Objective To investigate the effect of proanthcyaindin on angiogenesis of rats with ischemic hindlimb.Methods Twelve male SD rats were randomized divided into control group (n =6) and proanthcyaindin group (PC group,n =6).Lower limb ischemia rat model was establish,rats in both group were administration by oral daily,and PC group was given proanthocyanidins 200 mg/(kg · d),while the control group received the same volume of saline.Forteen days after surgery,ischemic tissues of adductor were collected for several tests including the expression of CD31 in the ischemic muscle tissue and the number of new blood vessels by immunohistochemical staining,hypoxia inducible factor-1 protein expression by western blot,and vascular endothelial growth factor level test by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results The capillary count showed that the angiogenesis situation of PC group was (69.67 ±3.11)/HP,higher than that in control group((111.00 ± 3.11)/HP,t =13.350,P < 0.0001).The HIF-1 protein expression in PC group was (1.90 ± 0.25),remarkable higher than that in control group (0.54 ± 0.21,t =4.183,P =0.0058).Compared with control group,VEGF level in PC group increased((432.86 ± 13.00) μg/L vs.(326.68 ± 11.08) μg/L,t =6.216,P <0.0001).Conclusion Proanthcyaindin plays a positive role in angiogenesis after ischemia.PC may induce up-regulation of HIF-1 and VEGF,and then promote the formation of endovascular through multiple signaling pathways consequently.

Objective To analyze the correlation of traditional Chinese medical constitution types withcardiovascular risk factors in community hypertension patients. Methods We defined the constitution types of 1108 community hypertension patients, created personal health archives and provided routine examination for the subjects. After that, we input and analyzed the relevant data and results by computer. Results In 1108 cases of hypertension patients, 229 (20.67%) were defined as harmony physique, 879 (79.33%) as biased physique. In patients with biased physique, phlegm-dampness physique accounted for 25.54% (283 cases) , and then came yin deficiency physique and Qi deficiency physique, which accounted for 15.16% (168 cases) and 13.18% (146 cases) , respectively. The biased physique was dominated by single biased physique with a total of 590 cases ( 67.12%) , but the complex physique was also in large quantity, with a total of 289 cases ( 32.88%) . The complex physique consisting of two kinds of single physique was commonly seen in the patients with complex physique, accounting for 15.70%. The complex physique consisting of more kinds of single physique had less percentage. Phlegm-dampness physique was a kind of physique involving the most cardiovascular risk factors. Patients with phlegm-dampness physique had higher incidence of overweight, abnormal lipid level, family history of cardiovascular disease, lack of physical exercise and electrocardiographic abnormality, and the difference was statistically significant compared with other physique types ( P<0.05 or P<0.01) . Conclusion Phlegm-dampness, yin deficiency and Qi deficiency physique are the three commonly-seen constitution types in hypertension patients. Phlegm-dampness physique is the most commonly-seen biased physique and is also a kind of physique involving the most cardiovascular risk factors. Prevention and management in consideration with the constitution characteristics and cardiovascular risk factors will be a new prospective method for the treatment of hypertension patients in community.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the difference in conjugated bile acids in the gallbladder bile between gallbladder cholesterol polyps and adenomatous polyps patients, and screen the differential diagnosis-markers for polypoid lesions of gallbladder (PLG).
METHODSFrom January to June 2013, the 20 cholesterol polyps patients, 10 adenomatous polyps patients and 10 patients without gallbladder diseases were enrolled. High performance liquid chromatography assay with ultraviolet detection was used to test 8 conjugated bile acids in gallbladder bile.
RESULTSThe 8 conjugated bile acids were completely analyzed in 10 minutes, and the assay was liner in the range 8-500 µg/ml. The correlation coeffients for linear regression was from 0.9996-0.9999 and the detection limits ranged from 3.90-7.81 µg/ml. The level of taurocholic acid (TCA) in adenomatous polyps group ((75 ± 51) µg/ml) was significantly lower than that in the cholesterol polyps ((228 ± 206) µg/ml, q = 3.120, P = 0.014) and control groups ((104 ± 40) µg/ml, q = 2.950, P = 0.027). The level of taurochenodeoxycholic acid (TCDCA) in cholesterol polyps group ((604 ± 444) µg/ml) was significantly higher than that in the adenomatous polyps ((310 ± 182) µg/ml, q = 2.560, P = 0.048) and control groups ((308 ± 21) µg/ml, q = 2.970, P = 0.023).
CONCLUSIONSThe levels of TCA and TCDCA in the gallbladder biles in cholesterol polyps patients were higher than those in adenomatous polyps patients, which may be the differential diagnosis-markers for PLG.

Objective:To construct the nutritional intervention regimen for elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and rehabilitation period.Methods:Based on Stetler evidence-based practice model, 151 elderly patients with hip fractures surgery who were admitted to Jiading District Central Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Medicine and Health Sciences from January to May 2019 were investigated, and nutritional problems were found in the perioperative period and 3 months after surgery. Through systematic literature search, the best evidence was extracted to construct a nutritional intervention regimen for elderly hip fractures patients with oral nutrition supplements (ONS) . The expert meeting method was adopted to demonstrate the scheme and determine the final intervention scheme and process.Results:A total of 7 guidelines were included, and 25 recommendations were formed based on evidence, including 24 strong recommendations and 1 weak recommendation. Nutritional intervention scheme and process for elderly patients with hip fractures, mainly ONS, were determined. The expert authority coefficient was 0.89.Conclusions:In this study, the nutritional intervention regimen for elderly patients with hip fractures, mainly ONS, was constructed with a high degree of expert authority and reliable results, providing a theoretical basis for clinical nutrition intervention for elderly patients with hip fractures in the perioperative period.
