Objective:To observe the curative effect of vinpocetine combined with Danhong injections in the treatment of posterior circulation ischemia syndrome. Methods:Totally 120 patients with posterior circulation ischemia syndrome were selected and randomly divided into the treatment group and the control group with 60 cases in each. Both groups were treated by the conventional therapy, meanwhile, the treatment group was given vinpocetine and Danhong injections, and the control group was given vinpocetine alone. The treatment course was 14 days. The curative effect was observed, blood rheology and hemodynamics were also studied. Results:The to-tal effective rate of the treatment group was 95. 0%, which was significantly higher than that of the control group (75. 0%) with statis-tically significant difference(P<0. 05). After the treatment, the blood rheology (viscosity, low shear viscosity, plasma viscosity and reduced viscosity) and TCD ( LVA, RVA, BA and PI) in the two groups were significantly improved, and the treatment group showed more significant improvement(P<0. 05). Conclusion:Vinpocetine combined with Danhong injections in the treatment of posterior cir-culation ischemia syndrome has significant effect in the effective improvement of blood rheology and hemodynamics, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Antiangiogenesis therapy is one of the most common anticancer therapies. Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody that blocks the binding of the vascular endothelial growth factor to its high-affinity receptors. It is the only antiangiogenic agent approved for the first-line treatment of advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Many recent studies have attempted to determine the suit-able partners of bevacizumab in first-line treatment of NSCLC and evaluate its efficacy and safety as a second-line or beyond and con-tinuous treatment of beyond disease progression in patients with advanced NSCLC. This review summarizes current clinical research about the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab in the treatment of advanced NSCLC.

According to two kinds of acupoint combination methods for Huahe and Huhe in five-door and ten-change theory proposed by the deceased Taiwanese famous acupuncturist Mr. ZHOU Zuo-yu, the origin of the change theory proposed by the deceased Taiwanese famous acupuncturist Mr. ZHOU Zuo-yu, the origin of the acupoint combination method of five-door and ten-change is introduced. This method combines traditional philosophy of Yi with medicine, which is featured with casual timing, casual pattern, capacity to be combined with TCM syndrome differentiation, specific application scope and pertinence. Some clinical cases are additionally presented to verify this method. Huhe method is mostly used for Bi-syndrome while Huahe method has better effects on internal medicine diseases. They open the new thinking methods for clinical acupoint selection.

The microinjection of brain nuclei and potassium iontophresis induced tail flick were used to investigate the effect of injecting oxytocin (OT) or anti-oxytocin serum (AOTS) into locus ceruleus (LC) on the pain threshold (PT) and morphine analgesia. The result showed that OT injection into LC could enhance PT, while ATOS injection could reduce PT. The OT injection could strengthen morphine analgesia, but AOTS injection could antagonize this action. These results suggest that the OT analgesia and OT-enhanced morphine analgesia were related with the locus ceruleus.

Objective To investigate the effect of hypertension on the large artery elasticity index (C1),the small artery elasticity index (C2) and the medial structure of the ascending aorta as well as the relationship between artery elasticity and the medial structure of the ascending aorta.Methods Sixty patients with CHD receiving coronary artery bypass graft surgery at our hospital were divided into two groups:30 patients in the hypertension group and 30 patients in the non-hypertension group.C1 and C2 were measured using the CVProfilor DO-2020 system.Sections of tissues taken from the anterior wall of the ascending aorta during the surgery were subjected to Masson's trichrome staining for the detection of vascular smooth muscle and collagen fibers and Weigert's resorcin-fuchsin staining for the detection of elastic fibers.The relative areas of vascular smooth muscle fibers,collagen fibers and elastic fibers of the ascending aorta were measured by a computer image analysis system under the light microscope.The linear correlations of C1 and C2 with the medial structure of the ascending aorta were analyzed.Results C1 in the non hypertension group was higher than that in thehypertensiongroup[11.9±1.8 (ml/mmHg×10) w 13.1±2.5 (ml/mmHg×10),t 2.22,P ＜0.05].In the media of the ascending aorta,the relative content of collagen fibers was higher,while the relative content of elastic fibers was lower in the hypertension group than in the non-hypertension group [(46.0±3.8)％ w (42.2±3.0)％,(17.5±3.5)％ vs.(19.3 2.7)％,respectively,t=4.24 and 2.20,P＜0.01 or 0.05].C1 was positively correlated with the relative content of elastic fibers but negatively correlated with the relative content of collagen fibers in both groups (r=0.52 and 0.39,respectively,P＜0.05 or 0.01).Conclusions The main pathogenic basis of hypertension-induced decline in arterial elasticity in CHD patients is increased collagen fibers and reduced elastic fibers with disorganization of the two types of components.C1 may accurately reflect the effect of hypertension on medial collagen fibers and elastic fibers in the ascending aorta.

