Objective:To evaluate the effect of propofol on parvalbumin (PV) neurons in the medical prefrontal cortex(mPFC)of rats with social behavior disorders induced by chronic sleep deprivation.Methods:Forty-two SPF male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 8 weeks, weighing 200-250 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=14 each) using a random number table method: control group (group Con), chronic sleep deprivation plus natural sleep group (group CSD+ NS), and chronic sleep deprivation plus propofol group (group CSD+ Pro). Sleep deprivation model was established by the modified multiple platform method, the rats were placed in the sleep-deprivation tank for 20 h a day (14: 00-10: 00), and allowed to sleep naturally for 4 h (10: 00-14: 00) a day for 28 consecutive days. Propofol 40 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected for 28 consecutive days after sleep deprivation in CSD+ Pro group. While the equal volume of 10% fat emulsion was given in Con and CSD+ NS groups. After the end of sleep deprivation, a three-box social experiment was used to detect the social behavior of rats, and the number of the PV positive cells and density of the perineuronal network (PNN) in the mPFC area were measured by immunofluorescence. Results:Compared with group Con, the pertentage of rapid eye movement sleep and sniffing time preference coefficients for the strange rat 1 in the first stage and for the strange rat 2 in the second stage were significantly decreased, and the number of the PV positive cells and density of PNN in the mPFC area were decreased in group CSD+ NS ( P<0.05). Compared with group CSD+ NS, the sniffing time preference coefficients for the strange rat 1 in the first stage and for the strange rat 2 in the second stage were significantly increased, the number of the PV positive cells and density of PNN in the mPFC area were increased( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the percentage of the rapid eye movement sleep in group CSD+ Pro. Conclusions:Propofol probably increases the number and function of PV neurons in the mPFC and ameliorates sleep deprivation-induced social behavior disorders in sleep-deprived rats.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of drug application deviation in elderly diabetes mellitus patients during hospital-family transition period.Methods:A total of 278 elderly diabetes mellitus patients in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from March 2019 to March 2021 were selected as the study subjects.All patients were followed up by telephone 1 week after discharge.The drug deviation evaluation tool(MDT)was used to evaluate the drug application deviation in patients during the hospital-family transition period.They were divided into drug application deviation group and non-drug application deviation group.Sociodemographic and disease-related data and medication management data were compared between the two groups.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of drug application deviation in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus during hospital-family transition period.Results:Of the 278 elderly patients with diabetes, 162(58.27%)had at least one drug application deviation during hospital-family transition period.The family care index was lower in drug application deviation group than non-drug application deviation group( Z=6.578, P<0.001).As compared with non-drug application deviation group, drug application deviation group had the higher number of drugs at discharge, and had lower scores of Morisky Medication Adherence Scale with Eight-Item(MMAS-8), had lower scores of Summary of Diabetes Self Care Activities(SDSCA)and had lower scores of Self-efficacy for Appropriate Medication Use Scale(SEAMS), with statistically significant differences( Z=10.971, 6.077, t=5.947, 14.105, all P<0.001).Binary Logistic regression analysis and forest map showed that the more number of discharge medication was a risk factor for drug application deviation during hospital-family transition period in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus( OR=4.128, P<0.001); family care index, MMAS-8 score, SDSCA score and SEAMS score were its protective factors( OR=0.343, 0.523, 0.922, 0.568, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of drug application deviation during hospital-family transition period is higher in elderly patients with diabetes mellitus.The possible protective factors are high scores of family care index, MMAS-8, SDSCA and SEAMS, and the risk factor is large number of drugs ordered by discharged doctors.Therefore, targeted intervention measures can be implemented to reduce the occurrence of drug application deviation during hospital-family transition period.

Sleep is a complex physiological process of great significance to physical and mental health, and its research scope involves multiple disciplines. At present, the quantitative analysis of sleep mainly relies on the "gold standard" of polysomnography (PSG). However, PSG has great interference to the human body and cannot reflect the hemodynamic status of the brain. Functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is used in sleep research, which can not only meet the demand of low interference to human body, but also reflect the hemodynamics of brain. Therefore, this paper has collected and sorted out the related literatures about fNIRS used in sleep research, concluding sleep staging research, clinical sleep monitoring research, fatigue detection research, etc. This paper provides a theoretical reference for scholars who will use fNIRS for fatigue and sleep related research in the future. Moreover, this article concludes the limitation of existing studies and points out the possible development direction of fNIRS for sleep research, in the hope of providing reference for the study of sleep and cerebral hemodynamics.

