ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the association between nocturnal sleep duration and behavioral problems in Chinese school-age Children, and to provide reference for the development of recommended nocturnal sleep duration for school-age children.@*Methods@#A total of 4 160 school-age children selected through cluster random sampling in Guangzhou urban areas. Caregivers reported children’s behavioral problems and sleep habits using parent version of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) and sleep quality questionnaires.@*Results@#The average nocturnal sleep duration per day of school-age children is (9.07±0.76)h, the proportion of children having slept less than 9 h/d was 46%(1 912). There were statistically significant differences in the distribution of sleep duration among children with different chronotype and maternal education levels(P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in children’s sedentary behavior duration and nap duration at different sleep duration(P<0.05). The association between children’s nocturnal sleep duration and behavioral problems was typically nonlinear and U-shaped(P<0.05). The inflection points of nocturnal sleep duration for total difficulties, emotional problems, conduct problems and peer problems were 9.65, 9.25, 9.42 and 9.30 h, respectively.@*Conclusion@#Nocturnal sleep duration shows a nonlinear association with behavioral problems in school-age children. The optimal range of nocturnal sleep duration for mental health is between 9 to 10 hours and the problems of psychological behavior were the least among school-age children.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) combined with low-dose cyclosporin A ( CsA) on corneal transplantation rejection and its mechanism. Methods A fully allogeneic rat cornea transplant model (Wistar rats to Lewis rats) was created. Thirty-six model rats were divided into MSCs group, CsA group and MSCs+CsA group randomly by using the random number table method,with 12 rats for each group. In each group,six rats were used for the evalution of symptom observation and six for the assay of immune factor. Three days after corneal transplantation,slit lamp microscope was used to observe and record the vascularization,edema and opacity scores of corneal graft. After 18 days,spleen T helper cell(Th)1 and Th2 cytokines were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA ). The use and care of the animals complied with Regulations for the Administration of Affair Concerning Experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission. This study protocol was approved by Ethic Committee of Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital (No. TMUaMEC2017028). Results The survival time of corneal grafts in MSCs+CsA group was prolonged in comparison with the MSCs group and CsA group,with significant differences between them([21.3±3.9]days vs. (14.8±2.4)days; [21.3±3.9]days vs. [16.0±1.1]days) (P=0.003,0.004). Eighteen days after corneal transplantation,corneal opacity scores were 3.17±0.17, 3.00±0.00 and 2.17±0.17,corneal neovascularization scores were 2.67 ± 0.21,2.33 ± 0.21 and 1.83 ± 0.21, respectively in the MSCs group, CsA group and MSCs+ CsA group, showing significant differences among the three groups (F=15.500,P<0.01; F=4.524,P=0.029). The corneal opacity scores and corneal neovascularization scores in the MSCs+ CsA group were significantly lower than those in the MSCs group and CsA group(all at P<0.05). Interleukin(IL)-2,IL-4,IL-10,and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) concentrations were all significantly different among the MSCs group,CsA group and MSCs+ CsA group (F=15.000,12.810,10.720,17.960,all at P< 0.01). Compared with the MSCs group and CsA group,Th1 subsets cytokines IFN-γ and IL-2 concentrations in the MSCs+CsA group were significantly lower,and Th2 subsets cytokines IL-4 and IL-10 concentrations were significantly increased in the MSCs+CsA group in comparison with the MSCs group and CsA group ( all at P<0.05 ). Conclusions The combination of MSCs with low-dose CsA can effectively ameliorate immunological rejection by the modulation of the balance of Th1/Th2.

ABSTRACT

Background Reasearches showed that α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) inhibits inflammation and ameliorates the ocular surface abnormalities in a scopolamine-induced dry eye rat model,and the managing effect of sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) on dry eyes also has been determined.However,whether α-MSH can enhance the therapeutic effects of CMC remains to be investigated.Objective This study was to investigate the protective effects of α-MSH combined with CMC on ocular surface in a scopolamine-induced dry eye rat model.Methods Sixty clean female Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal control group,model control group,NaCl group,CMC group,α-MSH group and α-MSH+CMC group,and 10 rats for each group.The dry eye models were established by subcutaneous injection of scopolamine hydrobromide at 9:00,12:00,15:00 and 18:00 per day for 28 days.0.9% NaCl solution,1×10 3 mg/ml α-MSH solution,0.5% CMC eye drop,and 1 ×10-3 mg/ml α-MSH+0.5% CMC solution were topically administered twice a day (8:00,17:00) since the initial day of modeling according to grouping.Shirmer Ⅰ test (S Ⅰ t),breakup time of tear film (BUT) and corneal fluorescence staining were performed before and 7,14,21,28 days after the application of drugs.At 28 days following the administration of drugs,the eyeballs of the rats were collected.Hemotoxylin and eosin staining was employed to examine the morphology of corneas,and periodic acid schiff (PAS) staining was used to count the conjunctival goblet cells.This study protocol was approved by Experimental Animal Ethic Committee of Tianjin Medical University (SYXK 2009-0001),and the use and care of the rats complied with ARVO Statement.Results The S Ⅰ t and BUT values were significantly reduced,and the corneal fluorescence staining scores were significantly increased over time following modeling in the model control group (all at P<0.01).No significant differences were found in the S Ⅰ t,BUT and corneal fluorescence staining scores between model control group and NaCl group at various time points (all at P>0.05).At 7,14 and 21 days after intervention,the S Ⅰ t values were (4.800±0.789),(4.100±0.516) and (4.300±0.856) mm in the α-MSH+CMC group,which were considerably higher than (2.875 ±0.719),(2.375 ±0.619) and (2.532±0.957)mm in the NaCl group (all at P<0.01).At 7 days after intervention,the BUT values were (4.938± 1.843) seconds and (5.000±1.491) seconds in the α-MSH group and α-MSH+CMC group,which were significantly higher than (3.250±1.000) seconds in the NaCl group (both at P<0.01).The corneal fluorescence staining scores in the CMC group,α-MSH group and α-MSH+CMC group were significantly lower than that in the NaCl group,with the lowest score in the α-MSH +CMC group (all at P<0.05).The thickening of corneal epithelial layer,corneal edema and arrangement disorder of corneal stroma were found in the model control group and NaCl group;while slight corneal edema and epithelial cell proliferation were exhibited in the α-MSH+CMC group by hemotoxylin and eosin staining.PAS staining showed that the number of goblet cells was much more in the CMC group,α-MSH group and α-MSH+ CMC group than that in the model control group and NaCl group (all at P < 0.01).Conclusions The sole application of α-MSH or CMC alleviates ocular surface damage and morphological abnormality to certain extent,and the combination of α-MSH and CMC generates more effective protection in comparison with sole administration of α-MSH or CMC.The early application of the drugs plays an improvement role in tear secretion and tear film stability in dry eyes.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate whether the stimulation on eyes of bendazac lysine eyedrops could be reduced by cold storage.Methods  Mate design scheme and double-blind clinical trial were performed. 160 healthy eyes was divided into two groups: the test group was given bendazac lysine eyedrops which was stored in refrigerator at 4℃ over night, and the control group was given it which was stored at room temperature.Results ln the control group and the test group, the occuring rate of stimulation was 19.30% and 6.25%. The cases of B、C stimulation degrees were 31 and 10; the average stimulation degrees of each group were 1.21 and 1.07, the scoring change for eye stimulation were 1.57±1.50,0.79±1.40,all respectively. The statistical difference was significant (P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion The eye stimulation of bendazac lysine eyedrops can be reduced by cold storage.
