Objective Soft and hard channel minimally invasive interventions for patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage have been used for many years. A retrospective study was performed to evaluate the superiority of these two methods. Methods 122 patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage were included in this retrospective study, 64 cases in soft channel group and 58 cases in hard channel group. The clinical effects were compared; catheter retention time and complications of the minimally invasive surgery were also observed in these two groups. Results In soft channel group, NIHSS before the treatment was 18.05±7.77, and NIHSS after the treatment was 7.57±4.68. The mortality was 17.19%. The catheter retention time in hematoma puncture was (4.35±1.56)days, and the catheter retention time in ventricle puncture was (7.67±2.37)days. There were 4 cases of rebleeding and 3 cases of intracranial infection. In hard channel group, NIHSS before the treatment was 18.38±9.02, and NIHSS after the treatment was 8.02±4.84. The mortality was 20.69%. The catheter retention time in hematoma puncture was (4.07±1.49)days, and the catheter retention time in ventricle puncture was (8.17±2.55)days. There were 9 cases of rebleeding and 2 cases of intracranial infection. The differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusions Soft and hard channel minimally invasive interventions of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage have the same clinical value.

objective To explore the role of Xanthatin in the targets of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process using molecular docking method,and the effect on the target protein expression of HepG2 cells was detected by Western assay.Method Dhs,Vimentin,Snail and VEGFR3 are critical targets in EMT process,the spatial binding ability of Xanthium was evaluated by molecular docking method,compared with the corresponding endogenous substances:nicotinarnide adenine dinucleotide,Acetate ion,flavin adenine dinucleotide,and N-Acetyl-D-glucosamine.HepG2 cells were cultured,and the effects of Xanthatin of 1,5 and 20 mol/L concentrations on Dhs,Vimentin,Snail and VEGFR3 protein expression were detected by Western Blotting assay.Rusult Molecular docking show that Xanthatin has obvious affinity to key factors of EMT process such as Dhs,Vimentin,and VEGF-R3,higher than that of endogenous substance;and the affinity with Vimentin was less than that of endogenous substance;Western Blotting experiments proved the virtual results.The expression of Vimentin,Snail,VEGFR3 protein was significantly lowered,and the expression of e-cadherin was significantly raised.Conclusion The influence of Xanthatin to key factor e-cadherin,Vimentin,Snail,VEGFR3 are obvious,Which is likely to be a potential target.The results of computer virtual experiment and Western Blotting have certain similarity.Molecular virtual docking can pre hint the potential target factor.

Objective:
To investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of hesperetin (HSP) on lung damage induced by paraquat (PQ) in rats by detecting the levels of inflammatory makers in rat lung tissues.
Methods:
140 Wistar male rats were randomly divided into negative control group, HSP control group, HSP control group, paraquat model group, pirfenidone (PDF) positive control group, and 100, 200, 400 mg/kg HSP treatment groups. All groups were exposed to 50mg/kg paraquat by oral gavage except for the negative control group and HSP control group. After 24 hours, the rats in each group were given drug intervention once daily. 10 rats were randomly sacrificed at 7th day and 28th day after exposure to paraquat respectively. 3 rats were randomly selected from them and HE, Masson staining were used to observe the pathological changes in the lungs of each group. Each group randomly selected 6 rats at two time points to detect the levels of TGF-β1, TNF-α, IL-4, IL-10, IL-1β and IFN-γ in rat lung tissues.
Results:
Histopathological examination found that the lung injury were reduced in the rats of PDF positive control group and all HSP treatment groups. Compared with the negative control group, the levels of TGF-β1, IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-4, and IL-10 in rat lung tissues were significantly increased (

OBJECTIVETo summarize and discuss the lapsus and the treatment of the lumbar intervertebral disc herniation using percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD).
METHODSBetween July 2002 and October 2010, 689 patients with lumbar intervertebral disc herniation treated by PELD were analyzed, including 448 males, and 241 females. Single lumbar intervertebral disc herniation were 669 cases. double lumbar intervertebral disc herniation were 19; three lumbar intervertebral disc herniation were 1. Central type in 66, side central type in 365, lateral type in 242, extreme lateral type in 10, sequestered type in 6. These cases with complications in operation and postoperation were studied retrospectively.
RESULTSThere were nucleus pulposus omissions in 5 patients and 2 patients underwent open resection of nucleus pulposus during operation immediately and the second operation was needed in 3 cases, 1 case with transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) and the others with open resection of nucleus pulposus. Two patients had nerve root injury, but all completely recovered in 3 - 6 months after operation. Spinal dura mater disruption was in 2 patients, recovered after suturing of skin wound. All 689 patients were followed up for 6 - 96 months, mean follow-up time was 33 months. Postoperative spondylodiscitis was in 7 patients, recovery after expectant treatment in 1, percutaneous puncture irrigation and drainage for continued use of local antibiotics in 4, posterior infective lumbar discectomy in 2. Postoperative relapse was in 6 patients, operated secondly by PELD in 4 and by TLIF in 2, recovery after the second operation. Nerve root induced hyperalgesia and burning-like nerve root pain was seen in 19 patients, the symptom was improved by analgesic drug, neurotrophy drug and physiotherapy. The effect of single segment PELD was not good in 10 patients with spinal stenosis, who underwent multiple segment TLIF later.
CONCLUSIONSThe complications during operation usually are nucleus pulposus omissions, nerve root injury, spinal dura mater disruption. Accordingly the complications after operation include spondylodiscitis, recurrence, nerve root induced hyperalgesia or burning-like nerve root pain. Strict indication, aseptic technique, skilled operation and proper rehabilitation exercise are effective ways to reduce complications.

Aim To explore the regulatory effect of Danggui-chuanxiong herb pair (GX) on JAK-STAT signaling pathway in rats with cerebral ischemia/reper-fusion injury (I/R). Methods The I/R injury rat model was constructed by modified suture occlusion method. After 24 hours of perfusion, Zea Longa scoring method was used to score the neurological function, TTC staining to detect the cerebral infarct volume of rats, HE staining to observe the pathological changes of brain tissues, the biochemical method to determine the MDA, SOD, GSH-Px expression, ELISA to detect the expression of NF-κB, VEGF, ICAM-1 and PAH in brain tissues, and immunohistochemical method to detect JAK2, p-STAT3, AKT And ERK1/2 expression of the brain tissue ischemic penumbra area. Results Compared with sham group, model rats had severe neurological damage, larger cerebral infarction, necrosis, edema, inflammation, disorder of nerve cell arrangement, abnormal cell enlargement, vacuole-like changes, neuron reduction and other pathologies in brain tissues. The expression JeveJs of MDA, NF-κB, VEGF, PAI-1 and ICAM-1 in brain tissues of model group significantly increased, and the expression levels of GSH-Px and SOD were significantly reduced. Compared with model group, the neurological scores of rats in GX
