Objective:To provide reference for the pharmaceutical care for aged acute cerebral infarction with various complica-tions. Methods:Clinical pharmacists participated in the treatment for an elder patient with acute cerebral infarction complicated with gastrointestinal bleeding, liver dysfunction and pulmonary infection through providing drug therapy information, analyzing the effect and safety of drug therapy and adjusting the pharmaceutical care plan according to the drug efficacy in time. Results:Taking use of phar-maceutical knowledge, clinical pharmacists provided whole-course pharmaceutical care for the treatment of the patient and coordinated with doctors to make the drug therapy, which guaranteed the effectiveness and safety of therapy. Conclusion:The old are with high in-cidence of cerebral infarction, and complications are common. Due to their physiological dysfunction and the other reasons, high safety risk exists in their drug therapy. Clinical pharmacists can use their professional knowledge to provide whole-course pharmaceutical care for the patients in order to improve the therapeutic effect and promote the rational drug use.

Objective To observe the effects of Taizhian treatment on macrophages expression in the plaque of aotic intima and blood lipid levels in hypercholesterolemic rabbits. Methods Sixteen male New Zealand rabbits were given 1%high-cholesterol diet. After 8 weeks,these macrophages expression in aotic intima was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Compared with normal rabbits,Taizhian treatment decreased the expression of macrophages in aortic intima by 25%and reduced serum levels of low density lipoprotein-cholesterol by 21%in hypercholesterolemic rabbits(both P<0.05). Conclusions Taizhian may significantly decrease blood lipid level and reduce atherosclerosis in hypercholesterolemic rabbits.

This study was aimed to observe the influence ofQing-Chang Hua-Shi Recipe (QHR) on IL-6trans-signaling in experimental colitis mice, in order to initially explore the possible mechanisms of QHR for ulcerative colitis (UC). TNBS/ethanol was used in the establishment of colitis mice model. After intervention of medication, ELISA was used in the detection of soluble Interleukin-6 receptor (sIL-6R). Real-time PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression level of IL-6 and glycoprotein 130 (gp130). Western blot was used in the observation of protein expression of IL-6 and gp130 in the colonic mucosa. The results showed that the level of sIL-6R, the mRNA and protein expression of IL-6 and gp130 in the model group were significantly higher than that in the control group. QHR was able to reduce the sIL-6R level (P < 0.01), decreased the mRNA and protein expression of IL-6 and gp130 (P < 0.01) in the colon tissues among experimental colitis mice. It was concluded that QHR had good anti-inflammatory effects on experimental colitis mice. It might be associated with influencing IL-6trans-signaling.

Objective:To evaluate the curative effect and safety of fasudil hydrochloride injection in the prevention and treatment of aneurysm postoperative cerebral vasospasm by meta-analysis. Methods: The randomized controlled trials were retrieved from PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, VIP, Wangfang, CNKI and so on. Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5. 0 software. Results:Totally 418 reference studies were screened, from which 11 ones were chosen including 786 patients in all. In the treatment of cerebral vasospasm (CVS), there was no significant difference between the groups (OR=1. 56, 95%CI:0. 95-2. 58, P>0. 05). While in the prevention of CVS, the incidence rate of CVS in fasudil group was significantly lower than that in nimodipine group ( OR=0. 43, 95%CI:0. 23-0. 81, P=0. 008). However, the incidence rate of ADR in fasudile group was higher than that in nimodipine group (OR=0. 43, 95%CI:0. 25-0. 75,P=0. 003). Conclusion:In the prevention of CVS, fasudil may be better than nimodipine, while the incidence of ADR is higher.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of anticoagulant therapy with rivaroxaban in atrial fibrillation( AF) pa-tients after radiofrequency catheter ablation( RFCA) . Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in the study. Totally 141 AF pa-tients with RFCA in our hospital were enrolled from January 2014 to October 2015. The patients were divided into rivaroxaban group(70 patients)and warfarin group (71 patients). In rivaroxaban group,rivaroxaban(10 mg, po,qd)was given for at least 3 months after RFCA. In warfarin group,low molecular heparin (100 IU·kg-1,ih) was given before RFCA, and standard dose of warfarin (3-5 mg,po,qd) was given for at least 3 months by adjusting the INR within the range of 2. 0-3. 0 after RFCA as bridging therapy. The death rate, throm-boem bolism events and bleeding events between the groups were evaluated and companed groups. Results: There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the groups except the diastolic pressure. There were no significant differences in the death and thromboembolism events(transient cerebral ischemia , ischemic encephalopathy, 2/70 vs 4/71,P>0. 05)between the groups. There were no TIMI major bleeding events in both groups. There were no significant differences in minor bleeding events between the groups (3/70 vs 4/71,P>0. 05). Conclusion: Compared with those of warfarin,the effectiveness and safety of rivaroxaban show the similar effect in AF patients after RFCA. Rivaroxaban can be safely and effectively used in AF patients with low or middle risk of thromboembo-lism after RFCA.
