Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of butylphthalide soft capsules for treatment of acute cerebral infarction and its effect on the neurological function and inflammatory reaction of patients.Methods A total of 100 patients with acute cerebral infarction in the First Hospital of Zhangjiakou City and the Third Hospital Affiliated to Hebei North University from January 2016 to October 2016 were selected and divided into control group (n =50) and treatment group (n =50) according to the treatment protocols.The patients in the control group were given anti-platelet aggregation,statins,and other routine treatment;based on this,the patients in treatment group were orally administrated with butylphthalide soft capsules.The elbow venous blood of patients in the two groups was collected and the C reactive protein(CRP),interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels,the platelet aggregation rate were detected.The change of National Institute of Health stroke scale(NIHSS) score of patients after four weeks treatment was compared between the two groups.The recovery of neurological function of patients in the two groups was evaluated by modified Rankin grading after three months treatment.Results There was no statistic difference in the CRP,IL-6 levels and platelet aggregation rate before treatment between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The CRP,IL-6 levels and platelet aggregation rate of patients in the two groups after one week treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment (P ＜ 0.05);and the CRP,IL-6 levels and platelet aggregation rate of patients in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group after one week treatment (P ＜ 0.05).The NIHSS score of patients in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group after four weeks treatment (P ＜ 0.05);the Rankin score of patients in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group after three months treatment (P ＜ 0.05).The total effective rate of patients in the treatment group was significantly higher than that in the control group (x2 =13.22,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Butylphthalide soft capsules can significantly reduce the inflammatory reaction in patients with acute cerebral infarction,improve and recover the neurologic impairment;and its curative effect is remarkable.

Aim To investigate the time-dependent effect of insulin on the expression of SREBP-1(sterol regulatory element binding protein-1),FAS(fat acid synthase)and lipid droplet formation in HKC cells(human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells line).MethodsHKC cells were respectively treated with 100 nmol·L~(-1) insulin for 0,2,4,6,12 h and 24 h.The analysis of SREBP-1 and FAS mRNA was performed by RT-PCR and the expression of SREBP-1 protein was detected by Western blot and immunocytochemistry.Furthermore,Oil Red O staining was used to determine cellular lipid droplet formation.ResultsCompared with HKC cells of 0 h group,there was no difference of SREBP-1 and FAS mRNA in HKC cells of 2 h group.However,the expression of SREBP-1 and FAS mRNA was significantly increased in HKC cells of 4,6 h and 12 h group.Further,the most expression of SREBP-1 and FAS mRNA was at 6 h group and was respectively increased by 3.578 and 4.272 times compared with 0 h group.The results of Western blot showed that the precursor and mature segments of SREBP-1 protein in 4,6 h and 12 h group HKC cells were increased and those of 6 h group HKC cells were the highest and about 4.106 and 5.167 times than those of 0 h group HKC cells.Immunocytochemistry presented the result that SREBP-1 protein was located in the plasma and the expression of 4,6 h and 12 h group HKC cells was significantly higher than that of 0,2 h and 24 h group HKC cells.The result of Oil Red O staining showed that lipid droplet markedly deposited in 6 h group HKC cells,contrarily,no lipid droplet was found in HKC cells of other groups.ConclusionAbove results suggested that insulin up-regulated SREBP-1 and FAS in time-dependent manner that led to cellular lipid droplet deposit,which may play an important role in the pathogenesis of renal lipid accumulation in metabolism syndrome.

Purpose To investigate the role of PTEN in podocyte injury in patients with diabetic nephropathy ( DN) . Methods Uri-nary samples from 30 patients with DN and 10 healthy volunteers were collected to detect the level of PCX by ELISA. Renal biopsies were reviewed to observe the morphological changes. All patients with DN were divided into three groups by glomerular lesion. The ex-pression of p-Akt and PTEN in glomeruli was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results The levels of PCX in the urine were signifi-cantly higher in patients with DN compared with those in healthy volunteers, and gradually increased along with glomerular lesion aggra-vating. The expression of p-Akt and PTEN increased in patients with DN compared with healthy volunteers. Although the expression of p-Akt and PTEN decreased with the aggravation of glomerular lesion, they were still higher than that in volunteers. There were obvious-ly positive correlation between the level of PCX and 24-h urinary protein and negative correlation between the level of PCX and the ex-pression level of p-Akt and PTEN. Conclusion PTEN down-regulation may be associated with podocyte injury in DN, which may be associated with the phosphorylation of Akt.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of the treatment of scar formation after severe acne type Ⅳ by acupuncture.Methods:In Henan Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, 60 patients with acne who met the inclusion criteria were selected and divided into observation group and control group according to the randomized controlled grouping method. The observation group(9 male and 21 female, age 18-29) was treated with fire needle and salicylic acid.The control group(10 male and 20 female, age 18-27 ) was treated with needle and salicylic acid.The patients in both groups were treated with tanshinone capsule and salicylate acne pill orally.The course of treatment was 8 weeks. The two groups of clinical efficacy, acne severity score scale (Gags) to evaluate symptom improvement, vancouver scar scale, acne scar weight score were observed and compared.Results:Eight weeks after treatment, the effect rate was 90.00% (27/30) in the observation group and 68.97% (20/29) in the control group. The scores of Vancouver scar scale were (3.66 ± 0.91) in the observation group and (5.06 ± 1.09) in the control group ( P< 0.01). The scores of acne scar weight score were (39.40 ± 16.90) in the observation group and (53.16 ± 17.19) in the control group( P< 0.01). The scores of Gags in the observation group and the control group were (10.31 ± 2.14) and (17.55 ± 2.63)( P< 0.01), respectively. Conclusions:The treatment of Ⅳ grade severe acne skin lesions by fire needle is safe, effective, reliable and easy to operate. It can safely and effectively improve the patient’s facial skin lesions, and reduce the possibility of scar formation and pigmentation, so it is worthy of clinical application.

Background: Intraoperative hypercapnia reduces the time to emergence from volatile anesthetics, but few clinical studies have explored the effect of hypercapnia on the emergence time from intravenous (IV) anesthesia. We investigated the effect of inducing mild hypercapnia during the recovery period on the emergence time after total IV anesthesia (TIVA). Methods: Adult patients undergoing transurethral lithotripsy under TIVA were randomly allocated to normocapnia group (end-tidal carbon dioxide [ETCO2] 35–40 mmHg) or mild hypercapnia group (ETCO2 50-55 mmHg) during the recovery period. The primary outcome was the extubation time. The spontaneous breathing-onset time, voluntary eye-opening time, and hemodynamic data were collected. Changes in the cerebral blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery were assessed using transcranial Doppler ultrasound. Results: In total, 164 patients completed the study. The extubation time was significantly shorter in the mild hypercapnia (13.9 ± 5.9 min, P = 0.024) than in the normocapnia group (16.3 ± 7.6 min). A similar reduction was observed in spontaneous breathing-onset time (P = 0.021) and voluntary eye-opening time (P = 0.008). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the adjusted ETCO2 level was a negative predictor of extubation time. Middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity was significantly increased after ETCO2 adjustment for mild hypercapnia, which rapidly returned to baseline, without any adverse reactions, within 20 min after extubation. Conclusions Mild hypercapnia during the recovery period significantly reduces the extubation time after TIVA. Increased ETCO2 levels can potentially enhance rapid recovery from IV anesthesia.
