with a sig-nificant increase in the level of RAGE(P<0.05).Conclusion GLA can alleviate neuroinflammation in AD rats by inhibiting the HMGB1-RAGE signaling pathway.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Xinkang Prescription (Descurainiae Semen Lepidii Semen,Armeniacae Semen Amarum,Poria,Astragali Radix,Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium,Sparanii Rhizoma) for purging the lung and promoting diuresis in treating heart failure by regulating phosphorylation of phospholamban (PLN). Methods Forty-eight C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into sham-operation group,model group,low-,medium-and high-dose Xinkang Prescription groups(0.455,0.91,1.82 g·kg-1),as well as Entresto group (25 mg·kg-1),with eight mice in each group. The model of ischemic heart failure was established by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery in mice. After the model was successfully replicated,mice were orally administered with the above-mentioned dosages of Xinkang Prescription and Entresto once a day for four weeks,while sham-operation group and model group were given 0.9％ sodium chloride solution by gavage at the same time. Echocardiography was used to detect the cardiac function of the mice in each group,including left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS),left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVESD). Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in cardiac tissue of mice. qRT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of BNP. Western Blot and Jess were used to detect the expression of PLN,p-Thr17-PLN,p-Ser16-PLN,sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase 2a (SERCA2a),protein kinase A (PKA),p-PKA,Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinaseⅡ(CaMKⅡ) and p-CaMKⅡ in cardiac tissue,and to calculate the ratio of SERCA2a/PLN. The SERCA2a activity was determined by the inorganic phosphorus method.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,the model group showed a significant decrease in LVEF and LVFS(P<0.01) and a significant increase in LVEDD and LVESD (P<0.01). HE staining showed the fibril of cardiac muscle broke and disarranged,accompanied by inflammatory cell infiltration. The mRNA expression of BNP was significantly up-regulated (P<0.01),and the protein expressions of p-Ser16-PLN,p-Thr17-PLN,p-PKA,the ratio of SERCA2a/PLN and SERCA2a activity were significantly down-regulated (P<0.01),while the expression of p-CaMKⅡ was up-regulated (P<0.01). Compared with the model group,LVEF and LVFS in medium-,high-dose Xinkang Prescription groups were significantly increased(P<0.01),while LVEDD and LVESD were significantly decreased (P<0.01). HE staining showed significant improvement in the pathological damage of cardiac tissue. The expression level of BNP was significantly decreased (P<0.01),while the protein expressions of p-Ser16-PLN,p-Thr17-PLN,p-PKA,the ratio of SERCA2a/PLN and SERCA2a activity were significantly increased (P<0.01). The protein expression of p-CaMKⅡ was remarkably decreased(P<0.05). Conclusion Xinkang Prescription can effectively improve cardiac function of mice with heart failure,which may be related to enhance phosphorylation levels of phospholamban.

Objective:To explore the effect of health education based on theory of planned behavior combined with stepped care model on negative emotion, psychological flexibility and quality of life in patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy.Methods:From October 2020 to December 2021, 108 chemotherapy patients who underwent lung cancer surgery in Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical College and had anxiety or depression that scores was greater than 7 in any dimension of the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) were selected as the study subjects. The study subjects were divided into observation group ( n=46) and control group ( n=48) by random digits table method. Routine care was implemented in the control group. The observation group implemented health education based on the theory of planned behavior combined with stepped care model intervention. The HADS scale was used every 4 weeks to assess negative emotion in both groups. In observation, patients with negative emotion relief stop the next stage of nursing intervention, and patients without relief continue the next stage of higher intensity nursing intervention. Results:Before the intervention, there were no significant difference in the scores of negative emotion, psychological flexibility and quality of life between the two groups ( P>0.05). After intervention, the scores of all dimensions of negative emotion and the total score in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group, and the differences had statistical significance ( t=4.86, 3.19 and 4.53, all P<0.05). After the intervention the scores of psychological flexibility and quality of life dimensions and the total score in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, the differences had statistical significance (t values were -6.01--2.89, all P<0.05). After the intervention, there was no significant difference in the remission rate of negative emotions between the clinical observation stage of the observation group and the concurrent control group ( P>0.05). The remission rates of guided self-help, problem-solving therapy, psychological or drug therapy and total negative emotions in the observation group were 38.46%(15/39), 33.33%(8/24), 6/16 and 78.26%(36/46), respectively, which were higher than those in the control group, and the differences had statistical significance ( χ2 values were 7.04 - 13.80, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Health education based on the theory of planned behavior combined with stepped care model can effectively alleviate the negative emotions of lung cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy and improve psychological flexibility and quality of life.

