Objective To investigate the effects of Shenfu injection ( SF,a Chinese herbal medicine preparation made of Codonopsis pilosula and Aconitum carmichaeli) on the cell apoptosis of focal cerebral ischemic-reperfusion injured rats and the expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1). Methods Forty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats used for producing unilateral brain ischemia reperfusion model were randomly divided into three groups:sham operation group ( Sham group),ischemia reperfusion group ( IR group),and SF Injection group (SF group).The model of focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury was induced by transient occlusion of middle cerebral artery (ischemia for 2 h,and reperfusion for 3,6 h respectively).In SF group,SF ( 10 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected duri(n)g reperfusion.Cell apoptosis rate in brain tissue was detected by the technique of Annexin-V-PI double staining and was counted in flow cytometer.Expression of HO-1 in brain was measured by RT-PCR,while the pathological and ultra structure changes of cerebral tissue were also observed.Results Cell apoptosis rate of brain tissue were significantly higher in IR group than that in Sham group (P <0.01 ),while SF group had less significant changes in cell apoptosis rate, HO-1 level of brain tissue than IR group (P < O.01 ).The ultra structure change of brain tissue was less in SF group than that in IR group.Conclusions During early stage of brain IR injury,SF inhibits cellular apoptosis and in turn protects the brain from injury which is attributed to the increase in HO-1 expression induced by SF.

Objective To investigate the effects of naloxone (Na) on pneumocyte apoptosis and expression of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) during ischemia reperfusion injury of lung in rats. Method Forty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats were made models of ischemia reperfusion injury of unilateral lung, and were randomly( random number) divided into three groups: sham operation group (Sh group), ischemia reperfusion group (IR group) and naloxone group (Na group). The hilus of lung was clamped for 45 minutes and the clamp was taken off to build the I/R model. After 3-6 hours reperfusion, naloxone in dose of 1 mg/kg was injected intra-peritoneally in rats of Na group. The rate of cell apoptosis in lung tissue was detected with the way of Annexin-V-PI in flow cy-tometer. The wet to dry weight ratio (W/D) of lung tissue was measured. The expression of HO-1 in lung was measured by using RT-PCR and the ultra-structure change of lung tissue was observed under electron microscope. Results The rate of pneumocyte apoptosis and W/D ratio of lung tissue were significantly higher in IR group than in Sh group (P < 0.01), and the rate of pneumocyte apoptosis and W/D ratio of lung tissue were negatively correlated with the expression of HO-1 mRNA in lung tissue. Compared with IR group, the rate of cell apoptosis and W/D ratio were lower and the expression of HO-1 mRNA was higher in Na group (P < 0.01). The ultra- structure changes of lung tissue were lessened in Na group than in IR group. Conclusions During early period of lung IR injury, HO-1 induced by naloxone can inhibit the cellular apoptosis and protect the lung tissue.

This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the quality of care of diabetes in Shanghai, China. A total of 173 235 patients with type 2 diabetes in 2017 were included in the analysis. Profiles of risk factors and intermediate outcomes were determined. The patients had a mean age of 66.43 ± 8.12 (standard deviation (SD)) years and a mean diabetes duration of 7.95 ± 5.53 (SD) years. The percentage of patients who achieved the target level for HbA1c (< 7.0%) was 48.6%. Patients who achieved the target levels for blood pressure (BP) < 130/80 mmHg and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-c) < 2.6 mmol/L reached 17.5% and 34.0%, respectively. A total of 3.8% achieved all three target levels, and the value increased to 6.8% with an adaptation of the BP target level (< 140/90 mmHg) for those over 65 years. Multivariable analysis identified the factors associated with a great likelihood of achieving all three target levels: male, young age, short diabetes duration, low body mass index, macrovascular complications, no microvascular complications, prescribed with lipid-lowering medication, and no prescription of antihypertensive medication. In conclusion, nearly 50% and one-third of the patients with diabetes met the target levels for HbA1c and LDL-c, respectively, with a low percentage achieving the BP target level. The percentage of patients who achieved all three target levels needs significant improvement.
