Objective To investigate the curative efficacy of adjuvant therapy of atorvastatin in chronic subdural haematoma ( CSDH ) patients treated with trepanation and drainage and its effects on level of serum neuron specific enolase ( NSE ) .Methods 98 patients of CSDH who received therapy in our hospital from January 2014 to April 2016 were selected as research objects.Retrospectively analyzing their clinic materials,those patients were divided into the control group(n=46)and the observation group(n=52)according to therapeutic schemes.The control group were given therapy of trepanation and drainage.Besides that,the observation group were given atorvastatin additionally.2 months later,curative efficacy,China stroke scale (CSS)score and ability of daily life(ADL)score were compared between the two groups.And level of serum NSE between the two groups before treatment and after 7 days were compared.Results The total therapeutic efficacy ratio of CSDH in the observation group was 88.5%,which was statistically higher than that of 71.7% in the control group(P<0.05).2 months after the treatment,in comparison with the control group,the observation group has lower CSS score(15.89 ±3.24 points vs.19.21 ±4.17 points)and higher ADL score(95.24 ±11.36 points vs.89.05 ±10.12 points)with both statistical differences( P<0.05 ) .7 days after the treatment, level of serum NSE in the observation group was statistically lower than that in the control group (10.38 ±2.35 U/mL vs.14.06 ±2.68 U/mL,P <0.05).Conclusion Adjuvant therapy of atorvastatin is effective for CSDH patients treated with trepanation and drainage,and it could improve neurologic function,ability of daily life and reduce level of serum NSE.

Objective To observe the efficacy and adverse reaction of the test drug hepatitis B immunoglobin on the post market.Method Employed by the methods of multiple center's clinical trials and using the recommended dosage of hepatitis B immunoglobulin for intravenous administration,the clinical efficacy of either prevention or treatment for hepatitis B recurrence and drug related adverse reactions were observed.This consisted of 22.1 months,13 hospitals,and 525 patients with hepatitis B related liver transplantation.Result The results showed a contrasting probability of adverse reactions for different doses among the observation period.Within 6 months postoperatively with a greater or equal to recommended drug dose,the infection rate was less than 4%.In contrast,the infection rate was greater than 12% in the group with less than the recommended drug dose.Conclusion There was an obvious dose effect relationship,and the drug safety and recommended treatment rationality were verified.

OBJECTIVETo study the expression of HIF-1alpha and SDF-1/CXCR4 in repopulating H22 tumor tissue and the mechanism of angiogenesis of polypeptide extract from scorpion venom (PESV) during chemotherapy treatment.
METHODThe expression of HIF-1alpha and SDF-1/CXCR4 in H22 tumor tissue was monitored by immunohistochemistry, and the expression level was determined by Qwin V3 image analyzing software. The correlation between HIF-1alpha and SDF-1 was analyzed. SDF-1 content was detected by ELISA.
RESULTHIF-1alpha expression was found no difference in model group between 14 d and 21 d, and up-regulated in 28 d. There was no change of HIF-1alpha expression was observed in low-dose PESV group. In high-dose PESV group, the level of HIF-1alpha expression was high in 14 d and low in 21 d. ELISA detecting showed SDF-1 content increased slowly from 14 d to 21 d, highly from 21 d to 28 d. But in high-dose PESV groups, the content increased slowly all the time. The immunohitochemistry method got the same result with ELISA. Correlation analysis showed r = 0.805. CXCR4 expression down-regulated in two PESV treated groups, and no difference was found between these two groups.
CONCLUSIONHIF-1alpha and SDF-1 participated in VEGF expression and angiogenesis in tumor tissue during chemotherapy, while PESV could inhibit the expression of HIF-1alpha and SDF-I.

AIM:To investigate the regulatory role of retinoid X receptor(RXR)in oxidative stress response of rat type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells(AECII)induced by hypoxia/reoxygenation(HR).METHODS:The AECII were di-vided into control(C)group,HR group,HR+solvent dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO)group(HD group),HR+RXR agonist 9-cis-retinoic acid(9-RA)group(RA group),and HR+RXR antagonist HX531 group(HX group).Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)method was used to measure the cell viability.Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the expression of surfactant protein A(SP-A)and RXRα in AECII.Kits were detected to the levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and malondialdehyde(MDA)in cells.Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the ultrastructural changes of the cells.Western blot was used to detect the protein level of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2).RT-PCR was used to detect the expression level of Nrf2 mRNA.RESULTS:Compared with C group,the cell viability and SOD activity in HR,HD,RA and HX groups were decreased significantly(P<0.05),the MDA content were increased significantly(P<0.05),the Nrf2 mRNA and protein expression levels were decreased significantly(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the immuno-fluorescence expression of RXRα was significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with HR and HX groups,the cells in RA group showed significantly increased cell viability(P<0.05),increased SOD activity(P<0.05),decreased MDA con-tent(P<0.05),increased Nrf2 mRNA and protein expression levels(P<0.01),and significantly increased immunofluo-rescence expression of RXRα(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Hypoxia/reoxygenation can aggravate the oxidative stress re-sponse of rat AECII,and RXR agonist intervention can alleviate HR-induced rat AECII injury by inhibiting oxidative stress.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) emergency management policy texts in China, reveal the characteristics, problems and improvement directions of Chinese medicine emergency management policies in China, and provide references and lessons for improving the level of Chinese medicine emergency management. METHODS Twenty-four TCM emergency management policy texts issued at the central level from 2016 to 2023 were coded and analyzed using Nvivo11 software to construct a three-dimensional analysis framework based on policy tools, stakeholders and policy strength. RESULTS In the policy tools dimension, the environmental type was the most (46.74%), the supply type was the second (31.80%), and the demand type was the least (21.46%); in the stakeholder dimension, there were more healthcare institutions (40.63%) and government departments (31.25%), and fewer healthcare workers (14.84%) and residents (13.28%); in the policy strength dimension, the overall policy strength was poor, and the differences in effectiveness across policy instruments and stakeholders were more significant. The cross-cutting results showed that there was a certain degree of mismatch in policy instruments, stakeholders and policy strength. CONCLUSIONS The use of supply-oriented policy tools is slightly lacking, and the use of policy tools should be optimized in a coordinated manner; the distribution of stakeholders is relatively unbalanced, and synergies among stakeholders should be enhanced; the overall strength of policies is poor, and the top-level design of relevant policies should be improved.
