Objective To evaluate the clinical effects of intra arterial thrombolytic therapy for acute ischemic cerebral infarction and analize the factors influencing the clinical prognosis. Methods 32 patients were treated with intra arterial thrombolysis using urokinase(median dose, 65?10 4 U) within 2~20 hours, after the onset. The patient's condition was assessed by neurologists using National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) score right at the admission. Clinical outcome was assessed after 3 months and graded as good for Modified Rankin Scale(MRS) scores of 0 to 3 and poor for MRS scores of 4 or 5 and death. Results Follow up cerebral angiography of 14 cases treated within 6 hours after onset showed complete/partial recanalization in 13 cases. Other 18 patients whose treatment started beyond 6 hours after onset outcame with complete/partial in 7. 20(62.5%) of the 32 patients had good outcome, 12(37.5%) had poor outcome and two patients(9.4%) died. Cerebral hemorrhage occurred in 2 of the 32 patients. Good outcome was associated with an initial NIHSS score of

Objective To further investigate the effect of sinomenine (SIN) on TNF-α-induced VCAM-1 expression in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Methods HUVECs were isolated from freshly collected umbilical cords. Positive control samples were stimulated with TNF-α, but free of SIN. Negative control samples were treated in the same way, but without TNF-α and SIN. Experimental samples were co-cultured with TNF-α and SIN at various concentrations (0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 mol/L), or TNF-α and dexamethasone (Dex) at concentration of 1.0×10-6 mol/L, or TNF-α with Dex (at concentration of 1.0×10-6mol/L) and SIN at different concentrations (0,25, 0.5, and 1.0 mmol/L) (co-treated groups). VCAM-1 expression was detected by flow cytometry (FCM). Results SIN inhibited expression of VCAM-1 in TNF-α-induced HUVECs, the best effect was shown in the 1.0 mmol/L SIN treated group. VCAM-1 decreased more markedly in the co-treated groups. Conclusion SIN inhibits TNF-α-induced VCAM-1 expression on HUVECs in vitro, and SIN maybe synergistic with Dex in inhibiting TNF-α-induced VCAM-1 expression on HUVECs in vitro.

Objective To observe the effect of infliximab combination therapy on the expression of CD147 on the peripheral CD14+ monocytes of active rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. Methods Thirty active RA patients who were refractory to MTX treatment were randomized into three groups (group A, B, C) with the proportion of 3:1:1. Group A and B received four or three infusions of infliximab (3 mg/kg), group C received four infusions of placebo. All three groups were added to a stable background of MTX. The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of CD147 expression on the peripheral CD14+ monocytes of RA patients and normal healthy controls were detected by flow cytometry analysis. Clinical and laboratory parameters were assessed before each infusion. One-way ANOVA, Kruskal-Wallis the MFI of CD147 expression at week 18 (P<0.05). Marked differences were observed between the infliximab + MTX group and the placebo + MTX group on the change of the MFI of CD147 expression from baseline to week 18 (P<0.05).Conclusion CD147 expression on the peripheral CD14+ monocytes of active RA patients is increased, and combination therapy of infliximab and MTX can inhibit the expression.

Objective:To study the functional connectivity (FC) and metabolic effective connectivity (MEC) patterns of the default mode network (DMN) in healthy male adults based on a novel hybrid PET/MR system.Methods:Fifteen healthy male adults with median age of 29 years were recruited locally in Xi′an from January to May 2019. All subjects went through PET/MR scan to get the whole brain 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET, resting-state functional MRI (fMRI) and magnetization prepared rapid gradient echo (MPRAGE) T 1 weighted imaging data. CONN18b and statistical parametric mapping (SPM) 12 softwares were used to analyze data. The voxel-wise FC and FDG metabolic data were extracted within 4 sub-networks of DMN, which included medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC), posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) and bilateral lateral parietal (LP). The FC and MEC between 4 sub-networks were calculated based on merged resting-state fMRI and metabolic data, and analyzed by one-sample t test separately, with Bonferroni correction. Results:FC pathways were all significant within 4 sub-networks of DMN ( t values: 6.00-7.71, all P<0.008, Bonferroni corrected). Meanwhile, there were significant bi-directional MEC between MPFC and PCC(MPFC to PCC: t=10.03; PCC to MPFC: t=3.73, both P<0.004, Bonferroni corrected), as well as between bilateral LP (LP_L to LP_R: t=5.28; LP_R to LP_L: t=4.76, both P<0.004, Bonferroni corrected). There were significant uni-directional MEC from both MPFC and PCC to bilateral LP ( t values: 3.44-6.93, all P<0.004, Bonferroni corrected). Conclusions:Special FC and MEC patterns exist within DMN. The closely interrelated MPFC and PCC play more important roles in DMN, and they may mediate LP jointly. The novel integrated PET/MR system will bring new perspective on the organization of brain networks, which may deepen the comprehensive understanding of DMN.
