Objective:To explore the effects of modified Fired Glycyrrhizae Decoction on hemodynamics and levels of myocardial enzymes in coronary arrhythmia (CA) after bifurcation lesion (BCL) surgery.Methods:According to simple random method, 100 patients with CA after BCL surgery in the hospital who met the inclusion criteria were divided into two groups between May 2019 and May 2021, 50 in each group. The control group was treated with intravenous drip of amiodarone and routine treatment, while the observation group was treated with modified Fired Glycyrrhizae Decoction on basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. Before and after treatment, TCM syndromes were scored. The quality of life was assessed by World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale (WHOOLQ-100). The plasma or serum specific viscosity, fibrinogen and ESR were detected by non-invasive hemodynamic detector. The levels of cardiac troponin (cTnT), creatine kinase (CK) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were detected by ELISA. The disappearance time of symptoms was observed. The adverse reactions were recorded. And the clinical responsive effect was evaluated.Results:The difference in total response rate between observation group and control group was not statistically significant [92.0% (46/50) vs. 90.0% (45/50); χ2=0.12, P=0.727]. After treatment, scores of fluster and shortness of breath, panic and irritability, and mental fatigue in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=7.38, 9.88, 4.87, P<0.01), and scores of physical function, independence and social relations were significantly higher than those in the control group ( t=8.69, 6.32, 5.76, P<0.01). After treatment, levels of plasma specific viscosity, fibrinogen and ESR in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=13.59, 8.30, 8.80, P<0.01). After treatment, levels of serum cTnT [(33.45±3.44) mg/L vs. ( 39.71±4.02) mg/L, t=8.37], CK [(70.49±7.32) U/L vs. (82.15±8.41) U/L, t=7.40] and BNP [(223.41±20.36) ng/L vs. (244.58±20.74) ng/L, t=5.15] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). The disappearance time of palpitation, chest tightness and dizziness in the observation group was significantly earlier than those in the control group ( t=10.44, 11.91, 5.75, P<0.01). During treatment, differences in incidence of adverse reactions between observation group and control group was statistically significant [4.0% (2/50) vs. 32.0% (16/50); χ2=4.00, P=0.046]. Conclusion:The modified Fired Glycyrrhizae Decoction combined with routine western medicine can improve clinical symptoms, hemodynamics and levels of myocardial enzymes in CA patients after BCL surgery, and improve the clinical curative effect.

BACKGROUND:Grape seed extract has been shown to be effective in inhibiting the growth of androgen-dependent tumors(e.g.,breast cancer),and thus grape seed extract could theoretically inhibit epiphyseal closure induced by estrogen in late adolescence. OBJECTIVE:To screen the effects of grape seed extract on apoptosis of growth plate chondrocytes and epiphyseal closure in rats. METHODS:(1)In vitro experiment:Growth plate chondrocytes from rat large tibia and femur at logarithmic growth stage were obtained and cultured in groups:normal control group,model control group(adding 17β-estradiol to induce apoptosis),positive control group(adding letrozole and 17β-estradiol),grape seed extract group(adding 17β-estradiol and 10 μg/mL grape seed extract),Caspase-9 inhibitor group(adding 17β-estradiol and Caspase-9 inhibitor),Caspase-9 agonist group(adding 17β-estradiol and Caspase-9 agonist).Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry after 48 hours of culture.(2)In vivo experiment:Thirty 3-month-old Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into model control group,positive control group and low-,medium-and high-dose groups,with five rats in each group.All rats were injected subcutaneously with 17β-estradiol(3 times per week)to establish epiphyseal closure models,followed by intragastric administration of letrozole in positive control group and 0.05,0.2 and 0.8 g/kg grape seed extract in low-,medium-and high-dose groups,respectively,once a day until over 2/3 of the epiphyseal plate in the model control group was closed.The length of the tibia was then observed.Another 18 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into model control group,positive control group,and medium-dose group,with 6 rats in each group,treated as above for 1.5 continuous months.The expression of Caspase-9 protein in rat growth plate cartilage was detected by western blot. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In vitro experiment:17β-estradiol could induce apoptosis in growth plate chondrocytes,and letrozole,grape seed extract,and caspase-9 inhibitors could all inhibit apoptosis in growth plate chondrocytes.(2)In vivo experiment:When more than 2/3 of the epiphyseal plate in the model control group was closed,the number of rats with epiphysis closure in the positive control and medium-dose groups was less than that in the model control group(P＜0.05),and the tibial length was longer than that in the model control group(P＜0.05),and the Caspase-9 protein expression in the tibial growth plate was lower than that in the model control group(P＜0.05).To conclude,the appropriate dose of grape seed extract can effectively inhibit the apoptosis of growth plate chondrocytes and delay epiphyseal closure,which has the potential to promote bone growth.

Objective:To investigate the expression of microRNA125a in infiltrating macrophages during myocardial ischemia reperfusion, and to analyze the effect of microRNA125a on the polarization of infiltrating macrophages during myocardial ischemia reperfusion.Methods:The rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion was established. Myocardial injury tissues were taken, infiltrated macrophages were isolated, and RNA was extracted. qRT-PCR was used to detect M1 and M2 markers in macrophages and evaluate the types of infiltrated macrophages. Subsequently the expression level of microRNA125a in infiltrating macrophages was detected. Finally, the effect of microRNA125a on macrophage polarization was further elucidated.Results:Macrophages in myocardium of ischemia reperfusion showed high expression of M1 markers (TNF-alpha and IL-8), presenting M1 macrophages. At the same time, microRNA125a was also highly expressed in this macrophage. Knockdown or overexpression of microRNA125a in macrophages in vitro can affect the macrophages polarization.Conclusions:Macrophages in myocardial ischemia reperfusion are M1 type, and microRNA125a is highly expressed in this macrophage and promotes its migration to M1 type.

We report a critically ill pregnant woman in the third trimester with severe pneumonia due to COVID-19 who presented to Xiaolan People's Hospital of Zhongshan in February 2020. The 32-year-old patient was admitted at 35 +2 gestational weeks with a 4-day history of a sore throat and a fever for three hours. The patient had been to Xiaogan City, Hubei Province, and the symptoms occurred during a period of self-isolation after back home. The condition of the patient deteriorated rapidly, with left-sided chest and back pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, progressing to respiratory failure and septic shock 7 hours after her admission. In view of her critical condition and a history of two previous cesarean sections, an emergency cesarean section was performed. Blood gas analysis of the mother before the operation suggested respiratory failure, respiratory acidosis, and metabolic acidosis. During the operation, a baby boy was born. The Apgar score of the boy, birth weight of 2 700 g, was one at 1, 5 and 10 minutes despite the resuscitation efforts. The neonate died after withdrawing treatment. The patient was treated with tracheal intubation ventilator and other supportive treatments after the operation. The result of the new coronavirus nucleic acid test, taken on admission, but which was reported after delivery, was positive. The patient was transferred to the designated hospital for further treatment and was recovering with the withdrawal of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and ventilation support at 26 and 36 days after surgery, respectively.
