Objective To investigate the effects of stellate ganglion block (SGB) on erythrocyte immunity in patients with acute cerebral infarction.Methods Twenty-four patients (13 male, 11 female) who developed acute cerebral infarction for less than 3 days were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=12each): Group A receiving traditional treatment and Group B receiving traditional treatment + SGB.The patients ranged in age from 51 to 64 yr and weighed 52-71 kg. All patients received intravenous 5% glucose 25 ml plus citicoline sodium 1.0 g and sodium ozagrel injectio 250 ml daily for 10 days in addition to dehydration and effective control of complications and intracranial pressure. Group B received SGB on one side alternatively with 1% licocaine 10 mi once a day for 10 days. Fasting venous blood samples were taken in the early mornings of the day before treatment (baseline, T1 ) and the 1st, 5th and 10th day of treatment (T2-4) for determination of the plasma MDA concentration and SOD activity, erythrocyte C3b receptor rosette rate (RBC-C3bRR) and RBC immune complex rosette rate (RBC-ICR) and Ne+-K+-ATPase activity in erythrocyte membrane.Results The plasma MDA concentration and RBC-ICR were significantly decreased during treatment es compared with the baselines at T1 in both groups (P<0.05 or 0.01), but were significantly lower in Group B than in Group A (P<0.05 or 0.01 ).The activities of plasma SOD and Na+ -K+ -ATPase in erythrocyte membrane and RBC-C3bRR were significantly increased during treatment as compared with the baselines at T1 and were significantly higher in Group B than in Group A.Conclusion SGB combined with traditional treatment can increase the activities of plasma SOD and Na+ -K+ -ATPase in erythrocyte membrane, inhibit production of oxygen free radicals and enhance RBC immune function in patients with acute cerebral infarction.

AIM: To investigate the effects of a Chinese herb compound prescription, Wen-Jin-Tong(WJT), on the deposition of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) ,the expression of receptor for AGEs(RAGE)and ICAM-1 in cardiovascular tissues of diabetic rats. METHODS: The diabetic rat model was induced by injection of streptozotocin. The quantity of AGEs accumulation, the expressions of RAGE and ICAM-1 in aorta and cardiac tissues were detected using fluorescence method, RT-PCR and in situ hybridization techniques. RESULTS: AGEs accumulation in aorta and cardiac tissues of rats treated with Wen-Jin-Tong was lower than that of diabetic model rats(P

Objective To observe the clinical effect of Yi'naokang Capsules combined with Donepezil Hydrochloride Tablets in treating post-stroke cognitive impairment(PSCI).Methods 110 patients who met the diagnostic criteria of PSCI in the outpatient department were included.According to the random number table method,the patients were divided into trial group and control group,with 55 cases in each group.Patients in control group were treated with routine western medicine,including the treatment of Donepezil Hydrochloride Tablets and secondary prevention of stroke such as lowering blood pressure,lowering blood lipid,lowering blood glucose and anti-platelet aggregation.The trial group was treated with Yi'naokang Capsules on the basis of the treatment in control group,and both groups were treated for 6 months.Before and after 6 months of treatment,the cognitive function of patients was evaluated by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)scale.The activity of daily living(ADL)scale was used to evaluate the ability of daily living,and the severity of cerebral white matter lesions was evaluated by Fazekas scale,and the adverse reactions were also observed.Results After 6 months of treatment,the total score of the MoCA,the scores of visual space and executive function,attention,delayed recall and the ADL of the two groups were all improved(P<0.05),and the improvement degree of the trial group was better than that of the control group(P<0.05).The Fazekas score of the trial group after treatment was no significant difference when compared with that before treatment(P>0.05),but it increased in the control group after treatment(P<0.05),and the effect of delaying white matter lesion in the trial group was better than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Yi'naokang Capsules combined with Donepezil Hydrochloride Tablets are superior to Donepezil alone in the treatment of PSCI,which can safely and effectively improve the cognitive function and daily living ability of patients,as well as prolong the progress of white matter lesions.
