Design and Development Strategies for Multicomponent Co-delivery System of Traditional Chinese Medicine / 中国实验方剂学杂志

Chinese materia medica has a wide range of clinical applications， but it has many active ingredients with different physicochemical properties， and the target organs， action pathways and mechanisms for different ingredients to exert their efficacy are not the same. Therefore， it is difficult to design and develop a co-delivery system loading multiple components of Chinese materia medica to maximize the synergistic therapeutic efficiency. Based on the characteristics of effectiveness and functionality of active ingredients， the strategies for multi-component co-delivery of Chinese materia medica can be categorized into two types：firstly， based on the effectiveness of active ingredients， new carriers such as liposomes， nanoparticles can be constructed to load multi-components of Chinese materia medica. secondly， based on the functionality of some active ingredients of Chinese materia medica， they are employed in the construction of co-delivery system， which can give play to the dual characteristics of their own efficacy and preparation functions. In this paper， we summarized the relevant research progress of the above two types of multi-component co-delivery strategies， and mainly discussed the pharmaceutical functions of the active ingredients in co-delivery systems， in order to find a more suitable multi-component co-delivery strategy， promoting the design and development of new delivery systems of Chinese materia medica.

Electrochemical Detection of Metronidazole Based on MnMoO4/g-C3N4 Modified Electrode / 分析化学

MnMoO4/g-C3N4 nanocomposites were synthesized by a hydrothermal method.The MnMoO4/g-C3N4 nanocomposites were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR)and transmission electron microscopy(SEM)to analyze their morphology and structure.The MnMoO4/g-C3N4 was coated on the surface of the glassy carbon electrode(GCE)by a drop coating method and thus a electrochemical sensor for detection of metronidazole(MNZ)was successfully constructed.The electrochemical properties of the MnMoO4/g-C3N4/GCE electrode were characterized by cyclic voltammetry(CV)and differential pulse voltammetry(DPV).The effects of pH value and scanning rate on the current response were investigated.Under optimal experimental conditions,this electrochemical sensor showed a wide linear detection range(0.5-2400 μmol/L)and a low limit of detection(LOD = 1.33 nmol/L,3σ/k)for detection of MNZ.Besides,this sensor showed excellent selectivity,stability and reproducibility.The sensor was used to detect MNZ residue in eggs and milk samples,with recoveries of 97.7%-103.7%and 96.9%-102.4%,and relative standard deviations of 1.1%-2.2%,respectively,indicating that the prepared MnMoO4/g-C3N4/GCE sensor could be successfully applied to detection of MNZ in food samples.

Analysis of influencing factors of tube bleeding and its correlation with perioperative complications after coronary artery bypass grafting / 中华胸心血管外科杂志

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of increased tube bleeding within 24 h after coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) and its correlation with perioperative complications.Methods:This study was a prospective observational study. The patients with CABG surgery were enrolled in Beijing Anzhen Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University from May 2018 to December 2021. The age, sex, complications, blood tests and other clinical data of outpatients were collected. Left ventricular ejection fraction(EF) and left ventricular enddiastolic diameter(LVED) were detected by echocardiography. MGF and PI of grafts were recorded during CABG. Perioperative troponin Ⅰ, blood clotting pentathlon, all-cause death, perioperative myocardial fraction, atrial fibrillation and stroke were collected. According to the tube bleeding within 24 h after operation, the patients were divided into increased group(tube bleeding>1 000 ml) and normal group(tube bleeding≤1 000 ml). The preoperative baseline data, intraoperative indexes and perioperative complications were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression, Spearman and linear regression models were used to analyze the correlation between tube bleeding within 24 h and clinical data.Results:304 patients underwent CABG were enrolled. There were 185 cases(60.9%) in the increased group and 119 cases(39.1%) in the normal group. After adjusting for age, sex and BMI, multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male( OR=2.40, 95% CI: 1.38-4.18, P=0.002), history of stroke( OR=2.37, 95% CI: 1.07-5.26, P=0.034), and history of myocardial infarction( OR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.13-2.91, P=0.014) could significantly increase the risk of tube bleeding within 24 h after surgery. The average blood flow of the anterior descending branch( OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.99-1.00, P=0.022) and the circumflex branch( OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, P=0.003) during the operation was significantly negatively correlated with the increase of tube bleeding within 24 h after surgery, while the PI of anterior descending branch( OR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.26-2.61, P=0.001), circumflex branch( OR=1.45, 95% CI: 1.07-1.97, P=0.017), right coronary artery( OR=1.84, 95% CI: 1.29-2.62, P=0.001) were positively correlated with the increase of tube bleeding within 24 h after operation. In addition, prothrombin time significantly increased the risk of increased tube bleeding within 24 h after surgery( OR=1.16, 95% CI: 1.03-1.30, P=0.018). Linear regression analysis showed that there was a significant positive linear correlation between ICU time and tube bleeding within 24 h after surgery( OR=0.17, 95% CI: 0.96-4.58, P=0.003), and a significant negative linear correlation between postoperative ejection fraction and tube bleeding within 24 h( OR=-0.25, 95% CI: -33.18--13.07, P<0.001). Conclusion:Increased tube bleeding within 24 h after CABG is most common in males and patients with a history of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular infarction. Better graft hemodynamic parameters can reduce the tube bleeding within 24 h after the operation, further improve cardiac function and reduce ICU time.

