Influenza is a major threat to millions of people worldwide. Vaccines and antiviral agents are two main options available to reduce the impact of the influenza virus, while anti-influenza agents are the most effective means to prevent the transmission of the highly contagious virus and to treat the epidemics of disease. At present, four anti-influenza agents have been approved by the FDA for the treatment of influenza, including two M2 protein ion channel inhibitors-amantadine and rimantadine and two neuraminidase inhibitors-zanamivir and oseltamivir. Arbidol hydrochloride, launched in Russia, is a potent inhibitor of influenza virus, too. Neuraminidase inhibitors could be classified generally by structure into six different kinds: sialic acid derivatives, benzoic acid derivatives, cyclohexene derivatives, cyclopentane derivatives, pyrrolidine derivatives and natural products. In this paper, recent progress in the research of the action mechanisms and structure-activity relationships of these anti-influenza virus agents were reviewed.

Objective To observe the effects of resveratrol on blood pressure and cardiac function in the rats with vascular calcification induced by vitamin D3 plus nicotine.Methods 32 male SD rats were randomly divided into the following groups for treatment:Control (Con), calcified (Cal), Cal+Res low dose [L] and Cal+Res high dose [H] groups.Blood pressure, cardiac function, alkaline phosphatase ( ALP ) activity in serum or aorta were detected and HE staining was used for pathological examination at 6 weeks after treatment.Results Compared with the Con group, LVW/BW, heart rate, systolic aortic pressure, pulse pressure, mean blood pressure, left ventricular systolic pressure and ALP activity in serum or aorta of rats in the Cal group were increased by 27.3%, 8.8%, 22.8%, 47.5%, 13.6%, 19.0%, 280%and 265%( P<0.05 or P<0.01) , respectively.Compared with the Cal group, pulse pressure and ALP activity in serum or aorta of rats in the Cal+Res [L] group were decreased by 8.5%, 34.5%and 29.5%(P<0.05 or P<0.01), respectively, and LVW/BW, systolic aortic pressure, pulse pressure, mean blood pressure, left ventricular systolic pressure and ALP activity in serum or aorta of rats in the Cal +Res [ H] group were decreased by 14.2%, 13.6%, 23.7%,10.0%, 9.0%, 53.1%and 45.9%(P<0.05 or P<0.01), respectively.Compared with the Cal+Res [L] group, systolic aortic pressure, pulse pressure, left ventricular systolic pressure and ALP activity in serum or aorta of rats in the Cal+Res [H] group were decreased by 8.3%, 16.7%, 5.8%, 28.4% and 23.2% (P<0.05 or P<0.01), respectively.Compared with the aorta in the Con group, pathological examination revealed thickened vessel walls and disordered elastic fibers in the calcified aortas.However, the thickness of aortic wall in the Cal+Res [ L] and Cal+Res [ H] groups was reduced and elastic fibers were regularly arranged.Conclusion Resveratrol can effectively reduce the blood pressure and improve the cardiac function in rats with vascular calcification.

Objective:To observe the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy on tendon adhesion in late period after hand tendon repair. Methods:From July, 2017 to December, 2018, 40 patients with tendon adhesion after hand tendon repair more than three months were collected. They were randomly divided into control group (n = 20) and experimental group (n = 20). Two groups received routine therapy, and the experimental group added extracorporeal shock wave therapy. Before and two months after treatment, the total active movement (TAM) of the fingers and the grip strength were messured. Results:There was no significant difference in TAM of the fingers and the grip strength before treatment (P > 0.05). After treatment, TAM of the fingers and the grip strength significantly increased (|t| > 10.284,P < 0.001), and were higher in the experimental group than in the control group (t > 0.386,P < 0.001). Conclusion:Extracorporeal shock wave therapy could facilitate to improve the tendon slippage and hand function in patients with tendon adhesion after hand tendon repair.
