OBJECTIVE:To discuss clinical efficacy and safety of alteplase combined with butylphthalide to the patients with acute ischemic stroke. METHODS:98 patients with acute ischemic stroke in our hospital were selected and divided into ob-servation group and control group according to random number table,with 49 patients in each group. Control group was addition-ally given Butylphthalide and sodium chloride injection 100 ml,ivgtt,bid,on the basis of routine treatment as controlling blood glucose,blood pressure,etc.;observation group additionally received Alteplase for injection 5 mg added into NS 10 ml,iv+Al-teplase for injection 45 mg added into NS 100 ml,ivgtt,qd,on the basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. Clinical efficacies of 2 groups were compared as well as cerebral infarction area,NIHSS score,ability score of daily liv-ing,the levels of IL-6,IL-8,IL-10,CRP,24 h urine protein,Scr and creatinine clearance rate before and after treatment. The occurrence of ADR was also recorded. RESULTS:1 patient of observation group and 2 patients of control group withdrew from the study due to severe hemorrhage. Total effective rate of observation group(95.83%)was significantly higher than that of con-trol group(80.85%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in above in-dexes between 2 groups (P>0.05). The cerebral infarction area and NIHSS score were reduced significantly in observation group after treatment,ability score of daily living were increased significantly in observation group after treatment,and the im-provement of observation group was significantly better than control group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). 24 h urine protein and Scr of observation group was significantly lower than those of control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). the level of IL-6 in observation group 1 week after treatment and the levels of IL-6,IL-8,IL-10 and CRP 2 weeks after treat-ment were significantly lower than in control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Alteplase combined with butylphthalide show signifi-cant therapeutic efficacy,can effectively reduce the level of serum inflammatory factors,control brain tissue ischemia and cere-bral infarction area,and improve neurologic function and pro-tect renal function in patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Objective Investigate the behaviors of cerebral ischemic rats after treatment with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs).Methods Bone marrow was collected and BMSCs were separated and cultivated.Twenty-four adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were performed transient(2 hours) middle cerebral arterial occlusion(MCAO) and then divided into treated group(n=12) and control group(n=12).All rats received corresponding behavioral training before surgery,15 ?L hBMSCs(2?1010cells/L) and D-hanks(15 ?L) were injected into the brain cortex after 24 h of MCAO.Morris water maze test,NSS,Rotarod test and adhesive-removal test were performed serially and cyclically from the 4th day after transplantation.Results Since the 8th day after transplantation,the mean escape time and the mean swimming distance of treated group significantly are shorter than control's in Morris water maze test(P

Objective To compare and evaluate the efficacy of three operating procedures to produce permanent rat models of cerebral ischemia, including mortality, neurological evaluation score, infarction volume of ischemia and time consumed in the operation. Methods The rats were randomly divided into three groups. Group 1: The common carotid artery (CCA) and external carotid artery (ECA) were ligated during the operation and ICA was clipped temporarily by artery clamp. Group 2: The CCA and ECA were ligated and the superior thyroid artery and pterygopalatine artery were exposed but not ligated. Silk suture was utilized to hang the internal carotid artery (ICA). Plastic suture was inserted into ICA and stepped over the initiation point of pterygopalatine artery under microscopic observation. Group 3: The CCA and ECA were ligated and ICA was hanged with a silk suture, and the pterygopalatine artery was not exposed, but during the period of inserting plastic suture, the proximal part of the suture was pressed to make the suture's round distal end elevated, and then pass the initial point of pterygopalatine artery. Mortality, neurological score, volume of ischemic infarction and operation time consumed of the three groups were compared after the operation. Results The procedure to prepare the model was most efficient in the group 3, taking only 17.5 min to complete, significantly less than that in the group 1 (50 min) and group 2 (40 min), (P<0.05), and with a lower mortality and more steady neurological evaluation score and infarction volume. Conclusion The use of the third operating method can shorten the operation time and improve the efficacy of operation. Using this method, more consistent and repetitive focal cerebral ischemia models can be produced effectively, and meet the demands of clinical trials.
