Objective:To investigate the effect ofLeech Capsule on stability ofcarotid plaque and expression ofplatelet membrane glycoprotein in patients with cerebral arteriosclerosis.Methods:203 patients with cerebral arteriosclerosis which with unstable carotid plaque were divided into two groups.There were 101 patients in observation group which were treated by conventional therapy and Leech Capsule, and 102 patients in control group which were treated only by conventional therapy.Then comparison analysis ofIMT, plaque area, unstable plaque number and positive rates ofPAC-1 and CD62P were made before and after treatment with two groups.Results:After treatment, the IMT, plaque area, unstable plaque number and positive rates ofPAC-1 and CD62P in observation group were significantly lesser than those in control group.In observation group, all parameters after treatment were significantly lesser than those before treatment, but in control group there were no significant difference in IMT and positive rates ofCD62P between after treatment and before treatment.In addition, there were no obvious adverse reactions after treatment by leech capsule.Conclusion:Leech Capsule was an effective drug for stabilizing carotid plaque and depressing the level ofplatelet activation, and it had few adverse reaction.It was worth further spreading.

Objective:To investigate the effect of early gradual diet on reducing delirium in elderly patients with hip arthroplasty.Methods:From January 2018 to January 2020, 74 cases of hip arthroplasty patients aged over 65 years old who were treated in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were selected as the observation objects. They were randomly divided into experimental group and control group with 37 cases in each group. The experimental group was given early gradual diet on the basis of routine postoperative care, while the control group was given routine postoperative diet on the basis of routine postoperative care. The incidence of postoperative delirium, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), patient satisfaction rate, average hospitalization days and average hospitalization expenses were used to evaluate the effect of early gradual diet on reducing delirium in elderly patients with hip arthroplasty.Results:The incidence of delirium in the experimental group was 2.70% (1/37) and 16.22% (6/37) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 3.945, P<0.05); the hospitalization days of the experimental group were (10.68±5.13) d, (13.62±7.19) d in the control group. The difference of hospitalization days was statistically significant ( t value was 2.877, P<0.01). The incidence of difficulty in falling asleep and the satisfaction rate of the experimental group were 8.11% (3/37) and 94.59% (35/37) respectively, and those in the control group were 29.73% (11/37) and 78.38% (29/37) respectively, and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 value was 5.638, 4.163, P<0.05). Conclusions:Early gradual diet after operation can reduce the incidence of delirium in elderly patients with hip arthroplasty, shorten the average hospitalization days, reduce the incidence of difficulty in falling asleep, improve patients' satisfaction, and help patients to pass through the perioperative period more safely and comfortably.

Objective To evaluate the role of autophagy in cognitive decline caused by sevoflurane anesthesia and the relationship with neurogenesis in aged mice.Methods Forty-five healthy SPF male mice,aged 20-22 months,weighing 25-35 g,were divided into 3 groups (n=15 each) using a random number table method:control group (group C),sevoflurane anesthesia group (group S) and autophagy agonist rapamycin group (group R).Rapamycin 0.2 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected every day for 7 days in group R,while the equal volume of solvent dimethyl sulfoxide was given instead in S and C groups.In group S and group R,3％ sevoflurane was inhaled for 2 h once a day for 3 consecutive days starting from 5th day of administration,while the mixture of air and oxygen was inhaled instead in group C.Five mice in each group were randomly selected after the last anaesthesia and sacrificed,and the hippocampus was removed for determination of the expression of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 Ⅱ (LC3 Ⅱ) and Beclin-1 by Western blot.The other mice were sacrificed after Morris water maze test was performed,and hippocampi were isolated for determination of doublecortin (DCX) positive cells in the dentate gyrus by immunohistochemistry.Results Compared with group C,the escape latency was significantly prolonged,the percentage of time spent in the target quadrant was decreased,the expression of LC3 Ⅱ and Beclin-1 was down-regulated,LC3 Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ ratio was decreased,and DCX positive cell counts were reduced in S and R groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group S,the escape latency was significantly shortened,the percentage of time spent in the target quadrant was increased,the expression of LC3 Ⅱ and Beclin-1 was up-regulated,LC3Ⅱ/LC3 Ⅰ ratio was increased,and DCX positive cell counts were increased in group R (P＜0.05).Conclusion Autophagy is involved in the process of cognitive decline caused by sevoflurane anesthesia,which is related to inhibiting neurogenesis in the hippocampus of aged mice.

