AIM:To investigate the effect of puerarin on acute high glucose-induced attenuation of ACh relaxation in isolated rat aortic rings, and to elucidate its underlying mechanism. METHODS: The thoracic aortic rings with endothelium of male Sprague-Dawley rats were mounted on a bath system. Isometric relaxation of aortic rings was measured. RESULTS: ① After incubation with high concentration of glucose (44 mmol/L), the vascular relaxation responses to ACh decreased. ② After coincubation with puerarin (10-10-10-8 mol/L) and high glucose, the high glucose-induced attenuation of ACh relaxation responses of artery was partly inhibited in a dose-dependent manner. ③ After incubation with puerarin for 2 h, the HO-1 activity of thoracic aorta increased. ZnPPIX (an inhibitor of heme oxygenase-1) abrogated the protective effect of puerarin. CONCLUSION: Puerarin prevents the acute high glucose-induced attenuation of endothelium-dependent relaxation in aortic rings. The mechanism might be involved in the activation of heme oxygenase-1.

The rapidly aging society gives rise to sizable demands for chronic disease nursing care. With IT development as backup, the hospital has developed a platform for regional collaborative nursing informationization within a medical alliance and a health management platform for home care of the elderlies. This practice can build an extended nursing care model, featuring the three main service lines of " hospital-family, hospital-medical alliance and hospital-community hospital-family". The model provides diversified, personalized, disease specific, informationization and multi-disciplinary coverage for nursing care, providing the primary level with high quality nursing resources.Medical alliances and corresponding communities share information, for a full-range, full region and full timeframe coverage of nursing health supervision and scientific guidance, thus effectively minimizing the rate of revisit to upper-level hospitals by patients and implementing the hierarchical medical system.
