These findings demonstrated that SD for 3 days induced anxiety- and depression-like behaviors in rats in company with altering the circadian oscillations of clock genes and inducing neuroinflammation, indicating the underlying mechanism of sleep loss induced neuronal dysfunction.

Neuroimaging studies suggest that the inferior frontal operculum (IFO) is part of a neuronal network involved in facial expression processing, but the causal role of this region in emotional face discrimination remains elusive.

We used cathodal (inhibitory) tDCS to test whether right (r-IFO) and left (l-IFO) IFO play a role in discriminating basic facial emotions in healthy volunteers. Specifically, we tested if the two sites are selectively involved in the processing of facial expressions conveying high or low arousal emotions. Based on the Arousal Hypothesis we expected to find a modulation of high and low arousal emotions by cathodal tDCS of the r-IFO and the l-IFO, respectively.

First, we validated an Emotional Faces Discrimination Task (EFDT). Then, we targeted the r-IFO and the l-IFO with cathodal tDCS (i.e. the cathode was placed over the right or left IFO, while the anode was placed over the contralateral supraorbital area) during facial emotions discrimination on the EFDT. Non-active (i.e. shamiscrimination of high arousal emotions but disrupting discrimination of low arousal emotions. These findings offer new insights for treating clinical population with deficits in processing facial expressions.

Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) often does not respond to available treatments. Memories are vulnerable to disruption during reconsolidation, and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) has amnestic effects OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS To test the use of ECT to disrupt the reconsolidation of traumatic memories as a potential treatment for PTSD METHODS Participants were adults from the civilian population and were referred for ECT treatment for severe depression with comorbid PTSD symptoms. Twenty-eight participants were randomly assigned to reactivation of a traumatic or non-traumatic memory using audio script driven imagery prior to each ECT treatment. Primary outcomes were change in scores on the Modified PTSD Symptom Scale - Self Report (MPSS-SR) and the Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (CAPS-5). Secondary outcomes included a comparison of the change in heart rate while listening to the script RESULTS Twenty-five female patients who completed a post-ECT assessment were included in the analysis. No significant group differences were found in the MPSS-SR or CAPS-5 scores from pre-ECT to post-ECT or 3-month follow-ups. However, both groups improved at post-ECT and 3-month follow up. Partial eta squared estimates of effect size showed large effect sizes for all outcomes (η

>0.13). Changes in heart rate were not significantly different between groups or over time CONCLUSIONS ECT paired with pre-treatment traumatic memory reactivation was not more effective for treating PTSD symptoms than ECT with non-traumatic memory reactivation. While our primary hypothesis was not supported, our data provides further support for the efficacy of ECT for improving symptoms of PTSD with comorbid depression.

To compare the prevalence of psychopathology, particularly bipolar disorder (BD), between preschool offspring of parents with BD and community controls.

A total of 116 offspring of BD-I/II parents and 98 controls (53 parents with non-BD psychopathology and 45 healthy parents) were recruited at ages 2 to 5 years and followed on average 9.6 years (on average 2-5 1.6 times; after age 5 4 times) (average ages at intake/last follow-up 3.8/13.4, retention 98%). Participants were evaluated with standardized instruments blinded to parental diagnoses.

After adjusting for confounders, offspring of BD parents only showed more attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) during ages 2 to 5 years than the other 2 groups. After age 5, offspring of BD parents did not differ from offspring of parents with non-BD psychopathology, but they had more anxiety, ADHD, and behavior problems than offspring of healthy parents. Only offspring of BD parents developed BD-I/II 3.4% (n = 4) and BD-not-otherwise-specified (BD-NOS) ognosis and high risk to develop BD-I/II. Developing early interventions to delay or, ideally, to prevent its onset are warranted.

Wraparound is a common method for coordinating care for children and adolescents with serious emotional disorders (SED), with nearly 100,000 youths served annually in the United States. The current systematic review and meta-analysis estimated effects on youth outcomes (symptoms, functioning, school, juvenile justice, and residential placement) and costs.

A literature search identified 17 peer-reviewed and gray literature studies meeting criteria, which were coded on characteristics of sample, design, implementation, and outcomes. Random effects modeling was conducted using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Version 3.0. Effect sizes were calculated using Hedges g. Homogeneity of effects were assessed using Q statistics.

Medium-sized effects favored Wraparound-enrolled youths for costs (g = 0.391, CI = 0.282-0.500, p < .001), residential outcomes (g = 0.413, CI = 0.176-0.650, p = .001), and school functioning (g = 0.397, CI = 0.106-0.688, p = .007); small effects were found for mental health symptoms (g = 0d decisions around resource allocation, referral practices, and system partnerships among child psychiatrists and other behavioral health professionals.