Aim To investigate the effects of cajanonic acid A (CAA) on lipid metabolism in murine 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Methods 3T3-L1 cells induced to differ-entiated into mature adipocytes were treated with CAA in different dosages for 48 h, then total lipids as well as triglyceride, free fatty acid and glycerol were meas-ured. The expression levels of genes related to lipid metabolism were quantitatively analyzed by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymearase chain reaction ( RTFQ-PCR) . Results Total lipids and triglyceride in 3T3-L1 adipocytes were markedly reduced by CAA. The release of free fatty acid and glycerol was lower than that of control. This coincided with decreased mRNA levels of the key enzymes involved in de novo lipogenesis ( acetyl CoA carboxylase and fatty acid syn-thase) , fatty acid uptake ( lipoprotein lipase) , and li-polysis ( hormone sensitive lipase and adipose triglycer-ide lipase ) . While the expression of fatty acid oxida-tive genes including acyl CoA oxidase and carnitine palmitoyl transferase1 was increased after CAA treat-ment. Conclusion CAA may inhibit lipogenesis and lipolysis,reduce circulating free fatty acid and improve the lipid metabolism in adipocytes by regulating gene expressions.

Objective To study the expression and clinical significance of miR-183-5p, TβRⅠ and TβRⅡ in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Methods The mRNA and protein expression of miR-183-5p, TβRⅠ and TβRⅡ were examined in ESCC cell lines ECA-109, TE-1, normal esophageal epithelial cells, tumor tissues and tumor-free tissues from 72 ESCC patients. Their clinical significance and the relationship between miR-183-5p and the latter two were analyzed. The effects of miR-183-5p on the expression of TβRⅠand TβRⅡ in ECA-109 cells and the cell functions of ECA-109 were also investigated. Results Compared with the normal esophageal epithelia cells, ESCC cell lines TE-1 and ECA-109 were statistically characterized by a high expression of miR-183-5p (all P<0.05) and low expression of TβRⅠand TβRⅡ(all P<0.05). The expression of miR-183-5p in ESCC tissues was higher than that in adjacent normal tissues, while the expressions of TβRⅠ and TβRⅡ were lower (all P< 0.05). The expression of miR-183-5p was closely related to sex, tumor differentiation, tumor staging, distant metastasis, lymphatic metastasis, and tumor location (all P<0.05). TβRⅠlevel was associated with sex, lymph node metastasis and tumor size (all P<0.05). Experimental data showed the negative correlation between the expression of miR-183-5p and TβRⅠin ESCC tissues (r= -0.521, P< 0.05). Over expression of miR-183-5p significantly inhibited the expression of TβRⅠ in ECA-109 cells (P< 0.05) and promoted the growth, invasion and metastasis of ECA-109 cells (P< 0.05). Low expression of miR-183-5p significantly promoted the expression of TβRⅠ in ECA-109 cells (P< 0.05), and suppressed the growth, invasion and metastasis of ECA-109 cells (P< 0.05). There was no significant change in the expression of TβRⅡ in the transfection experiments. Conclusion MiR-183-5p is closely related to the abnormal expression of TβRⅠ, which may exert an important role in the progression of lymphatic metastasis.

BACKGROUND:Rehabilitation brace can significantly improve the motor function of patients with post-stroke hemiplegia. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the types and biocompatibility of brace materials for post-stroke hemiplegia. METHODS: A computer-based search of Wanfang, CNKI, PubMed databases was performed for articles related to post-stroke hemiplegia and biocompatibility of brace materials published from 1999 to 2015 using the keywords of cerebral apoplexy, hemiplegia, support, material in Chinese and English, respectively. In the same field, the articles published recently or in authoritative journals were preferred. Finaly, 15 articles were enroled in result analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Thermoplastic orthoses are mainly made of polypropylene materials, which are used for foot drop caused by post-stroke hemiplegia. Polypropylene has high strength and good toughness, and it is also safe and non-toxic. Semi-rigid planta pedis can help the lift of the toe in swing phase. Orthoses made of polymer fiber materials are characterized by ease of use, good toughness, high strength, and good air permeability, which cannot impact X-ray examination. Carbon fiber materials have light mass, high specific strength and modulus, good anti-fatigue performance, good safety performance and good designability. Clinical trials have shown that patients wearing ankle foot orthoses made of polypropylene and carbon fiber materials have improvement in walking distance and speed of climbing stairs, and these patients also feel more balanced and secure. Experimental studies on different orthotics materials can get more patient preferences, which have a great help for the design and development of orthotics materials.
