Objective:To observe the effects of Naoxuekang oral liquid combined with nimodipine on hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage and the influence on serum Tau protein,IGF-1 and hs-CRP in the patients. Methods:Totally 98 patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage were randomly divided into two groups(n = 49). The patients in the control group were given nimodipine,while those in the observation group were given nimodipine and Naoxuekang oral liquid at the same time,and all the patients received 4-week treatment. The serum levels of Tau protein,IGF-1 and hs-CRP before and after the treatment were detected,and the national institutes of health stroke scale(NIHSS)score,hematoma volume and curative effect and adverse drug reaction were recorded as well. Results:Before the treatment,there was no significant differences in Tau protein,hs-CRP, IGF-1,NIHSS score and hematoma volume between the two groups(P > 0. 05). After the treatment,the levels of Tau protein and hs-CRP,NIHSS score and hematoma volume in both groups were decreased,and those in the observation group were lower than those in the control group;the IGF-1 level in both groups was increased,and that in the observation group was higher than that in the control group;and all the differences had statistical significance(P < 0. 05). There was no significant difference in the complication rate between the groups( P > 0. 05),while the effective rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group(89. 8% vs 73. 5% ,P < 0. 05). Conclusion:Naoxuekang oral liquid combined with nimodipine can significantly reduce the serum levels of Tau protein and hs-CRP,and increase the serum level of IGF-1,and improve the symptoms of patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage,which is beneficial to the rehabilitation of patients.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of dual-energy CT virtual non-contrast (VNC) technology for osteoporosis(OP). Methods Dual-energy CT images of 50 patients with lumbar traumas were collected prospectively.Patients who suffer from vertebral bodies fractures between lumbar 1 to 4, have internal metal fixations or underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty, or presented tumors or compromised bone metabolism induced by diseases or medications were excluded.The scanning range was from the upper edge of the 12th thoracic vertebral body to the lower edge of the first sacral vertebral body. The voltages of tubes A and B were 90 kV and Sn 150 kV,and the reference tubes currents were 220 mAs and 138 mAs. Image reconstruction was performed using Advanced Modeled Iterative Reconstruction (ADMIRE)with iterative strength of 3 and convolution kernel of Qr 40.The default parameters of the virtual non-contrast software were corrected by the standard recommended by the Bone Marrow software of the post-processing platform Syngo.via,and the CT value of calcium(contrast media CM),the CT value of mixed energy images(regular CT value,rCT),the calcium density(CaD)and the fat fraction(Fat)were measured. The bone mineral density (BMD) and T score of each lumbar vertebra from lumbar 1 to lumbar 4 were measured by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry(DXA).With T score less than or equal to the 2.5 standard deviation as the gold standard for the diagnosis of OP,correlations between CT measurements and vertebral BMDs were analyzed using Pearson correlation analysis and linear regression and the diagnostic values of different CT measurements for OP were compared using receiver operating characteristic curve. Results Each of the vertebral bodies was analyzed as a single unit.Fifty of them were osteoporotic and the rest 116 were non-osteoporotic.Except for Fat,the CT measurement parameters of the osteoporotic vertebral bodies were lower than those of the ones without osteoporosis, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.01).CM,rCT and CaD were significantly correlated with BMD(r were 0.75,0.65,0.71,all P<0.01)and there was a linear relationship(F were 209.91,120.24,167.69,all P<0.01).Meanwhile,CM,rCT,CaD and T score were also significantly correlated (r were 0.74, 0.65, 0.70, all P<0.01) with a linear relationship (F were 195.04,120.29,156.37,all P<0.01).CM,rCT and CaD had relatively high concordance rates against the OP diagnosis gold standard (respectively 81.9%, 62.2% and 81.9%). CM and CaD had higher concordance rates than rCT,the difference being statistically significant(P<0.01),and by the CM less than 239.5 HU or CaD less than 10.9 mg/cm3standard, their sensitivities of diagnosing osteoporosis were respectively 86.0% and 84.0%,while the specificities,80.2% and 81.0%.After superimposing CM and CaD, the results did not improve the diagnosis efficiency of OP (pre-superposition diagnostic performance better than post-superposition (P<0.05). Conclusion The VNC technology on DECT can do both vertebral fractures diagnosis and osteoporosis assessment at the same time, thus optimizing the clinical examination process.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors for recompensation in patients with first-time decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis. Methods A total of 438 patients with first-time decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis who attended The Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from September 1, 2011 to December 31, 2019 were enrolled, and all patients received comprehensive treatment including antiviral therapy. According to the outcome at the end of follow-up, the patients were divided into recompensation group and persistent decompensation group, and the independent influencing factors for recompensation were analyzed. Long-term survival rate was compared between the patients with different states of compensation. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data. A multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression model analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for recompensation. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves, and the log-rank test was used for comparison. Results Among the 438 patients with decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis, 199 (45.4%) achieved recompensation after antiviral therapy. There were significant differences between the recompensation group and the persistent decompensation group in sustained virologic response (SVR) ( χ 2 =72.093, P < 0.001), single or multiple complications ( χ 2 =9.834, P =0.002), presence or absence of gastrointestinal bleeding ( χ 2 =6.346, P =0.012), serum creatinine (SCr) ( Z =-1.035, P =0.011), blood sodium concentration ( Z =-1.606, P =0.019), hemoglobin ( Z =1.455, P =0.006), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level ( Z =-2.194, P < 0.001). Baseline ALT level (odds ratio [ OR ]=1.002, 95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 1.000-1.003, P =0.009), SVR ( OR =5.760, 95% CI : 3.634-9.129, P < 0.001), and SCr ( OR =0.990, 95% CI : 0.981-1.000, P =0.047) were independent influencing factors for recompensation. The recompensation group had a significantly higher 5-year survival rate than the persistent decompensation group (87.9% vs 72.0%, χ 2 =9.886, P =0.025). Conclusion After comprehensive treatment, including antiviral therapy, approximately 45.4% of patients can achieve recompensation.Patients with elevated baseline ALT and achieved SVR were more likely to achieve recompensation, patients with elevated baseline serum creatinine had difficulty achieving recompensation, and patients with recompensation had a better long-term prognosis than patients with persistent decompensation.
