Objective:To analyze the effect of simvastatin combined with tanshinone in the treatment of patients with acute cere-bral infarction. Methods:The patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly divided into the treatment group (n=50) and the control group (n=50). The control group was given tanshinone treatment, the treatment group was given simvastatin treatment addi-tionally, and the treatment course was 14 d. The NIHSS ( nerve function defect degree) , ADL ( daily life activity) and the treatment effect before and after the treatment were comprehensively evaluated and compared between the two groups. Results: Compared with those before the treatment, the NIHSS and ADL scores were significantly improved in the two groups after the treatment, and the differ-ences were statistically significant (P<0. 05), and the improvement in the treatment group was significantly better than that in the control group with statistical significance (P<0. 05). The total effective rate of the observation group was 98%, which was higher than that (70%) in the control group (P<0. 05). Conclusion: Simvastatin combined with tanshinone in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction shows obvious therapeutic effect, which can obviously improve neurologic deficits and daily life activity, and is worthy of fur-ther clinical application.

Objective To observe the influence of wind-dispelling therapy on therapeutic effect of blood-cooling and kidney-tonifying herbs for chronic idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(CITP),and to investigate its immunoregulatory effect.Methods Forty-two CITP patients were randomized into 2 groups:the treatment group(N=22) received therapy of dispelling wind,cooling blood and tonifying kidney,and the control group(N=20) received therapy of cooling blood and tonifying kidney.Six weeks constituted one treatment course,and the treatment lasted 3 courses.Serum interleukin 2(IL-2),soluble IL-2 receptor(sIL-2R),Fas protein,Fas-L protein,and platelet-associated immunoglobulin G(PAIgG) levels and lymphocyte subtypes were compared before and after treatment.Results In the treatment group,14 patients were clinically cured,5 markedly effective,2 effective,1 ineffective and the total effective rate was 95.5%;in the control group,8 patients were clinically cured,4 markedly effective,3 effective,5 ineffective and the total effective rate was 75.0%.The therapeutic effect in the treatment group was superior to that in the control group(P

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the influence of cephalosporins antibiotics on cost and length of hospital stay in pa-tients underwent gallbladder calculus resection,and to provide reference for drug use in clinic. METHODS:A total of 1866 patients underwent gallbladder calculus resection were collected from 9 third grade class A hospitals in Guangxi during 2013-2014. SPSS 22.0 software was adopted to analyze cost and length of hospital stay in patients underwent gallbladder calculus resection. RESULTS:Multi-factor analysis showed that the factors which significantly affected the cost and length of hospital stay were antibiotics,hospi-tals,age,surgery types and disease species (all P<0.01). The antibiotics were divided into the subset 1-4 according to the cost of hospital stay:the subset 1 only contained cefuroxime(9454 yuan);the subset 2 contained noncephalosporins(16199 yuan)and ce-fazolin pentahydrate(17241 yuan);the subset 3 contained ceftazidime(20716 yuan),other cephalosporins(21046 yuan)and cefo-taxime sulbactam(22724 yuan);subset 4 contained cefotaxime sulbactam(22724 yuan),cefoperazone sulbactam(23688 yuan), cefoxitin(24685 yuan)and cefodizime(24698 yuan). The antibiotics were also divided into the subset 1-4 according to the length of hospital stay:the subset 1 only contained noncephalosporins (7.61 d);the subset 2 contained cefuroxime (8.94 d) and cefazolin pentahydrate(9.78 d);the subset 3 contained cefoxitin(13.39 d),cefodizime(13.44 d),other cephalosporins(14.32 d)and ceftazi-dime(14.60 d);the subset 4 included cefoperazone sulbactam(16.03 d)and cefotaxime sulbactam(16.91 d). The higher the subset numbers,the higher the cost of hospital stay or the longer the length of hospital stay;there were statistical differences among differ-ent subsets (P<0.05),while there was no statistical difference among the same subsets (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Cephalospo-rins antibiotics can significantly influence the cost and length of hospital stay in patients underwent gallbladder calculus resec-tion. Antibiotics selection canbe considered comprehensively ac-cording to local medical resources and the patients'demands.