Influence of nursing students empathy on moral courage： the path of moral sensitivity / 四川精神卫生

BackgroundNurses' moral courage is a special type of altruistic behavior， which is considered to be a key factor to improve patient safety. Empathy level can positively predict altruistic behavior， and moral sensitivity exerts an obvious mediation role in the positive prediction. At present， there is no relevant research to explore the path role of moral sensitivity in the relationship between empathy and moral courage. ObjectiveTo verify the mediation role of moral sensitivity in the relationship between empathy and moral courage among nursing students， so as to provide references for increasing the moral courage among nursing students. MethodsFrom June 1 to June 30， 2022， a total of 602 nursing students were recruited via convenience sampling from a tertiary grade A hospital in Mianyang， and participants were assessed using Interpersonal Reactivity Index-Chinese （IRI-C）， Moral Sensitivity Questionnaire-Revised Chinese Version （MSQ-R-CV） and Nurses' Moral Courage Scale （NMCS）. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the correlation among above scales. The Process macro plug-in for SPSS was used to test the mediation effect of moral sensitivity on the relationship between empathy and moral courage. ResultsA total of 602 valid questionnaires were collected， with an effective recovery rate of 96.78%. IRI-C score of nursing students was positively correlated with MSQ-R-CV score and NMCS score （r=0.269， 0.146， P<0.01）. MSQ-R-CV score was positively correlated with NMCS score （r=0.722， P<0.01）. The mediation effect model was established with IRI-C score as independent variable， MSQ-R-CV score as intermediary variable， and NMCS score as dependent variable. Analysis showed that the direct effect of empathy on moral courage among nursing students was not significant （direct effect value of -0.052， 95% CI： -0.178~0.008）， while analysis yielded a significant indirect effect of empathy on moral courage via moral sensitivity （indirect effect value of 0.189， 95% CI： 0.209~0.407）. ConclusionThe moral sensitivity of nursing students plays a significant mediation role in the relationship between empathy and moral courage. ［Funded by 2022 Higher Education Teaching Research and Reform Project of Southwest Medical University （number， JG2022239）］

A Practical Randomized Controlled Study on Effectiveness of TCM Syndrome Differentiation Treatment for Subsolid Pulmonary Nodules / 肿瘤防治研究

