Effects of paliperidone palmitate long-acting injection on clinical symptoms and social function in patients with schizophrenia in communities / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective:To understand the effects of paliperidone palmitate (PP) long-acting injection on hospitalization, psychiatric symptoms, individual and social function of community patients with schizophrenia.Methods:From March 2021 to September 2022, 239 patients with schizophrenia in the community of Zhongshan city were treated with PP injection in a 1-month dosage form for 1 year.The hospitalization rate was compared before and after the treatment.The brief psychiatric rating scale (BPRS), modified overt aggression scales(MOAS), clinical global impressions-severity(CGI-S), and personal and social performance scale (PSP) were used to evaluate psychiatric symptoms and personal social function at baseline, at the end of the 8th week, the end of the 6th month and the end of the 12th month after treatment.Repeated measurement analysis of variance was used to compare the results at different times of treatment, and Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors affecting treatment by SPSS 26.0.Results:One year after treatment the number of hospitalization was lower than that before (0(1) times, 0(0) times)( Z=-4.43, P<0.01), and the hospitalization days was lower than before (43(83.3) days, 0(0) days)( Z=-8.65, P<0.01) for the schizophrenic patients.The total BPRS score for schizophrenic patients decreased from (45.3±9.2) to (27.5±9.0) after 1 year of treatment( χ2=465.20, P<0.01), and the external aggressive behavior score was lower than the baseline score (1(7), 0(0))( F=308.36, P<0.01). The total effective rates were 30.5%(73/239), 77.4%(185/239) and 81.6%(195/239) after 8 weeks, 6 months and 1 year of treatment, respectively.The impairment in the four aspects of personal and social functioning were improved to varying degrees (all P<0.01). The severity of the disease was reduced 1 year after treatment.And the proportions of partial to very severe, moderate, none or mild were 10.0%(24/239), 56.5%(135/239), and 33.5%(80/239). Ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that younger age at treatment ( β=-0.08, OR=0.93, 95% CI=0.87-0.99) and older age at first onset ( β=0.07, OR=1.07, 95% CI=1.01-1.14) were associated with better treatment outcomes. Conclusion:Long-term injection of paliperidone palmitate can effectively improve the mental symptoms and individual social function of community patients with schizophrenia.

Study on the correlation between air pollution and acute cerebrovascular diseases in Jining / 公共卫生与预防医学

Objective To explore the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of air pollutants PM2.5, PM10, SO2, CO, and NO2, and their effects on acute cerebrovascular diseases in Jining City. Methods The data of patients with acute cerebrovascular disease treated in a 3A hospital in Jining from October 1, 2017, to November 31, 2019, were retrospectively collected. Combined with the air pollution data of 29 air quality monitoring stations in Jining City, the Kriging interpolation model was used to analyze the overall situation of air pollution in Jining. On this basis, the relationship between air pollution and acute cerebrovascular diseases in Jining City was analyzed. Results In Jining City, the incidence of acute cerebrovascular disease in male was higher than that in female, and the incidence in rural areas was significantly higher than that in urban areas. The spatial distribution showed a trend of gradual accumulation from southeast to northwest. The daily average concentrations of PM2.5 and PM10 were higher in winter and spring than in summer and autumn. The results of Kriging interpolation analysis showed that the concentrations of these air pollutants formed aggregation points in varying degrees. The spatial distribution of acute cerebrovascular disease patients in Jining City was highly consistent with the spatial distribution of air pollutant concentrations. Spearman correlation analysis showed that CO, SO2, and NO2 were positively correlated with the incidence of acute cerebrovascular disease, while the correlation between PM2.5 and PM10 and the incidence of acute cerebrovascular disease was not significant. Conclusion Some air pollutants such as CO, SO2, and NO2 have a positive correlation with the incidence of acute cerebrovascular disease, and the prevalence has a certain population and regional distribution. In the future work of cerebrovascular disease prevention, personal protection should be done according to local conditions and living environment of specific people.

Role of complement activation and CVF intervention in lung inflammatory injury induced by influenza virus / 军事医学

Objective To investigate the mechanism of pulmonary inflammation induced by influenza virus , and provide reference for the development of effective drugs for viral pneumonia .Methods An influenza PR8 infection mouse model was established .The levels of inflammatory cytokines and complement molecules were determined using RT -PCR and ELISA.The pathological changes were examined using biopsy .The complement inhibitor cobra venom factor ( CVF) was injected intraperitoneally at a dose of 50 μg/( kg· 24 h) , and then body mass .The survival rate and inflammatory factors were examined .Results Compared with the control group , the expressions of complement regulatory molecule Crry and CD59 were significantly decreased (P<0.01), while those of complement C9 and complement receptor C3aR and C5aR were significantly increased in the lungs of influenza model mice (P<0.01).Pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-6 and IFN-γwere highly expressed , but anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-2 was lowly expressed in serum .Treatment with CVF caused a sight body mass loss, a survival rate increase and a lung index decrease (P <0.05).Moreover, an IL-2 expression increase and a decrease of IL-6, TNF -αand INF-γexpression were observed in CVF treatment mice ( P< 0.05).Conclusion Inhibition of complement activation can increase the survival rate of mice with influenza pneumonia and decrease pulmonary indexes .thus delaying the pathogenesis of PR 8.

Stable expression of targeting complement inhibitor CR2-CD59 in Chinese hamster ovary cells / 第三军医大学学报

Objective To obtain Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines that stably express a targeting complement inhibitor CR2-CD59.Methods The recombinant plasmid PEE14.1-CR2-CD59 was constru-cted by cloning the DNA fragment CR2-CD59 into plasmid PEE14.1,and the obtained plasmid was transfected into CHO cells by FuGENE 6.The clones with stable high expression of target fragment were selected by methionine sulfoximine (MSX),the expression of CR2-CD59 was analyzed by ELISA,SDS-PAGE and Western blotting analysis.Results Several stable expression clones were obtained,and CR2-CD59 was highly expressed in the secret form in CHO cells.SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the molecular weight of the recombined protein CR2-CD59 was consistent with the predicted one.ELISA and Western blotting results revealed that the CR2-CD59 could react with both anti-human CR2 and anti-human CD59 polyclonal antibodies.Compared with serum-containing medium,the protein was highly expressed in serum-free medium (P

Clinical analysis of 88 cases of lumbar inter-vertebral disc protrusion treated with rapid angulation rotation traction / 第三军医大学学报

Objective　To evaluate the therapeutic effect of rapid angulation rotation traction for lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion. Methods　A total of 88 patients (66 male and 22 female;age: 18-65), with a history of 2 days to 10 years were analyzed. Among them 20 cases were central protrusion 68 cases were lateral protrusion. Traction range: 60-65 mm, angle: 20°-25°, rotation degree: 20°-25°, traction time: 3 s-1 min. The process of treatment was computer designed. The traction was then 1 to 3 times, with a interval of 4-7 days between two treatments. Results　The effective rate was 96% for the case with history <1 month 96% and 85% for cases with history >1 month (P<0.01). The effective rate was 62% for central protrusion, and 87% for lateral protrusion respectively. χ2 test showed the difference was not significant. Conclusion　The rapid angulation rotation is an effective treatment for lumbar inter-vertebral disc protrusion and this non operative method should be used as early as possible.
