Antagonist Targeting microRNA-155 Protects against Lithium-Pilocarpine-Induced Status Epilepticus in C57BL/6 Mice by Activating Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor.

Epilepsy is a severe brain disorder affecting numerous patients. Recently, it is inferred that modulation of microRNA-155 (miR-155) could serve as a promising treatment of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy. In the current study, the therapeutic potential of miR-155 antagonist against temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) was evaluated and the underlying mechanism involved in this regulation was explored.

[Combined therapy for the chronic pelvic pain syndrome].

Objective: To study the clinical diagnosis and treatment of the chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CPPS).

Methods: According to National Institute Health (NIH) classification, 165 cases of chronic prostatitis were surveyed by analysis of their laboratory results and clinical history. In addition, the chronic prostatitis symptom index (CPSI) of each patient was evaluated.
