Article Synopsis
  • Mitochondria are crucial in understanding both inflammatory and neuropathic pain, but the exact mechanisms are still being studied.
  • Experiments in a spared nerve injury (SNI) model showed that increased levels of Dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) are linked to pain and anxiety-like behaviors, indicating the importance of Drp1 in spinal neuron function.
  • Overexpressing Drp1 reduced pain symptoms and improved mitochondrial health in SNI mice, while reducing Drp1 worsened mitochondrial damage and pain, highlighting the potential of targeting Drp1 for pain management.

Objective: To explore the influencing factors in children with chronicity immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), and to provide basis for judging the prognosis and treatment in children with ITP.

Methods: The clinical data of children with ITP admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University in the past 5 years were retrospectively analyzed and followed up for more than 1 year. According to the inclusion criteria, the eligible cases (328 cases in total) were selected and collected through medical record system retrieval, outpatient clinic and telephone follow-up.

Introduction: The objective of this review is to systematically summarize the consensus on best practices for different NP conditions of the two most commonly utilized noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) technologies, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS).

Methods: PubMed was searched according to the predetermined keywords and criteria. Only English language studies and studies published up to January 31, 2020 were taken into consideration.

Simulated hypobaric hypoxia (SHH) training has been used to enhance running performance. However, no studies have evaluated the effects of a single SHH exposure on healthy mice performance and analyzed the changes of mitochondria-related genes in the central nervous system. The current study used a mouse decompression chamber to simulate mild hypobaric hypoxia at the high altitude of 5000 m or severe hypobaric hypoxia at 8000 m for 16 h (SHH5000 & SHH8000, respectively).

Objectives: Drp1 is widely expressed in the mouse central nervous system and plays a role in inducing the mitochondrial fission process. Many diseases are associated with Drp1 and mitochondria. However, since the exact distribution of Drp1 has not been specifically observed, it is difficult to determine the impact of anti-Drp1 molecules on the human body.

Objective: To explore clinical characteristics and outcome of deep vein thrombosis(DVT) in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).

Methods: A tatol of 266 patients were diagnosed as ALL from January 1, 2010 to May 31, 2016. The clinical data of 12 cases of patients with DVT were retrospectively analyzed, 183 cases diagnosed before January 1, 2015 were received chemotherapy with the scheme of SCMC-05.