To analyze the chemical composition of the surgical smoke and the outflow irrigation fluid produced during a common endourological surgical procedure to treat benign prostatic obstruction (BPO).

A prospective study was performed to analyze the surgical smoke generated during photoselective vaporization of the prostate (PVP) using the 180-W GL-XPS GreenLight Laser system. Surgical smoke samples were collected from 5 patients, and irrigation fluid samples were collected from 5 different patients. Qualitative organic compound determination was performed on both types of collected specimens using headspace-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HS-GC/MS) analysis.

Four organic compounds were identified in the analyses of the smoke samples tetradecane, hexadecane, 7-methylpentadecane and 2,6-dimethyleptadecane. In the analysis of fluid samples, 16 organic elements were identified. Interestingly, two compounds present in the first group (7-methylpentadecane and 2,6-dimethyleptadecane) were not detected in the fluid samples from the second group. None of the sixteen compounds detected in the fluids were present in all of the samples. Overall, seven of these compounds can be classified as toxic for acute exposure, while 4 others may represent a health hazard.

We found that the different types of surgical smoke and irrigation fluids produced during PVP with a GreenLight Laser contain a limited number of organic compounds with a potential inhalation hazard. More studies are needed to understand the potential hazard for the exposed employees.

To evaluate the risk factors that pertain to stricture recurrence and oral complications.

Patients with long segmented anterior urethral stricture who visited our hospital from 2009 to 2016 were treated with lingual mucosa graft (LMG) urethroplasty. The incidence of complications in all of 128 patients were evaluated. The data were analyzed using the chi-squared test and Fisher's exact test. A multi-factorial regression analysis was performed to identify the risk factors responsible for the recurrence and complications.

For patients having LMG urethroplasty, there were no significant difference in recurrence of urethral stricture according to the studied variables. Binary logistic regression analysis reveals that previous surgery involving the urethra was a significant predictor of urethral stricture recurrence (odds ratio [OR]=5.07; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.06-24.40; P=.043). The length of the substitute was significantly related to oral morbidity (P=.020), even after controlling for the studied variables. Patients with a harvested oral mucosa longer than 7 cm had a higher risk of oral morbidity than those with a harvested oral mucosa shorter than 7 cm (OR=4.35; 95% CI, 1.35-14.06; P=.014).

Our study shows that LMG urethroplasty is effective for patients with long segmented anterior urethral stricture. selleck Previous urethral surgery was identified as a risk factor to cause recurrence and injury to the tip of the tongue for the oral complications.

To evaluate the health-related quality of life (QOL) of testicular cancer (TC) survivors using the Japanese version of the EORTC QLQ-TC26 questionnaire in a multi-institutional, cross-sectional study.

This study recruited TC survivors who were followed after treatment for TC at eight high-volume institutions between January, 2018 and March, 2019. The participants completed the EORTC QLQ-TC26 questionnaire and mailed the completed questionnaires to a central institution. The QOL scores were assessed according to therapeutic modality (watchful waiting, WW; chemotherapy, CT; and CT followed by retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, CT+RPLND) and follow-up period and compared using analysis of variance and Student's t-test.

A total of 567 TC survivors responded to the questionnaire. The median age at response was 43 years (IQR 35-51 years), and the median follow-up was 5.2 years (IQR 2.2-10.0 years). As for treatment side effects and physical limitations, the scores of the CT+RPLND group were significantly higher than those of the WW group, especially within one year after treatment. In addition, TC survivors in the CT+RPLND group reported high impairment related to job and education problems and future perspective less than 5 years after treatment. Even TC survivors in the WW group were anxious about job and education issues within one year after treatment.

TC survivors were anxious about not only cancer recurrence, but also their jobs and education. TC patients should be given appropriate information on QOL after treatment for TC to attenuate post-treatment anxiety and improve their health-related QOL.

Integrated analysis of the virus and host transcriptomes from different populations provides an unprecedented opportunity to understand these racial disparities in the prevalence of HPV and cervical cancers. We performed RNA-Seq analysis of 90 tumors and 39 adjacent normal tissues from cervical cancer patients at Zhejiang University (ZJU) in China, and conducted a comparative analysis with RNA-Seq data of 286 cervical cancers from TCGA. We found a modestly higher rate of HPV positives and HPV integrations in TCGA than in ZJU. In addition to LINC00393 and HSPB3 as new common integration hotspots in both cohorts, we found new hotspots such as SH2D3C and CASC8 in TCGA, and SCGB1A1 and ABCA1 in ZJU. We described the first, to our knowledge, virus-transcriptome-based classification of cervical cancer associated with clinical outcome. Particularly, patients with expressed E5 performed better than those without E5 expression. However, the constituents of these virus-transcriptome-based tumor subtypes differ dramatically between the two cohorts.
