Objective To systematically evaluate the relationship between stroke location and post-stroke depression (PSD) in first-ever stroke patients.Methods The studies on the relationship between stroke location and PSD published from January 1980 to March 2016 were retrieved from databases,including Chinese science and technology journal full-text database (VIP),China journal full-text database (CNKI),Wanfan database,PubMed,ISI Web of Science,Ovid database and Elsevier Science Direct.RevMan5.3 software was adopted for data consolidation and analysis.Results A total of 14 studies,including 1 952 cases of patients were included.The meta analysis indicated that no direct relationship was found between stroke location and PSD in first-ever stroke patients [random effects model,95 ％CI(0.89,1.43),P＜0.01].The results of subgroup analysis indicated that the PSD was associated with the right hemisphere lesion when the Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) was adopted for assessment [fixed effects model,95 ％ CI(1.21,1.76),P＜0.01],while the relationships were not found in the subgroup analysis of time course after stroke and the aphasia occurrence.Conclusion Stroke location may be not directly associated with PSD,further studies are needed to ascertain the relationship between stroke location and PSD.

ObjectiveTo investigate the inhibitory effects of indomethacin(IN) on proliferation and DNA synthesis of cultured human fetal retinal pigment epithelium(hRPE) cells in vitro.MethodsPrimary culture and subculture of hRPE cells were established in vitro first.Cultured hRPE cells were treated by various concentrations 50,100,200,400,600 μ mol/L(final concentration)of IN for 24h.After 24h,the amount of DNA in RPE cells was determined by the absorbance at 280nm of Nucleic Acid δ Protein Analysis.Cells proliferation of RPE were measured with methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium(MTT) assay method by adding 100,200,400,600,800,1000μ mol/L(final concentration) of IN for 12h.ResultsAfter added various concentrations of IN,the DNA concentrations were ( 101.1712± 15.5124),( 88.6400± 13.5845),( 72.3651± 7.7969),( 59.9089± 10.7229),( 51.2236± 8.7757)μg/ml respectively,P values were 0.000,0.000,0.000,0.000,0.000(q test) as compared to that ( 213.7351± 83.1572)μg/ml in 0μg/L IN.The A values added 100,200,400,600,800,1000μmol/L of IN were ( 0.2367± 0.0546),( 0.1687± 0.0695),( 0.0819± 0.03461),( 0.0656± 0.01759),( 0.0554± 0.02865),( 0.0508± 0.02775)respectively,P values were 0 .158,0.000,0.000,0.000,0.000,0.000(q test) as compared to ( 0.2674± 0. 04302) of A value of 0ug/L IN.ConclusionThe data suggested that IN can inhibit DNA synthesis and proliferation of hRPE cells in vitro in a dose dependent manner.

Simvastatin is a hypolipidemic drug that inhibits hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMGCoA) reductase to control elevated cholesterol,or hypercholesterolemia.Previous studies have shown that simvastatin may attenuate inflammation in ischemia-reperfusion injury and sepsis.Herein,we hypothesized that simvastatin may prevent rats from lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced septic shock.In our study,rats were divided into a saline group,an LPS group and an LPS plus simvastatin group.Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were pretreated with simvastatin (1 mg/kg) for 30 min before the addition of LPS (8 mg/kg),with variations in left ventricular pressure recorded throughout.Ninety min after LPS injection,whole blood was collected from the inferior vena cava,and neutrophils were separated from the whole blood using separating medium.The neutrophils were then lysed for Western blotting to detect the levels of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1).In addition,mesentery microcirculations of inlet diameter,outlet diameter and blood flow rate were measured in all three groups.The results indicated that simvastatin significantly promoted heart systolic function and increased the level ofuPA while simultaneously inhibited the expression of PAI-1 as compared with LPS group.Moreover,simvastatin reversed the LPS-induced inhibition of mesentery microcirculation.Taken together,it was suggested that simvastatin can effectively protect the rats from LPS-induced septic shock.

Objective Konno-Rastan procedure is one option to cope with complex multilevel left ventricular outflow tract obstruction (LVOTO),which continues to pose a serious challenge to cardiac surgeons.The aim of this study is to retrospectively analyse indications for Konno-Rastan procedure,and to review the safeguards and pitfalls.Methods Between January 1996 and August 2012,totally 13 children with multilevel LVOTO underwent Konno-Rastan procedure.There were 8 boys and 5 girls.Age at surgeries ranged from 5 to 13 years,and weight from 12 to 51 kg with median of 21 kg.The pathology of this cohort includes:8 cases of congenital aortic valvular stenosis,3 cases of congenital aortic valvular stenosis combined with supravalvular stenosis,1 case of congenital aortic stenosis combined with VSD,coarctation and RVOT obstruction,1 case of aortic stenosis s/p percutaneous balloon aortic valvuloplasty.All patients have secondary diffuse tunnel LVOTO.Diameter of aortic ring ranges from 12.0 to 16.4 mm,and pressure gradient across the stenotic region ranges from 90-151 mm Hg.8 cases were implanted with St.Jude AG19 while 5 cases implanted with St.Jude AG17.Results All 13 cases survived.The 4th patient was implanted permanent epicardial pacemaker for transient Ⅲ AVB.The 4th and 5th patients were found residual ventricular septal repture at the nadir of ventricular incision,one underwent redo procedure while another is being followed up.All cases take cumadine to sustain INR at 1.8-2.5.No death emerges during follow-up period.The motality is 0％,the incidence rate of B is 7.7％,residual VSD 15.4％ and endocarditis 7.7％.Conclusion Konno-Rastan procedure is a promising techi.to relieve LVOTO.However,this complex procedure may lead to several fetal complications.Success of the surgery demands perfect operations.

As the main active compound of Stephania tetrandra S. Moore, tetrandrine (TET) has been used to treat silicosis for nearly 50 years. TET has clear therapeutic effect on pulmonary fibrosis and lung cancer. A recent study suggests that TET may inhibit the replication of SARS-CoV-2 by blocking the two-pore channel 2 (TPC2), revealing its potential as a natural medicine to treat COVID-19. To explore the material basis of TET targeting lung efficacy and its potential toxicity, available literatures related to the pharmacological activity on pulmonary, dosage, toxicity and pharmacokinetics of TET are systemically reviewed. The prospect and current problems of TET to be a therapeutic agent for COVID-19 are further investigated on this basis.

0.5ug/ml in 34 patients(79.1%).Postoperative survival rate and recover of the work ability in group T were significantly higher than those in group C.Conclusions EPTT before RT for the type I diabetes patients with renal disorder can improve the results of RT.

Percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI) has become one of the most important therapeutic methods for atherosclerotic heart disease(AHD),but the following complications such as stent thrombosis and restenosis af- fected its long-term efficacy.Platelet activation was a key component of thrombosis of during perioperative period PCI.As one of the most effective antiplatelet drugs,clo- pidogrel has been established its important role in preven- ting thrombosis during perioperative period of PCI.After several large-scale clinical trials in recent years.
