Objective :
To explore the effect of esketamine on anxiety-depressive-like behavior in mice and its rela- tionship with inflammation.
Methods :
SPF grade healthy adult male C57BL/6J mice,weighing 20 -24 g,were used in the exprement.The random number table method was used to divide into 5 groups (n = 8) : control group ( Con group) ,esketamine group (ESK group) ,model group ( LPS group) ,model + esketamine prevention group (LPS + ESK1 group) and model + esketamine treatment group ( LPS + ESK2 group) .An inflammation-induced anxiety-depression model was prepared by intraperitoneal injection of LPS 0. 83 mg / kg.The ESK group was injec- ted with esketamine 10 mg / kg ; LPS group was injected with LPS 0. 83 mg / kg ; LPS + ESK1 group was injected with LPS 0. 83 mg / kg before 24 hours intraperitoneal injection of esketamine 10 mg / kg ; and the LPS + ESK2 group was injected with LPS 0. 83 mg / kg and 30 minutes later with esketamine 10 mg / kg.24 h after intraperitoneal injec- tion of LPS,the anxiety-depression-like behaviors of mice were measured using behavioral experiments.At the end of behavioral experiments,the spleen was taken immediately ; hippocampal tissues were taken and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the contents of interleukin-1 β (IL-1 β) ,tumor necrosis factor al- pha (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) and neuronal pathological changes in hippocampal tissues were observed by HE staining.
Results :
Compared with the Con group,mice in the LPS group showed increased anxiety and depres- sion-like behavior (P<0. 05) ,increased spleen weight / body weight (P <0. 05 ) ,increased hippocampal tissue concentrations of IL-1 β , TNF-α and IL-6 (P<0. 05) ,and increased neuronal degeneration necrosis,there was no statistically significant difference in these indicators in the ESK group compared with the Con group.Compared with the LPS group,mice in the LPS + ESK1 and LPS + ESK2 groups showed reduced anxiety-depression-like behavior (P<0. 05) ,decreased splenic weight / body weight (P <0. 05) ,hippocampal tissue IL-1 β , TNF-α , IL- 6 con- centrations were reduced (P<0. 05) ,and neuronal degeneration necrosis was reduced.Compared with the LPS + ESK1 group,the LPS + ESK2 group showed an increase in the distance travelled in the central area of the open field experiment and the distance into the open arm of the elevated cross maze experiment (P<0. 05) ,a decrease in IL-6 and TNF-α concentrations (P<0. 05) ,and a reduction in the degree of neuronal damage.
Conclusion
Esketamine ameliorates LPS-induced anxiety-depression-like behavior and neuronal damage in mice by a mechanism that may be related to reduced inflammation.

As a potential vectored vaccine,Newcastle disease virus(NDV)has been subject to various studies for vaccine development,while relatively little research has outlined the immunomodulatory effect of the virus in antigen presentation.To elucidate the key inhibitory factor in regulating the interaction of infected dendritic cells(DCs)and T cells,DCs were pretreated with the NDV vaccine strain LaSota as an inhibitor and stimulated with lipopolysaccharide(LPS)for further detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),flow cytometry,immunoblotting,and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).The results revealed that NDV infection resulted in the inhibition of interleukin(IL)-12p40 in DCs through a p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)-dependent manner,thus inhibiting the synthesis of IL-12p70,leading to the reduction in T cell proliferation and the secretion of interferon-γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and IL-6 induced by DCs.Consequently,downregulated cytokines accelerated the infection and viral transmission from DCs to T cells.Furthermore,several other strains of NDV also exhibited inhibitory activity.The current study reveals that NDV can modulate the intensity of the innate?adaptive immune cell crosstalk critically toward viral invasion improvement,highlighting a novel mechanism of virus-induced immunosuppression and providing new perspectives on the improvement of NDV-vectored vaccine.