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on subsolid nodule (SSN). Methods A practical randomized controlled study method, including 254 SSN patients was adopted. The patients were divided into the TCM (102 cases) and follow-up (152 cases) groups. The follow-up group received regular check-ups in accordance with the guidelines, and the TCM group received TCM syndrome differentiation treatment for 24 weeks. The two groups were compared in terms of the changes in their SSN diameter, SSN number, TCM symptom score, and overall therapeutic effect before and after treatment. Adverse reactions and safety indicators were also recorded. Results The TCM group showed a significantly higher effective rate of treatment (16.7%) than the follow-up group (2.6%) (P<0.01). Compared with their condition before treatment, the TCM group showed no significant changes in their SSN diameter and number but presented considerably reduced fatigue, yellow and red urine symptoms, and overall TCM symptom score (P<0.05). The follow-up group exhibited significantly increased diameter and number of SSN (P<0.01). The follow-up group showed the significantly higher increase in SSN diameter after treatment than the TCM group (P<0.05). Moreover, the follow-up group showed significantly higher fatigue, depression, yellow and red urine symptom scores, and overall TCM symptom score than the TCM group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusion TCM treatment for SSN has a distinct clinical efficacy, reduces the malignant risk of SSN and improves clinical symptoms of SSN patients, and is safe and feasible.

The Inheritance and Development of the Theory of "Supplementation/Drainage for Bitter-Desire of the Five Viscera" by Representative Physicians of Yishui School / 中医杂志

The theory of "supplementation/drainage for bitter-desire of the five viscera" originated from Elementary Questions （《素问》）， which is an important origin of the theory of supplementation and drainage prescription. By exploring the connotation of the theory of "supplementation/drainage for bitter-desire of the five viscera"， and adopting the archaeological method of literature research， we collected the relevant writings on the theory of "supplementation/drainage for bitter-desire of the five viscera" by the representative physicians of Yishui school， such as ZHANG Yuansu， LI Gao， WANG Haogu， LUO Tianyi， LI Zhongzi， etc.， combed through the inheritance and development of this theory， and explored the contribution of Yishui school on this. It was found that all the physicians of Yishui school， on the basis of inheriting the theory of "supplementation/drainage for bitter-desire of the five viscera"， combined with their own clinical practice to develop this theory， and promoted the application and development of this theory in clinic， such as ZHANG Yuansu's theories of cold-heat deficiency-excess in viscera and bowels， and the theory of viscera and bowels prescription， and LI Gao's theory of ascending and descending， floating and sinking， supplementing and draining in visceral qi， and other academic thoughts rooted in the theory of "supplementation/drainage for bitter-desire of the five viscera" of Elementary Questions. By clarifying the inheritance and development of this theory by physicians of Yishui school， we can deeply understand the connotation and the embedded rules of prescription of this theory， which can not only guide the clinical medication in traditional Chinese medicine， but also provide reference value to the research on the academic thoughts of the Yishui school and the theory of fsupplementation/drainage for bitter-desire of the five viscera.

Mechanism of hippocampal CRHR1 regulating chronic stress-induced learning and memory impairment in early aged mice / 安徽医科大学学报

Objective @# To explore the mechanism of hippocampal corticotropin-releasing hormone ( CRH) receptor type 1 ( CRHR1 ) in chronic stress-induced learning and memory impairment in early aged mice．@*Methods@#C57BL /6J mice aged 12 －14 months were divided into two groups according to gender，and then divided into wild type (WT) group and hippocampal CRHR1 conditional gene knockout (KN) group according to genotype．Mice in each group were randomly divided into control group and stress group，and the stress group was subjected to chronic unpredictable stress ( CUS ) for 30 days． Genotyping of mice was performed using polymerase chain reaction ( PCR) ，agarose gel electrophoresis and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) ．The new object rec- ognition experiment and Morris Water maze measured learning and memory ability．Golgi-Cox staining was used to observe damage to hippocampal neuronal dendrites． The protein expressions of target protein of rapamycin (mTOR) ，p-mTOR (Ser2448) ，ribosomal protein S6 kinase ( p70S6K) and p-p70S6K ( Thr389 / Thr412 ) were detected by Western blot．Serum levels of corticotropin releasing hormone ( CRH) were measured by ELISA. @*Results @# Compared to mice without chronic stress，the cognitive coefficient of WT stress groups decreased after chron- ic stress，and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜0. 05) ，while there was no significant difference in cognitive coefficient of KN stress groups before and after chronic stress．Compared with the WT stress group，the escape latency of the WT control group was shortened (P＜0. 05) ，and the number of crossing the platform and tar- get quadrant increased (P ＜0. 01) ，and there was no significant difference in the KN groups above． Compared with the WT control group，the WT stress group had a significant reduction in the neuronal complexity in the hipp- ocampal CA1，CA3 and DG regions (P ＜0. 05) and significant reductions in the expression of p-mTOR and p- p70S6K in the hippocampus (P＜0. 05) ．There was no significant difference in the expression of p-mTOR between the KN stress group and the KN control group (P＞0. 05) ，except that the expression of p-mTOR in the hippocam- pus of the female group decreased (P＜0. 05) ．In addition，the serum level of CRH in the stress group was higher than that in the control group (P＜0. 01) ．@*Conclusion @#Hippocampal CRHR1 regulates learning and memory im- pairment and neuronal dendrite damage in early aged mice induced by chronic stress．The mechanism may be that high levels of CRH induced by chronic stress cannot bind to CRHR1 receptor，thereby enhancing the expression of down-regulated mTOR / p70S6K signaling pathway.

