Objective To study the protective effect of Duzhong Hongjingtian Capsule (DHC) on cerebral ischemia in rats. Methods Thrombotic ischemia and middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) induced by FeCl3 in rats was used to observe the protective effect of DHC on ischemia stroke, and common carotid artery occlusion (CCAO) rats was used to analyze the effect of DHC on blood brain barrier (BBB) permeability. Results DHC could improve the abnormal behavior of MCAO rats and decrease the infarction area and water content in the brain of MCAO rats. DHC could also improve the cerebral blood flow on MCAO rats and significantly reduce the permeability for evans' blue (EB) of CCAO rats. Conclusions DHC can protect the brain ischemic injury.

ObjectiveTo compare the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients with or without coronary artery disease (CAD) and also to determine the factors affecting their quality of life.MethodsOne hundred patients with CAD and 100 patients without CAD were included in this cross-sectional study. The patients with CAD and the patients without CAD were matched by age, sex, marital status, and income. HRQOL was measured with the generic HRQOL instrument.ResultsHRQOL scores of the patients with CAD differed significantly from the patients without CAD. Compared to the patients without CAD, the HRQOL of the patients with CAD was lower in the dimensions of mobility, hearing, breathing, elimination, usual activities, mental function, discomfort and symptoms, vitality, and sexual activity. The patients with CAD had lower HRQOLscores than the patients without CAD. In the patients with CAD, age and sex independently affected the HRQOL. Older patients and women had worse HRQOL.ConclusionCoronary artery disease negatively affects HRQOL. It is thought that interventions to increase quality of life the patients with CAD may improve their HRQOL.

Objective To explore influence of out-hospital health education on life quality of senile patient with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after underwent stenting therapy of coronary artery.Methods A total of 100 cases of AMI patients undergoing stenting therapy of coronary artery were selected and randomly divided into the follow-up group and control group with 50 cases in each group. Patients of the follow-up group accepted out-hospital health education. While patients of the control group were only carried out conventional in-hospital health education. The quality of life of two groups was compared.Results At the end of study, the follow-up group had a better life quality than the control group ( P<0.01). The satisfactory degrees of nurse-patient relationship in the follow-up group were better than that of control group ( P<0.05).Conclusion Out-hospital health education can improve life quality of senile patient with AMI after underwent stenting therapy of coronary artery.

Objective To investigate the relative histological change of transplanted domestic expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (e-PTFE), which were treated with different methods, in order to offer the referential data for clinical application. Methods e-PTFE treated with different methods was transplanted into subcutaneous tussue of rat. The samples harvested according to time sequence were examined by using histological and histochemical methods. Dynamic change of the structure between the e-PTFE and it's surrounded tissue was investigated based on the examination. Results Cell and tissue were observed on the inside of all the e-PTFE including the control group and the experiment groups. Heavy cell infiltration on the 3rd day was the most significant in control group, and the quantity of tissue ingrowth was also the most until the 28th day. The next was trimming group. The quantity of both cell infiltration and the tissue ingrowth in high pressure steamed group and forceps squeezed group were less than that in other groups. Conclusion Cell infiltration into domestic e-PTFE is significantly achieved since 72 hrs and fibrovascular ingrowth since the 7days after implanted e-PTFE under subcutaneous tissue of the rat. Different treatment methods of e-PTFE can affect the speed of tissue ingrowth into the e-PTFE, which could be a reference for clinic application of e-PTFE.

Objective Clinically, the anterior cruciate ligament ( ACL) can be reconstructed by either ligament advanced reinforcement system ( LARS) artificial ligament or hamstring tendon autograft ( HTAG) . This study aims to compare the early clinical outcomes of LARS versus HTAG in the treatment of ACL. Methods This study included 38 cases of ACL injury treated in our de-partment from March 2012 to August 2014, 18 by LARS artificial ligament and the other 20 by HTAG. Before and at 18 months after surgery, we evaluated the clinical outcomes of the tow strategies using the Lysholm knee scoring scale and International Knee Documen-tation Committee ( IKDC) scoring systems, and conducted statistical analysis on the follow-up findings. Results Statistically signifi-cant differences were not observed preoperatively between the LARS and HTAG groups either in the Lyshrolm scores (46.78±1.52 vs 46.80 ±1.89, P>0.05) or in the IKDC scores (42.83±1.47 vs 42.20±1.61, P>0.05), nor at 18 months postoperatively in the Lyshrolm scores (93.52±3.19 vs 94.10±1.37, P>0.05) or the IKDC scores (92.11± 1.45 vs 93.15±1.76, P>0.05). However, both the LARS and HTAG groups showed significant differences in the Lyshrolm and IKDC scores at the baseline as compared with those at 18 months after oper-ation ( P<0.05) . Conclusion Both LARS artificial ligament ham-string tendon autograft can achieve good early clinical outcomes in ACL reconstruction.
