Objective To observe the clinical effects of breaking blood expelling stasis method of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) combined with edaravone on patients with acute hypertensive intra-cerebral hemorrhage and preliminarily discuss its protection mechanism on this disease. Methods Ninety-two patients with hypertensive intra-cerebral hemorrhage within 72 hours after occurrence admitted to Zengcheng District People's Hosipital of Guangzhou from May 2013 to December 2017 were enrolled, they were divided into conventional therapy group and combined treatment of TCM and western medicine group by random numbers produced by a computer, 46 cases in each group. The conventional therapy group was treated with conventional therapy, and the combined treatment of TCM and western medicine group was treated with conventional therapy, additionally the treatment of Poxue Zhuyu decoction (the ingredients of the decoction: leech 10 g, gradfly 10 g, rhubarb 15 g, cattail pollen 5 g, trichosanthes fruit 10 g, radix notoginseng 5 g, colla plastri testudinis 10 g, grassleaf sweetflag rhizome 10 g, ground beetle 3 g, dried lacquer 3 g, peach seed 10 g) and edaravone for 10 days. The levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in serum were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before and 7 days after treatment in the two groups; and the differences in National Institutes of Health stroke scale score (NIHSS) before and 14 days, 90 days after treatment as well as the changes of brain edema around the hematoma 14 days after treatment were compared between the two groups, and the incidence of adverse reaction was observed. Results After treatment, the levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and intra-cerebral hemorrhage quantities in the two groups were all decreased compared with those before treatment, and the degrees of decrease of TNF-α and cerebral hemorrhage volume in combined treatment of TCM and western medicine group were more significant than those in the conventional treatment group [TNF-α (ng/L): 21.00±6.10 vs. 29.40±11.33, cerebral hemorrhage volume (mL): 5.23±0.60 vs. 8.50±0.64, both P <0.05]. The IL-6 in the two groups were recovered to approximately normal levels after the treatment (ng/L: 13.60±5.36 vs. 15.40±6.13, P > 0.05). With the prolongation of therapeutic time, the scores of NIHSS of the two groups were significantly lowered than those before treatment, and the degree of reduction in the combined TCM and western medicine group on 90 days after treatment was more obvious than that of the conventional treatment group (4.34±0.67 vs. 7.73±0.61, P < 0.05). The volumes of edema around hematomas were increased after treatment in the two groups, but the degree of increase in combined treatment of TCM and western medicine group was slower than that of the conventional group (cm3: 7.57±0.64 vs. 10.16±0.60, P < 0.05). There was no statistical significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions in comparison between the combined treatment of TCM and western medicine group and conventional therapy group [18.2% (8/44) vs. 20.5% (9/44), P > 0.05]. Conclusions Using breaking blood expelling stasis and edaravone for treatment of acute hypertensive intra-cerebral hemorrhage can accelerate the absorption of brain hematoma and improve the neurological function, and its mechanism may be relevant to the inhibition of some inflammatory factors.

Objective To evaluate the clinical effect of dextromethorphan and its effect on daily living of patients with poststroke pseudobulbar affect. Methods Sixty patients with poststroke pseudobulbar affect admitted in our hospital from May 2013 to October 2016 were enrolled. Then they were randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group,with 30 patients in each group.Patients in the control group were treated with fluox-etine therapy and patients in the treatment group were treated with dextromethorphan therapy.The center for neuro-logic study lability scale(CNS-LS)and activity of daily living(Barthel index,BI)before and 30 days after the treat-ments in the two groups had been accessed. Results Thirty days after the treatment,CNS-LS of the treatment group had obvious improvement compared with that before treatment(P < 0.01),but CNS-LS of the control group had no obvious improvement compared with that before treatment(P > 0.05). And significant improvement has been found 30 days after the treatment between the two groups(P<0.01).Furthermore,significant difference was found on BI between these two groups(P<0.05).Conclusions Dextromethorphan is effective in treatment of pa-tients with poststroke pseudobulbar affect and it can improve the activity of daily living of these patients.

OBJECTIVE:To study the mecha nism of Bambuterol hydrochloride in the improvement of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)model rats ,and to find the potential biomarker. METHODS :Totally 30 rats were randomly divided into normal group ,model group and bambuterol hydrochloride group (3.3 mg/kg),with 10 rats in each group ;COPD model was established by lipopolysaccharide (LPS)infusion combined with smoking in model group and bambuterol hydrochloride group. After modeling ,bambuterol hydrochloride group was given relevant medicine intragastrically ,normal group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline intragastrically ,once a day ,for consecutive 45 d. After last medication ,the serum sample and alveolar lavage fluid of rats were collected. The levels of interleukin- 6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in alveolar lavage fluid were detected by ELISA. The serum metabolites were detected by LC-MS and analyzed by metabolomics. Orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA)was used to screen out the differential metabolites. The potential biomarkers were identified based on the related literature ,and the metabolic pathway enrichment analysis was carried out by MetPA analysis platform. RESULTS :Compared with normal group ,the levels of IL- 6 and TNF-α in alveolar lavage fluid of rats were increased significantly in model group (P<0.05). Compared with model group ,the levels of IL- 6 and TNF-α in alveolar lavage fluid of rats were decreased significantly in bambuterol hydrochloride group (P<0.05). Results of metabolomics and OPLS-DA showed that 21 differential metabolites and 12 potential biomarkers were found (including maleylpyruvate , hydroxypyruvate, tartronate semialdehyde,etc.). Bambuterol hydrochloride can significantly reduce the levels of maleylpyruvate ,methylselenocysteine and 5-deoxy-D-glucuronic acid (P<0.05), while increase the levels of hydroxypyruvate , tartronate semialdehyde and. These biomarkers were mainly @163.com concentrated in pentose phosphoric acid pathway ,glyoxyli acid and tricarboxylic acid metabolism pathway ,followed by 开发。E-mail:pn333@163.com inositol phosphoric acid metabolism pathway ,arginine and tyrosine metabolism pathway ,glycine,serine and threonine metabolism pathway. CONCLUSIONS :The mechanism of bambuterol hydrochloride improving COPD may be associated with the decrease of the levels of TNF-α and IL-6,as well as the pathway of amino acid metabolism ,energy metabolism and lipid metabolism.

Objective:
To effectively reduce the concentration of poisons in cleanroom, protect the health of workers, realize the optimization and automatic control of the new return air device. And the influence of initial concentration, air volume, temperature and relative humidity of formaldehyde on the purification effect of the new return air device was explored.
Methods:
The purification effect of the new return air device installed with the activated carbon and the photocatalyst purification net or ordinary activated carbon purification network was tested in a 60 m3 simulated cleanroom. The concentration of formaldehyde was determined by solution absorption-phenol reagent spectrophotometry. Based on the single factor experiment to determine the combination of two purification nets. The effects of air volume, initial formaldehyde concentration, temperature and relative humidity on the purification effect of the new return air device were investigated by orthogonal test. Then, the performance parameters of the return air device to purify formaldehyde were determined.
Results:
The formaldehyde purification efficiency of the two types of purification nets in the new return air device was higher than that of the ordinary activated carbon purification network (