Objective: To determine the morbidity of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2+ (CIN2+ ) and CIN3+ of different human papillomavirus(HPV) subtype infection combined with different cytology status. Methods: The Shenzhen Cervical Cancer Screening Trial Ⅰ & Ⅱ (SHENCCASTⅠ&Ⅱ) are population-based cross-sectional cervical cancer screening studis conducted in Shenzhen and surrounding area from 2008 to 2010. A total of 12 097 women who aged 25-59 years were included in the analysis. All of these women were detected by liquid-based cytology test and several high-risk HPV-DNA tests. The ones with HPV positive or atypical squamous cells of undetermined sign (ASC-US) were sequentially conducted by cervical biopsy vaginoscopy. Finally, 10 805 samples with complete data of hybrid capture 2(HC2), the polymerase chain reaction-based matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight assay (MALDI-TOF), HPV genotyping detection, cytology and pathology results were analyzed. Results: The top 6 infection rates of HR-HPV in CIN2+ and CIN3+ were HPV16, HPV52, HPV58, HPV33, HPV31, HPV18. The highest constituent ratio of cytology in CIN2+ and CIN3+ was high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion(HSIL). The morbidities of CIN2+ of patients infected with HPV16, HPV31, HPV58, HPV33, HPV18, HPV52 were 41.3%, 31.5%, 30.6%, 28.7%, 28.2%, 17.7%, respectively, while the morbidities of CIN3+ of those were 33.5%, 20.5%, 19.4%, 15.7%, 19.2%, 8.3%, respectively.The morbidities of CIN2+ in negative intraepithelial lesion or malignancy (NILM), ASC-US, low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), atypical squamous cell cannot exclude high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (ASC-H), high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), atypical glandular cell (AGC) samples were 0.4%, 6.9%, 11.1%, 36.4%, 82.0%, 16.7%, respectively, while the morbidities of CIN3+ of those were 0.2%, 3.1%, 4.2%, 22.7%, 64.8%, 0.0%, respectively. The morbidities of CIN2+ in NILM combined with HPV16, HPV18, HPV31, HPV33 infection were 12.6%, 13.3%, 15.8% and 11.5%, respectively, while the morbidities of CIN3+ of those were 10.3%, 11.1%, 7.9% and 7.7%, respectively.The morbidities of CIN2+ and CIN3+ in ASC-US combining with hrHPV infection were high, and the top 6 subtypes associated with high risk of CIN2+ were HPV31 (35.7%), HPV33 (26.9%), HPV16 (26.5%), HPV58 (22.4%), HPV52 (18.6%), HPV68 (15.4%), while those associated with high risk of CIN3+ were HPV16 (20.4%), HPV31 (14.3%), HPV33 (11.5%), HPV58 (8.6%), HPV68 (7.7%), HPV52 (5.8%). Conclusions Cytology combined with HPV genotyping detection can more effectively estimate the morbidity risks of CIN2+ and CIN3+ . Both high prevalence rates and high risks associated with CIN2+ and CIN3+ of HPV31, HPV33, HPV52 and HPV58 are observed. NILM and ASC-US status combined with these subtypes mentioned above are advised to be conducted by colposcopy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the protective effect of sesamin against cadmium chloride (CdCl2)-induced cardiotoxicity in rats.

METHODSFifty male Wistar rats were randomly assigned to five groups: control group, CdCl2 group, and low-, middle-, and high-dose sesamin groups. The control group was given normal saline. The CdCl2 group and sesamin groups were intraperitoneally injected with CdCl2 (5 mg/kg×2 d), and the low-, middle-, and high-dose sesamin groups were given 20, 40, and 80 mg/kg sesamin, respectively. All treatments lasted for four weeks. ECG was measured by a physiological recorder, and serum myocardial enzyme levels were determined by biochemical assay. The heart was weighed, and heart tissues were used in histopathological examination and determination of malondialdehyde (MDA) level.

RESULTSCompared with the control group, the CdCl2 group showed significantly higher levels of serum CK and CK-MB, an increased heart coefficient, significant ST-segment elevation, and higher level of MDA in myocardial tissue (P < 0.05). Histopathological analysis showed edema of myocardial tissues and cells, myocardial fibers disorder, karyopyknosis, and uneven or deep staining of nuclear chromatin. Different doses of sesamin relieved the myocardial pathological changes induced by CdCl2, and high-dose sesamin was the most effective. The middle- and high-dose sesamin groups showed significantly reduced serum CK and CK-MB levels compared with the CdCl2 group (P < 0.05). The heart coefficient of the high-dose sesamin group (0.19±0.01%) was significantly lower than that of the CdCl2 group (0.21±0.01%) (P < 0.05). Myocardial MDA levels of the three sesamin groups (42.32±4.65, 36.71±5.34, and 33.12±4.62 nmol/mg pro, respectively) were all significantly lower than that of the CdCl2 group (55.87±3.65 nmol/mg pro) (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONSesamin can relieve myocardial injury induced by CdCl2, and one possible mechanism is the enhancement of antioxidant capacity of myocardial tissue.