Signal mining and evaluation of adverse events of four biological agents for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for safe drug use in the clinic by mining the adverse drug event （ADE） signals of 4 kinds of biological agents for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease （IBD）. METHODS ADE data of infliximab， adalimumab， ustekinumab and vedolizumab were collected from the FDA adverse event reporting system between the first quarter in 2004 and the fourth quarter in 2022， and were mined by using reporting odds ratio （ROR） method and proportional reporting ratio （PRR） method. The system organ class （SOC） was used for the classification and statistics of drug ADE terminology. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS A total of 65 173， 247 894， 37 596 and 6 134 ADE reports were retrieved for the above 4 biologic agents， involving 1 664， 1 731， 588， 303 ADE signals and 27， 27， 24， 26 SOC， respectively. The largest number of ADE reported of infliximab were various musculoskeletal and connective tissue diseases， and the signal intensity of disseminated tuberculosis was stronger. The largest number of ADE reported of adalimumab were systemic disease and various reactions at the administration site， and the signal intensity of papular at the injection site was stronger. The largest number of ADE reported of ustekinumab were various injuries， poisoning and operation complications， and the signal intensity of latent tuberculosis was slightly stronger. The largest number of ADE reported of vedolizumab were systemic diseases and various reactions at the administration site， and the signal intensity of shorter treatment response time was stronger. When clinically administering the four drugs， it is crucial to pay close attention to common ADEs and other ADE not mentioned in the drug label. For infliximab， clinicians should exercise caution due to the potential risk of synovitis and basal cell carcinoma； when prescribing adalimumab， caution should be exercised due to ADEs related to synovitis and hernia； for ustekinumab， the ADE associated with hepatobiliary diseases should be vigilant； for vedolizumab， clinicians should be vigilant for blood in the stool， increasing frequency of defecation. Except for ustekinumab， the other 3 biological agents also require attention for ADE associated with pregnancy.

Investigation of infestation and disposal of bedbugs in Shanghai / 上海预防医学

ObjectiveTo investigate the infestation and disposal of bedbugs in Shanghai， and provide scientific evidence for comprehensive prevention and control of bedbugs. MethodsA questionnaire survey was conducted in the pest control operations （PCOs） of Shanghai Association for Health Promotion to investigate the infestation and disposal of bedbugs. The questionnaire included basic information of the unit， bedbug disposal experience， type of environment of bedbug infestation， main disposal site， main treatment method， main drug and formulation， and evaluation of the disposal. Chi-square test was used for comparison between groups. ResultsOf the 116 PCOs， 78 （67.24%） had conducted bedbug disposal， and 29.49% had conducted the disposal no less than 5 times in the past three years. The main types of environment of bedbug infestation were dormitories （46.96%）， hotels （18.78%）， and households （20.44%）. Additionally， bedbug infestation was found in nursing homes， prisons and detention centers， and transport vehicles. Bed frame/bed board/mattress （32.42%） was the main site of bedbug infestation， followed by mat （19.63%）. Chemical spraying was the most common method for bedbug disposal （98.72%）， followed by high-temperature steam （11.54%）. The main drug used in chemical spraying were pyrethroids （69.23%）， nicotinoids （60.26%） and organophosphorus （42.31%）， for which the main formulation were suspended insecticides （55.13%）， followed by wettable powders （43.59%） and emulsifiers （43.59%）. Furthermore， 89.74% of the PCOs performed the assessment after disposal， in which the control effect was generally satisfactory. ConclusionBedbug infestation is relatively common in Shanghai. Dormitories， hotels and households are places where bedbug infestation is more likely to occur. Bed frame， bed board and mattress are the most vulnerable sites to bedbug infestation. Combination of physical and chemical methods should be used for disposal of bedbug infestation.

