Objective To study the effects and mechanism of Nimodipine on patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage (HCH) by measuring the cerebral vascular hemodynamics indexes(CVHI).Methods 96 patients with HCH were randomly divided into the Nimodipine therapeutic group (57 cases) and the control group (39 cases). All patients were given conventional treatments, while Nimodipine was given to the Nimodipine therapeutic group. The CVHI parameters were measured in the two groups before and after treatment. Volume of hematoma and area of edema were measured by CT scan. Therapeutic effects were assessed by physician respectively. Results In contrast with the control group, Qmean increased significantly in the Nimodipine therapeutic group after treatment (P

Objective To study the relationship between the plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and the severity of disease as well as outcome in patients with cerebral hemorrhage at early stage. Methods The CRP plasma levels were measured by scatter turbidimetry in 89 patients with cerebral hemorrhage within 24 hrs after onset of the disease. The control group included 30 healthy people who received medical examinations. We analyzed the relationship between CRP levels and the severity of disease as well as outcome.Results CRP levels were less than 8 mg/L (4.21?1.78 mg/L) in control group, and increased in 51 patients with cerebral hemorrhage (30.33?2.53 mg/L), with an abnormal rate of 57.30%. CRP levels and abnormal rate differed significantly (all P

Objective To explore the effect of ginseng combined with transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)on functional recovery of rats with spinal cord injury(SCI). Methods Forty-eight female Wistar rats were randomly assigned to following four groups(n=12 per group):the sham operation group was treated by opening the vertebral lamina and exposing spinal cord without SCI;the SCI model group was reproduced by using improved Allen bump method and afterwards no treatment was given;methyl prednisolone(MP)group was treated by MP pulse treatment after SCI,including intravenous injection of MP 30 mg/kg immediately after SCI and 4 hours later the same injection was repeated,and then the same intravenous injection 2 times daily,3 days in total;The ginseng+BMSCs group was treated by orally taking ginseng ultra-microgranules 300 mg/kg after SCI,twice a day for 20 days and BMSCs 5μL(concentration 1×107 cell/μL)transplantation was carried out in SCI region on the 7th day after SCI. In the above 4 groups,the ethological observation(BBB scores)was done regularly and on the 30th day after operation,silver staining was applied to investigate the changes of spinal cord,and neuro-electrophysiological tests including somatosensory evoked potential(SEP)and motor evoked potential(MEP)were performed. Results In sham operation group,after surgery the movement of both hind limbs became temporarily sluggish and on the 7th day their functions recovered to approximately normal. In SCI model group,after injury paralysis of both hind limbs occurred,while in the MP group and ginseng+BMSCs group,different degrees of functional recovery of the injured limbs developed,and the recovery in ginseng + BMSCs group was more significant. Compared with sham operation group,after surgery the BBB score was reduced markedly at various time points in SCI model group;compared to the SCI model group,the BBB scores in MP and ginseng+BMSCs groups were increased significantly,especially more remarkable in ginseng+BMSCs group(all P<0.05),and beginning from the 12th day after operation,the difference became obvious (5.23±1.22 vs. 3.61±1.03, P<0.05). Histological detection showed that in sham operation group,the structure of spinal cord was complete,neurons distributed evenly in the gray matter and a large number of silver staining positive nerve fibers paralleled to each other and arranged regularly;in SCI model group,fragmented construction was present and the defects of gray and white matters were prominent. Compared with the SCI model group, the extents of tissue necrosis in MP and ginseng + BMSCs groups were ameliorated. The neuro-electrophysiological tests demonstrated that in SCI model group,the loss of normal wave form occurred. Compared with SCI model group,in MP and ginseng+BMSCs groups,after treatment latent periods(ms)were shortened prominently in different degrees of SEP and MEP,and their peak-to-peak values(mV)were increased obviously;the improvement in potential in ginseng+BMSCs group was greater than that in MP group〔SEP:latent period(ms):3.31±0.36 vs. 4.66±0.33, peak-to-peak value(mV):0.10±0.01 vs. 0.05±0.01,MEP:latent period(ms):3.40±0.13 vs. 4.24±0.31, peak-to-peak value(mV):41.12±0.56 vs. 16.46±2.83,all P<0.05〕. Conclusion A combined treatment of ginseng and BMSCs transplantation can effectively promote the recovery of neural function for rats with SCI.

AIM　To assess the pharmacokinetic profile of single doses of meloxicam in healthy Chinese volunteers. METHODS　The plasma concentrations of meloxicam after an oral dose of 15 mg to twenty healthy male volunteers were analized by means of a validated HPLC method. The pharmacokinetic parameters were subjected to Shapiro-Wilk test to determine whether these data were fitted to a normal distribution. RESULTS The twenty volunteers can be classified into extensive metabolizers and poor metabolizers according to pharmacokinetic parameters. The main parameters in the two groups obtained were as follows: T1/2 were 21±4 and 38±9 h, AUC0-∞ were 49±10 and 110±8 μg*h*mL-1, respectively. Even the AUC data in extensive metabolizers were 1.7 times as that reported in White volunteers following the same doses of meloxicam. CONCLUSION　There were significant individual differences in the pharmacokinetics of meloxicam in Chinese volunteers, which may be due to the genetic polymorphism of CYP2C9.