Objective To compare the effects of 2 vascular carriers, arteriovenous loop and arteri-ovenous bundle, on inducing angiogenesis in coral scaffold of vascularized tissue-engineered bone in animal models.Methods Thirty-six adult male New Zealand rabbits were randomized into 2 even groups.In group A, an arteriovenous loop (AVL) was formed by microsurgical anastomosis at the proximal ends between the femoral poptiteal artery and vein, and placed in the circular side groove of the coral block (6 mm × 8 mm × 10 mm) .In group B, flow-through vessels bundles of both femoral artery and vein were placed in the side grooves of the coral block.All the implants in 2 groups were wrapped by a micro-porous expand-ed-polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) membrane, and fixed subcutaneously by suturing.Evaluation methods included gross morphological observations, histological examinations, India ink perfusion and vascular casting after 2, 4, 6 weeks.The density of blood vessels was analyzed by the statistical software SPSS 10.0.Results All the corals were encased by newly formed fibrovascular tissues in 2 groups.Ink-stained vessels distributed the surfaces and side grooves, and invaded the interspaces of corals.The degree of vascularization increased over the course of experiment.Blood vessel density demonstrated a significant continuous increase between 2 and 6 weeks after implantation in group A.The mean value of blood vessel density in group A (2 weeks 276.60±4.67, 4 weeks 517.20±10.66, 6 weeks 707.00 ±11.87) was significantly higher than in group B (2 weeks 153.60 ±7.16, 4 weeks 269.40±6.80, 6 weeks 279.20±6.53) (P <0.01).Vascular casting showed that in group A, significant blood vessels sprouted from all areas of the loop, espe-cially at the entrance of the arteriovenous pediele where the small tubes were densely interconnected.In group B, however, no blood vessels sprouted from the arteriovenous bundles and only some small vessels grew from the entrance and exit.Conclusions A vascularized coral model can be constructed by inserting an ar-teriovenous loop or an arteriovenous bundle, useful in vascular bone tissue engineering.The former, however, have stronger abilities to induce angiogenesis than the latter.

This study was aimed to optimize the extraction process of hyperoside from leaves ofAcanthopanax senticosusby compounding-enzyme method and orthogonal experiment. The hyperoside compound was regarded as standard and determined by HPLC. Based on the experiments of 4 factors including the enzyme amount, temperature, extraction time and PH values, the extraction process of hyperoside was determined by the orthogonal experiments and variance analysis. The results of single-factor experiments showed that different enzymes showed different effects on the enhance yield of hyperoside. The effects of different factors showed that the order of PH, neutral protease, temperature, time, pectinase, xylanase and cellulose was from strong to weak. Through orthogonal analysis, the optimum conditions were 2% pectinase, 2% xylanase, 0.5% neutral protease, and 0.5% cellulose, under the temperature of 30°C, extraction time of 10 min, and pH = 4.5. Under these conditions, the extraction rate was 1.84%. The yield was increased 107% compared with traditional process. It was concluded that the use of compounding enzyme can increase the yield of hyperoside, which possessed a lot of economic benefits.

Objective To investigate the effect of silencing Notch1 gene by RNA interference on the proliferation,apoptosis and Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in clear renal cell carcinoma.Methods The optimal segment targeting Notch1 gene was designed and transfected into 786-O cells by Lipofectamine TM2000.The Notch1 mRNA and protein were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot.The proliferation rate of 786-O cells was evaluated by MTT and the variation of apoptosis was measured by TUNEL.The protein expression level of apoptosis-related protein Bcl-2,caspase-3,caspase-9,and signaling pathway protein Akt,p-Akt,p-mTOR,p-P70S6K were detected by Western blott.Results Notchl mRNA and protein was markedly suppressed by the siRNA targeting Notch1.Treated with 0,40,60,80,100 and 120 nmol/L of Notch1 siRNA for 24 hours,cell proliferation rates were (98.51 ± 1.33) ％,(87.34 ± 2.26) ％,(64.72 ± 3.24)％,(57.68 ±3.32)％,(31.91 ± 1.85)％ and (19.27 ±2.73)％,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.01).Treated with 0,40,80,and 120 nmol/L of Notchl siRNA for 24 hours,apoptosis rates were (7.6 ± 3.8) ％,(21.5 ± 4.8) ％,(32.3 ± 3.5) ％,and (46.3 ± 4.7％),the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Decreased expression of Akt signaling pathway proteins p-Akt,p-mTOR,p-70S6K and apoptosis-related protein Bcl-2,procaspase-3 was detected,but no change in the total protein of Akt.Conclusions Depletion of Notch1 gene could inhibit cell growth and induce apoptosis in 786-O cell line.It inhibits Akt/mTOR signaling pathway by dephosphorylated.