Mechanism of action and potential therapeutic targets of ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 in liver diseases / 临床肝胆病杂志

Ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 （FSP1） is another major ferroptosis regulator besides glutathione peroxidase 4， which can scavenge intracellular reactive oxygen species and lipid peroxides and inhibit ferroptosis. In view of the key role of the liver in iron and lipid metabolism and its susceptibility to oxidative damage， more and more evidence has shown that FSP1 plays an important role in liver diseases such as metabolic associated fatty liver disease， hepatocellular carcinoma， acute liver failure， and alcoholic liver disease， and the related targets of FSP1 are expected to become a potential treatment option. This article comprehensively reviews FSP1， with a focus on the role of FSP1 in the pathophysiology of several common liver diseases and the potential of FSP1 as a target of liver diseases， in order to provide new ideas for the treatment of liver diseases.

MethodsA multi-stage probability proportional sampling method was employed to sample residents from all communities of 16 administrative districts in Shanghai， with households as the units. A cohort for acute infectious diseases based on natural community populations was established. The baseline survey was conducted for all cohort subjects， and COVID-19 antigen test kits were distributed. From December 21， 2022 to September 30， 2023， prospective follow-up monitoring of COVID-19 antigen and nucleic acid was carried out on the study subjects on a weekly basis. The baseline characteristics and follow-up information of the cohort subjects were described. ResultsThe cohort for acute infectious diseases included a total of 12 881 subjects， comprising 6 098 males （47.3%） and 6 783 females （52.7%）. The baseline survey revealed that 35.2% （4 540/12 881） of the subjects had a history of COVID-19 infection. During the follow-up period from December 21， 2022 to September 30， 2023， the average incidence density in the cohort was 0.61/person-year， with a higher incidence density in females （0.63/person-year） compared to males （0.59/person-year）. Individuals aged 60 and above （0.64/person-year） and those with underlying health conditions （0.67/person-year） had a higher incidence density. Healthcare workers showed a notably higher incidence density （0.84/person-year） than that in other occupational groups. As of September 30， 2023， a total of 340 subjects in the cohort experienced secondary infections， with a median interval of 170 days between the first and second infections. ConclusionThis study applies cohort study method to acute infectious disease surveillance， providing crucial data support for estimating infection rates and forecasting alerts for acute infectious diseases in the community.

Cloning and gene functional analysis study of dynamin-related protein GeDRP1E gene in Gastrodia elata / 药学学报

