Purpose::Traumatic brain injury (TBI), currently a major global public health problem, imposes a significant economic burden on society and families. We aimed to quantify and predict the incidence and severity of TBI by analyzing its incidence, prevalence, and years lived with disability (YLDs). The epidemiological changes in TBI from 1990 to 2019 were described and updated to provide a reference for developing prevention, treatment, and incidence-reducing measures for TBI.Methods::A secondary analysis was performed on the incidence, prevalence, and YLDs of TBI by sex, age group, and region ( n =21,204 countries and territories) between 1990 and 2019 using the Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study 2019. Proportions in the age-standardized incidence rate due to underlying causes of TBI and proportions of minor and moderate or severe TBI were also reported. Results::In 2019, there were 27.16 million (95% uncertainty intervals ( UI): 23.36 -31.42) new cases of TBI worldwide, with age-standardized incidence and prevalence rates of 346 per 100,000 population (95% UI: 298 -401) and 599 per 100,000 population (95% UI: 573 -627), respectively. From 1990 to 2019, there were no significant trends in global age-standardized incidence (estimated annual percentage changes: -0.11%, 95% UI: -0.18% --0.04%) or prevalence (estimated annual percentage changes: 0.01%, 95% UI: -0.04% -0.06%). TBI caused 7.08 million (95% UI: 5.00 -9.59) YLDs in 2019, with age-standardized rates of 86.5 per 100,000 population (95% UI: 61.1 -117.2). In 2019, the countries with higher incidence rates were mainly distributed in Central Europe, Eastern Europe, and Australia. The 2019 global age-standardized incidence rate was higher in males than in females. The 2019 global incidence of moderate and severe TBI was 182.7 per 100,000 population, accounting for 52.8% of all TBI, with falls and road traffic injuries being the main causes in most regions. Conclusions::The incidence of moderate and severe TBI was slightly higher in 2019, and TBI still accounts for a significant portion of the global injury burden. The likelihood of moderate to severe TBI and the trend of major injury under each injury cause from 1990 to 2019 and the characteristics of injury mechanisms in each age group are presented, providing a basis for further research on injury causes in each age group and the future establishment of corresponding policies and protective measures.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of Aurantii Fructus Immaturus, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, and their combination on slow transit constipation via PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin pathway-mediated mitophagy. MethodFifty-six male SD rats were randomly assigned into normal group, model group, natural recovery group, Aurantii Fructus Immaturus group, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma group, Aurantii Fructus Immaturus combined with Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma group, and mosapride group, with 8 rats in each group. Slow transit constipation model was established by gavage with loperamide (3 mg·kg-1·d-1) for 14 days in other groups except the normal group. After successful modeling, except that the model group was continuously induced by loperamide, the normal group and the natural recovery group were administrated with 0.9% normal saline by gavage, and the rats in the Aurantii Fructus Immaturus (1.35 g·kg-1·d-1) group, the Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma (2.7 g·kg-1·d-1) group, the Aurantii Fructus Immaturus combined with Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma (4.05 g·kg-1·d-1) group, and the mosapride (1.56 mg·kg-1·d-1) group were administrated with corresponding drugs by gavage for 7 days. The amount of feces, fecal water content, and intestinal propulsion rate of rats were determined. The pathological changes of the colon were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining and Alcian blue-periodic acid-Schiff (AB-PAS) staining. The activity of respiratory chain complex and the ultrastructure of the colon tissue were determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry and observed by transmission electron microscopy, respectively. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(Real-time PCR) was employed to determine the mRNA levels of PINK1, Parkin, and p62, and Western blot to determine the protein levels of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3), PINK1, and Parkin. ResultCompared with the normal group, the model group and the natural recovery group showed decreases in the amount of feces, fecal water content, intestinal propulsion rate (P<0.05,P<0.01), and activities of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ in the colon tissue (P<0.05,P<0.01). Further, the mRNA levels of PINK1 and Parkin and the protein levels of PINK1, Parkin, and LC3 were up-regulated (P<0.01) and the mRNA level of p62 was down-regulated in the model group (P<0.05) and the natural recovery group. Compared with the model group and the natural recovery group, the Aurantii Fructus Immaturus combined with Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma group showed increased amount of feces, fecal water content, intestinal propulsion rate, and activities of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ (P<0.05,P<0.01). Moreover, the combination meliorated the degree of mitochondrial swelling in the colon tissue, down-regulated the mRNA levels of PINK1 and Parkin and the protein levels of PINK1, Parkin, and LC3 (P<0.05,P<0.01), and up-regulated the mRNA level of p62 (P<0.05). ConclusionAurantii Fructus Immaturus and Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, and their combination may remedy the colonic motility disorders in rats with slow transit constipation by blocking PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway to inhibit the excessive mitophagy in interstitial cells of Cajal in the colon tissue.
