The present study attempted to understand the differential effect of monosodium glutamate on key enzymes of glutamate metabolisms in rat brain exposed either as neonate or adult to monosodium glutamate. Methods: The rat neonates were divided into six groups with seven animals per group and exposed to different concentrations of monosodium glutamate as neonates only (normal saline or monosodium glutamate 4 mg/g), neonate plus adults (monosodium glutamate 5 or 10 mg/g) and adult only (monosodium glutamate 5 or 10 mg/g). Key enzymes of glutamate metabolisms were measured in whole brain homogenates. All experiments were approved by the Faculty of Basic Medical Sciences University of Calabar and ethics committee-04/11/2018. Results: Except neonate plus adult 5 mg/g group, glutamate dehydrogenase and glutamate synthetase activities were significantly higher in administered groups than in the control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in glutamate synthetase activity among monosodium glutamate administered groups (P > 0.05). The glutamate carboxylase activity was significantly higher in all monosodium glutamate administered groups than in the control group (P < 0.05). The brain alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase activities of rats in each monosodium glutamate administered group increased in a dose-dependent manner (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Exposure to monosodium glutamate can increase the activities of key enzymes of glutamate metabolism in the brain of neonate and adult rats similarly, which is not determined by age difference.","PeriodicalId":8515,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Trials: Nervous System Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86927909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Penn State Worry Questionnaire is one of the most widely used measures for assessing pathological worry. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the abbreviated version of the Penn State Worry Questionnaire-Abbreviated (PSWQ-A) and to compare it with the original version of the Penn State Worry Questionnaire (PSWQ) in a nonclinical sample. Participants and methods: The present study is a cross-sectional psychometric study. The statistical population of this study consisted of all students studying at Zanjan University of Medical Sciences (n = 3500) from January to October 2018. A sample of 350 people was selected for the study. Research measures were the PSWQ-A, PSWQ, and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-item (GAD-7) Scale. The present study was carried out after approval of Social Determinants of Health Research Center of Zanjan University of Medical Science with the project code of A-12-924-5 on October 7, 2017. The project was also approved by the Ethics Committee of Zanjan University of Medical Sciences on October 17, 2017 and the approval ID was IR.ZUMS.REC.1396.187. Results: Exploratory factor analysis, scree plot, and parallel analysis supported the single factor structure PSWQ-A. The total variance explained by the single-factor model of PSWQ-A was higher (53.1% versus 49.1%). Generally, fit indices for the PSWQ-A was better fitted than the PSWQ. Both measures had acceptable convergent validity (r=0.52 for both questionnaires) and satisfactory internal consistency (α=0.87 for both questionnaires). Conclusion: PSWQ-A has better psychometric properties compared to PSWQ, and it can be used for faster and more accurate assessment of worry in psychological studies and therapeutic settings.","PeriodicalId":8515,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Trials: Nervous System Diseases","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89045515","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this study is to examine the relationship of body mass index, abdominal obesity, and metabolic parameters with depression among reproductive-age women. Subjects and methods: Two hundred and seventy-one women who admitted to the Endocrine and Diet Polyclinic of İzmir Bozyaka Training and Research Hospital, Turkey were included. Sociodemographic characteristics were gathered using a data collection form. Biochemical findings were examined in fasting blood samples and anthropometric measurements were taken. Depressive symptoms of participants were measured with Beck Depression Inventory. This study was performed with the permission from Chief Physician of Izmir Bozyaka Training and Research Hospital (No. 4.35.94.02-003) and approval from the Senate Ethics Committee of Hacettepe University Faculty of Medicine (Decision No. 431-1305). Results: Mean score of participants for Beck Depression Inventory was 17.8 ± 11.8. Body weight, body mass index and waist circumference were higher in the group with high level of depressive symptoms than in the group with low level of depressive symptoms (P < 0.05). Fasting blood glucose, fasting insulin, Homeostasis Model Assessment-Insulin Resistance value, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were also higher in the group with high level of depressive symptoms than in the group with low level of depressive symptoms; but only HOMA-IR and triglyceride differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). Being overweight or obese was associated with increased risk of high level of depressive symptoms (OR = 4.853, 95% CI: 2.646–8.903). Although the ratio of having high level of depressive symptoms was higher in women with abdominal obesity (50.3%) compared to women without abdominal obesity (39.5%), the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.078).

However, it can also lead to abnormal blood pressure and heart rate, as well as restlessness and pain. Therefore, an auxiliary anesthetic is needed to help reduce adverse reactions. Dexmedetomidine is a potent and highly selective α2 adrenergic receptor agonist that has anti-anxiety, hypnotic, analgesic, sedative, and sympatholytic properties. Dexmedetomidine has been shown to reduce restlessness after sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia and minimize perioperative hemodynamic fluctuation. However, its application in craniocerebral surgery should be validated. The purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine in craniocerebral surgery under sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia. Subjects and methods: The prospective, single-center, randomized, controlled study will be performed in Taihe Hospital (Shiyan, China). The 1308 patients to be included in this study will be randomly divided into a trial group and control group (n = 654 patients per group) based on a table of random permutations. In both groups, sevoflurane will be used for induction of anesthesia for craniocerebral surgery. In the trial group, 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine will be injected intravenously for 10 minutes commencing 15 minutes before anesthesia induction, and then continuously pumped at 0.3 μg/kg per hour until 30 minutes before surgery. In the control group, 0.9% sodium chloride injection will be administered in the same way and at the same injection rate. This trial was approved by the Ethics Review Committee of Taihe Hospital on December 8, 2015 (approval No. 2015GJJ-087). Protocol version: 1.0. Participants will not be blind to the study protocol or procedure, and will provide signed informed consent. Results: The primary outcome of this study is recovery time. Secondary outcomes of this study include anesthesia, recovery, and adverse events, as well as vital signs, stress index, and cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen consumption at different time points (before and after administration of the loading dose of dexmedetomidine, during anesthesia induction, at the beginning of craniocerebral surgery, during craniocerebral surgery, at the end of craniocerebral surgery, and at the time of recovery). A pilot study involving 190 patients who underwent craniocerebral surgery was performed between March 2016 and February 2017.
