Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and side reaction of tandospimne citrate capsules on treating patients with depression after stroke.Methods Seventy-eight patients who were diagnosed as anxiety and depression after stroke were taken as our subjects.They were randomly divided into control group (n =40) and treatment group (n =38).Patients in the control group were given conventional therapy for cerebral vascular disease and psychological treatment,while in the treatment group were given the same treatment besides tandospimne citrate capsules of 10 mg per times,3 times/d oral,and course of both two groups for 4 weeks.The patients of two groups were scored according to Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD) at the time of pre-treatment and post-treatment.And the the clinical efficacy and side reaction were observed and compared.Results (1) HAMD scores of treatment group in 2,4 weeks after treatment had significantly lower than that before treatment ((8.09±2.21) vs.(6.31 ±2.28) vs.(11.98 ±2.17),P <0.05).HAMD scores of control group in the treatment at 2week was as same as that in 4 weeks((10.57 ±2.53) vs.(8.91 ±2.31)).There was statistically significant difference in two groups in 2,4 weeks after treatment in terms of HAMD scores(P >0.05).The total effective rate of control group was 31.6% (12/38),and 92.5% (37/40) in treatment group,and the difference was significant(x2 =63.69,P < 0.01).In the course of treatment in the two groups,there were no obvious adverse reactions.Conclusion Tandospirone citrate capsules show the clinical curative effect in the treatment of anxiety and depression after stroke,and no obvious adverse reactions.

Objective To evaluate the effect and mechanism of rt-PA combined with high pressure oxygen (HPO)on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats.Methods The model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury was constructed by using middle cerebral artery occlusion.The neurological function score;brain index,water content and infarction volume;SOD;LDH;NOS;MDA;LD;NO and NOS were measured.The protein and mRNA expressions of iNOS,BDNF,p75NTR and TrkB were also detected by RT-PCR and Western blot to evaluate and compare the protective effect of rt-PA combined HPO therapy. Results rt-PA combined HPO could significantly decrease the neurological function score;brain index,water content,and infarction volume;SOD;NOS;MDA;LD;NO and NOS but increase LDH content and the weight of rats,compared with rt-PA.In addition,rt-PA combined HPO could increase BNDF and TrKB expressions and downregulate the expressions of iNOS and p75NTR,compared with rt-PA (P<0.05).Conclusion The rt-PA combined HPO therapy has a greater protective effect than rt-PA therapy and its mechanism might be related to having antioxidant effects, increasing the expressions of BDNF and TrKB,and decreasing the expressions of iNOS and p75NTR.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the physiological and biochemical effects of intermittent fasting combined with hunger-resistant food on mice, and to evaluate the safety and beneficial effects of this regimen. METHODS: One hundred and forty-four adult ICR mice were divided into 4 groups: standard feed AL group (ad libitum intake of standard feed), hunger-resistant food AL group (ad libitum intake of hunger-resistant food), standard feed IF group (feeding standard feed and fasting on alternate days), and hunger-resistant food IF group (feeding hunger-resistant food and fasting on alternate days). The experiment lasted for 4-8 weeks and all mice drank water freely. The quality of life, body weight, fasting blood glucose, serum lipid, blood routine test, liver and kidney functions as well as the viscera indexes were examined. RESULTS: Compared to the standard feed AL group, the caloric taking and the increment of body-weight were reduced (P<0.01), and the viscera indexes of the liver and kidney were elevated (P<0.05) in the hunger-resistant food AL group and the hunger-resistant food IF group, the values of fasting blood glucose were reduced in standard feed IF group and hunger-resistant food IF group (P<0.01), the value of triglycerides was reduced in hunger-resistant food IF group (P<0.05), while the quality of life, blood routine test as well as the liver and kidney functions were not obviously affected in the hunger-resistant food AL group, standard feed IF group and hunger-resistant food IF group. CONCLUSION: The regimen of intermittent fasting combined with hunger-resistant food is safe and beneficial to metabolic regulation, such as controlling body-weight and adjusting blood glucose and serum lipid. It is expected that development of this regimen will be helpful to the control of obesity and diabetes, etc.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of different reduced caloric intake on mice transplanted with S180 ascitic tumor. METHODS: The institute for cancer research (ICR) mice were randomly divided into control group, 3.0 standard feed (SF) group, 2.0 SF group and 1.3 SF group. The mice in control group were fed enough (about 5 g/d) dietary intake, while the amounts of dietary intake in the latter three groups were scaled down in the proportion of 65%, which were 3.0 g, 2.0 g and 1.3 g standard feed respectively. Meanwhile the essential vitamins were added to the latter three groups to keep the amount of intake the same as that of the control's. RESULTS: For most of the mice, the caloric intake obviously prolonged the mean survival days and improved the life quality was 7.14 kcal/d, and the fasting blood glucose level was 2-3 mmol/L. CONCLUSION: Properly reduced caloric intake and keeping lower blood glucose level is beneficial to prolonging the survival time of mice transplanted with S180 ascitic cancer.

Objective:
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of gallstones and common bile duct stones.
Methods:
Eighty-seven patients with gallstones complicated with common bile duct stones who underwent concurrent laparoscopic surgery at Zhoushan Hospital from December 2015 to December 2017 were enrolled.The patients were divided into A group and B group according to the digital table.A group(38 cases) underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) combined with laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE), and B group(49 cases) underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). The curative effect of the two groups was observed.The operation time, the success rate of the operation and the rate of laparotomy were recorded in the two groups.The corresponding hospitalization time and cost were compared.The safety of the two different procedures was compared after surgery, and the complications of the two groups were recorded.
Results:
In A group, the average diameter of common bile duct stones was (1.02±0.25)cm, the average diameter of common bile duct diameter was (1.15±0.25)cm.In B group, the mean diameter of common bile duct stones was (0.99±0.26)cm, and the average diameter of common bile duct was (1.13±0.26) cm.The differences between the two groups were not statistically significant (

Background and purpose:As one of the most fatal malignant tumors in China, the morbidity and mortality of lung cancer remain high. Early diagnosis and normative treatment is the key to improve the prognosis of lung cancer. The aim of this study was to explore the practice of early lung cancer screening with low-dose spiral computed tomography (CT) based on the current situation in community health service, with integration of superior resources of med-ical institutions at all levels in Shanghai.Methods:From Aug. 2013 to Aug. 2014, we screened high-risk population in selected communities of Minhang District, Shanghai, for early diagnosis of lung cancer with low-dose spiral CT combined with multidisciplinary comprehensive treatment models including minimally invasive surgery, exploring the medical service network covering prevention, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and follow-up.Results:Screening population is 11 332 (male 7 144, female 4 188); Twenty-nine cases with pathological diagnosis of malignant tumor, including 27 cases of pri-mary lung cancer, 1 case of lung metastasis, 1 case of breast cancer. The morbidity of primary lung cancer is 238.26×10-5. There were 22 cases of Stage 0-Ⅰ lung cancer accounting for 81.48% of all diagnosed primary lung cancer.Conclusion:Based on community health service, screening with low-dose spiral CT could improve the early diagnosis rate of lung can-cer with feasibility and validity, which could be applicable in qualified eligible medical center and community in China.
