Objective: To observe the efficacy of acupuncture combined with naloxone hydrochloride in the treatment of coma after surgery for cerebral hemorrhage and to explore its possible mechanism of action. Methods: Seventy-two patients were divided into a control group and an observation group according to the random number table method, with 36 cases in each group. The control group was treated with intravenous naloxone hydrochloride, and the observation group received additional acupuncture treatment. After 1 month of treatment, the awakening rate, Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score, cerebral edema volume, mean velocity (Vm) of the middle cerebral artery, and cerebrospinal fluid Caspase-3, and macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) levels were compared between the two groups. Results: During the study, there were 2 cases of shedding in the control group and 34 remaining valid cases; 1 case of shedding in the observation group and 35 remaining valid cases. After treatment, the awakening rate was higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05); the GCS score increased in both groups compared with that before treatment (P<0.05), and was higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05); the volume of cerebral edema decreased in both groups (P<0.05), and was smaller in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05); the middle cerebral artery Vm increased in both groups (P<0.05), and was higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05); the cerebrospinal fluid Caspase-3 and MIF levels decreased significantly in both groups (P<0.05) and were lower in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Acupuncture combined with naloxone hydrochloride for the treatment of coma after surgery for cerebral hemorrhage can promote patients' awakening, improve the degree of coma, reduce the volume of cerebral edema, and enhance cerebral blood flow velocity, producing a better effect than naloxone hydrochloride used alone; it may be related to its reduction of cerebrospinal fluid Caspase-3 and MIF levels.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a proliferative vascular retinal disease. Cryotherapy, laser photocoagulation, intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, scleral buckling surgery and vitrectomy are the main treatments. Treated with cryotherapy or laser photocoagulation or intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, patients with a history of ROP have thicker foveas, and the morphology of the fovea and the development of the retinal vessels in the macular area are affected, resulting in abnormal vision development. However, the specific mechanisms by which different treatments of ROP affecting the development of the macula are not yet clear. It still need further study with large samples to verify and explore, whether changes in the levels of intraocular vascular endothelial growth factor changing the process of normal macular development and how the abnormal development of the macula affects visual function.

[Summary] Thirty-two SD rats were randomly divided into noraml control group(NC, n = 10) and high fat diet group(HF, n=22). 10 weeks later, the HF group rats were injected STZ(30 mg/ kg) to set up the model of diabetes complicating with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Then, HF group were randomly divided into model control group(MC, n = 8) and Saxagliptin intervene group( M + S, n = 8). The M + S group were made an intervention with Saxagliptin(10 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 ) for 8 weeks. At the end of 18 weeks, the fasting blood glucose, serum insulin, liver function, liver weight, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and interleukin 6 were measured. HOMA-IR was calculated. Western bolt was used to determine the expression of NF-κB in hepatic tissue. The level of the indexes above increased in the MC group than in the NC group. But the indexes above mentioned in M + S group were ameliorated. The expression of NF-κB was significantly up regulated in MC group as compared with the NC group, and significantly reduced in the M+S group than in the MC group. The results of correlation analysis revealed that TNF-αand IL-6 were positive correlated with HOMR-IR, respectively. Saxagliptin can effectively reduce the blood glucose level and alleviate insulin resistance, then further relieve the inflammation of liver injury, and finally to alleviate the condition of T2DM with NAFLD. It may play a protective role in the damaged hepatic cells.
