RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of electromagnetic wave power density on the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)in the hippocampus of SD rats under 1800 MHz electromagnetic wave irradiation,and whether it exhibits a"window effect".Methods Ninety-eight 4-week-old SPF-grade SD rats were randomly divided into 14 groups,with 7 rats in each group.Seven groups were exposed groups(frequency:1800 MHz,power densities:0.1 mW/cm2,0.3 mW/cm2,0.5 mW/cm2,0.7 mW/cm2,0.9 mW/cm2,1.0 mW/cm2,1.2 mW/cm2)and corresponding 7 groups were control groups(power density:0 mW/cm2).Exposure was conducted for 12 hours daily for 3 weeks.After exposure,Western Blot was used to detect the expression level of GFAP in the hippocampal tissue,and immunohistochemistry staining was performed to determine the average optical density(MOD)value of GFAP-positive expression products in the DG,CA3,and CA1 regions of the hippocampal tissue,to determine the power density window of GFAP expression in the hippocampus of SD rats under 1800 MHz exposure.Results At power densities of 0.1 mW/cm2 and 0.3 mW/cm2,Western Blot results showed increased expression of GFAP in the rat hippocampus(P<0.05),and immunohistochemistry staining demonstrated increased MOD values of GFAP in the three regions(P<0.05).Conclusion Long-term exposure to 1800 MHz elect-romagnetic radiation has a"window effect"on the expression of GFAP in the DG,CA3,and CA1 regions of the hippocampus in SD rats,with power density windows of 0.1 mW/cm2 and 0.3 mW/cm2.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the quality of life(QOL) of peasant workers with pneumoconiosis and its main influencing factors. METHODS: A typical sampling method was used to select 83 peasant workers with pneumoconiosis in two villages in Zhaotong City, Yunnan Province as the pneumoconiosis group, and 85 non-pneumoconiosis peasant workers in the same village selected as the control group. The QOL of the two groups was investigated using the Quality of Life Measurement Scale. RESULTS: The average annual family income of pneumoconiosis group was much lower and average annual expenditure of the family for disease treatment increased in 2015(P<0.01) compared with the control group. The total score of QOL and its average scores in the physical, psychological, environmental and social fields of pneumoconiosis group were lower than that of the control group(P<0.01). The multiple stepwise regression analysis results showed significant factors related to all functional domain scores of QOL in the pneumoconiosis group. For the total score of QOL, complication and ability to do housework were the significant factors. In the physical domain of QOL, only doing housework was the significant factor. In the psychological domain of QOL, complications and average annual family income were the significant factors. Marital status, doing housework and educational level were the significant factors for the social domain of QOL. The significant factors for the environmental domain of QOL were average annual family income and doing housework. CONCLUSION: The QOL of migrant workers with pneumoconiosis was poor. Complications, divorcement or widowhood reduced the quality of their lives. Higher education degree, higher average annual family income and higher ability to do housework played a positive role in promoting the QOL of peasant workers with pneumoconiosis.
RESUMO
Hippocampus,as an important organization of the nervous system,has a close relationship with the biology function of learning,memory and spatial cognition.It is very important to clarify the specific influence of non-ionizing radiation on the hippocampus.This paper summarized briefly the effects of nonionzing radiation on hippocampus and relevant research method.