The gene GeDRP1E encoding dynamin-related protein 1E in Gastrodia elata was cloned by specific primers which were designed based on the transcriptome data of G. elata. Bioinformatics analysis on GeDRP1E gene was carried out by using ExPASy, ClustalW, MEGA, etc. Positive transgenic Arabidopsis plant and potato minituber were obtained with the genetic transformation system of Arabidopsis and potato. The plant height and seed setting rate of transgenic Arabidopsis, and agronomic characters, such as size, weight and starch content of potato minituber of transgenic potato were tested and analyzed. And GeDRP1E gene function was preliminarily investigated. The results showed that the open reading frame of GeDRP1E gene was 1 899 bp in length and 632 amino acids residues were encoded, with a relative molecular weight of 69.90 kDa and a molecular formula of C3079H4973N883O933S19. It was predicted that the theoretical isoelectric point was 7.27, the instability coefficient was 43.34, and the average hydrophilicity index was -0.259, which was indicative of an unstable hydrophilic protein. GeDRP1E has no transmembrane structure and signal peptide, and was localized in the cytoplasm. The phylogenetic tree showed that GeDRP1E was highly homologous with DRP1E proteins of other plant species, among which GeDRP1E had the highest homology with DcDRP1E (XP_020689662.1) in Dendrobium candidum, reaching 90.05%. GeDRP1E plant expression vector pCambia1300-35Spro-GeDRP1E was constructed by double digests, and Arabidopsis complementary mutant and potato overexpression strain of GeDRP1E gene were obtained by Agrobacterium-mediated gene transformation. Compared with the Arabidopsis AtDRP1E mutant, the height and seed setting rate of the GeDRP1E complementation mutant were rescued. The minituber of GeDRP1E overexpression potato had larger size, heavier weight and higher starch content, comparing to wild-type potato. It was preliminarily induced that GeDRP1E was involved in mitochondrial morphology regulation, which related to the growth and development of Arabidopsis plants and potato miniature.

Objective To explore the risk factors for recurrence after unilateral biportal endoscopy in patients with lumbar disc herniation.Methods Clinical data of 156 patients with lumbar disc herniation were retrospectively analyzed.All the patients underwent unilateral biportal endoscopy treatment.Follow up for 2 years after surgery,and the recurrence rate of all patients was recorded.The clinical characteristics of patients in the recurrent and non recurrent groups were compared,the factors influencing postoperative recurrence were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.Results After a 2-year follow-up,a total of 22 patients experienced recurrence,with a recurrence rate of 14.10%(22/156).The results of multivariate Logistic analysis showed that,the age>60 years old,fiber ring break>5 mm,incomplete nucleus pulposus removal,and postoperative intervertebral motion>10 ° were independent risk factors for recurrence after unilateral biportal endoscopy in patients with lumbar disc herniation(P<0.05).Conclusion Age>60 years old,fiber ring break>5 mm,incomplete removal of the nucleus pulposus,and postoperative intervertebral motion>10 ° were independent risk factors for recurrence after unilateral biportal endoscopy in patients with lumbar disc herniation,and prevention should be strengthened.

A fragile X syndrome family with epilepsy / 中国神经精神疾病杂志

Fragile X syndrome(FXS)is caused by abnormal duplication and amplification of the FMR1 gene CGG.This article reports a pair of brothers diagnosed with FXS by genetic testing.Two patients,aged 15 and 14 years old respectively,both had clinical manifestations such as language disorders,intellectual disabilities,attention deficit disorder,autism spectrum disorder,and FXS's characteristic facial features.The proband had a rare late-onset epileptic seizure,which was well treated with levetiracetam,while his younger brother had no electroencephalogram abnormalities after repeated follow-up.This pair of cases suggests that the clinical phenotype of FXS has diversity and heterogeneity.

Regular whole blood donaion in Tianjin from 2013 to 2022 / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To analyze the situation of regular whole blood donation in Tianjin between 2013 and 2022, in order to provide data support for improving the recruitment and retention measures of regular blood donors and ensuring safe clinical blood supply. 【Methods】 From 2013 to 2022, 185 639 regular whole blood donors in Tianjin were selected as the study group and 1 015 312 other whole blood donors in the same period were selected as the control group. The demographic data, blood collection volume and blood retest screening of blood donors in the two groups were statistically analyzed. 【Results】 The number of regular blood donors and the volume of blood donated in Tianjin increased year by year from 2013 to 2022, with an average annual growth rate of 6.22% and 6.18%, respectively. From 2013 to 2021, the retention rate of regular blood donors increased first and then decreased. The proportion of male blood donors in the study and control groups showed a decreasing trend but the proportion of female donors showed an increasing trend, with the proportion of male donors in the study group higher than that in the control group and the proportion of female donors lower than that in the control group (both P<0.05). In the study group, the majority of blood donors were in the age of 26-35 years old, followed by those of 36-45 years old; in the control group, the majority of blood donors were in the age of 18-25 years old, followed by those of 26-35 years old; the proportion of blood donors in the study group in the age of 18-25 years old was lower than that in the control group, while the proportion of blood donors of other age group was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The rates of 200 mL and 300 mL blood donations and insufficient blood donations in the study group were lower than those in the control group, while the rate of 400 mL blood donations was higher than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant. Among the blood donors in the study group, the proportion of students, civil servants, medical workers, military personnel, teachers and others was lower than that of the control group, while the proportion of the rest occupations was higher in the study group than that of the control group, and the differences were all statistically significant. There was a significant difference in the proportion of regular blood donors among blood donors of different professions. The re-test deferral rates of ALT and anti-TP in the study group showed a decreasing trend followed by an increasing trend, and the re-test deferral rates of HBV, HCV and HIV showed an increasing trend followed by a decreasing trend, and all the re-test deferral rates in the study group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05) . 【Conclusion】 From 2013 to 2022, the situation of regular blood donors in Tianjin has a certain regularity, and there is certain room for growth. Precise recruitment strategies targeting different populations should be adopted to have more regular blood donors.

