Objective To study the risk factors related to early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with recurrent cerebral infarction (RCI). Methods Three hundreds and twenty-six RCI patients admitted to our hospital from January 2014 to March 2015 were divided into END group (n = 66) and non-END group (n =260). The clinical and laboratory data were collected, and their cerebrovascular lesions were accessed according to the angiographic findings. Results (1) Single factor analysis showed the level of cholesterol was significantly higher in the END group than that of the non-END group (P < 0.05). The proportion of patients suffering from smoking, arterial occlusions, early onset stroke associated pneumonia (SAP) and hyponatremia was also higher in the END group (all P < 0.05). (2) Logistic regression analysis showed that arterial occlusions (OR = 2.137, 95%CI 1.093~4.181), SAP (OR=2.001, 95%CI 1.023~3.912) and hyponetremia (OR=2.467, 95%CI 1.217~ 5.000) were independent risk factors for END of RCI patients (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Arterial occlusions, SAP and hyponatremia may be used as predictors of the early development of RCI patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of hydrogen sulfide postconditioning on the systolic function of left ventricle during myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR) in rats. Methods Part Ⅰ Adult male SD rats weighing 200-250 g were anesthetized with pentobarbital 40 mg/kg and heparin 250 U/kg. Their hearts were excised and perfused in a Langendorff apparatus with K-H solution saturated with 95% O2-5% CO2 at 37 ℃. Forty isolated rat hearts were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 8 each) after 20 min of equilibration: control group (group C); IR group; sodium hydrosulfide 1,10, 100 μmol/L postconditioning group (group SP1, SP10, SP100 ).In group Cthe hearts were perfused continuously for another 100 min. In group IR, the hearts were reperfused for 60 min after 40 min ischemia induced by 10 ml/kg ST. Thomas solution. In group SP1 , SP10 and SP100 the hearts were perfused with K-H solution containing sodium hydrosulfide 1, 10, 100 μmol/L for 2 min before reperfusion.LVDP and ± dp/dtmax were recorded at the end of equilibration and reperfusion. Part Ⅱ Cardiomyocytes were isolated from the male SD rats (weighing 200-250 g) and then cultured in CO2 incubator for 4 h. Sixty-four dishes of cultured myocytes were randomly divided into 4 groups( n = 16 each): control group (group C), hypoxia/reoxygenation group (group HR), hydrogen sulfide postconditioning group (group SP) and hypoxia postconditioning group (group HP). Group C were cultured continuously for 2 h. Group HR, SP and HP were exposed to 1 h hypoxia (95%N2-5%CO2 ) followed by 1 h reoxygenation. In group SP 10 μmol/L sodium hydrosulfide was added and the myocytes were then incubated for 2 min before reoxygenation. In group HP the cultured myocytes were expased to 3 min reoxygenation followed by 3 min hypoxia for 3 times before the 1 h reoxygenation. Mitochondrial membrane potential and F-actin expression were determined. Results Part Ⅰ Compared with group C, LVDP and ± dp/dtmax were significantly decreased at the end of reperfusion in group IR (P < 0.05), while no significant difference was found in group SP1 , SP10 and SP100(P >0.05). Compared with group IR, LVDP and ± dp/dtmax were significantly increased in group SP ( P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in LVDP and ± dp/dtmax among group SP1, SP10 and SP100(P >0.05). Part H Compared with group C, the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly decreased in group HR and HP, and the expression of F-actin was significantly up-regulated in group HR, SP and HP ( P < 0.05). Compared with group HR, the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly increased and the expression of F-actin up-regulated in group SP and HP ( P < 0.05 ). There were no significant difference in the mitochondrial membrane potential and expression of F-actin between group SP and HP ( P >0.05).Conclusion Hydrogen sulfide postconditioning can improve left ventricular systolic function during IR in rats by stabilizing mitochondrial membrane potential and promoting aggregation of F-actin.
