Objective: To observe the effect of electric stimulation at fastigial nucleus (FN) on neurological deficiency score, endothelinCD*21 (ETCD*21) and nitric oxide (NO) levels and to investigate its neuroprotective effects on patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). Methods: Sixty-eight patients with ACI were randomly divided into two groups: the electric stimulation treatment group (electric stimulation at FN) and conventional treatment group. Forty patients with hypertension were in the control group. The neural deficiency score, concentrations of plasma ETCD*21 and NO of patients in each group were observed. Results : Compared to the conventional treatment group, the improvement of neural function, the decrease of plasma ETCD*21 and NO were more significant in the electric stimulation treatment group before and after the treatment (all P

Objective To investigate the killing effect of hematoporphyrin derivative photedynamic therapy (PDT) on cultured human pancreatic cancer cell,and to explore the mechanism of this effect.Methods Biolitec PDT 630 semi-conductor laser therapeutic apparatus was used as the light source.After pancreatic cancer cell PANC1 was incubated 8 h with different concentrations of Photosan(hematoporphyrin derivative) as photosensitizer (0.5mg/L,1 mg/L,2 mg/L,4 mg/L),the cells were given different doses of 630nm laser irradiation(1 J/cm2' 5 J/cm~2,10 J/cm~2 ).The A492 value was determined in each group with MTT method.Cell apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry after PDT.Results There was no killing effect when no Photosan was administrated;10 J/cm~2 irradiation had killing effect on PANC1 when Photosan was administrated as 1 mg/L(0.140±0.013 vs 0.213±0.008,P＜0.05);5 and 10 J/cm~2 irradiation all had killing effect on PANC1 when Photosan was administrated as 2 mg/L (0.081±0.024 and 0.049±0.013vs 0.211±0.031,P＜0.05 and P＜0.01 );all doses of irradiation had killing effect when Photosan was administrated as 4 mg/L.There was no significant difference between 5 and 10 J/cm~2 irradiation in term of killing effect.Cell apoptosis rates with 0 or 2 or 4 mg/L Photosan and 10 J/cm~2 irradiation were(13.8±1.8) %,(40.9±1.6)%,(62.5±2.0)%,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions Photosensitizer or irradiation alone did not produce PDT effect.With certain dose of photosensitizer and irradiation,the PDT effect increased accordingly.

Objective To compare the effect of pericardial devascularization with that of the modified Sugiura procedure in management of portal hypertension. Methods From 1990 to 2008, 236patients with portal hypertension underwent operations including pericardial devascularization in 147and modified Sugiura in 89 in our hospital. Results There were 12 perioperative deaths (8.2 % ), and 2 rebleedings (2 % ) in the pericardial devascularization group, and 7 perioperative deaths (7.9 % ) and 2 rebleedings(3.4 % ) in the modified Sugiura group. The follow-up rate was 91.9 % in the pericardial devascularization group and 87.8% in the modified Sugiura group respectively, in a period from 6 months to 19 years. The 1-, 3-and 5-year rebleeding rates were 5.7%,15.2% and 25.5% in the pericardial devascularization group and 6.9%, 16.3%, 29.5 % in the modified Sugiura group, respectively. The 1-, 3- and 5-year survival rates were 87.8% ,79.1% and 69.7% in the pericardial devascularization group and 95.8 %,85.0%, 76.9 % in the modified Sugiura group, respectively. Conclusion Modified Sugiura procedure and pericardial devascularization have differences in perioperative mortality as well as rebleeding and survival rates.

A biodegradable modified guar gum microsphere was prepared for the first time by ionic gelation of the guar gum derivative containing quarternary ammonium group with tripolyphosphate at room temperature in the absence of emulsifying agent or organic solvent. Its average particle diameter was about 140 microm and the particle size had a narrow and normal gauss distribution. From the loading experiment of bovine serum album (BSA) with various concentrations, it was found that the encapsulation efficiency is more than 80%. By the investigation of in vitro release from the BSA-loaded microsphere, it was found that the BSA had a continuous release for more than 6 hours and the release percentage was affected by the initial concentration of the BSA and temperature.