Objective: To investigate the dynamic changes of copper and iron contents in brain tissue, body fluids and barriers of rats exposed to lead at different periods in order to provide a theoretical basis for the study of the mechanism of lead nerve injury. Methods: Sixty-four healthy adult SPF male SD rats were randomly divided into control group and lead exposure group, after one week of adaptive feeding, rats in the lead exposure group were treated with 250 mg/L lead acetate, and rats in control group were treated with ordinary drinking water, the experimental period was 12 weeks. After exposure for 3, 6, 9 and 12 weeks, the samples including blood, choroid plexus, cerebrospinal fluid, cortex, hippocampus, striatum, hypothalamus, amygdala, substantia nigra and cerebellum were obtained. Lead, copper and iron content in all kinds of samples were detected by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry(ICP-MS). The measurement data were presented as Mean±SD, Comparison of metal contents in different tissues of rats at different time analyzed using repeated measurement analysis of variance, Two-variable correlation analysis using Spearman correlation test.The relationship between lead exposure experiod and copper and iron in samples was studied by using trend test. Results: After 12 weeks of lead exposure compared with the control group, lead contents in cortex, hippocampus, striatum, hypothalamus, amygdala, substantia nigra and cerebellum of rats were 2.21, 2.44, 2.95, 3.53, 4.01, 1.85 and 2.86 folds of control group, and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05). At the same time, lead content in blood, cerebrospinal fluid,choroid plexus, brain microvessels and bones increased. The increase rate in the amygdala and cerebrospinal fluid ranked first among brain tissue or barrier,which were 4.01 and 3.0 folds respectively. Compared with the control group, Compared with the control group, copper content in cortex,hippocampus, striatum, hypothalamus,amygdala, cerebellum,blood,cerebrospinal fluid,choroid plexus and cerebral microvasculature showed an increasing trend among rats following 3,6,9,12 weeks of lead exposure. Copper content change in the striatum was highest among all brain tissue. The increase rate of copper content in the striatum was at the top among brain tissues. After 12 weeks of lead exposure,copper content in brain microvessels was 4.98 folds higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). After lead exposure at different periods,the iron content in the cortex, hippocampus, striatum,cerebrospinal fluid,choroid plexus and brain microvessels of experimental rats all increased(P<0.05). And the iron increase rate in the hypothalamus or cerebrospinal fluid increase ranked first among brain tissues or body fluid the most obviously. Conclusion With the increase of exposure time, lead exposure can changes in the contents of copper and iron in different brain tissues,body fluids and barriers in rats,among which, the contents of copper and iron in the amygdala,cerebrospinal fluid and brain microvessels increase significantly. This may be related to nerve damage from lead exposure.

