Objective To explore the effects of role-reaction-relationship-resource (4R) model-based follow-up management on rehabilitation and self-perceived burden in knee osteoarthritis patients after surgery. MethodsFrom June 2018 to May 2019, we selected 96 knee osteoarthritis patients at He'nan Provincial People's Hospital by convenience sampling. All of patients were divided into observation group and control group with the method of random number table, 48 cases in each group. Control group carried out routine follow-up, while observation group implemented the targeted and individualized follow-up management based on 4R model for three months. Effects were evaluated with the visual analogue score (VAS), the score of the American Knee Society (AKS) and self-perceived burden scale (SPBS) before intervention, three days, one month and three months after intervention. ResultsOne and three months after intervention, the scores of pain of observation group (4.03±1.17) and (3.29±1.08) respectively lower than those [(4.79±1.52), (3.85±1.31)]of control group with statistical differences (P＜ 0.05);the scores of clinical dimension and function dimension in AKS of observation group were (62.36±15.71), (73.45±13.56) and (45.68±10.46), (57.52±15.26) higher than those [(56.03±14.69), (66.21±11.40) and (40.22±12.63), (50.88±13.09)]of control group with statistical differences (P＜ 0.05). The scores of emotional burden and body burden, as well as the total score of self-perceived burden in observation group were (12.94±2.33), (13.65±2.40) and (30.74±5.23) respectively lower than those [(14.03±2.55), (14.80±2.28) and (32.97±5.36)]in control group with statistical differences (P＜0.05). ConclusionsThe 4R model-based follow-up management can improve the rehabilitation of knee osteoarthritis patients after surgery and reduce patients' self-perceived burden.

OBJECTIVETo study the effect of catalpol and puerarin freeze-dried powder for injection (CPFPI), a new compound traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) preparation, on coagulability, hemorheology and NO in rats with qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome.

METHODThe model of rats with qi-deficiency and blood-stasis syndrome was established by hunger, fatigue, cold-dampness, panic and high fat diet. Coagulation time (CT) was observed by the glass method, and bleeding time (BT) was measured by tail-cutting method. The effects of CPFPI were also evaluated with prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and thrombin time (TT). HCT was measured by the electric tesistance method, hemorheology indicators were observed by auto-hemorheological instrument. The level of NO in blood serum was measured by NO assay kit.

RESULTCPFPI 65.40 mg x kg(-1) significantly prolonged CT, BT, PT, APTT and TT in rats. The viscosity of whole blood and plasma, hematocrit, erythrocyte aggregation and rigidity index, and reduced viscosity of whole blood in 65.40 mg x kg(-1) groups were lower than model group. CPFPI 65.40 mg x kg(-1) can raise the level of NO in blood serum. 32.70 mg x kg(-1) markedly prolonged CT, PT and APTT and decreased whole blood viscosity, erythrocyte aggregation index and whole blood reduction viscosity.

CONCLUSIONCPFPI has a significant effect in improving coagulability and hemorheology index and enhancing NO content in blood serum.

Objective To investigate the analgesic effects of parecoxib sodium combined with patient controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) after orthopedic subarachnoid block anesthesia surgery.Methods Two hundred patients undergone orthopedic subarachnoid block anesthesia surgery were randomly and equally divided into two groups:Group P (treated intravenously with 40 mg parecoxib sodium combined with PCEA at the end of operation) and Group C ( treated intravenously with 0.5 g tramadol combined with PCEA at the end of operation).The visual analog scale (VAS) was performed at 6,12,24,48 and 72 hours postoperatively in two groups.Meanwhile,the press frequency of analgesic pump,effective frequency,side effects and satisfaction degree were recorded. Results The VAS sore of Group P was lower than that of Group C at 6,12,24,48 and 72 hours postoperatively ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Group P showed a less number in aspects of the press frequency of analgesic pump,effective frequency,and side effects at 12 and 24 hours,but a higher satisfactory degree,compared with Group C (P ＜0.05). Conclusion Combined use of parecoxib sodium and PCEA can exert a better analgesic effect and have a low incidence rate of side effects following orthopedic subarachnoid block anesthesia.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the distribution process of puerarin contained in Zige freeze-dried powder injection in rat liver and kidney and the safety of Zige freeze-dried powder injection.

METHODRats were divided into the Zige freeze-dried powder injection group and the puerarin freeze-dried powder injection control group randomly. The liver and kidney samples were collected at 5, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60 and 120 min after intravenous administration of puerarin (26.7 microg x g(-1)) through caudal vein and detected by HPLC.

RESULTThe concentration of puerarin in kidney reached the max value of 58.12 microg x g(-1) for the Zige freeze-dried powder injection group and 71.28 microg x g(-1) for the Puerarin freeze-dried powder injection group. The value of AUC(0-2h) was 26.24 microg x h x g(-1) for the Zige freeze-dried powder injection group and 35.24 microg x h x g(-1) for the puerarin freeze-dried powder injection group, MRT(0-2h) was 0. 39 h for the Zige freeze-dried powder injection group and 0. 42 h for the puerarin freeze-dried powder injection control group. Compared with the control group, the Zige freeze-dried powder injection group showed a significant decrease in Cmax and AUC(0-2h) (P < 0.05), with no notable difference in peak time tmax and MRT(0-2h). The two groups showed no obvious difference in tmax Cmax, AUC(0-2h) and MRT(0-2h) of puerarin in rat kidney.

CONCLUSIONCompared with Zige freeze-dried powder injection, Zige freeze-dried powder injection can reduce the distribution of puerarin in rat kidney, with no obvious change in the elimination of puerarin in rat kidney. It also showed no significant change in distribution and elimination in liver. This indicates that Zige freeze-dried powder injection is safer to kidney than puerarin freeze-dried powder injection.
