Hypertension is the most important risk factor for ischemic stroke and other cardiocerebrovascular diseases.However,the mean blood pressure can not completely explain the target organ damage caused by hypertension and the benefits of antihypertensive treatment.A series of studies have demonstrated that blood pressure variability (BPV) is the risk factor for ischemic stroke independent of the mean blood pressure,and there was also a significant correlation between BPV and ischemic stroke.In recent years,the research of BPV has gradually become a hot spot in the field of prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke.However,the specific relevance between BPV and ischemic stroke is not entirely clear.This article briefly reviews the relationship between BPV and ischemic stroke.

Objective To observe the curative effects of Ginkgo dipyridolum injection in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction and its influence on blood rheology and fibrinogen content.Methods 96 patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly divided into two groups.39 patients in Ginkgo dipyridolum group were treated with 20 ml Ginkgo dipyridolum injection plus 500 ml saline intravenously,once a day.57 patients in control group were treated with Xuesaitong injection 10 ml plus 500 ml saline intravenously,once a day.All treatment lasted for 14 days.The score of neurological deficit was evaluated to assess the clinical efficiency,the changes of indexes of blood rheology,fibrinogen content and skull CT in the two groups were observed before and after treatment.Results Total effective rate(94.9%)in the Ginkgo dipyridolum group was signifcantly higher than that in the control group(78.9%)(P

Objective To summarize the nursing experience of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients with circumferential mixed hemorrhoid intercurrent infection, explore the nursing methods of severe circumferential mixed hemorrhoid before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Methods The detailed nurse plan and carefully observation and assess of lesion were performed daily. Iodophor water at the concentration of 0.5‰ was used for anal bath and 2% iodine ointment was used to smear perianal to prevent of infection. And gauzes soaked iodophor were used to cover the lesions, and Chinese traditional herb for anal bath and ultraviolet exposure to control infection. Additionally, the necessary psychological support was given to overcome the fear. Results After the careful nursing, the patient passed through the agranulocytosis period and achieved the success of transplantation. Conclusions This case suggests that the methods in prophylaxis of patients with circumferential mixed hemorrhoids is effectious.

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells under certain conditions can differentiate into nerve cells. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation can rebuild nervous system function and improve functional disorders in patients. Glycosides of cistanche also have a protective effect against nerve cellinjury. Their combination has been less reported. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effectiveness of Cistanche deserticola and bone marrow mesenchymal stem celltransplantation on spinal cord injury in rats. METHODS:Fifty adult Wistar rats with spinal cord injury were randomly divided into four group:a Cistanche deserticola group (intragastric administration of 20 mL/kg Cistanche deserticola concentrated solution per day), a celltransplantation group (10μL of 1×108/L bone marrow mesenchymal stem cellsuspension), a combination group (10μL of 1×108/L bone marrow mesenchymal stem cellsuspension+intragastric administration of 20 mL/kg Cistanche deserticola concentrated solution per day) and a control group (intragastric administration of 20 mL/kg normal saline per day). The intragastric administration lasted for 30 days in each group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 30 days of treatment, the expression of Nestin was significantly higher in the combination group than the other groups. After 12 weeks, Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan scores was significantly higher in the combination group than the other groups (P<0.05);somatosensory and motor evoked potential latencies were also improve significantly in the combination group compared with the other groups (P<0.05). These findings indicate that oral administration of Cistanche deserticola combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can significantly improve the motor and neurophysiological function of spinal cord injury rats. Cistanche deserticola can improve the survival of transplanted bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in rats with spinal cord injury.

Objective To investigate and analyze the expression of α-SMA and PCNA in abdominal aorta and renal artery in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS)combined with hypertension rats. Methods 36 SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group and model group. The model group was subjected to intermittent hypoxia condition for 8h everyday. Rat tail artery pressure was monitored every week and all subjects were sacrificed at 12th week. The level of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10 and hs-CRP expression in serum were measured by ELISA method. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed on α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Results Compared with control group,model rats blood pressure increased significantly (P < 0.01) when exposed for 4 weeks under intermittent hypoxia condition,and reached the peak value of 186mmHg at 12 weeks. The level of TNF-α, IL-6 , IL-10 and hs-CRP in serum were higher than in control group (P < 0.01). Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression of α-SMA in abdominal aorta decreased more significantly than control group (P < 0.05),while there was a stronger positive expression of PCNA in model group than those in control (P < 0.05). In addition,compared with control rats, model rats showed a higher expression of α-SMA and PCNA significantly in renal artery(P < 0.05). Conclusion The intermittent hypoxia condition could result in higher blood pressure,while the different expression of α-SMA and PCNA illustrate that high pressure show different reconstruction performance in different vascular,underlying different molecular mechanism.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration (EBUS-TBNA) and conventional-transbronchial needle aspiration (C-TBNA) in mediastinal and lung hilar lesions. Method 301 cases of lung hilar and mediastinal lesions were selected from 2010 to 2016. Among them, 183 cases underwent TBNA, and the other 118 cases received EBUS-TBNA technology. During the research, the associations of diagnostic positive rate and complications were analyzed in order to explore the advantage and the value of EBUS-TBNA. Results The positive rates of EBUS-TBNA in central groups (2R, 4L, 4R, 7) were higher than in the peripheral groups (10R, 10L, 11R, 11L) (P < 0.05). When studying the lymph node group 2R, 4R and 7R, the positive rate of EBUS-TBNA is much more significant than conventional TBNA (P < 0.05); When biopsying at the lymph node group R4 and group 7, one needle positive rate of EBUS-TBNA were much more superior than TBNA (P < 0.05), the three needles cumulative positive rate of EBUS-TBNA almost reach the total positive rate(P > 0.05), an approving effect of puncture can be acquired; The accuracy and sensitivity of EBUS-TBNA in the diagnosis of lung hilar and mediastinal lesions were much better than conventional TBNA (P < 0.05), especially the diagnostic positive rate of EBUS-TBNA in benign diseases was higher (P < 0.05); The complications rates in both two technologies were not significantly different (P > 0.05), there were no severe complications during the operations in all cases. Conclusion EBUS-TBNA is useful in diagnosis of mediastinal and hilar lesions of unknown reason, and significant in diagnosis of bronchial and extrabronchial diseases. It is an efficiency and safe operation while further application studies are needed.
