China Pharmacy 2007;0(28):-
OBJECTIVE:To study the effect and mechanism of cilostazol in experimental anti-bradyarrhythmia.MET-HODS:Bradyarrhythmia model of mice was induced using verapamil hydrochloride and nicotine,respectively.The electrocardiograms at different time and the heart rates of the model mice after intragastric administration of different dosages of cilostazol were recorded.The in vivo His' bundle electrogram(HBE)recordings in rabbits were obtained after intragastric administration of different dosage of cilostazol for detection of A-H interval and H-V interval,which were compared with control group(normal saline group).RESULTS:Verapamil hydrochloride and nicotine markedly slowed down the heart rates of mice,but cilostazol significantly sped up the heart rates in mice(P

Objective To analyze the antihypertensive compliance rate,drug use and complication distribution among very old hypertensive inpatients under the antihypertensive standard of 150/90 mm Hg in our country(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa).Methods A total of 409 hospitalized patients aged ≥80 years and diagnosed with hypertension in all departments of Air Force Medical Center of PLA were enrolled,and according to their clinical outcomes,they were divided into intensive antihypertensive group(106 cases,SBP<130 mm Hg),standard antihypertensive group(155 ca-ses,SBP 130-149 mm Hg)and non-standard blood pressure group(148 cases,SBP ≥150 mm Hg).The status of blood pressure control was analyze in each group.Results When 150/90 mm Hg was used as the blood pressure standard,25.9%were in the intensive blood pressure group,37.9%were in the standard blood pressure group,36.2%were in the non-standard blood pressure group.The proportion of patients aged>90 years was significantly lower in the non-standard blood pressure group than the intensive antihypertensive group and the standard anti-hypertensive group(4.1%vs 7.5%and 12.3%,P<0.05).The ratio of single-drug therapy was significantly higher in the standard antihypertensive group than the intensive antihypertensive group(46.5%vs 32.1%,P<0.05),and that of dual combination therapy was obviously higher in the intensive antihypertensive group than the standard antihypertensive group(35.8%vs 22.6%,P<0.05).The proportions of heart damage and cerebrovascular damage were significantly higher(43.4%vs 21.9%,26.4%vs 14.8%),and the proportion of complicated retinopathy was notably lower(11.3%vs 23.9%)in the intensive antihypertensive group than the standard antihypertens-ive group(P<0.05).Conclusion For very old hypertensive patients in our country,it is more sci-entific and practical to use 150/90 mm Hg as the starting standard for blood pressure reduction.Intensified blood pressure reduction increases cardiovascular and cerebrovascular damages in them instead.