Establishment and Evaluation of Mouse Model of Pregnancy Pain-depression Comorbidity Induced by Chronic Unpredictable Stress, Complete Freund's Adjuvant and Formalin / 实验动物与比较医学

Objective To establish a mouse model of pregnancy pain-depression comorbidity induced by chronic unpredictable stress (CUS), complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), and formalin, and to systematically evaluate the associated phenotypes and preliminarily explore the pathological basis of the comorbidity.Methods Eight-week-old C57BL/6J female mice were randomly strarified divided into a control group (no intervention before pregnancy) and a CUS model group (CUS intervention before pregnancy) based on sucrose preference test (SPT) data. After completing the CUS treatment, female and male mice were paired and mated. Pain was induced by injecting 50% CFA and 5% formalin in the right hind foot during pregnancy to create a model of pregnancy pain-depression comorbidity. The experiment was divided into 8 subgroups: control-blank group, CUS-blank group, control-CFA group, CUS-CFA group, control-formalin group, CUS-formalin group, control-CFA+formalin group, and CUS-CFA+formalin group, with 10 mice in each group. The mice in each group were subject to behavioral tests, including the SPT, forced swimming test, tail suspension test, and open field test before and after CUS intervention, during pregnancy, and after delivery. Pain sensitivity changes were measured using mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia tests. Mice were then euthanized. Levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in hippocampus, as well as cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) in serum, were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).ResultsCompared with the control-blank group, the CUS-blank group showed a significant depression-like behavior with reduced pain threshold (P<0.001). The control-CFA+formalin group showed a decrease in pain threshold after both CFA injection and formalin injection (P<0.01). Compared with the control-blank and control-formalin groups, the pain threshold was significantly lower in the CUS-formalin group (P<0.01), with a sequential decrease among the three. Compared with the control-blank and control-CFA groups, the pain threshold was significantly lower in the CUS-CFA group (P<0.001), with a sequential decrease among the three. Compared with the control-blank and control-CFA+formalin groups, the mechanical pain threshold of mice in the CUS-CFA+formalin group was significantly lower (P<0.001) and the thermal radiation tolerance time was shorter (P<0.01), both with sequential decreases among the three. Compared with the control-CFA+formalin and the CUS-blank groups, the CUS-CFA+formalin group had a significantly lower percentage of sucrose preference (P<0.001), longer immobility time during the forced swimming test (P<0.001) and tail suspension test (P<0.001), reduced central exploration time in the open field test (P<0.001), reduced total exploration distance (P<0.001), and reduced percentage of distance traveled for central exploration (P<0.001). Compared with the control-CFA+formalin and CUS-blank groups, the serum cortisol and ACTH levels of the CUS-CFA+formalin group were significantly higher (P<0.01), and the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the hippocampus were higher (P<0.05).Conclusion The combination of CUS+CFA+formalin injections is an ideal method for establishing a C57BL/6J mouse model of pregnancy pain-depression comorbidity. The behavioral changes in model mice may be attributed to the regulation of inflammatory response in hippocampus and hormone levels in the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis.
