ObjectiveTo observe the effect of mild hypothermia on vital signs of the elderly patients with anterior circulation brain infarction (massive hemispheric infarction) and hyperpyrexia.Methods46 elderly patients with massive hemispheric infarction and hyperpyrexia within the first 24 hours after onset were randomly divided into the control group and the hypothermia group with 23 cases in each group. The patients of the hypothermia group were treated with mild hypothermia therapy (33℃~35℃). Those of the control group were treated with routine hypothermal treatment. The temperature and heart rate of all patients were measured after 10 days; the prognosis was evaluated according to mortality and scores of Neurological Deficit Scale (NDS).ResultsFor patients of the hypothermia group, the temperature and heart rate significantly reduced, death rate was significantly lower, the neurological function distinctly improved and prognosis was better than the control group after 10 days treatment ( P<0.05).Conclusion Mild hypothermia is safe and effective to elderly patients with massive hemispheric infarction and hyperpyrexia.

Objective To explore the changes of Sema3A and it′s receptor Npl in temporal lobe epilepsy(TLE)rat brain and the roles in epileptogenesis mechanism.Methods TLE model was established with male healthy SD rats,in which mossy fiber sprouting(MFS)was verified using Neo-Timm staining method.Sema3A mRNA,Npl mRNA and protein was respectively analyzed by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization in the entorhinal cortex(EC)or dentate gyrus(DG)at different time after LiCL-PILO induced TLE.Results There were Mossy fiber sprouting(7d:0.70?0.42,15d:1.50?0.52,30 d:2.20 ?0.41,60 d:2.50?0.51)in DG inner molecular layer(IML)of TLE rat compared with those of controls (P

Bio-active components from Carthamus tinctorius were separated on the basis of antioxidant capacities in vitro. The antioxidant capacity was investigated on the basis of the ability to scavenge DPPH radical, ABTS radical and reduce Fe3+ of different polar fractions. Furthermore, the chemical compounds were isolated from bio-active fraction, and were evaluated for the antioxidative effects. Five major components were isolated and identified from water extract as 6-hydroxykaempferol 3,6,7-tri-O-β-D-glucoside(1), 6-hydroxykaempferol 3-O-β-rutinoside-6-O-β-D-glucoside (2), 6-hydroxykaempferol 3-O-β-D-glucoside (3), hydroxysafflor yellow A (4) and anhydrosafflor yellow B (5). By evaluating and comparing the antioxidative effects of different fractions and obtained compounds, the results showed that water extract displayed significantly high antioxidative activities and 6-hydroxykaempferol glycosides and quinochalcone C-glycosides were found as main contribution for antioxidant property.

Objective To explore the regulatory effects of hyd ro gen sulfide (H 2S) on hypoxic pulmonary hypertension and pulmonary vascular rem odeling in rats. Methods Twenty-four rats were divided into 3 groups: control group(n=8), hypoxia group(n=8), and hypoxia +NaHS group( n=8). After 21 days of hypoxia, the mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) wa s measured. The weight ratio of right ventricle. left ventricle +septum (R/L+S r atio) was measured. The microstructure and ultrastrcture changes in pulmonary sm all arteries were examined. The contents of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and Bc l-2 protein expressions were detected by immunohistochemical assay.Resu lts Compared with rats in the control group, the mPAP increased by 45.6 % (P

Objective To explore the mechanisms by which hydrogen sulfide (H2S) regulates collagen metabolism during hypoxic pulmonary vascular structural remodeling. Methods Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group (n=6), hypoxia group (n = 6) and hypoxia+NaHS group(n= 6) H2S content in plasma was measured with spectrophotometry. The expression of collagen I was detected by immunohistochemistry. The expression of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1) mRNA was detected with situ hybridization Results Compared with hypoxia group, H2S content in plasma increased significantly and the expressions of collagen I and TIMP-1 mRNA in pulmonary arteries were down- regulated in hypoxia + NaHS group. The H2S content in plasma negatively correlated with TIMP-I mRNA expression. Conclusions H2S increases the degradation of collagen in small and media pulmonary arteries of rats under hypoxia by decreasing the synthesis of TIMP-1, and therefore, attenuats the collagen remodeling in pulmonary arteries of hypoxic rats.

TCM higher education has cultivated a large number of high-level TCM professionals in the past sixty years.Against the backdrop of social progress in China,a system of cultivating faculty of TCM higher education has been put in place that features an organic link-up between college,after graduation and continuing education.Academic community serves as a starting point in the system.This paper mainly illustrates our understanding of academic community,life-long education through connecting the three phases and its implementation.