To establish a disease risk prediction model based on genetic susceptibility genes and environmental risk factors, which can target high-risk population as early as possible, and intervene in the environmental risk factors in this population. Moreover, accurate screening of genetically susceptible populations can enhance the efficiency of health system. In recent years, with the maturation and cost reduction of high-throughput gene testing, gene testing has been widely used in individual clinical decision-making and will play a more important role in medical and health decision-making. The correlation between genetic testing and disease risk prediction is increasing, making it a prominent research topic in this field. This review summarizes the approaches for establishing and evaluating risk prediction models and discusses potential future challenges and opportunities.

Objective :
To study the protective effect and mechanism of remimazolam on cognitive function in septic mice.
Results :
In the LPS group,the number of platform crossing times,the percentage of staying time in the first quadrant,GSH level and SOD activity significantly decreased,and TNF-α, IL-1 β and MDA levels significantly increased.In addition,the arrangement of neurons in CA1 area of hippocampus was disturbed ; cytoplasmic staining was deepened ; and the nucleus was solidly stained.Comparing RM10 ,RM15 and RM20 groups with the LPS group,the number of platform crossing times,the sta- ying time in the first quadrant,GSH level and SOD activity increased,and the levels of TNF-α, IL-1 β and MDA decreased.And the results of hippocampal staining showed a decrease in degenerated neuronal cells.When it came to the comparision in the groups with different doses of remimazolam injection,septic mice in the RM20 group showed less improvement in cognitive dysfunction and inflammatory oxidative stress than the RM10 and RM15 groups.
Conclusion
Remimazolam has a protective effect on cognitive dysfunction in septic mice,and its mechanism may be related to its binding of translocator protein ( TSPO) to inhibit macrophage polarization and thus reduce neuroinflammation and oxidative stress damage.It also reflects that dose of 10 mg / kg and 15 mg / kg has more significant protective effect than that of 20 mg / kg.

Objective:To observe the effect of systematic graded rewarming measures on body temperature and prognosis of patients with moderate and severe trauma [revised trauma score (RTS) < 12] requiring emergency operation.Methods:A prospective randomized double-blind controlled study was conducted. From January 2020 to January 2021, 104 patients who underwent emergency trauma surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were selected as the research object. According to random number table method, the patients were divided into traditional rewarming group and systematic graded rewarming group, with 52 cases in each group. Patients in traditional rewarming group (only record the body temperature without intervention, and start the rewarming process when the body temperature at any time was less than 36 ℃); the patients in the system graded rewarming group start the preventive measures as soon as they were admitted to the hospital, and record the body temperature. When the body temperature at any time was less than 36 ℃, start the graded rewarming process. Observe the rewarming effect, coagulation function, blood gas analysis and postoperative anesthesia recovery time of the two groups and final outcome.Results:With the extension of time, the body temperature of the two groups increased gradually. The body temperature of the systematic grade rewarming group was significantly higher than that of the traditional rewarming group at 2 hours after rewarming and at discharge (℃: 36.23±0.77 vs. 35.84±0.93 at 2 hours after rewarming, 36.54±0.87 vs. 35.82±0.92 at discharge, both P < 0.05). The incidence of subsequent hypothermia was significantly lower than that in the traditional rewarming group [7.7% (4/52) vs. 25.0% (13/52), P < 0.05]. The postoperative activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of the two groups was significantly shorter than that at admission (s: 35.74±8.05 vs. 45.55±28.02 in the systematic rewarming group, P < 0.05; 38.35±6.48 vs. 42.40±13.18 in the traditional rewarming group, P < 0.05); the intraoperative and postoperative pH values in the systematic rewarming group were significantly higher than those at admission (7.33±0.05, 7.36±0.06 vs. 7.30±0.07, both P < 0.05), while there was no significant difference between the intraoperative and postoperative pH values in the traditional rewarming group and those at admission (7.31±0.06, 7.33±0.06 vs. 7.31±0.05, both P > 0.05). The postoperative prothrombin time (PT) and anesthesia recovery time in the systematic graded rewarming group were significantly shorter than those in the traditional rewarming group [PT (s): 15.05±2.44 vs. 17.94±3.48, anesthesia recovery time (hours): 14.40±11.76 vs. 17.35±10.51, all P < 0.05], and the pH value was significantly higher than that in the traditional rewarming group (7.36±0.06 vs. 7.33±0.06, P < 0.05). The systematic graded rewarming group had higher improvement rate and lower disability rate than the traditional rewarming group (76.9% vs. 65.4% and 17.3% vs. 25.0%, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:Systematic graded rewarming measures can improve the hypothermia of emergency trauma patients who received surgery, reduce the incidence of subsequent hypothermia of trauma patients, shorten the time of postoperative resuscitation, improve the coagulation function and blood gas indexes, improve the treatment rate, and reduce the incidence of disability.

Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological features in diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and non-diabetic kidney disease (NDKD) patients, and provide reference for patients who will receive renal biopsy with diabetes mellitus complicated with chronic kidney disease.Methods:The patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus complicated with chronic kidney disease who underwent renal biopsy were collected through the database at the Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University from February 2002 to June 2018. According to the results of renal biopsy, they were divided into DKD group and NDKD group (including DKD+NDKD). The clinical manifestations and pathological types were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 507 patients were eventually included in the study. There were 114 cases (22.5%) with DKD and 393 cases (77.5%) with NDKD. Pathologically, the most common pathological types of NDKD were membranous nephropathy (30.0%) and IgA nephropathy (19.1%). Among NDKD patients, 5.6% patients had DKD combing with NDKD. In term of the clinical manifestations, DKD patients had a longer history of diabetes (>1 year, 76.3% vs 36.1%, P<0.001), higher quantity of urinary protein [3.69(1.70, 6.74) g/24 h vs 2.21(0.91, 4.97) g/24 h, P<0.001], higher serum creatinine [117.5(85.8, 194.5) μmol/L vs 89.0(68.0, 143.8) μmol/L, P<0.001] than NDKD patients. But the hemoglobin [(105.07±20.85) g/L vs (124.41±25.02) g/L, P=0.002] and cholesterol [(5.69±1.87) mmol/L vs (6.43±2.75) mmol/L, P=0.001] in DKD patients were lower than those in NDKD patients. Logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes mellitus history ( OR=4.162, 95% CI 1.717-10.098, P=0.002) , higer systolic pressure (every 1 mmHg, OR=1.028, 95% CI 1.011-1.045, P=0.001) , history of antihypertensive medication ( OR=3.141, 95% CI 1.496-6.591, P=0.002), diabetic retinopathy ( OR=5.561, 95% CI 2.361-13.100, P<0.001) and higher glycated hemoglobin level (every 1%, OR=1.680, 95% CI 1.333-2.118, P<0.001) were related factors of DKD, while hematuria ( OR=2.781, 95% CI 1.334-5.798, P=0.006) and higher hemoglobin level (every 1 g/L, OR=1.022, 95% CI 1.008-1.037, P=0.002) were related factors of NDKD. Conclusions:There are differences in clinical manifestations and pathological types between DKD and NDKD. The history of diabetes, antihypertensive medication, fundus examination, higher of proteinuria and glycosylated hemoglobin may predict DKD, while hematuria and higher level of hemoglobin may have certain guiding significance for the diagnosis of NDKD. The indication of renal biopsy in patients with diabetes mellitus complicated with chronic kidney disease should include comprehensive clinical manifestations.

Objective To investigate the regular spot check implementation of central sterile supply department(CSSD) at hospitals of all grades across China and analyze its influencing factors to provide the basis for further improvement of regular cleaning quality inspection. Methods Cross-sectional study was conducted form February to July of 2017,and 132 hospitals all over the country were selected to investigate with the questionnaire the current status of CSSD management model, staffing and regular cleaning quality inspection. Results The ratio of the nursing staff and the number of beds was 1.15:100,the ratio of staff and the number of beds was 2. 00:100. 81. 82% (n =108) of the hospitals adopted the centralized management model. The qualification rate for regular spot check execution was 87.12% (n=115). The results of multiple logistic regression showed that the centralized management model was more conducive to the regular spot check than the non-centralized management model (OR=4.71,95% CI:1.05-21.08). Conclusions The centralized management model proves positive for the implementation of regular spot checks;and CSSDs should pay more attention to the regular spot check of the cleaning quality.
