Objective To investigate the effects of fasudil on expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax in cerebral cortex of model rats with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Methods Thirty rats were divided into sham operation group, SAH group and SAH+fasudil group, 10 rats in each group. Double injection of blood into occipital cistern method was used for SAH model in SAH group and SAH+fasudil group. In the sham operation group, the blood injection was instead by normal saline. In the SAH+fasudil group, at 30 min after the second injection of blood, rats were administrated with intraperitoneal injection of fasudil at a dose of 3 mg/kg. The general situation, neurological score, TUNEL staining for cortex cell apoptosis, immune histochemical staining and Western blotting assay for Bcl-2 and Bax protein expression were compared 24 h after the operation between the three groups. Results Compared with the sham operation group, rats in SAH group and SAH +fasudil group appeared obvious neurological deficits. The neurological score was significantly lower in SAH group ( 2.68 ± 0.31) than that of sham operation group (5.00±0.00). The neurological score was significantly higher in SAH+fasudil group (3.27 ± 0.35) compared with that of SAH group (2.68 ± 0.31, P<0.05). There was obvious cell apoptosis in SAH group and SAH+fasudil group, and the apoptosis was less in SAH+fasudil group than that of SAH group (P<0.05). The level of Bcl-2 expression was significantly lower in SAH group than that of sham operation group, and Bax expression was significantly higher in SAH group than that of sham operation group (P<0.05). The level of Bcl-2 expression was significantly higher in SAH+fasudil group than that of SAH group, but Bax expression was significantly lower in SAH+fasudil group than that of SAH group (P<0.05). Conclusion Fasudil can improve the neurological damage in rats with SAH, which may be related with the regulation of apoptosis related proteins Bcl-2 and Bax.

Objective To investigate the hazard of hypertension at initial diagnosis ages.Methods Using stratified cluster sampling,6 091 adults aged more than 18 years with/without hypertension were interviewed;meanwhile their blood pressures were measured.The hazard of hypertension at initial diagnosed age was analyzed with survival analysis.Results The prevalent rate of hypertension was 19.9%and the average initial diagnosed age of hypertension was 52.0?13.12)yrs.The hazard persistently increased with the age after 35 years old for male,and reached its peak of prevalent rate(26%)at the age of 75 years for female.Not significant difference of hazard existed between male and female.Conclusion Our data indicated that there is a close relationship between the risk of hypertension onset and the age,the hazard increasing with ages,especially for the population aged over 35 years old.Therefore,an early prevention of hypertension should be taken from adolescent period.

OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the inherent quality differences of different batches of Compound norethisterone tablet from different domestic enterprises by researching its in vitro dissolution,to provide reference for improving relevant standards in pharmacopoeia and optimizing production processes in drug manufacturers. METHODS:Orthogonal test was adopted to screen its dissolving conditions,small glass method was finally confirmed by detecting rotating speed,sampling time and dissolution medi-um,sampling determination was conducted with the dissolution medium of 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfonate and rotating speed of 50 r/min and 45 min. And HPLC was adopted to simultaneously determine the in vitro dissolution of norethindrone and ethinyl estra-diol,then AV value method was adopted to detect the similarity of dissolution profiles of 8 batches of products from 2 domestic en-terprises. RESULTS:The dissolution profiles and similarity of AV value method showed the cumulative dissolution of 8 batches of Compound norethisterone tablet from 2 domestic enterprises had no significant difference at different time points,overall similarity was relatively high;but the ethinyl estradiol had certain difference,overall similarity was relatively low. CONCLUSIONS:The dif-ference of dissolution profiles of Compound norethisterone tablet may has effect on the drug efficacy,the production process and quality in domestic enterprises should be managed strictly. Meanwhile,the current method of dissolution is weak to distinguish from the quality,which needs to be improved urgently.

Objective:To study the mechanism of moxibustion therapy on diabetic peripheral neuropathy for the peripheral neuroprotection.Methods:The DPN model was induced by intraperitoneal injection with streptozotocin (STZ).The rats were given moxibustion at the acupoint Yishu (Extra) and the acupoint Zusanli (ST 36).The treatment was carried out once a day and 15 minutes per acupoint,lasting for 56 d in total.The clinical effect of moxibustion was evaluated by detecting blood sugar,urine sugar,body weight and dietary intakes,as well as nerve conduction velocity with neuroelectrophysiological method.The structure variation of sciatic nerve was observed by HE staining and light microscopy,and the level of NGF in the sciatic nerve Was determined by ELISA.Results:Compared with the model group,the plasma glucose was significantly lower in the moxibustion group (P＜0.01),with significantly faster nerve conduction velocity (P＜0.01),more notably changes in pathological appearance (P＜0.01) and higher level of nerve growth factor (NGF)(P＜0.01).Conclusion:Moxibustion could improve the symptom and signs of peripheral neuropathy in rat models with DPN,which may relate to the increased NGF and enhanced peripheral nerve protection.