Objective:To investigate the application value of transcranial Doppler (TCD) in the prognosis assessment of nerve function in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) after intracranial mechanical thrombectomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted. The clinical data of 43 patients with acute anterior circulation cerebral infarction who received intra-arterial mechanical thrombotomy for recanalization admitted to Taizhou Central Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019 were analyzed. The modified Rankin scale (mRS) score of patients were followed up by telephone at 3 months after surgery to evaluate the prognosis of neurologic outcome. Patients with mRS score 0-2 were enrolled in the good prognosis group, while those with a score of 3-6 were enrolled in the poor prognosis group. The gender, age, past history, underlying diseases, occluded arteries, atherosclerotic stenosis and bridging treatment, time from onset to reperfusion, blood flow dynamics under TCD at 1 day after thrombectomy, and National Institutes of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) scores before and 1, 7, and 14 days after thrombectomy were compared between the two groups. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the prognostic factors of nerve function at 3 months after mechanical thrombectomy in patients with ACI. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the prognostic value for neurological function assessed by TCD.Results:Forty-three patients were enrolled in the final analysis, with 23 patients in the good prognosis group and 20 in the poor prognosis group. The recanalization was successfully achieved in both groups without complications. However, the hemodynamics of intracranial arteries evaluated by TCD 1 day after operation in both groups still showed partial or complete occlusion, and the hemodynamics of patients in the poor prognosis group was worse than that in the good prognosis group (poor blood flow: 40.0% vs. 0%, inadequate blood flow: 30.0% vs. 17.4%, good blood flow: 30.0% vs. 82.6%), and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Before thrombotomy, there was no significant difference in NIHSS score between the two groups. After thrombotomy, the NIHSS score of the two groups gradually decreased with the extension of time, but the NIHSS score at 14 days after operation of the poor prognosis group was still significantly higher than that of the good prognosis group (10.55±2.93 vs. 4.65±1.70, P < 0.01). Univariate analysis showed that compared with the good prognosis group, the proportion of patients with diabetes and arteriosclerosis stenosis in the poor prognosis group were significantly increased (30.0% vs. 4.3%, 45.0% vs. 17.4%, both P < 0.05), and the time from onset to reperfusion was prolonged (minutes: 385.9±96.2 vs. 294.5±95.1, P < 0.01). Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that the therosclerosis stenosis [odds ratio ( OR) = 9.334, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.092-79.775, P = 0.041] and the reperfusion time ( OR = 1.016, 95% CI was 1.006-1.027, P = 0.002) were associated with prognosis of nerve function at 3 months after mechanical thrombectomy in patients with ACI. ROC curve analysis suggested that the evaluation of intracranial hemodynamics by TCD might be able to predict the prognosis of neurological function in patients with ACI after 3 months of intracranial mechanical thrombectomy, the area under ROC curve (AUC) was 0.768 (95% CI was 0.620-0.917), the sensitivity was 65.0%, the specificity was 87.0%, the positive predictive value was 82.6%, and the negative predictive value was 70.0%. Conclusion:The evaluation of intracranial hemodynamics assessed by TCD is helpful in early judging the prognosis of neurological function in patients with ACI after intracranial mechanical thrombectomy.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of Qimai Qinlou prescription in the treatment of elderly community-acquired pneumonia （CAP） （non-severe） with Qi and Yin deficiency and phlegm-heat obstructing lung syndrome and its impact on immune-inflammatory factors. MethodA total of 120 eligible patients were randomly divided into an observation group （60 cases） and a control group （60 cases）. Both groups received intravenous cefoxitin sodium. In addition， the observation group received oral Qimai Qinlou prescription， while the control group received an oral placebo simulating Qimai Qinlou prescription. The treatment course was 14 days. The disappearance time of major clinical symptoms and signs was recorded. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome scores and the Clinical Research Outcome （CAP-CRO） scale scores for pneumonia of the two groups were compared. Chest computed tomography （CT） scans were performed， and peripheral blood levels of procalcitonin （PCT）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， serum amyloid A （SAA）， high-sensitivity C-reactive protein （hs-CRP）， CD4⁺， CD8⁺， and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ were measured. The conversion rate to severe condition during hospitalization， readmission rate within 30 days after discharge， and safety evaluation were recorded. ResultAfter treatment， the observation group showed significantly shorter time of fever， cough， expectoration， and disappearance time of lung moist rales than the control group （P<0.01）. The TCM syndrome scores， CAP-CRO scores in all dimensions， and total scores in both groups were significantly reduced as compared with those before treatment （P<0.01）. After treatment， the observation group had a more significant reduction than the control group （P<0.01）. The levels of PCT， IL-6， SAA， and hs-CRP in both groups were significantly reduced as compared with those before treatment （P<0.01）. After treatment， the observation group showed a more significant reduction than the control group （P<0.01）. There was no statistically significant difference in the changes of CD4⁺， CD8⁺， and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ in the control group before and after treatment. However， in the observation group， CD4⁺ and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ levels significantly increased （P<0.01）， while CD8⁺ level significantly decreased （P<0.01） after treatment. After treatment， CD4⁺ and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ in the observation group significantly increased （P<0.01）， and CD8⁺ significantly decreased as compared with those in the control group （P<0.01）. At 7， 10， and 14 days after treatment， the curative rates in the observation group were 53.33% （32/60）， 85.00% （51/60）， and 91.67% （55/60）， respectively， which were higher than 31.67% （19/60）， 61.67% （37/60）， and 68.33% （41/60） in the control group （χ²=5.763， 8.352， 10.208， P<0.05）. After treatment， the total effective rate of CT scanning in the observation group was 93.33% （56/60）， higher than 80.00% （48/60） in the control group （χ²=4.615， P<0.05）. The conversion rate to severe condition during hospitalization in the observation group was 3.33% （2/60）， lower than 15.00% （9/60） in the control group （χ²=4.904， P<0.05）. The readmission rate within 30 days after discharge in the observation group was 8.33% （5/60）， lower than 23.33% （14/60） in the control group （χ²=5.065， P<0.05）. No serious adverse drug reactions were observed in either group during the treatment period. ConclusionQimai Qinlou prescription can enhance immune function， alleviate inflammatory reactions， significantly relieve clinical symptoms， shorten the duration of the disease， improve the curative rate and CT scanning efficacy， prevent disease progression， reduce the readmission rate in the short term， and is clinically safe for the treatment of elderly patients with non-severe CAP with Qi and Yin deficiency and phlegm-heat obstructing lung syndrome. It is worthy of further research and application.

Objective : To establish a laboratory model of heroin addiction in C57BL /6 mice based on associative learning mechanisms． Methods: The black box and white box were selected as the memory training environment， and three behavioral training paradigms were studied : ① Pavlovian conditional position preference ( CPP) training paradigm，mice were placed in the white box for memory reinforcement training for 30 min after intraperitoneal injection of 0. 1 ml of corresponding concentrations (5. 0，10. 0，20. 0 mg / kg) of heroin at 9 :00 a．m．，and 24 h later 0. 1 ml of 0. 9% NaCl solution was injected intraperitoneally into the black box for training，and after the training，the mice were tested for their memory preference for the black and white boxes (movement time of different boxes) . ② A naloxone conditional position aversion ( CPA) training paradigm was conductedbased on the results of the CPP training paradigm. ③ Behavioral sensitization training paradigm，heroin addiction rating scale was established based on the statistical results of 3 behavioral experiments and the lethality of experimental animal disease mice after drug administration．Three different doses of heroin (5. 0，10. 0，20. 0 mg / kg) were selected to induce heroin addiction，and the most appropriate heroin concentration was selected by the results on the rating scale. Results: In the CPP training paradigm，CPP was observed in all heroin groups (P＜0. 05，P＜0. 001，P＜0. 05) ．In the CPA training paradigm，the CPA induction rate was highest in the 10. 0 mg / kg heroin group compared to the control group (P ＜0. 01 ) ．In the behavioral sensitization training paradigm ，all heroin groups caused behavioral sensitization changes (P＜0. 001) ; but the 5. 0 and 10. 0 mg / kg heroin groups did not cause animal mortality．Overall，the 10. 0 mg / kg heroin group had the highest dose score on the rating scale．It could be used as a concentration to establish a stable experimental animal model of heroin addiction． Conclusion The study was effective in establishing a heroin addiction model in mice，and it was suitable for modeling drug concentration screening，with high animal survival rate and simple and practical．The combined learning mechanism can effectively shorten the model establishment period.