Objective To analyze the performance of colposcopy and investigate the diagnosis and treatment characteristics of high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) diagnosed by cervical tissue sampling in post-menopausal women. Methods A retrospective study was performed on 1 449 patients with HSIL diagnosed by cervical tissue sampling under colposcopy and treated by loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP) or extrafascial hysterectomy as the primary therapy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, from November 2015 to October 2017. In order to investigate the diagnosis and treatment of HSIL in post-menopausal women, a case-control study was conducted to compare the difference in performance of colposcopy and treatment modality between 213 post-menopausal patients (14.7%, 213/1 449) and 1 236 pre-menopausal patients (85.3%, 1 236/1 449). Results (1)The proportion of cases pathologically upgraded to cervical cancer was significantly greater in post-menopausal patients (9.4%, 20/213) compared with pre-menopausal patients (3.8%, 47/1 236; P<0.05). (2) The proportion of ≥HSIL diagnosed by colposcopy showed no significant difference between post-menopausal patients (76.1%, 162/213) and pre-menopausal patients (78.2%, 967/1 236; P=0.479). The proportion of typeⅢtransformation zone (TZ) was significantly greater in post-menopausal patients (91.1%, 194/213) compared with pre-menopausal patients (59.1%, 731/1 236; P<0.05). The rate of missed diagnosis of cervical cancer was significantly higher in typeⅢTZ (6.4%, 59/925) compared with typeⅠand(or)ⅡTZ (1.5%, 8/524; P<0.05). The proportion of HSIL detected by endocervical curettage alone was greater in post-menopausal patients (9.9%, 21/213) compared with pre-menopausal patients (2.6%, 32/1 236; P<0.05). (3)Initial treatment with LEEP: the positive rate of endocervical margin was significantly greater in post-menopausal patients (20.5%, 36/176) compared with pre-menopausal patients (10.5%, 130/1 236;P<0.05); in patients who were diagnosed as HSIL after LEEP, the positive rate of endocervical margin and the residual rate were both greater in post-menopausal patients compared with pre-menopausal patients [15.4% (25/162) versus 8.8% (105/1 189), P=0.008; 52.0% (13/25) versus 26.7% (28/105), P=0.014]. (4)Thirty-seven post-menopausal patients were treated by extrafascial hysterectomy as the primary therapy, 5 cases (13.5%, 5/37) were diagnosed as cervical cancer (stage Ⅰa1) after the surgery. Conclusions (1) The lesions of HSIL in post-menopausal patients still have definite features under colposcopy as same as pre-menopausal patients. Endocervical curettage could help detect more HSIL in post-menopausal patients. Compared with pre-menopausal patients, post-menopausal HSIL patients have an increased risk of cervical cancer and are more likely missed by cervical tissue sampling. (2) LEEP has the dual effects of diagnosis and treatment, and is still the recommended treatment for post-menopausal HSIL patients. However, the increase in positive rate of endocervical margin and residual rate requires further active intervention. (3) Considering those post-menopausal HSIL patients who cannot accept conization as the initial treatment, the selection of hysterectomy type requires more thorough study.

OBJECTIVE: To exploit material decomposition analysis in dual-energy spectral computed tomography (CT) to assess the blood supply status of the ground-glass opacity (GGO) in lungs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This retrospective study included 48 patients with lung adenocarcinoma, who underwent a contrast-enhanced dual-energy spectral CT scan before treatment (53 GGOs in total). The iodine concentration (IC) and water content (WC) of the GGO, the contralateral and ipsilateral normal lung tissues were measured in the arterial phase (AP) and their differences were analyzed. IC, normalized IC (NIC), and WC values were compared between the pure ground-glass opacity (pGGO) and the mixed ground-glass opacity (mGGO), and between the group of preinvasive lesions and the minimally invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) and invasive adenocarcinoma (IA) groups. RESULTS: The values of pGGO (IC = 20.9 ± 6.2 mg/mL and WC = 345.1 ± 87.1 mg/mL) and mGGO (IC = 23.8 ± 8.3 mg/mL and WC = 606.8 ± 124.5 mg/mL) in the AP were significantly higher than those of the contralateral normal lung tissues (IC = 15.0 ± 4.9 mg/mL and WC = 156.4 ± 36.8 mg/mL; IC = 16.2 ± 5.7 mg/mL and WC = 169.4 ± 41.0 mg/mL) and ipsilateral normal lung tissues (IC = 15.1 ± 6.2 mg/mL and WC = 156.3 ± 38.8 mg/mL; IC = 15.9 ± 6.0 mg/mL and WC = 174.7 ± 39.2 mg/mL; all p < 0.001). After normalizing the data according to the values of the artery, pGGO (NIC = 0.1 and WC = 345.1 ± 87.1 mg/mL) and mGGO (NIC = 0.2 and WC = 606.8 ± 124.5 mg/mL) were statistically different (p = 0.049 and p < 0.001, respectively), but not for the IC value (p = 0.161). The WC values of the group with preinvasive lesions and MIA (345.4 ± 96.1 mg/mL) and IA (550.1 ± 158.2 mg/mL) were statistically different (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Using dual-energy spectral CT and material decomposition analysis, the IC in GGO can be quantitatively measured which can be an indicator of the blood supply status in the GGO.