Objective:To investigate the repair effects and mechanism of mesenchymal stem cell osteogenesis-derived exosomes deliver miRNA-222-5p on tendon cell injury.Methods:Mesenchymal stem cell exosomes were collected, isolated and characterized. The mice achilles tendon was collected after cutting one week later. The tendon cells were isolated and cultured to obtain a tendon cell injury model (injury group). The subjects were divided into three groups. During the process of osteogenic differentiation, mesenchymal stem cells were co-cultured with tendon cells (co-culture group). Further, miRNA-222-5p mimics were transfected into mesenchymal stem cells, the co-cultured mesenchymal stem cells and tendon cells during the process of osteogenic differentiation (miRNA-222-5p group). Clone formation and Transwell were used to detect the ability of mesenchymal stem cells to secrete exosomes and exosomes transported miRNA-222-5p to repair damaged tendon cells. qPCR, Western-blot and fluorescence staining were used to detect the expression levels of cartilage-related proteins and bone-related proteins on mRNA and protein. Western-blot was used to detect the expression of signal pathway factors.Results:The shape of the exosomes was a typical cup - like structure. The exosome proteins marker was all expressed positively ( P<0.05). After counting the colony formation and Transwell test, the number of cell communities and cell invasion were significantly increased in the co-culture group compared with those in the injury group. The number of those in miRNA-222-5p group were significantly increased compared with those in co-culture group ( P<0.05). The qPCR, Western-blot and fluorescent staining test results showed that the mRNA and protein expression levels of SOX-9, COL2A1, ACAN, BMP2, Runx2, and OPN in the co-culture group were significantly increased compared with the injury group. The mRNA and protein expression levels of the above proteins in the miRNA-222-5p group were significantly increased compared with those in co-culture group ( P<0.05). We also detected the protein expression levels of signal pathway related factors. Western-blot results showed that the expression levels of NF-κB, Erk2, STAT3, STAT5 and Smad2 in the co-culture group were significantly increased compared with those in the injury group. The expression levels of the above factors in the miRNA-222-5p group were significant increased compared with the co-culture group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The co-culture of mesenchymal stem cells and achilles tendon cells could promote the osteogenic differentiation of achilles tendon cells. Exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells could further promote the osteogenic differentiation of achilles tendon cells by transporting miRNA-222-5p. The mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of signal pathway factors in injured tendons, including NF-κB, Erk2, STAT3, STAT5 and Smad2.

Objective:To compare the choriocapillaris flow density and choroidal vessel volume (CVV) of acute and chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC).Methods:A cross-sectional observational clinical study. A total of 64 eyes of 64 patients (CSC group) diagnosed with CSC at Department of Ophthalmology of West China Hospital of Sichuan University from May 2019 to October 2020, and a total of 64 eyes of 64 age and gender matched healthy volunteers (control group) during the same period were included in this study. In the CSC group, there were 34 patients with acute CSC (acute CSC group) and 30 patients with chronic CSC (chronic CSC group). There was no significant difference in age ( t=-0.041) and sex composition ratio ( χ2=0.191) between CSC group and control group ( P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences in age ( t=-1.872) and sex composition ratio ( χ2=8.778) between acute CSC group and chronic CSC group( P<0.05). Swept source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) was performed using VG200D. The scanning mode was 512×512 and scannig range was 12 mm × 12 mm. The choriocapillaris flow density of the 3 mm, 6 mm, 12 mm circular area and 1-3 mm ring, 3-6 mm ring, and 6-12 mm ring, and the CVV of the of the 3 mm, 6 mm, 12 mm circular area was automatically generated by the built-in software (v1.28.6). The age, choriocapillaris flow density and CVV were compared between two groups using independent sample t test. Results:Compared with the control group, the choriocapillaris flow density decreased in the CSC group, and there were statistically significant differences in the 3 mm, 6 mm circular area ( t=-7.210, -4.040; P<0.001). There were statistically significant differences between CSC group and control group in the 3 mm, 6 mm, 12 mm circular area ( t=1.460, 12.270, 11.250; P<0.05). Compared with the acute CSC group, the choriocapillaris flow density decreased in the chronic CSC group, and there were statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) in the 3 mm, 6 mm circular area ( t=3.230, 2.330), the total and four quadrants of 1-3 mm ring ( t=2.780, 2.060, 2.140, 2.620, 3.770), the superior quadrants of the 3-6 mm ring ( t=2.550), and the superior and temporal of 6-12 mm ring ( t=3.070, 2.610). There was no significant difference of CVV in the 3 mm, 6 mm and 12 mm circular area between the acute CSC group and the chronic CSC group ( t=0.250, 0.070, -0.110; P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with acute CSC, chronic CSC exhibits significant decreased choriocapillaris flow density and no change in CVV.
