Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2014;(22):3433-3435
Objective To explore the clinical effect between atorvastatin combined with amlodipine and amlodipine monotherapy for the treatment of hypertension .Methods 116 patients with primary hypertension were randomly selected.According to treatment methods, they were divided into the control group and the observation group,60 cases in the control group was given amlodipine therapy.56 patients in the intervention group,with atorvasta-tin treatment on the basis of the control group.Systolic and diastolic blood pressure before and after the treatment, carotid artery intima-media thickness (IMT) were observed,and carotid plaque area,serum total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C) and urinary albumin ( mAlb) were detected.Results After treatment, systolic blood pressure of the observation group and the control group were (138.51 ±12.90) mmHg and (147.62 ± 13.45)mmHg,lower than those before treatment(t=12.67,10.35,all P<0.05),and the patients of the observation group lower than the control group (t=7.82,P<0.05).The diastolic blood pressure of the observation group and the control group after treatment were (90.17 ±4.30)mmHg and (93.63 ±6.26)mmHg, lower than that of the before treatment(t=9.86,11.03,all P<0.05),the observation group was lower than that in the control group (t=5.14, P<0.05).IMT of the observation group and the control group were (0.73 ±0.34)mm and (0.85 ±0.39)mm,lower than those before treatment(t=6.60,6.29,all P<0.05),and that in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (t=5.74,P<0.05).The plaque area of the observation group and the control group patients were (12.02 ±1.45)mm2 and (13.52 ±1.86)mm2,lower than those before treatment(t=8.13,8.59,all P<0.05),and the patients in the observation group was lower than the control group (t=6.22,P<0.05).mAlb,TC and LDL-C of the observation group and the control group after treatment were lower than those before treatment(t=7.65,8.01, 6.08,6.44,5.94,6.02,all P<0.05),and the patients in the observation group was lower than the control group,the difference had statistical significance (t=5.86,5.37,5.63,all P<0.05).The adverse reactions of two groups had no significant difference (χ2 =1.08,P>0.05).Conclusion There is a good clinical effect of atorvastatin combined with amlodipine for the treatment of hypertension and there is no obvious adverse reactions,which is worthy of clinical application.

BACKGROUND:Neural stem cells(NSCs)are characterized by widely resources,convenient harvesting,easy culture and prone to import and express exogenous genes,which can be served as carriers of gene therapy for neural system disease.OBJECTIVE:To review the application of NSCs in spinal cord injury.METHODS:Databases of PubMed(http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed)and Wanfang(http://www.wanfangdata.com.cn)were searched by the correspondence author using key words of "neural stem cells,spinal cord injury,cellular transplantation" both in English and Chinese to retrieve papers concerning isolation,identification,differentiation of NSCs as well as its application in repairing spinal cord injury.A total of 82 documents were initial obtained by computer,after repetitive studies were excluded,23 papers were included in the final analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The NSCs transplantation has been widely used in animal experiments.Currently,the applications of NSCs in repairing spinal cord injury are concentrated on the following aspects:Firstly,cellular replacement therapy,namely,direct transplanting NSCs or activating in vivo NSCs to differentiate into neurons and glial cells,and then integrating transplanted cells with the existed neural cellular structure to cure the disease.Secondly,NSCs were utilized as gene carriers,which carrying target gene to body and reach the aims of cellular replacement and gene therapy.Thirdly,autologous NSCs were induced differentiation for self neural repair via studying growth factors and cytokines.

Objective:
To investigate the development of osteoporosis (OS) and its influencing factors among physical examination populations aged over 35 years in urban areas of Hangzhou City, so as to provide insights into OP prevention.
Methods:
Subjects aged over 35 years that underwent physical examinations in Wenhui Street Community Health Service Center of Gongshu District, Hanghzhou City during the period between April and July, 2022 were enrolled. Subjects' demographic characteristics and physical examination data were collected, and the bone mineral density and serum vitamin D levels were measured. The factors affecting the development of OP were identified using a logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 1 561 subjects were recruited, including 616 males (39.46%) with a median (interquartile range) age of 62 (18) years, and 945 females (60.54%) with a median (interquartile range) age of 62 (19) years. The prevalence of OP was 43.69% among the study subjects. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified women (OR=1.367, 95%CI: 1.105-2.979) and increased age (OR=1.057, 95%CI: 1.044-1.069) as risk factors for OP and elevated serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D levels as a protective factor for OP (OR=0.969, 95%CI: 0.954-0.985).
Conclusions
The prevalence of OP was 43.69% among physical examination populations aged over 35 years in urban areas of Hangzhou City, and gender, age and serum 25-hydroxy-vitamin D were factors affecting the development of OP.

With the intensified aging problem, the study of age-related diseases is becoming more and more significant. Alzheimer's disease is a kind of dementia, with senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles as the main pathological features, and has become one of the major diseases that endanger the health of the elderly. This review is concentrated on the research of the early assessment of Alzheimer's disease. The current situation of early diagnosis of the disease is analyzed, and a prospect of the future development of early assessment means of the disease is also made in the paper.

Objective To explore applied characteristics of the prolene hernia system(PHS) in inguinal hernioplasty, and management during and after operation, and long-term effect of this kind of hemioplasty in aged patients. Methods 69 aged patients using PHS were followed and analyzed retrospectively. Results Tension-free inguinal hernioplasty with the PHS were performed in 69 aged patients of groin hernia. Operative time ranged from 45min to 160min. Post-operatively, 3 patients developed gentle scrotal swelling, and 20 patients had been adminis- tered anodyne for pain of incision, and 12 cases experienced retention of urine, 1 case developed pneumonia, and 2 cases oeeurred incisional infection and gore. 68 cases of them recovered daily life about 2 to 3 weeks after operation. During follow-up period from 6 months to 77 months,there was no recurrence of inguinal hernia and no pain in in-guinal region, but 2 patients feel discomfort sporadically. Conclusion The PHS strengthens the myopectineal orifice and seals up-area of it,so the system is especially preferred in treating aged patients of groin hernias who have some defectsof anatomic structure in inguinal region. The local anaesthesia is also suitable for this kind of hernioplasty in aged patients.

Objective To investigate the applied value of abnormalities of fetus with oligohydramnios in mid-pregnancy by anmioinfusion. Methods Fifty women with oligohydramnios diagnosed by ultrasonograph were analysed retrospectively. During the procedure 60-300 ml saline solution at 37 ℃ were infused into the amniotic cavity,made prenatal diagnosis at the same time necessarily. And examined the women to know whether the fetal anomaly existed or not after the amnioinfusion by the ultrasound. Results There were 15 cases with fetal anomaly, 8 cases with genitotirinary anomaly(2 cases associated with multiple organs anomaly), 1 case with single umbilical artery, 4 cases with chromosomal abnormality (2 cases associated with fetal growth restriction), 2 cases with pulmonary hypolasia. There was no significant difference in dilivery outcome between others and 35 cases with normal pregnant women (P >0.05). Conclusion Transabdominal amnioinfusion has double function on beth diagnosis and therapy for the oligohydramnios in the mid-pregnancy.