Objective To investigate the application and effect of bundle nursing intervention combining with ventilator pipeline disinfection in the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP). Methods A total of 100 cases who had not received bundle nursing intervention combining with ventilator pipeline disinfection in ICU ward,Cangzhou Central Hospital between February 2012 to January 2014 were treated as control group,while another 100 cases who had received bundle nursing intervention combining with ventilator pipeline disinfection in the same ward from February 2014 to January 2016 were treated as observation group. Incidence of VAP,length of mechanical ventilation time and ICU stay of two groups were compared. Results In different models of nursing care,incidence rate of VAP of the observation group and the control group were 9.0% and 24.0%(χ2=3.52,P < 0.05);length of mechanical ventilation time and ICU stay of the observation group were (4.62±2.10) d and (7.30±1.30) d which were shorter than those of the control group (t=2.40,19.30;P < 0.05). Conclusions Bundle nursing intervention combining with ventilator pipeline disinfection could lower the incidence of VAP,shorten the duration of mechanical ventilation time,ICU stay and improve patients' satisfication which is worthy of application in clinic.

Objective To explore and analyze the signals of pneumonia-related adverse events(ADEs)caused by endothelin receptor antagonists(ERAs)and provide reference for clinical safe medication.Methods Based on the the U.S.Food and Drug Administration(FDA)adverse event reporting system(FAERS)database,the data from the first quarter of 2015 to the first quarter of 2023 was extracted,and reporting odds ratio,pro-portional reporting ratio,Bayesian confidence propagation neural network and multi-item gamma poisson shrinker were used for mining.Results 7 279 reports of pneumonia-related ADEs with ERAs as the main suspects were extracted,including 3 705 reports of ambrisentan,1 028 reports of bosentan and 2 546 reports of macitentan.There were 68 pneumonia ADEs related to ERAs,including 21 ambrisentan,25 bosentan and 22 macitentan.According to the criteria for judging the signal of ADEs,there were 14 kinds of ADEs that formed signals,and all the systems involved in system organ classification were infections and infectious diseases.Infectious pneumonia accounted for the highest proportion of adverse reactions(93.61％)and caused the most deaths.Conclusion In the real world,ERAs can lead to pneumonia related ADEs.Female,elderly,and high-dose are important factors in the occurrence of pneumonia-related ADEs,which suggests that medical personnel need to individualized use drugs based on the patient's physiological status and drug characteristics when using ERAs to ensure medication safety.

Objective A comparison of two method of establishing pressure ulcer rat models to determine which is the most suitable for experimental use.Methods 18 male SD rats were randomly divided into control(n=6),model A(n=6)and model B(n=6)groups.In the control group,iodophor treatment was given after hair removal at the simulated modeling site.In model group A,longitudinal compression was performed by simple deep-tissue foreign body implantation.In model group B,transverse compression was performed via the magnet compression method.The times required to complete the process and for each stage of pressure ulcer model establishment in each group were recorded.The general condition of the rats was observed,and the modeling rate,mortality rate,and infection rate were compared.Results By naked eye,we observed that the model A and model B groups gradually developed redness and swelling,ulceration,bleeding,exudation,and necrosis.Comparison of the whole time to produce pressure uler between model A and model B groups:the difference between the two groups was statitically significant(P＜0.05).Comparison of the time to produce pressure injury between Model A and Model B:The difference between the two groups at stage Ⅰ was not statistically significant(P＞0.05);the difference between the two groups at stage Ⅱ was statistically significant(P＜0 05);the difference between the two groups at stage Ⅲ was statistically significant(P＜0 05);the difference between the two groups at stage Ⅳ was statistically significant(P＜0 05).The mental and sports scores of the rats in the control group were significantly different from those in the model A and model B groups(P＜0.05).The general state of rats in the model group A was significantly different from that in the model B group,and coat color was dimer and activity decreased in the model group A.The modelling rate of rats in both model A and model B groups was 100％.The mortality and infection rates of the model group A were higher than those of the model group B,which were 33.34％and 16.70％,respectively.Conclusions Successful preparation of a four-stage model of pressure ulers in both modalities.The two method have both commonalities and distinct characteristics.The magnet compression method required less time,the rats were generally in good condition,and the mortality and infection rates were low;thus it is suitable for short-term intervention research.The simple deep-tissue foreign body implantation method took longer,required rats to have a certain level of tolerance,had high infection and mortality rates,and is more suitable for use for long-term observations of pressure ulcers.
